Poetry

democratic domes and anarchical gyres

the mechanism of every second pulling you in uncountable directions. the progress of spinning in place, the trek through the same footprints you’ve worn into memory—and then you open your eyes

Self Portrait as Flash Gordon

There is no Flash Gordon, only this space
ship swiveling back and forth in an arena
of stars that are not stars but pixels flickering,
an illusion of movement.

Moonkin

my horns branch and splinter and

i don’t have it in me
to call them antlers.

When my dad & I played Tecmo Super Bowl

Tecmo / Barry was pretty good, but he couldn’t dance like the real / Barry, just like how I could run fly patterns for my dad / in our front yard but in a pick-up game even the easiest / passes bounced off my hands.

‘>GET LAMP’ and other poems

>look
you can barely see
through the dark
the boxes of baseball cards
a pink panther action figure
