in memory of my repressions
For goodness sake, needles in the day’s tire, some
reprint bonging out of someplace unfinal; i’m always
ankle-deep in impulse borrowing. So intent on the
nail for hanging up the picture, it
kills the moment when i first look at the picture!
Overall, the humid leaves hang heavy like a screen.
Hatchway leading back into the place where
(arrant) i sail back into yr eyes.
Rapidly developing a “life science.”
At the end of the day, the day starts.
[Frank O’Hara was born on June 27, 1926]

poem for June 23
durative, in city
As if then, being lost
not there, as in return, handling time
negativity belandscaped tool bent form
as if then. magnify docudrama drop add list
as if across a lovescape handled
kennel (not ash bin) a mine falling strong, as in caring
handle on the past world while passing
mild insistence, torn burnt cloth.
Any time cracks, closed in, in shivering armies
then is now in a ghost eagle
over to you, hiding within sight of words
very held; & then, waiting recalls:
as if then, being lost, furtive; holding indwelling
[Anna Akhmatova was born on June 23, 1888]

It Came from Wednesday Nite !! part 1
Here are two APG collaborations, written this year at the weekly meeting .

hearing him expire
blind says nothing follows in a slight no! it flips
above, hovering in reddish circles, a corpse
chlorinate across the boy hair lines so
this meaning says change supercharge underchange
onto into over and over
my lovely Wild but Mild Ones
each south flag point swoops as here that meta-arctic sea
northerly, southerly but misunderstood somewhere in between
densities intensify our weather’d minds
a poly meets a thunder which gives many to one to how? to
understanding in this time, this space, this
opening so we can follow our discomfort
into what we don’t know as an imp simple one hill a bump
& we’ve made up the lines... no control
who fly up to their falling apartness
to teach is to learn, a one time in the city of ask : to teach;
a downpour with a “you” in the middle of it
said to my friends “here” or “go this way”
wanting is fair ... to a non am i watching you ? fair tease quantum
to search in the nethers or nevers or there
a copy of three jobs in one.

^^^^^^^
Waffle House Mitternacht (hear it)
the dog shakes in a busy nonsense of night
directions for being lost are cool as [tool bag]
the far out south
here across from the park mine fields are
your fields [feel sag], aimed like stray words in the rags
screamed out from rattled discs
yes,
dusty cable cars, buster,
jumbled liar---robust hussy
on the pomengranate highway,
managerial failure hops [creepy homebody]
hops three more
snares. the log aches with
*y
long lost grogg*
text as hind leg grips load
as wasted on the road; near these waffle fling slush currents
there are wild lick mashers to fling instead of
wall folding [bibble bout]
how you gonna wink when a club
flashes you into jumbled truth readings ?
the fire place the water time;
hi, ma, hi, am i ham?
or am i mahi mahi? stop itching,
this place is laced with dit hittles
um.

2 poems by Mark
there are sound files below for these two poems; you can follow the text while listening--mp
^^^^^^^
portrait of James Sanders as The Ghost of Sex Change Operations Past
"dog guess us everywon"
,momentum is tomorrow's starting picture of Who as an indicted surgeon
slow as armpit framing print angle of
,relational says as anomaly rainbow or a scream enjoined as wait powder-room sausage mix
. the parts are entirely with randy underlining a clamber
;day scabbed over in a complete convenience
a store where maybe there's a sprint to accost
)cytoplasm is in the hearts a limelight replace with a dab of pang in mirrors
jousting at windmills is a windfall an iodine power to clip
,to the powder room the might that equals meat
or quash in rainbows of pits and pantyhose
,not all the minds when you accumulate hurts replaced with change on the inside
partly to be continued is a male participle unrerodded
or wrapped across & unrerecorded
,play it again Job
--suction cups and rainbows take a hardscrabble scunner at this is the rainbow scabbed over completely
famous as to squash is a scuttlebutt of glimmer-bray
;day scabbed over in a complete convenience
as if the frugal mind births a buccaneer with ceilings and rain
.sincerity is the continued infra the parlance of not
in a requirement of lawless
he would never touch that spot but lipgloss glosses the old
,poem is a shimmering eddy he gets lost in
. . veined with Plexiglas underlining the wunderkind fillip
meanwhile back on the inside insider scabbed over completely
.all this way is a scunner with a pester
,i know many things you'd be suppressed a wink is a log rolled over in the wild torn
:all the power timers mean a fake of scream as rainbow is yr part in the narrative men and women
,not all the minds when you accumulate hurts replaced with change on the outside
:all the power timers mean a fake of scream as rainbow is yr part in the narrative when and minim
, . they scrabble back in their own backlog fall totaling
sincerity doesn't hurt so much as convenience pits
together like the grown-ups unbearded at a simple slacker date promised to continue scabbing over at Manuels
the manuals contain instructions for mirrors
,relational says as anomaly rainbow or a scream enjoined as wait unquickly powder-room sausage mix
flack is the crisscross acrobatics wounded person
,so they could be in vain with plucked glass
across the anomaly of the ready rain parlance cool fast food ungreement
,replaced with underlining
since rain is ready for the hearse with the mirror you can live better with their exclamation points
than garroted in a garret
dickens of a slump of an ent in a grove
watery lucid flares bored
.link up w yr inconvenient mirror anomaly catching up w you
, split fingered sincerity so the hush-hush cd. grow up
,momentum is tomorrow's starting picture of Dickens as Santa with bulimia & loggerhia
all the way into the suction cups that've scabbed over incompletely like a hardnosed Spartan @ the beginning of the circus
all the he's have now become shend and the she's become hard
,and partly the readied hearse with the mirror on the ceiling is waiting for a montage of sincerity & rainbows.on the inside like a cloth bag of argot juggling yr screams

poem for June 19
Nathanael West
not these places, consumed by dryness
and it's like dust defied--or dust deified
truth in the screech of the brakes
handholding across empty rivers
any point where you focus is poverty:
noir gets into the shadow-tracing-paper
at this one scrapped place ya got words
even-handed, leaving caring behind
landscape non see; slip into the see
when shrieking it's a lucky count
even-handed, getting caring into stuttering--
sun kills shadow, shadow the sun: a
truth in the screech of the brakes
(on June 19, 1934, Nathanael West published A Cool Million)
