I watched Juno with my mom, C says, when I went home this weekend. When the woman who takes Juno’s baby finally gets to hold the baby for the first time, Juno’s step mom comes in and the woman asks her, “how do I look?” and Juno’s step mom replies “like a mother.” I cried and cried! My mom asked me when I was having babies. I said I wasn’t sure if I was having any. I think Thomas is scared what I’ll be like when I’m pregnant. Plus I’m already not very nice to Sharp Tooth. I don’t know what I’d do with a baby. Be Jealous? Probably. I hope you meet someone you haven’t met yet, C says. Maybe you’ll go to some conference for nursing and you’ll meet a girl from Canada. Those girls seem pretty nice. You would need a nice girl to deal with you. You would not want to be around me. It would wear you down and you would think, “she is right; this wasn’t worth it”.
-- I like the name Agamemnon. That’s Thomas’ car’s name. I think you would make a wonderful father. I hope to baby-sit your kids someday.
/J.G. Ballard you dead asshole -- you died today.. I don’t know you -- only your name -- only shots of a David Cronenberg movie where the sex fetished and fucked everyone’s minds and bodies / or the excerpts from short stories: the latent sexual content of automobile crashes -- James Dean, Jayne Mansfield, Albert Camus. I don’t know who Jayne Mansfield is. Fucking in cars my feel very fast. Crashing even faster. Terrifying. Sequences caused orgasm in 85 percent of trails. If only you died in one of those crashes -- only if you were assassinated by a lone gunmen -- not debilitated. Work -- created -- should destroy or die / Mourning periods of relatives in automobile accidents slightly reduced. This is the only anonymous death that matters to me -- the rest I remember names. (Megan I said you are powerful and your faces will be ahung the crowds of dying) someone once said, I hope I die before I get old. Another said, an old man is a nasty thing. 17 more than I ever wanted or needed. Black is the colour of her hair and Black is her hair. Out Out black hair. Black like a Raymond pettibond monochrome. Everything went black. Black in hallucination. Black as hallucination is speech and black as hallucination in writing, written as a dark tradition, the dark cosmos, the uncreated darkness, black and allergenic as prehistory.
Levi liked the Easter celebration. He went egg hunting . There were toys hidden in the yard too. When he found the car, he picked it up and ran off with it. HE didn’t care about the eggs anymore. Some of the eggs had money in them. Levi doesn’t know what money is used for. HE doesn’t care about money because he doesn’t know how to use it. He knows how to push a car. My family gave him candy and toys. HE doesn’t like candy much -- he likes cookies. I get to keep the Pez. I haven’t had Pez in a long time. Three flavors: lemon, chocolate, and strawberry. A bunny Pez dispenser.

Can I tell you about a dream I had last night? Jess from Gilmore Girls and I were going around killing people. We had some sort of grandiose plan that ended us killing my mother. But when we got to her place, Jess made me do everything and told me to make it look messy. Brains were all over the floor. I look up and my older sister is standing there watching me. I ran outside to hide and Jess had set a trap for me. I slipped on some blood and he hung me with a wire. I just hung there for a long time. When I woke up, my mouth was blocked and I couldn’t breathe because I’m sick right now.
Sky is a cross, the blue symphonie monotone. The unicolour Cross is the negative space -- flame-bastard two hands -- dangers sign Cross -- bootlaces steel laces whitespace -- dangerous is the crucified man, for he is crucified. Dangerous is the crucified woman, for she is a woman, and the crucifixion womanizes her. Jesus saith unto her, Woman why weepest though? Dora, the woman weeps. God speaks to me in the Desert. God threatens me there. Violence -- God is the violence -- the empty of the Desert -- the capsule of the Desert -- or God’s voice or God spoke is the bogeyman -- a rawhead and bloody bones -- the wailing bog -- Christ in amorphous sexuality. Walt Wthiman says of him: his arm lay lightly over my breast -- and that night I was happy. But Whitman did not realize the Living Oak was also Him -- or realized, taking the spray of moss, but feared -- And I realize Christina is the Oak or She is the bloody creature devouring tongues in a forbidden dream -- a dream of slippery skirt -- or she is the violence of the desert -- and all objects become myself and hers or hers or that man or that woman (the last man and woman or the first woman and man)

He’s read to settle down. I get bored of marriages. I get bored of marries. They fatten ad wolve, rocking green-eyed babies in impossible trees. The dogs howl. The wolves howl and storytell.

