Pillow Book, I want it.
Secrets in the teeny tiny.
Choking sensation in the solar plexus area. Driving sensation I interpret as a need to be alone. Desire for code, the secret code that expresses how and what I understand. My children are not fat and both are bald. That’s over that’s enough. Embedding secret line breaks in the work. Choking sensation in the lower throat. Anger’s like a cavity in the chest.
Honors. No one knows. Sheer beauty of the uneditable. Sheer beauty of the secret. Sheer mudra, sheer blankets, shearling. The objection, the object model, the white suit.
Hello goddess, hello Godfrey. Here’s a secret: Karen Finley telling me the writing seemed like psychotic ranting, I should cut it back to one page. I felt like she had requested that I violate the “Form.”
Sunlight. The train lumbers in the opposite direction. Commuters. My secret commutation.
Conceit. Can’t wait to hear the dharma talk on that.
That there could be a secret path
and I be on it.
Yoga isn’t so bad
Sam is awesome
I am paying off some debts
without killing myself
I hope.
Restful inconsistencies
emerald generalities
tawdry perpetuities
garbanzo beans and
phony etymologies
a bunch of garbage
Failure rate;
how to increase it
Shake it out the funny duck
the incompetent
with hair of feathers
Fragile—something
she cannot avoid
Secret secret sad sad secret
secretions
I’m attracted to the impenetrable secret
I’m not a poet
and I hate poetry
I don’t write poetry
I write along its edge
like crocheted fringe
Lisa is subdued. The whole group is almost utterly subdued. They don’t write emails, they don’t open pdfs. We don’t bond or do I just mistake what bonds there are for something else?
Lisa provides a small spread of snacks each night. Sometimes hot cider, occasionally beer. Food is good.
The cats fight. Harry, Mina, and Bela. They frequent the poetry salon and get pet, as long as they’re relaxed and noses kept out of the food.
People have busy lives. They interfere. I try to gauge how diligent with my homework I should be. I produce some writing I guess each and every time. I’m eager to contribute also eager to unlock the secrets.
