01/07/95   either
           my narrative
           weathervane
           is all
           fucked up
           or something
           very bad
           is about
           to happen--
           and then:

01/07/95   who went to heaven
           no one
           who went to hell
           no one
           everyone was here
           & just
           for a while--
           a movie lot
           of ideological

           a way we'd have
           a way of stay
           ing  in touch  see
           ing  as we do
           each other only
           now & then  each giving
           to each other
           threads of words
           some speakable

02/25/95   excess textual energy
           what rough beast
           slouches toward the red
           roof inn upper limit
           the roof of your mouth
           below which fralump
           blay qazell digl
           tongue fish slap
           thrash about on the wooden
           row boat bottom