Yes but that is what life is. So a fuck, not a truck.

Month: March 2021
At the Limits of Unsaying
At the limits of unsaying, where multiplying words full silent, I find God and the body – my body – God becoming Body – unsayable and unthinkable – an affirmation that turns negation around on itself saying the divine unsayability, giving itself as if to be said, while eluding the language in its presence. The beautiful body is apophatic, at once overfilling and overspilling the event of its manifestation. The body the benjamin body the divine body. I like and love the body. God becomes most apophatic, most boundary-burstingly unsayable. I’m returning to the body: I’m returning to a copy of the body outside myself: my self to God.
But if submitted with resignation, not the less I searched for the unsearchable – sometimes in Arab Deserts, sometimes in the Sea moving of execution

Oh, Apostanate! That hastest death, and chaseth from the pollution of sorrow

Not by might and not by power but by my spirit – says Yahweh Saboath
Might
I murmur might softly, enmeshed in mirror nets nude nests, and I name naked: naked mind nude message. Might masts most moods, red and blue, and I beat my breast begging God safety and solace, but nets jettison my soul sonorous thunder, the thinking thinning my skin.
Power
Power punches and pushes: power pumps and pistons, packing pure lure punk, the pretty person in pink pissing on my carcass. My carcass and cask lacks power, plucked from knowledge needy knuckles striking skull after skull, and I listen violent vision. I liaison bloody dreams damn and doom, lifted into outer darkness.
Spirit
Spirit, spark the spell spelling anything: Spirit, spoil spool the spawn of letters lashed to hidden divine names, and the spirit loosens me loser closer to Adversary. Spirit, save: spirit, sage from my sorrowful saga, and I sacrifice my self to gods and God.
It is only in language that the subject has its site and origin. The language disappears. The language disappears at site and origin, and I disappear in the language. What is this language: the God language and Christina language, lost lingua and I loose tongues, and the tongue topples and twos, and I disappear in linguistic scripture.
In the world of ancient Near East, the gods demonstrated their power of the world not by creating matter but by fixing destinies: so the essence of the bara which God performs in Genesis concerns bringing “Heaven and Earth” (a set phrase meaning everything) into existence by organizing and assigning roles and functions. In the beginning, God created the Heavens and the Earth; during the beginning of God creating Heave and Earth… Perhaps as a writer, I bring nothing into existence but only organize the existing elements. When in the beginning God created the heavens and the earth was untamed and shapeless. The Sons of God sang when the cornerstone of creation was laid.
There was a musician once who came up to Miles and said: Miles, you’re my man! But that new shit you're into, I just can’t get into it! And Miles answered, Should I wait for you? My writing transforms into new shit: literal new shit, maybe! But I’m having fun for the first time in a long time. Stay there and don’t follow these motherfuckers. Bitches Brew has a kind of searching quality because Miles was in the process of discovering this new music and developing it. The writing has a searching quality because I’m in the process of discovering the writing. The underlying unity of earth, sky, divinities, and mortals – the simple oneness of the four – the fourfold – the transformed notion of the world.
All collecting was marked by curiosity, shading into credulity, and by some universal underlying design. I collect texts. I collect Books and Bibles. My Book accumulates text: the collection of texts. I admit I do not always know what to do with the texts: I struggle with the texts and I struggle with the Book. I wrestle wit hteh Book as I wrestle with God (strange repetition: acute repetition). But I am always curious about God (I who am curious am not curious about God. I am curious about God and texts, and God becomes a text: in the beginning was the Word. His specialty was repair congenital anomalies, cleft lip and palates, and club foot; he also collected medical oddities, tumors, anatomical and pathological specimens, wet and dry preparations, wax models, plaster casts, and illustrations of medical deformities. I collect Adam and Adon; I collect Adam Kadmon and dam. The Body bold and the Body brilliant. I return to my collection of bodies, bodies as texts, bodies as commonplace Books, bodies as remix tapes and mix tapes (the Book is the mix tape and the remix of the mix tape). Is this a return or a renewal? The renewal of the text. I realize at some point: I don't care if the writing is good (although I do care), but I care about the acting of writing itself as a thearpy and medical intervention. The Word from the beginning is therapeutic.
Lord, I believe; help thou mine unbelief. I believe in the Book! I believe in the Body. I believe in the Above and Below. Yahweh, help my unbelief. Such as the Father is; such is the Son; and such is the Holy Ghost. The Father uncreated; the Son uncreated; and the Holy Ghost uncreated. The Father unlimited; the Son unlimited; and the Holy Ghost unlimited. The Father eternal; the Son eternal; and the Holy Ghost eternal. And yet they are not three eternals; but one eternal. As also there are not three uncreated; nor three infinites, but one uncreated; and one infinite. So likewise the Father is Almighty; the Son Almighty; and the Holy Ghost Almighty. And yet they are not three Almighties; but one Almighty.
We’re in the most extreme and utter region of the human mind, a dim subconscious of the underworld. A radiant abyss where men meet themselves. Hell… we’re in Hell. Hell the hodgepodge and tapestry of quotations, a thin tissue curtailing the Book. I flutter these fragments: Hell fragments and Heaven fragments fragged the force and filament full texture and full tissue: my human tissue, stacked papers and notebooks.
Writing becomes archaeology. Writing becomes discovery.

