for Rebecca, Russ

Performed on YouTube
as, " Exploring Decay "

Exploring decay
in a transparent tank
filled with rank
remains
requiring repeated
viewings
of reclining nudes
as seen in minute
smears
of disappearing ink
Leaving
white lines
of monotypes
created
for the entire
multiplication
table
as an exaggeration
filed away
with a suicidal
bride
in a silent
afterlife
As the unprintable
title
of fogged-over
eyes
begrudgingly
ending up
in a prison-
like jumbled
mind
with mood
lighting
Dancing awkwardly
away
from the limelight
seemingly mesmerized
by the finality
of accuracy
snuggling in mink
intent
on retarding it
In fits and starts
with a shot
in the arm
of the obvious
Suspended logic
holding
on with a nod
to the probable
as a cultivated star
of the foreign
with alarm
Like a guest artist
never wanting
the hardly
unwelcoming
milking
of publicity
like
a potbellied
pig
Gone unnoticed
after bringing
down the house
before a crowd
in an intimate
single ring
of the long familiar
within inches...
