to dddeflect at a blow the blow.

      Her two broad leaves, her valve

      opening in succulent reception

      from multiplicand to multiplier,

      her condition excellent for pleasure,

      all readies truth.17

      I strive to ddeflect at a blow the blow.

      To her flattery, I transasfixiate18 Bolivarian asperities

      at thirty-two cables and their multiples,

      hair for hair majestic thick lips,

      the two tomes of the Work, constringe,

      and I do not live absence then,

      not even by touch.

      I fail to teflect at a blow the blow.

      We will never saddle the torose Trool

      of egotism or of that mortal chafe

      of the bedsheet,

      since this here woman

      —how she weighs being general!

      And female is the soul of the absent-she.

      And female is my own soul.

      [CE]

      Primary and final stone of groundless

      chance, has soul and all

      just died, October bedroom and pregnant.

      From three months of absent and ten of sweet.

      How fate,

      the mitred monodactyl, laughs.

      How unions of contraries

      despair behind. How always the digit emerges

      beneath all avatar lineage.

      How whales go dutch with doves.19

      How these in turn abandon their beak

      cubed up in third wing.

      How we saddlebow,20 facing monotonous haunches.

      Toward the tenth are ten months towed,

      toward another beyond.

      At least two are still in diapers.

      And the three months of absence.

      And the nine of gestation.

      There’s not even any violence.

      The patient props himself up,

      and seated smears on the soothing salfe.21

      [JM]

      I think about your sex.

      My heart simplified, I think about your sex,

      before the ripe daughterloin22 of day.

      I touch the bud of joy, it is in season.

      And an ancient sentiment dies

      degenerated into brains.

      I think about your sex, furrow more prolific

      and harmonious than the belly of the Shadow,

      though Death conceives and bears

      from God himself.

      Oh Conscience,

      I am thinking, yes, about the free beast

      who takes pleasure where he wants, where he can.

      Oh, scandal of the honey of twilights.

      Oh mute thunder.

      Rednuhtetum!

      [CE]

      This 2 distills in a single batch,

      and together we’ll finish it off.

      No one’d heard me. Striate urent

      civil abracadabra.

      The morning doesn’t touch like the first,

      like the last stone ovulatable23

      by force of secrecy. The barefoot morning.

      The clay halfway

      between gray matters, more and less.

      Faces do not know of the face, nor of the

      walk to the encounters.

      And without a toward the exergue may nod.

      The tip of fervor wanders.

      June, you’re ours. June, and on your shoulders

      I stand up to guffaw, drying

      my meter and my pockets

      on your 21 seasonal fingernails.

      Good! Good!

      [CE]

      Oh the four walls of the cell.

      Ah the four whitening walls

      that irrefutably face the same number.

      Breeding ground of nerves, evil breach,

      through its four corners how it snaps

      apart daily shackled extremities.

      Loving keeper of innumerable keys,

      if you were here, if you could see

      unto what hour these walls are four.

      Against them we’d be with you, just the two,

      more two than ever. And you wouldn’t even cry,

      speak, liberator!

      Ah the four walls of the cell.

      Meanwhile as for those that hurt me, most
