Excavation 2

Word's aliens waiting paint
the path laughs as they fly out
then ins
the cryptoswitchboard lights in
the chinese room and

petaldoorr emits cascades of sails,
the road before opens a brain
in this moor
we were mere weresounds;
halfdoubled inward arcs of axle,

until the bent popped off a wheel and
the spin initiated a new mountainous
universe. One by one.
We renamed the muscles in our hearts after
ice forests and the surly walls borders burning

ings into our octopus mind(s_

The noiseless rivers brought air and earth to
our waters failingso we fought fire with Ingrid then
smothered her in arpolleras.

Lexicons blared patience at her funeral at sea,
another cogwheel turning passion behind
exactly at how the steadily beat increased while
all of the whale oil in Japan blew sparks.

L'Etranger waited for it to be over
over by the dirigibles until after the
midpoint of forever
while we were playing around with our muscles
vulgar; but there was a key under the stone
and the whales
always needed to idle a bit anyways--
the aliens were still busy.
