make yourself uncomfortable

1)

no one can tell me
which way the wind blows

I got a little lost
the buildings kept changing colors and the
rooflines skipped
like a computer
glich

is that burdock
or just some bushes

a crate of peaches
covered with snow

the rain it raineth
every day
listless and grey

far away

2)

for those of you
who have been wondering

the television
will not be
revolutionized

3)

I walked through the market
the smell of food
no car. no mobile phone. no gun
no personal entertainment system

a bag. some waiting
in line.staring at
high arched
scrollwork
sky

4)

do you do this every day
do you half understand
do you try and give up
are you embarrassed
do you lose patience
does no one notice
.........................you
learned to be uncomfortable

5)

if there is a freight train and a passenger train
at different speeds down the same length
of track............if I have a vision
of trains on a length
of track is there is a stop
signal if
the signal malfunctions
the guage is narrow
the President
dying

that's how it is
is not an argument

that's how is was
also not

6)

what was the last thing you made
before you......nothing
after you........music
gardens discoveries
...................an empty
space
.........a green
...................and orange
...................the last thing
...................a profit a
petrochemical
...................what was the
last thing you made

7)

clear blue sky
of an autumn day
yellow leaves
gone brown
to the ground
regular panes
of glass and wood
water...waves
some fog
some grit
.......in the
air a swan
.......flying
under the
.......moon

8)

the theory
is we conspire
to disbelieve
the existence
of those
most
.......cleary
responsible

in the diaphanous
mirrored
rooms

9)

a warehouse of peaches
covered with snow

the secret police
of every land

drive home and
shut the garage door

and eat
in anonymous
peace

10)

I don't yet know
........how to do this every day
how to fix this
........half understanding
and one of those words I
........try to give up
I always forget
........we are so embarrassed
the rain raineth
........and we lose patience
from clear blue sky
........no one notices you
learning
to be
uncomfortable

eternity aside
no one
ever
tells us

which way
the window
blows open
ahead
