polybox #14: bleeding down the mountains when it comes



one quick pitch against a blowing sun;  a text not available is two prongs past dilemma point;  look reasoning out of an eye, or
in the middle of dearth we’re in lift; a wage playa foam burns down as that way; you got a show

to get ready, for, stand in the shadow of “of”
the barrier clefts the day like a shadow page, fine foam goes missing in the there time
continuum noninternational is:  a shotgun blows away the dynamics markings, four handed release time situation over close reading that’s far over closed reading that’s fear

a load of time to maybe seething against a page, white pouring grows heavily a time fames merchant reality,  like there the landscape is moving a melting time hubbub incautious with a dilapidated there look out!  where the data get hidden,  in the alpine valleys, the closed eyes, 

the staring and the half-thinking;  driving over interstates at the speed of verbs with blurs of nouns ..
this then in the woods flaming;  the ski lifts drop the words;  the lift shuffles the words into new multiples;  the ski trails drip down mountain side like flames of iffy blood

larger units as aluminum bars close in; a slush fund is a mire toward shabby, it keeps dripping over illusion;  a confluence of the weather-beaten and the waffling and then the one going quietly insane in the next cubicle, is a quick wink from a sea that’s melting;  they say you got to hear

and obey the pecking-order, kiddo if you did somthin’ meaningful to the substance of being here, it’s innermost of the pinnermost as a Lennon or a Lenin almost didn’t say; it’s a matter of pilfering the impromptu and the word-game silence moment if you did somthin’ meaningful to the

substrate of being here,  the shortcomings are a shadow-lashing where ya try out the words inside the point inside the howling tantrum, or. you flunk that time with a strangled by string theory, tune that waiting like a pi-stringed guitar flow rapid time systems over the sleek nosedive

re-set grade point average glints fashionable and insincere like making it possible to breathe in the thickening wage idiocy template agreements,  all fury or a jokey smirk droop neural net
as if then recovery in motel dawn, a magnetic mirror in a line-storm stranglehold:  falling, or

something; fabricated by a close almost splat; time management in between the scribbled characters?  you’ve got a lot of losing to find in a fanlight relation amplification,  the stupid can’t find hanging words where the words go plummeting keep up the standard zero rate of plummet

thinking as you play is a soviet confluence a bunch of stones weighs down the words like peering playfulness is plural; recently the compilation is lost in the hiding, you have to see that butchery is pocket rage exponentiation new-fangled & unseemly is the monetize time-tangle

synthesis:  it glitches right here where you saw the tumult apart that then a flip across the one time,  the ice a phantoming across then the slide heads right past him,  he looks back down the road a margin for, not clear just in error then, as a  silent faked band conjured out of here plays, wispy with sidespin, they think they’re um real, or actual, or falling

felony militia



Felony militia, begun in June 2002, and recently revised a bit, is a polyphon for 4 voices.  Three performers work from the main score, while a fourth voice (“the other voice”)  reads the continuous text.  I was tired of calling the parts 1, 2, 3 and so on, so the performers are designated by symbols. Performed this week at the Wednesday nite meeting.  –mp
