Ambient air testing by a certified environmental consultant detected elevated levels of benzene, methane, chloroform, butane, propane, toluene and xylene – compounds associated with drilling and fracking, and also with cancers, birth defects and organ damage. The well tested high for sulfates, chromium, chloride and strontium; her blood tested positive for acetone, plus the heavy metals arsenic (linked with skin lesions, cancers and cardiovascular disease) and germanium (linked with muscle weakness and skin rashes). It’s an atypical Velvets number, which may be why I’ve always liked it so much, a raging garage banger, or the incessant sound of banging inside a garage. Maureen Tucker’s drumming … maybe one could split minimalistic musicological hairs and argue that the above are contrasts in centrifugal versus centripetal force or something. The faster we goes the more the skin pulls from the face til the girls grow hair like Rapunzel, turn into animals or have different kinds of hairy and furry doppelgangers or twins – some of them fully visible to the outside world, some not. This is the curious threnody of integrated circuits. Its contingent vacuity is a nebulous beam – a spiral into ether gushing with waves and intoxication. There is deformation and mutation. It is the glowing confluence of a billion black suns! I live at home. Or not at all. Technical architectures: polytunnels, an inverted tree, an elm woven with cloth strips, willow branches, metallic elements. A shelter. A method. A garden. A staunch definition: all meshed up. Ruined. I wanted to design a floating home, like the Kashmiri houses on stilts: windows with no glass, families wrapped in quilts on the floor. What happens to the mermaid? “Hmmmm,” he said. Then again, “Hmmmm…” Finally, he concluded, “The question is wonderful, but I couldn’t answer. It’s too difficult for me. I’m not that clever.” Kaloki errata: Poem 1, line 9: for ‘0ush’ read ‘flush’; Poem 8, line 8: for ‘firsts’ read ‘fists’. And there we were. And we walked with this mist or fog or smoke and amidst it also and I could tell you of the other things too. A European influence. A Middle Eastern influence. A list of skirmishes. The products on the shelves, pickled by geometry. They are our chorus, fourth axis, add to zero. They set the limits, load the springs, force such place as the red moons of it drag us through each other, a kind of trading floor, a land that is all borders without volume. That’s not an assertion so much as a ruthless misunderstandpoint loaded up with epistemological weaponry. I mean, one of the reasons that the event at the Historical Materialist conference was so tremendously exciting for me is that it was attended by a great number of those Marxists whose livelihoods are temporarily or inadequately sustained by the crumbs which trickle down from the table at which Big Art delivers its flatulent graces to Our Father Who Art Dumping Chemicals Into The Villages of Nigeria. And arms trading cheap to kids who kill kindergarteners in Connecticut. In acupuncture, I reported that after an intense phone-call – in which I expressed a profound anger – I felt dizzy. So I received a liver young rising treatment. Many extra needles in the top of the head and the various webs. Like between the fingers webs. Like a fire set by a person in a tract of agricultural land on the border of Pakistan and India. Actually: my dream is: the Oklahoma labs. Where the chimps are periodically relocated, for testing, then returned to the sanctuary with its blankets and TVs and shit. Ask Anne:
I am a dollar
sign and you are a number
You are a tourist, a bomb, a bone marrow match
We are a box of crayons, I fall through your clouds
You’re no slogan, you’re far
from an empire at peace
A valentine bullet, diploid pleadings,
cretaceous
Icing teeth, smeared black ink, eyeliner, font
smudged
Automatic loveletters smeared on veins
My face was hacked
Is so dry, can’t be felt, is so red
Your demon accusers, your fear’s font, mango
pockets
You’re like the AT&T people, or Santa Claus
on Prozac
Thistle, this is why you’re
fat: because the stars won’t go out if you slap them
This sadness has no mayonnaise, and this
sandwich will never end.
