organ music softly
a roach motel by the sea
internal
eternal
organ's music softly
scalding their tresses like castaways & lime

dese palm trees
scolding dee mistress
by an EState of fire

well it may press through and coalesce
concerning certain backwoods arguments
by a land between the seas

the flight of paired parrots controlled from some afar

all this in a breathtake of some self-contained underwater aparatus
not cryin
not tinklin
not weepin by the thrush
not pidgeons pointing to the rising of the sun at six o'clock in the morning at every time of year


i can create a melody
but before it pass my lips
the cocked roaches' glare
ready to pounce
will curdle the gesture in my throat
and bloat
and shimmy
and kindly pass to the next windward island
where palm trees
and grasses
and bush
are combed up against the tilt of the land
