<\/p>\n

i
\ndriving delirious and lazy language
\nas awareness is penned
\nin uneven harmony
\nwhere’s the theme?
\ni think it’s lost
\nlost within long winter nights
\ndrunk and rusted
\nin a network dungeon<\/p>\n

encrypted fantasies
\nrot on a bed
\nof anxious roses
\nand antiquated microchips<\/p>\n

as i rest uneasy with two dreams
\none far from reality
\nthe other, close at hand
\nfast above a frantic summer sleep
\nand like a delicious buhddah
\ni’m sitting with warm women
\nand cold beer, indulged in the neon night<\/p>\n

ii
\nhere i am
\na galatic geek
\nmad as a diamond crush
\nchanting raw time
\nover smooth shadows
\nbare beneath an intelligent flame
\nlive, and hacking the brain
\ni watch, whisper, and worship
\na thousand milky gardens
\nas time explodes
\ninto another disordered system<\/p>\n

crush the sky
\nas bitter angels
\nsleep off the urge to desecrate
\nthis caricature of creation<\/p>\n

walking with digital prisoners
\nand morning fools
\nliquid names will not complete
\nthis information virus
\ncould you help me download the light?<\/p>\n

iii
\nnaked and sinister, ferocious flowers
\ntransmit sensual rhythms on a plaid network
\nas transient ghost avatars
\nbleed for blacklisted poetry<\/p>\n

one poet, two mystics, and three mad maidens
\ntogether with a bottle of mushroom mead
\nchaos is summoned,
\nexhumed and embraced with elastic exuberance<\/p>\n

wifi war
\nswimming in binary confusion
\ncould you upload
\nand upgrade
\nthis native tech
\nwith linear love<\/p>\n

iv
\nplaying on a picture’s mist
\ni watch absent children
\ndream of a black symphony
\nand create gorgeous death
\nwith musical tongues
\nmanipulated in movements of
\nmajestic melancholy<\/p>\n

cat eyes, gazing
\ninto infinite landscapes
\nof rabbinical radicalism
\nwe are waiting for a lapse in this concrete sanity<\/p>\n

and in the next town over
\nblue blooded goddesses
\nscream beneath a purple rain
\nand slow dance
\na soft season of poison
\nwith misfit rednecks
\nunder a pirated moon<\/p>\n

v
\nspace, young and infinite
\nwatch us as we ride
\nsecular sacrements
\nof anonymous\u00a0 incantations
\nin search of the source
\nof ancient web based communion<\/p>\n

online humanoid utility
\nwriting code from facetious flames
\neach byte created
\nis an existential performance<\/p>\n

for twenty years i wandered
\ncomputer screens and rural murals
\nseeking out new rituals
\nand macabre methods of missionary file sharing<\/p>\n

we are rapidly approaching the end of of a futile system
\nstand fast, and prepare yourselves with
\nsilver talismans of singular beauty
\nbecause this next revelation will be one hell of a ride<\/p>\n
