Before Infatuation

no matter how much you
please you inherent
inevitable going
pretend adventitious
to design or to nature
we meet at take root

intensities border
little borders between
that which does not
exist red sap
you are going to smash

much you love
saps my

where one tense ends
look up
what does

cloud covers ground
break shelter pull back

than harder thins my

another begins
not missing something
cloud rests upon
peak acted upon
how we met in please

never imagined
can grow on another
at which of these points
should we say please
again please

mutual produced in
apply me authority
an appearance of strangling
an unusual part

neon refractions
false face must hide
wishing trees would
the happiest ever
roots fall from cloud

share under cover
at many points being
take sense
grow quickly
when the ground will be
same again
reached

to rigidity by
false representation
special expression
the more or less peak

fathom this sharing
the arms embracing
our origins in
where happiness ends
our dream dwelling in
collision of cloud
like insensible in
to the earth and take root
living on off or in
divination wets

enter the medium
can beautiful settle
the false heart knows
can air

should we say happiness
root in cloud
negotiate feels like
falling impose
deflect the course of the
drop to the ground
formed accidentally
which it may or may harm

love growing downwards
more or less than conditions
beside it grows
another
best

formed by roots
missing than nothing

like me

dreamed you

can put an end to
can whereabouts
prop descending
another begins

Making stupid, stand in business, ‘by the
jingling of’ class stupefaction in love
as the strong one ‘their bracelets | as they bend
their graceful’ breaking off their weakest arms.

Progress swooning your mother possessed by
origins exhibit origins
administrative affect ‘a motion’
nervous ‘to embrace’ system of the arm.

Mind ‘I went away and made you distant.’
A rise or fall of enjoying sounds ‘while
our arms were busied’ a noose a sword a
severed head while we confer boons in arms.

‘The lotus stems’ ‘that built the house’ what the
fuck you talking for causing inertia
‘lotus stems’ you profit allegories
profit ‘when they become his’ contract arms.

‘They fly out of my’ making fatuous
increase of fires in India they’d let
them all burn view from insensible swoon
‘I dream of babies’ with multiple arms.

Ignorance as the strong one: ‘It’s a sort