Lord, I believe; help thou my unbelief. So the Father is God; the Son is God; and the Holy Ghost is God. And yet they are not three Gods; but one God. So likewise the Father is Lord; the Son Lord; and the Holy Ghost Lord. And yet not three Lords; but one Lord. The Father is made of none; neither created, nor begotten. The Son is of the Father alone; not made, nor created; but begotten. The Holy Ghost is of the Father and of the Son; neither made, nor created, nor begotten; but proceeding.
here are knives that glitter like altars in a dark church where they bring the cripple and the imbecile to be healed. Knives name: knives name naked and nude, sharp to the skin. Knives comb compact over the cusp, the curl of hair and horror. I save the blade succinct: I calm the blade cool and cold, and she glitters the girl for sacrifice. She glitters Shekinah in the dust, and the Church craves Christina. The church dark dreams diminution, the shadow and reflection of the moon, and the mirrored shine shares light, a holy healing wholly healing.
Lord, I believe; help thou my unbelief. So there is one Father, not three Fathers; one Son, not three Sons; one Holy Ghost, not three Holy Ghosts. And in this Trinity none is before, or after another; none is greater, or less than another. But the whole three Persons are coeternal, and coequal. So that in all things, as aforesaid; the Unity in Trinity, and the Trinity in Unity, is to be worshipped

End me by the edge of the Spirit: Spirit spears sword sinister, left-handed judge and justice, and I'm judged severely and righteously. I judge joined to death. Despair decides to death, a division and divide.

And As He Sat Upon the Mount
And as he sat upon the Mount of Olives over against the Temple, Peter and James and John and Andrew asked him privately… And as I saw upon the Mount of Olives I saw the Great Vision. The Book sprouted bones a siphon and its hands hobbled its own writing, a rivine ravine prophecy. The words waver Word and words wah-wah Word the Winter Wizard, and Book bastions barricade the library of light and Library of Babylon (Begin the Book of Sand. Begin the Garden of Forking Paths. I ride horses in Patagonia and the knife fights scar my skeleton. The knife fights tattoo sign and signature the name on the Book’s manuscript. Knife transforms into a printing press and Book births Bible as its Bastard. Book births the bevy of sacred scripture, salmon eggs hatching holy hour and hourly whore, harlot roving reverence among the plateaus. Book marries Woman and Word. Book marries KRYSXTRYN and Godhead.

