My Name is Your Daughter

Love destroys value
always & in a new exploitation genre
The only secret is the one you keep from the public
for complying with the police
your sentence is reduced
CSI Miami surrounds language
But it will only surrender to the cast of the
original CSI (better lighting)
You were forced into something I could never have.
This is the genius of self-humiliation.
I'm ready for my close-up, language.

Instead

Instead, already yellow, the
urine hits it again.
What happened in the name of evil?
I like the way - you talk it appeals to me.

You Light Up My Lie

Did you stage the utterance?
I'll teach you to stage the utterance.
I'll teach you to stage the utterance.
Do you know the lover at work?
Can we see the lover at work?

It doesn't take much to fall asleep.
This is a modernist discourse,
Similar to the rump in advertising.
I think you understand the meaning of music,
I think I'll accuse you of understanding the meaning of music.

Gentrification Finally

I'm not even from the place I don't want to be from.
You came here to call me by name
But I actually thought my name was you suck.

I built a distopia out of John Lennon & Yoko Ono.
It felt good to keep you from it.
It felt good to kill them both.
They deserved each other.

The honeymoon isn't over but
I had to hide the hashish in the woods.
I'm not going to lie in bed
at night & make you a moving diary

I used to be over there.
I approved of one of these countries.
It's no big deal
Thank you for helping me.

I couldn't be more surprised.

You may say that I'm a
dreamer but only in the
sense that I fall asleep
and think about having sex
with people.

There's something horrible that
rubs up against disavowal.

I’m willing to change what I believe to get what I want

0.5 Oh no another nature poet
Translate for me something
that you hear from amnesia
to synesthesia: stuff I ate
is very specific about what
it’s doing to me right now

We’ve been told to wait here
in the garden
for language and our other
possessions but the list
of our possession sound like voodoo

There’s a trick to making music
called liking music. I don’t
want to hear the rest of my
theories #2.
