Your Diagnosis:
"You have a poetic sensibility and an ability to see beyond the day to day. You often seem to be living in a higher realm, or to be not-of-this-earth. Occasionally you imagine interior lives for friends and associates that are near-complete fabrications based on your fears or hopes for the future. You are often not aware of your own feelings. You have a strong sense of right and wrong, and because of this are often disappointed. Despite what can sometimes be a destructive inward-turning anger, you are very gentle. You are sometimes a bit out of touch with the ebb and flow of modern life. If your behavior is out of synch with your moral values, a severe psychic disturbance can result. Because connectivity is so important to you, you can become quiet and sulky if you feel that others around do not understand your point of view."

Stray Notes Re. American Pugilism
1.
Two months before
I came into the world
Larry Holmes weathered
Ken Norton's blows
and thus beat him.
2.
When I was about one
month old Muhammed Ali
persevered and scrapped
to overcome skinny-looking
Leon Spinks, who had won
their first contest.
3.
Remember Charles Bronson's
busted hands in "Kid
Galahad," where the King
breaks into a quivering
song about home before
knocking out Sugar Boy
Romero and getting the girl?

Night Depository
The reenactment
showed the citizens
were sitting ducks, done-in
by the pyroclastic flows
In the blink of a cowering
eye, fallout of a drastic
miscue, one of many
ways to go
///
Came lymphing down
the home-stretch,
She put us through paces,
Shaker woodwork
and shape-note singing
or call-and-response
endurance anthems:
Troubleshot with
dyspnea, waived and
wavering in cold, star-
less blue curtains
A ways to go
The Quickening
not yet arrived
"There are [still] many
species of biting flies"
And the night hedges
maybe after every
seeming yes or no
showed the citizens
were sitting ducks, done-in
by the pyroclastic flows
In the blink of a cowering
eye, fallout of a drastic
miscue, one of many
ways to go

A pre-fab funicular

THE MOON IS THE NUMBER 18, by Charles Olson
is a monstrance,
the blue dogs bay,
and the son sits,
grieving
is a grinning god, is
the mouth of, is
the dripping moon
while in the tower the cat
preens
and all motion
is a crab
and there is nothing he can do but what they do, watch
the face of waters, and fire
The blue dogs paw,
lick the droppings, dew
or blood, whatever
results are. And night,
the crab, rays round
attentive as the cat to catch
human sound
The blue dogs rue,
as he does, as he would howl, confronting
the wind which rocks what was her, while prayers
striate the snow, words blow
as questions cross fast, fast
as flames, as flames form, melt
along any darkness
Birth is an instance as is host, namely, death
The moon has no air
In the red tower
in that tower where she also sat
in that particular tower where watching & moving
are,
there,
there where what triumph there is, is: there
is all substance, all creature
all there is against the dirty moon, against
number, image, sortilege---
alone with cat & crab,
and sound is, is, his
conjecture

Scenery
I always eagerly search
the index of a new book
to find a name I cherish,
and then I go to the last
page on which that name
is mentioned to see what
memorable thing might
have happened at that
vanishing point.
...
A woman's body, cropped at the shins and seen in profile, leans to the left,
that is, forward. She may or may not be falling, and her slack face suggests
either sleepiness or the thrall of some sedative. A man stands right of her.
He is dressed in a tailored-looking suit. His arm is extended out toward the
woman, almost touching the small of her back, though if she is falling, it does
not seem likely that he will have any real chance of catching her. The woman
appears to be wearing the man's beige rain-coat. It is oddly draped, hiding
her body. The still-frame fades smoothly in and out, according to a precise,
automated sine-wave pulse: the image surfaces from the darkness, slides
across, on a temporal curve, an apex-point of brightness, and then immed-
iately becomes subject to a steady dousing. Correspondingly, the screen is
only caught in total blackness for an incalculable moment before the illumi-
nated forms emerge again. The moment fades in and out like that, for hours.
...
(In any event
if an object sees action
it under-
goes some portion of
said event.)
