Doors Miscellaneous Poems From Drywater IN THIS DIM CAVE In this dim cave we can go no further Here money is key to smooth age. Horses, givers of guilt. Great bags of gold. I want obedience! We examine this ancient & insane theatre, obscene like luxuriant churches altars. I confess to scarvess cool floors stroked curtain The actors are twice-blessed before us. This is too serious & severe. Great mystery! Timeless passion patterned in stillness. SEX FOR YOU Sex for you was thread which binds us even now on this pale planet. To the poet & cover-girl, photo in color, to armies that join, out on a desert, & to Samson & all his generals bound quiet now w/ exotic arch-angels of dusk, in Sumarian & N. African slumbers. The bazaar is crowded as dancers thrive. Snake-wreaths & pleasures. I take you to a low cave called "Calipah". STAND THERE LISTENING Stand there listening you will hear them tiny shapes just beyond the moon Star-flys, jarts, dismal fronds stirring ape-jaws striving to make the morning mail call Cry owl. Hark to the wood-vine. Suckle-snake crawls, gnawing restive I know you. The one who left to go warning. Wishless now & sullen. Transfer deferred. Steal me a peach from the orange tree grove-keeper She fell. What are you doing w/ your hand on her breast? She fell, mam. Give her to me. Yes, mam. Go tell the master what you've done. They killed him. Later. Going up the stairs handcuffed to his cell. A shot-gun blast Behind the back. UNTRAMPLED FOOTSTEPS I Untrampled footsteps Borderline dreams Occasion for sinners alive if it seems given to wander alone at the shore wanton to whisper I am no more Am as my heart beats live as I can wanton to whisper faraway sands II Now come into my pretty isle My weary westward wanderer Faraway is as it seems & so alone shall shelter Come along unto my sails as weary islands go prosper merry as I went I shall no more the sailor Shall I ho the sailor III Where were you when I needed you? Where indeed but in some sheltered Sturdy heaven; wasted, broken sadly broke & one thin thing to get us thru IV Urchin crawl broke spenders bleeders all brew North stained lot he was lost out on an aircraft high above long awkward brewer's shelters breed this ugly crew our poisoned jet god get us love & get us speed To get us home again love Crippled by people cut by nothing Public housing the incredible damage can be cured V She's my girl friend: I wouldn't tell her Name but I think you already know her Name is Square fire insect marble saffron intro demi-rag in flames it's the same game whether you call it by her real name VI She lives in the city under the sea Prisoner of pirates prisoner of dreams I want to be w/ her want her to see The things I've created sea-shells that bleed Sensitive seeds of impossible warships Dragon-fly hovers & wavers & teases The weeds & his wings are in terrible fury |
