i.
venus, goddess of
love, makes war
in her transit
a thousand drones shoot
like stars in midnight skys
new hopes for space racers
with new mccarthies to obey
what strange moonlit navigation
what the theory what the practice
that might break this trans
itory mission / class against class
cut through the waves that
break on stolen shores
new ships buoy by
byond purchase
ii.
counterflesh
explodes and dances
no///bodies come together
to a rhythm of struggle
and
iii. (for avery)
rain croaks down drain out
side window like a frog
croaks as it breathes. your breath
ebbs and flows swells and
falls against me in our bed
centre of the world whirl
pool of the world rain
flows round our basement
room. today has brought
floods tomorrow will break
river banks we eddie
ebb and flow in
leaping dreams.
