Sheila E. Murphy and Douglas Barbour


Continuations LXIII:


a cross person dictates im
     pure possibility     de/natured
how it go away   how it
fall and failure follow a weaving
     line   up and down rout(e)
sands of time wasted blow back


rasterized imagery seats nature
apart from waste      while
lacking in allure        or rooted
   amid sands tattering old wood
      if pictures and their tangents
ever are     to go away


how far with that twosome fare
an I for an I after all iance
      finance inter curse     stitial
bleed     from a stone meant
for tuning the new body polite
ticks  talk their way out of


future value   present dance     a cure
where bursars are     some littering
    on terra firmament             the tics
catch             s kin   that chalks   sport line     
age          cinching     cups                  
        at stages all    along the con    course


hole by whole   some were
     wolfed food chain reaction speaks
easy beyond all fathoming
that some singular being stated firm
anent adam meant for land or laud
     each time specific stage for song long gone


laudate fills the latent heart
with urgent notice of be
ginning each sing u larious
          sound      as accidentally staged
song      pathed to make
the chain residual and     wondrous


wander rushed song of rocks
     white watered   /  receded
notes bursting into bloom
     boxed    foxed       non-toxed
into fresh melodies    a sickened
world re/membering collates there


amid melodious tincture
crystalline freshness hastens
                     leisure of the flow
       unmeasured for white blooming
                draws the eye to note
     thick textures as the blend


     bland wash of white water
rush through caves crystal
eyes  /    archi tactics of the word made
glass    /  a whirling below a dance
erred memory writhes   revives
     the song of stone(d)    thrown down


lured to tones be
set by non-legato legacy            the world
made tacit          thins
            owned fade         a rush of it
      once tactile        errs
                against its own           g rain


g round down  /  a beefed up response
     a buffered tone  (or [re] buffed
how play into ghostwalked
subtleties  / sub-titles
     telling details lost in the fade
the faddish fall of words dead aired out


how play now       subtitles
contradict speech          terra enferma
infects words         thoughts      
     in the air moves laterally     
vertically from down           fading
     to loss        of capability      of (im)pulse


impose or impart what knowledge
     plucked   placating noises off
side / windered      winnowed
     words wracked and un-wrought
fall from ghost mouths fading in sun
lit rooms speech foundering


off            mouthing    some       fleck
of would-be mean
ing            ghosts cool          the otherwise
sunned room      fictional
in part     to know is to
      hold a foundation for           the words

     in    trobarding ghostsong  so long
a good buy   /   a goat boy
     bellwethered   bemused


blue faced bards          leave rinds
     of song  by goat        by gum
      one ponders        what ghosts
weigh             while musing
lilting rerun chimes        without
a body to retain


retrain the body attuned toward song (off
     that kind     that kind of        muse
sick of marches militant
official officered bands bend to
     the tell of rude awakening
a wake in inked chaos  (blackened


blinkery trilled close to the wake
of salt water searing
earlier smooth air
     with breath redeemed
from chaos       leaning chorally
                   toward attunement


a tune (rune) meant to pitch a way
     from true     north   strung out on
mended acidity   some dead taste
waste in the throat trying to open
     opine on righteous anger    how
dare u turning turncoats fall abaft


          what vast right wrongs
all the cities strung across
and out of thought   dead
even among pines  no hiding

false notes fall too slowly from the air
