The Commons set 3 // 8 - 9


so we were buying weapons
ok / lets start that again -
on public transport, it happened
we were sitting opposite
bullets / chemistry / glass
we were separated. inside
what we once were. & they
were sitting opposite, empirical
& scared. they were scared
of us / our charts & remorse
no-one knows / we were buying
inside their office, the dead
they were scared of us, of
our seven metals / & radar shrike


but as I was out walking
with the strange & bitter men
we were / say it / we were
anxious radar dogs / we were
oblivious swarms, canceled
solvents, polite ones / we were
a confused mass of centuries
seven burning circles / were
electrons / proverbs / molecules
from hand to crackling hand
a fraudulent cosmology
a hole in the ground
I wish london would
like, crack its face / o cuckoo

    n we order that the poets’ rights be revered:

    * To enlarge the scope of the poet’s vocabulary with
    arbitrary and derivative words (word-novelty).
    * To feel an insurmountable hatred
    for the language existing before their time.
    * To push with horror off their proud brow the wreath of cheap
    fame
    bathhouse switches.
    * To stand on the rock of the word “we” amidst the sea of boos
    and outrage.

    osmotic fellucas infinitely meliorate
    the transmigration of owls
