UCHE NDUKA
Shuffle Beige: Extracts continued from previous page
hold my beer
while i frenchkiss your husband
***
a bow string got pulled
let go
got pulled let go
***
let's swim to the brains of minarets
swim up, up, up, up
***
we have no modesty left
a seasoning lust is
the weight we're pulling here
***
the new swimmers
are free of jibes
they make a grab at grace
***
looks at me adjusts my locks
my worry won't make
a revenantal dent on the universe
***
burnt doughnut
thumbprint
bottle tops
flameline
Operation Zebra mindset
***
you crossed the dognosed cobble
a hiring for his feast
i can hear you pumping the blues
***
speak,red peppers,speak
speak,red peppers,speak
speak,red peppers,speak
***
in mid-flight
are those songs with eyes
the lightflash of blacktalk
***
that we wield
the obliquity of navigators
that we wrestle
the staccato NO of vigilance
***
a crow's nest awes me
like the chatter in crawlspaces
do not forget the patios
of birds beads twilights
***
make me no gift
of the muck
of untenanted skin
