FOR SAUGUS, LYNN, & GLOUCESTER

Today is my out of the womb day it comes boxing a year out

I am in the third Zodiac

the invisible creatures are with me

the ladies of my love-life

stay with me in their circumnavigations

the good & the bad go with each

the middle our torsos are, balancing both

on this day the gift a druid

gave me of my Muse some were not ready for

a drop of that tincture in a clay cup changes all that juice

the undeveloped pulling down olympian rain quarreling with the hailstones & melting them

the magnet of a town at my vitals

& the secret clues of that waternmusic

the rosevita nueva of my summers the unsolid object the eye of each is

that time of the poeta the rockingchair & kitty

& the marriage sapphire that launched us on a ship of light

the agent tyros initiating scenes

the typhoon of transmutation sucked up

the miracle in the sounding bell of bone

the unprepared drowning in the passage to the unforeseen

(mosquito eyes

have fly-shit verses on their windows

astigmatism of the spleen lying about a shaman

forgive them for that abortion art & falsifying their homework)

the women-men & the men-women who have surmounted the differences centering & sanctifying

as I do every second of my sojourning

a spoke & the hub & the wheel rolling the wonder-works

buzz gnats or gypsy moths spitting against the nor'easter

the synthesizing of the News

lacking that brain rot & fueling crises triumph

some have the enemy working within these are my friends my poverty enrichen

over the border are ways with fishes & shoes

the far away know of, the near is estranged from

only the divine Sun

keeps the powers of the Negative at half mast

even the body is loaned

& its wisdom you have been robbed of is not for selling

what is made with the substance has a shadow or slides back into the conditioning Dark

he is writing a piece of that untiming she is hi on the sum of it

one is changing the parchment with it

another is the axis to the open air religion of loving

death to Bossing & all forms of authority 0 insighters & probers of the Here