Book marries Christ and Christina. And as I sat upon the Mount of Olives, I saw the magnificent Vision. The Book icebergs bradykinetic a killing field and killing vector that enfleshes Vision, and my Flesh finds the foam of frankincense. Book narrates nativity a null numerology, and I witness the numbers as stars in space. Christina tosses comets the cycles of numbers, the varying vibrations plotting vision in void. Book numbers generations, Adam from blood and dust, and hissed seth soothsays the serpent to salvation: the Son of Human Seth says seer Sabbath Sevi to Saturn (the New Jerusalem will forever remain a red-golden transparent antinomy glass, like stone. Antinomy anthitheses the vision negation, and Christina embraces contraries. New Jerusalem vision vaunts vaults the red-golden beer-blonde, transparent Taryn and Topaz, and the red rabbic the ramble rambul sturting stone. Numbers proliferate in golden polygons, the recurring rectangle door, den to the dungeon. Christina crows the city, every foundation a different number and narrative, the magnificent myth and magnificat myth mollering moeller and mirror.

Book marries Christina and Krystal. Over against the Temple I listen to Bob Dylan. Over against the Temple I listen to Bringing it All Back Home. The listen lances the livero ver vision, and Temple trips trances, an entrancement. I ain’t gonna work on Maggie’s Farm no more, but I work Woman with the Tempe wilderness and I dream stardew valley. The farm foils folds furious fentanyl, and Temple dopes up the ulterior and ultra to desert. I dope up Subterranean Homesick Blues and Subterranean Homesick alien, alternate and Other against the testaments and tenent, magical squares squirreling surreal, and I meet Andre Breton in the bar for a beer. I was riding on the Mayflower when I thought I spotted some land, and against land, Taryn. Taryn tunes to Temple DMT machine elves and farm sprouts sprites, spitting faeries and muck. Muck minutes missile, delirious nuptials, and I marry Sabbatai Zevi as a Torah Scroll. I marry Yakov Frank as a Great fish, the whale of Woman, and Woman weevils wood wads, splinter relics of the True Cross. Over ever iver evolves and letters the lolligag and nails, wailing and weeping wall wilderness.
I fear the page. I fear the word. I fear the vision uninhibited. I fear three-chord rock merged with the power of the word.

The Page Does Not Distinguish
The page does not distinguish between poetry and prose. Respect the page: disrespect the page. The page prays: pray the page. Jesus said, Blessings on the lion that the human will eat, so that the lion becomes human. Blessings on the Book, for the Book blasphemes and bears false witness: Blessings on the Book for the Book bands the Body and the Body becomes beard and burial (bullets for a naked nympho. Body displaces the pluck and plot purring page prayer, a between blessing, and I bicycle bipolar the pivot pitch to bifurcation. Bind the Book in Flesh: sew Spirit sockets to coptic Christina, a crostini to taste my marshmallow marrow.
Flesh blesses flesh burdens flesh bakes in the filtration of basking sharks and lobster traps Flesh boasts Flesh boats Flesh barns the red rhinoceros raising a horn of David I fashion fasten flesh facets, a form to box spur blessing bone span blessing bone saw blessing boxing ballet blisters. The blessing bruises. Christ chastises those who he loves, and my bones break under his bondage (Her profession was sex… Her specialty was any perversion a man could pay for BEDROOM STRIPPER. Jesus seduces me with his sex, a spade spit with shrapnel, and our intercourse crucifies. Our fucking cocks fire fluted flesh, flesh friction body, the phantom phallus of perversion. Flesh professes perversion, the Vision Vice and Christ violence, and the Son of Man confesses Christina. Bedroom rises the rod and rood of the Bridal Chamber, a chilling choil and coil. Certain crescents chamber, a bare back caress and crescendo. The Christ-Sophia straws strips the string to stripper, and they cast lots for his garments. Lion loops the pelican, name and peacock number, an Alchemist God’s gematria.

House hogs lion: home moans young lion Yahweh God gripped by the table of generations. Table tablets Taryn Yahweh Adam: table traps Taryn testimony, a genealogy. Lion lights House with Pelican’s blood and peacock feather flashes fire. House surrounds me hungry and home hot jazz eats the eye thrown into Hades. Hades humbles Human: Hell hangs human humility. Hell holds me in suspension: suspension as Son of Man and suspension as Human. Human hunts supernal, the supernatural flame, and the suspension holds as a repeated suspended cymbal. Cymbal shakes certainty, shush shakers slacing ecstasy. I experience the ecstatic: I vroom with vision, a racer ricercar speeding parts and permutations. Beg the Abyss for Vision, and Vision beckons, accented accordion bellows. I wander wonder at Woman, her vision my vision, and ecstasy cracks cork to Christina. Vision vines Human: ecstasy executes the Lion. Human manuscript stripes lion-leopard and leopard-lion, an ink skin swaying nurse shaman.

