mccagle:

don’t want to be just like the other ones

don’t want to be just like the brothers for funs

don’t want to be just like you for me 

easy peasy is not copying Weezy 

for shaving 

scars 

into your 

own brow is 

shaving all your essence and spitting at the stars 

bright young thing

mccagle:

voluminous continuum 

boundless spectrum

from pole to pole

under the sun 

in every nook

and cranny 

expanding

spread 

leave

no void

greenness 

mccagle:

what if i took you here

will you take me somewhere

what if i showed you things

will you give me thanks

what if i smiled

will you listen for miles

windows down 

lets leave this ghost town 

what if i played you songs

will you live and let live, long

day breaks with amber

blazing gold 

what if i screamed 

will you shout, love gleams 

what if we skipped town 

dreams 

Summer of 2012: critical mass

mccagle:

my mother dreams

of pulling pink taffy out of her mouth

stretching, sticking, coating her teeth

snapping

snapping

snapping off

my aunt dreams

of pulling taffy out of her mouth

stretching, sticking, coating her teeth

snapping

snapping

snapping off

my grandmother dreams

of pulling…

Summer of 2012: the complete knock

mccagle:

how did the spectacle of nature affect him?

how did he behave in the matter of women, of money?

was he rich, poor; what was his diet, his daily routine?

Saint-Beuve I say,

the comedy of grass and trees coat my veins like the venom of a snake

singeing my heart burning my palms ripping my eyes…

LOVE-LOVE

mccagle:

   cristen vs universalabyss 

three plants, three walls, three mates

up-fall

rosemary, basil, cinnamon 

downfall 

bass and drum, heart and drum, words and drum 

miss you, bye
