angel smolder
my wife with friends the devil took her north
well hexed by now so doggo baches it
with me gas fire woodswalks laundry pobiz
reading Alice Notley la la love her
waning light & pubic grass i've limped
to sixtyfive still trying hard to leave
a record // smoke hued angel asks is this
the poem or notes to fake the poem fair question
let's say here & now this bank & shoal
they're one the same allusions dog me flights
of angels sting me pestilential zest
// oh Tommy boy i love your dork i mean
your dark intensity my flame burns blue
& too cool without demon lovers you
well hexed by now so doggo baches it
with me gas fire woodswalks laundry pobiz
reading Alice Notley la la love her
waning light & pubic grass i've limped
to sixtyfive still trying hard to leave
a record // smoke hued angel asks is this
the poem or notes to fake the poem fair question
let's say here & now this bank & shoal
they're one the same allusions dog me flights
of angels sting me pestilential zest
// oh Tommy boy i love your dork i mean
your dark intensity my flame burns blue
& too cool without demon lovers you
