Steve Halle



The Players. Piano.

Fingers burn cigarette

burning fingers on keys.

smoke turns smoker bluer-ideas:

 

spin

spin

spin

spin spin

spindrift.

 

anesthetic. pedantic. coercion.

interrogation. fluorescent lights' "52nd

St. Theme." Plants two needles:

 

Bellevue

spins

madman

spuncycle

habits die young.

 

East River sunup.

Pannonica de Koenigswarter chirps

notes of vulture. coyote. felinity:

 

cleans

cat-hair couch,

lint brushes

bail money.






Pseudo. Ode. To a myspace addict.

quo-stat neal

kneels next to altar

of dean-o-nomics and flightless birds:

 

penguin

ostrich

emu

kiwi

tied-down albatross.

 

free genius flips

pages between sheets. carseats.

Ethernet cable fumes like Junky:

 

page hits:

16

19

27!

84!!

unreal.

 

laughing gas. castaneda

laughs and listens. power

rises from insideout his groin:

 

peyotian:

cleanse

and

retrieve

and

master

silence.
