only moments ago

— 6:13! she said

not 6:10 or 6:15, but 6:13
in the twilight of the evening
this was easy to miss on the canvass
of mystery, my mind sinking so lapsed

into darkness, why on earth 6:13
she must be really anal, I think
no, she cares more like — fuck it

but there, in that tiny remark
(no, I can't let this go) goes
a lifelong quest to be right, precise
— you dear fellow, are wrong: 6:13!

does my existence, my trifle, matter
as though a countdown to something else
another no action to be measured, accounted for
balanced, this and that, at 6:14 I was not
I was, in fact, dead.

REW

At bus stop
a safe grid of
comings and
leavings.

In the empty room,
the porcelain keeps
swinging
~~forth and~~
back.

I    go.
I      smack white angel’s face and before,
I     get dressed,
I    stand up,
I move,

I breath.
I lie
down on the
floor trying to
smell the stain
precisely.

A dog’s barking
blurs into the
morning fog as
if flashbacking
wine – soaked
Persian carpet.

risk-safe tattoo jet fighter bras and inverted nipples never did much for a boy with hollow pockets very little sun and nowhere to get an epidural of sophisticate-free sex looking up pathological in English, meant that girl any girl, on the ladder would do, makes no odds my head is full of rattlesnake breakfasts, torment all I see is detail, lop-sided orgasmic gumbo — Tomas
