(from "A Writer and a Lighter") I wanted to set fire to his eyebrows.
But he doesn't have any.
I didn't want any other hairs on his body.
So I threw away my lighter.
Instead, decided to be a writer.
I wanted to set fire to his mind at least.
(from "The Color Theory") I'd rather open my eyes, look at the light and bring the paper back which I threw it far away savor the childish splendor I couldn't understand why they were getting so upset
(from "fragments of ennui")
grains of white dust, stickily settled on the void
floundering flies, trapped in the air
red bones and damp wet soil
the black nail, cursing its own death
yellow lumps of fat, morbidly
poured into the drain
the caprice of flies and the malice of spiders
the only things that smile at us
in the void on the blade
the power of anxiety, a deadly greed that melts
the brain, among them, what blue anxiety
likes the most, air and resistance
admiration and contempt, something like love and hate,
something like the foolish youthful heart
toward a beast living only on instinct
ideas and trivial jokes
reality, illusions, delusions, ideals
compassion, denial, turning away, darkness
regret, death, loss, past, faith, distrust, doubt
an empty black mouth like the whitened
cloudy eyes of a turtle
Fire, sea, fall.
the sea, always the abject of fear
not even a handful of void
did the sea allow
(from "One Late Spring Afternoon")
A smell of grilled fish
A scent of approaching summer mixed with dirt
A tiny fly hanging on the inside of a screen door
An empty screen door, a little later when I look back at
Silly lyrics of a popular song
A flow of lethargy instead of vitality
One late spring afternoon that makes everything feel meaningful
(from "When Spring Came, the Teacup Broke")
When spring came,
the teacup broke
Tears welled up
in the wind
The wind blew
and silence fell
And the world is always
a bright day
without
shadows
Blind faith
blights us
so the face disapproved
of my death
In my last moments,
the back gradually became distant
The face
wasn't seen
The other
face was also
When spring came,
the teacup broke
Silence, wind, solitude,
nothing allowed.
(from "the red rooms")
in front of my house,
there is a street lined with red rooms
out there are the prurient
with lewd hearts
devils are ceaselessly thrashing within them,
mistaking sordid selfishness for wisdom.
(from "The Faithful Heart") Couldn't get closer to anything with staying still, so I got scared when I saw a bad poetry. At the heads of fools, gonna gather bones of peaches and throw'em, and then giggle and laugh for you sons of bitches.
(from "the most stale and old value")
what people are passionate about
is the most stale and old value
now the absolute truth left for them
is only what they hate the most
a swarm of infested maggots
over the rotting bodies
over their unpleasantly cold bodies
because
their deaths would be most immoral
