nights 
nights
my beautiful vertigo
on the wrong side of 
the fence
frequently
with guilt
and tenderness
my thorn is your thorn
flesh within flesh
of the night of the light of the world
low-key and unstable
as gods
they decide
who's in who's out
and who's not not

Casey Bush - 1 early`80s & 1 2015

Old Man Scrubbing Graffiti from the Library Wall

Enraptured progenitor of consensus

What mushrooms ring your tree?

What faded flowers do you wear in your hair?

                What possibly can be learned from poetry

That isn’t already written in the lines on your face?

Sacrifice the firmament in the name of revenue

                Lower the skies until all panoramas collide

Drink from the river until it runs dry

And then retreat to a mountain top citadel

Where pious folk seek desolation

Where men of granite tremble before thunder

And their women weed gardens without crops

As Splendor is superior to Veracity

As latitudes will continue to meander

As there’s no arrogance that can prevent erosion

All you need to know is in your own mind

And all you need to subsist is at your fingertips

Old age can wait until it’s too late

Keep silent about tomorrow’s incandescence

Keep silent about the power of music

Gray hair on your head

Has more color than can be imagined

Without the light of day

Jake Berry

To paraphrase
the mockingbird

the devil
made fast
with a hacksaw

and carved
a masterpiece
of industry
