Hotel Tape Water
  
the tape
runs
 
out of the
 
            slots designed to hold water                 a rapid worm          steaming at the balding lights
 
 
there is a sound that's terrifying                      from the television particles         a lamp sight set on hearing the bleeding
noise hungry sound
            in-between  moans --            Our fellow apes        curling banana skins & wiping their brow-heat bleating silver heads with sweat                         degrees                 that flame ---
 
                                               accidental water handles                   fire over roofs        mouths holy and on fire
 
 
I can see the molten leaves            golden flat noses gilded on shining wide faces         studied and deliberate ignorance of                                                                                                                           the sun  
                                                           hair clots     basement refrigeration of bridal gowns      ink-hair netted and drummed out of a widening yelling voice  ----
                                                                 ornamental
                                                                        hoses       horses     fondled by the tipping velvet night
 
 
harsh water hearse                 floating          drifting along on the wide river motion
 
her-self carried by the quiet           under the armored bridges             along the corridors that snake and loop
 
her-vision      visible and softly tangible as the street lamps evaporate                gunpowder
 
                                                thunder eyes             invisibility in the dank heat of summer       night
 
          
            silence                  polygraph    silence                 silver running recording tape winding at bright eyes     the sink and the unvarnished light bulb                                           white bleached silence                   an eye in a tooth blade        hotel silhouette  ---
                                    tape tavern quiet dark heat
 
                                                            silent strong thrombotic thrombing     throb hole      a missionary position
                                                                                                crucible eyehole       key tears     precision
                                                                                                insight       ---
