The Library of
Teotihuacán
the shopping bag of script
your louder dice than
mind boiling in your
sleep mouth blasted
focus on your
river's plastic folder
was of knives hurled off
the edge I didn't mean the
eyes blinking on a
porch your stone wheel
was an embolism in the
water scribbled on your face
will drown in the cave
Found
in Ivan Argüelles'
“Joe
and I Used to Go to the Library”,
and
“Having Climbed Both Pyramids"

eyelie
when it sees the sausage on your clothes hanger
when it sees a hand shaking behind a mirror
when it sees a thought burning on the basement floor
when it sees the barking sandwich on the roof next door
when it sees the throat compaction inside a coffin
when it sees the river flooding in a ballpoint pen
when it sees a tooth sunk in a book of prayers
when it sees a headache swims across the street
when it sees a bomb grinning at your door
when it sees the nostril expelling stones
when it sees three forks divergent on a path
when it sees a single fork turning toward your face
when it sees the padlock floating in your coffee
when it sees a linty mask covered with eyes
when it sees you lie in a twitching closet

gugun
a floating gun spelled your face in the wake
a knotted gun spit and sank in the soup
a flowered gun closed its eye and slept
a misty gun named a bee and circled
a throated gun chewed the dice and understood
a mirror gun opened the fridge and coughed
a tower gun lay on the floor and swirled
a wooden gun splintered and burned in the attic
a liquid gun shaped your leg and ran
a written gun folded a shirt and belched
a paginated gun shit on a sheet flapping in wind
a boiled gun opened the door to shed its skin
a nasal gun was turning its knob and singing
a suit of gun plundered the closet full of ash
a tree of gun counted a bird in the sky
a frozen gun thought of an exploding glass of beer
a voice of gun crawled over the floor and
talked to the shoes under the bed

easy to say your laundered name when you forget it
easy to cross the street when the sky empties its eyes
easy to climb the steps when the car's on fire
easy to fire the gun when the lake rises to your face
easy to comb your arm when the window breaks
easy to break a leg when lunch walks in your mouth
easy to dry a log in the attic covered with ants
easy to tear your shirt when the trees are boiled for soup
easy to paint a photo and bury the mirrored frame
easy to drip and cough when the shadow returns
easy to grind the faucet when the fridge lights up like a torch
easy to blow your nose and number the rings you've lost
easy to think the mattress where your dream forgets its socks
easy to count the sky where the aspirin sleeps
easy to take it easy when the phone stops ringing in the room next
door

mumurió
se murió con su cara en una flor de lluvia
se murió con tres monedas de caliza en la mano siniestra
se murió con un zapato sin lengua en el regazo en llamas
se murió con los dedos entrelazados con otros dedos de aire
se murió con dos máscaras de pelusa y una de hojas
se murió con una sábana invisible escrita con la letra “O”
se murió con la camisa de tocino llevada al revés
se murió con un martillo en un cubo de aceite y hormigas
se murió con el basurero pleno de uñas de oro
se murió con la vista plantada en un túnel por debajo del agua
se murió con la planta de su pie derecho en un ojo
se murió con la planta izquierda en una oreja
se murió con la boca vacía que pronunciaba “viento”
se murió con unas tijeras de caucho en el bolsillo trasero
se murió con cinco llaves y una docena de huevos de aspirina
se murió con un libro empapado en los calzones de raíces
se murió con una pluma en la nariz que explicaba por fin la nada

For Chris Wells
The dream of a lake surrounding a
lake is the dream of a fried egg
resting on your face; the dream of
the fried egg is the dream of a
fork swirling in the bottom of a
well. If you continue to dream,
your dream of a well full of forks
will be the dream of a tree glittering
with birds which is the dream of a
bird surrounding a tree
