"write with tongue"

figure out the ground, figure of the
ground, enter the undertow,
electronic e-yes, already in motion,
imp present, out of the machine,
still trickle, sell you less cellulose,
& the cell you lose, the saft, got us
wrong from the start, we both love
women, just print the whole web
sight, red eye form, just slip it
in to somebody else’s inbox, this
town, e-fare, vizable, free paper,
need the mechanism, cut the best
part out, a bright eye, in the
avant-garde tradition, indi\
/idual effort, now is the time
gone, why not the bp nichol
ahhhhhhhhhh?, together &
apart, no longer hear, why do
you think they call it a
photo copier?, one pay jointly,
redouble not readable, a
copy connection, a side-channel
one that bypasses, get back
above the medicine line,
some sort of velocity happen,
what we have out, no time to
get into, power take off, all
this old letterhead into art,
a record of another place &
time, not involving too much film,
hey that’s supposed to be me,

gouging away at the paper

a little too easy, that’s it?, say ving,
material promotion, a hundred items
, cut out and save, write with tongue,
it is not material, they even spelled
your name right, book trance for
option, use this space, illogical
consequences, different waste of
going about things, a heart sees?,
saeors, everybody wants a pairodox,
a fence for which, she’ll & shall he
an ocean, separation of self &
other, the paprika portion,
dancig, ispo, lay die, even the
giants, you call that a map?,
edge crumpled, when is a penny
not a penny?, backish, more than
we needed to know, you have been
discharged, this piece of paper
has an eye ess be ‘n number,
no shrink wrap, a lovely way of
putting the ugliness, already
being, mail eye fee mail body,
that was the previous, show
us the difference, what happened
in between?, still ex©iting,
stayin’ on it, heart’s disruption,
the w)hole text, soundz in tents,
i am am i?, see the said?,
accrue cuts, orange afterimages,
have this again, eye have bin
meaning, the dividing line,
one persons garbage, junk
literature, almost too hasty,

"Property is Condemned"

now we are in a position to fall, now we are in a position to rise,
fort mick, you don’t need no silicon to calculate poverty, which
way is time going now?, employee identity synchronization, the
scene of the collapse, tafluck, we’ll even pick up your taxi fare
home, good rid dance, you’re out of there, i couldn’t spend the
money fast enough, buccal cavity, ujjuma, how are you going to
pay your bills?, i hope she doesn’t look like that, body coat, insani
you were in the bush, it’s saturday everyday, cimex, i don’t have c
cooties, meat memory,

"this text is not trying to sell you nothing"

throw yourself into the sea, this text is not trying to sell you
nothing, temporary heat, the tell-tale give-away, merryline, we
don’t even bother visiting websites anymore, you know it’s not art
but, what all is always already getting lost, stare at the blob
long enough, still boo, we are moving forward, maybe put a stop
to the insanity, act with nickel, iconic toner, toiletpaper smile,
just ignore what you can see, there is no spellcheck on this
device, by way of saving, don’t give me that ‘art’ bullshit!,
other directions thankfully, represent it as art, if it’s only
temporary why do you insist on writing it in permanent ink?,

"xittix"

nothing to keep your demons
at bay, up in the blues, xittix,
we went and got a lot of books
together, purple delta, yuppuy,
your balance is broken, who’s
got the shit happenin’, the merest
sliver of text, yobo, smash the
remote control, maybe you need
the alcohol to keep you sane,
the dangling appendage, sar tech,
health card eligible, the receipt
for mogumbo number, a big
bottle of prune juice,

"produce poetry on work time"

leo eight, rusi, fight intellectual
discrimination, a love leather,
melanthe, what did you do with
your last twenty dollars, two
doors down, literally a barrel
containing crackers, nasty gym,
produce poetry on work time,
strip with a tick, dish fillet
on pink sauce with mushrooms,
paper means nothing to me,
young tongue, came and went,
way back in what year, never
even knew, are we going into the
maze or out of the maze,

excesspool

marginal memory, error eureka!,
know buttons, surprise knowledge,
easification, writing bee, not even
odder, incertain other, sure enuf
a bridge over the river of
forgetfulness, what would we
propose as an alternative?, less
eye more ear, our convictions,
expecting earthquakes, freedom
versus privacy, afford to keep
the box open, f-wrench, subcorp,
explode thru, near south,
shrinkwrap this!, the exact
numb skull, already chinese,
why not just draw a map?, save
one of the bricks, when its a
one cent, soiled not dirty,
come oh soul, sprinkle star,
audiovisualpo, too eff’n’ eff-
icient, heart seize?, fess up
event, fold out of sight, print
on, library burning, nineteen
ninety-what?, something
happening now, libidinal
block/ages, stamp imp pede,
eye ain’t what eye ain’t,
verging on urge, holding off
& on, exactly advocating?,

antisocial media

is this a work of art or a bit
of advertizing, now nothing
comes to you, a bit of paper
removed from the book, first
glass post, your claim to fame
is that you had a photo on
jones soda in ninety-six, lo
go, a were, philking,
kanchenjunga, busy being
broke, the financial fall,
the financial climb, the
financial fade, only put
ten on it, the flick was,


it’s too hot for art, space
has a tendency to get
stuffed, do we really need
a vacuum cleaner,

"poetry is so embarrasing" [sic]

half the text is missing,
a quarter of the text is
missing, how many copies
before you have an issue,
semi-aridite, imppish, poetry
is so embarrasing, for
valentines day i gave you
a dollar, now i’ve only got
seventy-eight cents in my bank
account, a little phrase
that came to you out of the
blue, all lines say discipline,
e.x.p.e.r.i.m.e.n.t., back when you,


throw yourself into the ocean,
links sausage to golf, phrase
has been removed, greenmail
dot, transissue, we need some
grub, thirteen thirty-one,
stationary in quotation marks,
saint ymie, wisantigo, when we
were four, you had a chance
to write a memo, saint
ernutation, where did you get
the twenty bucks from, in
and out of the machine,
when did you first begin
making marks on paper,
