Found Mantras

Keep it light, loose and bizzare

One is all I need

(I can encrypt a zoo)

 

Like a precondition, forests were first.

Giambattista saw wandering giants as

A trope and a genre

Foreign, tragic.

 

Chaotic imagination that is the focus

And locus of poets.

 

We engage and encourage

With perfect contempt, nostalgia for utopia.

 

I seldom dislike doing nothing.

I am concerned less with truth than reality

 

On Sundays I speculate

On Mondays I dive

 

And do not emerge for a week

Bottle bound by the bottom of boozy

Description.

 

I cannot be the clearing that

Overcomes dissolution.

 

I am the clearing dissolved.

 

The desert. The beach.

I am remote. I am happy. I am common. I am judged.

 

If I cooperate, I will become my shadow.