And Jesus Answering (Plus Adventures with Krystal)
And Jesus answering said unto him, seest thou these great buildings? There shall not be left one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down. Jesus splinters my spine a Mortal Kombat fatality: Jesus shatters my scapula the pull to piranhas. Jesus splits my skull, a broadsword to Benjamin’s back, and I barrel barrow bard. I binge on Gospel and vomit Vision, the Christian carcass. My body blays the flaying by the Assyrians. Jesus, embrace Benjamin, the embarcadero to virulent violence. Jesus, hug Benjamin, the harbor to horror face-to-face with Yahweh. Books are my friends. I like to surround myself with books, even if I don’t read them, because their presence gives me friendship. They are my friends. Jesus is my friend. What a friend we have in Jesus all our sins and griefs to bear what a privilege to carry everything to God in prayer. You’re my only God. You’re my only girl. Jesus spears a spike into my spleen, the Vampire Vision and Vampire Blues (I’m a vampire baby, sucking blood from the earth). Jesus Christ Krystal Christina: Jesus Christina Taryn. Jesus answering alienates me to anomie, and I arm angels in my apartment. I listen to Code Orange by frank Ocean and I reminisce with Krystal and about Krystal. I love Krystal want to marry her, but she doesn’t want to marry me. Nevertheless, I love her and she loves me, Krystal Code Candy Liquor, orange as the smoke-filled skies above. Ash rains as Jesus answers, and Krystal and I drink matcha in downtown San Luis Obispo. The Incredible Hulk: lemonade, butterfly pea flower tea, lavender syrup, and matcha. And I drink as Bruce Banner, green gods and goddesses a goblin market mimicking tricksters and adventures / purple petals and pupils plumbing transformation. Krystal drinks a matcha latte miming mummery, the mystery play mourning Christ mixed Krystal and Krystal renounces his faith. We eat dinner at Mama’s Meatball and I have Mama’s Famous Macaroni and Cheese (Kraft Macaroni and cheese in dinosaur shapes shoulders my childhood, Benjamin and Krystal kids the carton of Kindergarten. Krystal has butternut squash ravioli (this tastes like Christmas, she says. The ravioli rounds beats like RZA, and I dance to the broken arpeggios of Thelonius Monk. We eat ice cream at Nite Cremery. I have the All-Nighter, coffee and oreo crumbs. Night names nyx, the nearly dark and after dark, J Dilla’s drunken stutter stepdrums in drams, the Ouroborus and ordered serpent. Krystal has the Milk and Cold, waffle cone ice cream and caramel syrup (it tastes like butter, she says. Milk matures and moths: milk kines Krystal, the crisp cream churning the primordial ocean. Wilderness winds the fold as a waffle cone, a conch cobbled shoe shelter shaking rainbow shell and nativity nautilus. I love Krystal. I hope to marry her someday. I hope to marry the human race. Seest thou those great buildings Benjamin? See spurn the shore spilling blue soul and green spirit, the Adonai Absinthe: see surge the charlotte coves crave red crow and carrion, and I crack the head for healing. The healing halters holters holsters heat: heat hadron and heat hellion. Healing hodges in the drum of mushrooms, the ream rolling revelation, and in sight, revealing. In sight, healing. See this great Godhead, this grand God

