early morning water hymn atop cloud stair island

and birds are spies they report to trees a slab of granite forestfloor where are there lines of equal intensity inside quiet night weaving fall leaves into dandelion journal above cartographers stuffing maps into mattresses wonder how lonely keep lovely

foster these feelings of singing grand piano prokofiev opus 82 with sea wave accents are strophes of ghost geography walk out to desert great coastal p or t c ons ider ma g ic e ye parachutes symphonic tree roots steep young pine needles in boiling water tree eater tallstrunt

journey nightcorridor the psychotic stillness of gooey layered caves circular sweater of cloudberries cranberries arctic brambles and sea buckthorns

a nutcracker is the evening shades drawn over walnut raincoat and words are swallows hidden silent

mosscreep morninglight

cloud dreams through heavywater nightscape where waves waver passering through on by g h o s t e r i n g absent of coast

hollow nocturne spectral magick of deciduous sound

yes the view are great deserts are eating holographs of black magicians exorcise steeplesfrom sand dunes this eye are vulnerable those futurist strophes i will isolate mausoleums unreached goodnight planets in object-world apropos hello

it is refreshing air out cornea aer press press press head with twin atlas the cinema screen flicker petrol wallpaper yes the view are great from inside the sarcophagus as even woods i's and the textual pharmacopoeia

longitudes dray globular reefsform exoskeleton mindcreeps existing dimensionalities above plexus of losslessnessness am i maker sense particle accelerate these mutant mindisms unmove these luxuriant heat orbs pass through

look enter canyon of shadow hum hum wander ambient of coldspace waves

languagescape october underfoot there are woven map genetic composition of space between floorboards in kitchen flashlight dissassembler you i look these i's alive yarn weather parkas step out tent flaps limbless mountain unwavering cape desolation

o c c a s i o n a l l e a f t e e t h t a l k occasional days days as less in squares which are buds of glaciers tacked to musket branches by night whisper dark as grand father wisp ethereal wisp trains of cotton ball locomotive transitives transit yarn drip drop textual seafoam by mid of c r e e p e r i n g night

cascade underbrush nightingales flock near ever lights bright bright light lite-brite seed packets few flew fly over under above

stairs cases lower cases lower and upper depositories repository lights flash as flashlit basket basket hum birds of seasonal pitch first moon graphs stretch tides eyes precipitate streams of chords twine cord trees blue as never

wild paint peak painted swam swum swirl air particles parts of articles le paper articles comprise particles of gaseous files suspended suspended tides as earth pitch locomotives where snow gust bears as infinity reflex lake whisper latitude silent as ever ever (as)

smile earth peaks whisper pins in wheel voids voids upturned wisps crawling cabins open at night sound boards of walk woke where wispy days (as ever) leafy precipitate

a munchian shriek these walnut raincoats i try to evade

do birds exist outside of wallpaper

i wish to express myself as a insipid tunnel a rotational space-station

until then hindsight is the spine of feathersa munchian shriek these walnut raincoats i try to evade
