11.1
a funeral, a lantern: to guide us
and this body across the river
“he floats like driftwood.”
“he’ll tote behind us.”
all around, the patiently waiting
their lips whispering, whispering
and in their breath the lamplight dances
fl!ckering, fl!ckering: “halleluiah!”
fl!ckering, fl!ckering: “but who turned out the lights?”
and in a procession of this pitch__
nearly perfectly plucked from the blackest nest
hungry mouths agape for the taste of flesh and blood sacrifised
like rats to the river or packs of children enchanted by the tune of the pipe__
this funeral song is the only form of progression we know
nail the arch of the hooved_beast above your door
opposite crucifix_topped headboards
where you lay your head but no sleep doth arrest your soul
(and if salvation don’t come, if salvation don’t come, cry,)
“oh god, if you take me, dont let me walk alone.”
11.2
(dear congregation)
quote me something to justify
now something to condemn
tell me how much i’m loved
and how i’m going to h_ll
what does that say of you
and the free_will that you claim god has given us?
this is my right to choice
my obligation to question
call it divine intervention
or just human nature
quote me something to justify
now something to condemn
tell me how much i’m loved
and that i’m going to die, and my face will fade
into the dark, floating away
someday i’ll see you in the dark

11.3
a rose, a rose, a th_rn: a briar patch
with blossoms blooming, burning, burning
where ivy clings, the vines are turning
first green then brown then red then black then nothing
the wind picks up, the ashes fly
“look alive!”
11.4
a letter, date missing:
“dear mother, dear father
mutiny’s rising. i’ll soon meet my maker!
oh my god! (what’s your name?)
oh my god! (now say my name.)”
but the magic is lost
as the palms hoist their burden
(heave!) the first_born son
(ho!) to the obsidian water

11.5
raise your hands! close your eyes!
sing aloud! give praise!
sing your songs of halleluiah
let your spirit flow right through you
and the spirit lead by emotion
is the same that i’m evoking
and some day…

11.6
“in the darkness together
we’ll float on forever
searching for a shore
we’ll never find.” __
and when we’re finished
and we’ve paid our penance
can we finally, finally
get some f_cking sleep?
(don’t tell me that everything happens for a reason
nothing happens for a reason
you live your own way
let me live mine
because we only die once
and its for oh so long.)