The Prophet explores the language prophesied: the prophet adventures the Vision through Word uttered. The Word uttered: Christina. The language prophesied: KRYSXTRYN. The language throtted down, down to the body Taryn, her body deterritorialized and reterritorialized by the Book language, and Book always prophesied the carnal Christina: Book always utters Taryn troubling the Ocean with her tresses. She throws her tresses as tridents and rains dust on the desert. Deserts tests me Taryn to Taryn.
For There Is Nothing Hidden
For there is nothing hidden that will not be revealed, and there is nothing covered that remains undisclosed. Nothing returns nothing: nothing repeats nothing, the God Nothing and Nothing God, interlacing theism and atheism in one sign and one signal. Nothing knows the knot and I know nothing. I write nothing and nothing remains nothing. No thing no tongue the tongue taps taproot reaps rust and maquam rast No thing no tongue the tongue traps Troy the truck circular ruins nad rabbits no thing no tongue the tongue terrorizes the turquoise twist wahing horn with electric pickups nothing no tongue the tongue gashes and gushes the raw refuse of Spirit Sewage, noon wine dining and drinking, and I drink my dose of tongues. I eat tongue and lingua, no thing and no tongue, and I stomach language. I stomach language nothing and absence, the absence abscess of Godhead and Godhedge, Yahweh of Hosts holding Trinity hostage. I consume language nothing and no tongue, and I bite the blood bits of my tongue and swallow swearing shit-language and fuck-language, a corpse candle crackling algebra. Tongue nothing Taryn nothing Taryn’s tongue entangled with God’s tongue, Flesh French Kiss and Krystal kisses me flesh. No tongue is hidden: no kiss is hidden: no language hides. Hides hides the animal, the skins sheltering Adam and Eva (Never has the screen brought you a more shocking reverberation! Man’s own Creator! Can he control machines that produce people? Out of World War III… the creation of THE HUMANOIDS. Was she one of the green-blooded people? Was this monster created by an electric monster? Humanity hides Humanity: Human ides Christ Creation, each a Christ and singly Christ, my Christina. The humanoid hides the secret dagger gluing God to a high grenade, and Taryn tosses the explosive into the chalice. The chalice channels Holy Grail, bloody martyrs dispersed in the desert. She scatters humanity: she scrapes the hidden, tail bone balancing tail bone, and its ballast reveals the road. Road odes whole the revelation: Road ohms haul red apocalypse. She reveals me real and unreal, my hyperreal and superreal, the supernal and supernatural parking pelts, a few to my flesh. Her fur reals reveals flesh nakedness, a nest at my nails. The reveal vans my vision valiant, a velocity and viscosity that swells with the stick sap of the Spirit. Spirit covers me as a crest, my Adam as Day of Atonement. Christina covers me as a chasuble, my Adam Kadmon as Azazel to the scapegoat. The cover harps histilarion a hanging hug holding hospice, and covering delawares Death. Covering covers vision, and my Vision deteriorates into Desert, the dusk of dopamine and deliriants. Christina, cover my Vision: Christina, smear vision in the mass molasses, sweet scroll scatters, and the Vision broadcasts Benjamin. I understand not the undisclosed: I understand nothing and no tongue the disclosed in the cloud covering. The desert dissimulates the disclosure, and the disclosure decimates, a queer deconstruction. I dream the disclosure under deconstruction and erasure, and the dream self-deconstructs. I disappear in dream, no tongue no thing.
Excerpt from Opossums for Asia (Transition / Transformation)
Transition / Transformation: the tenor tune trap My Favorite Things, and I listen to Coltrane’s My Favorite Things. I listen and talk to Asia Rain about her favorite things like animated movies (Wolfwalkers and Kubo and the Two Strings. Did I say 2D, I meant stop motion, says Asia (and I stop in motion moving the mission in transformation. Don’t ask me about my favorites, she says. I think about the favorites like my favorite dinosaur when I was a kid (The Utah Raptor), and they show favor and flavor.
I had dough and filling left so I decided to make more perogis, says Asia. Except I lost motivation part way through and decided to make one more. So here it is, the mega perogie. New villain in Godzilla, I say, MEGA PEROGIE. It will destroy you, says Asia.
Asia often destroys me. Asia often devastates and decimates my faith, and every tenth tinctures the tunnel tin and tactile tarot draw. Asia often destroys me. Asia often deconstructs and reconstructs my faith, and every tenth tangos a remnant tamed and tank. Violence to faith, not violence from faith, and I pacify and weaken all power structures through Woman. Faith from power requires deep deconstruction and down upping and downing dowsing drowsy for Dream.
Damn, you make me sound brutal, says Asia. Aww I’m sorry. I will soften you, I say. Say something soft! Bumblebees, says Asia.
