her pieces arrested his attentionthough he was keenly attentive 
                                                                  he dreamed
he all of himhis dreamed-self dreaming-self

kept an eye outan eye peeled Obrother
                                          truly paid out dividends earlier this morning

   the only way he could explain it after huddling with his dream cohorts was artful
she was artful 
soulful

   she was his 


shed never come to him this way before  she was delectable
                                                                came in tidbits pieces


they descended into a massive collapsedelastic brick chimney on iron ladder rungs he went first
 

   in its very belly ovenlike its face had given waycrumbled beyond it they saw lush greenfoliage woven with scented colouredflowers that in turnabove their bobbingheads revealed a rustsandyellow beach a paleblue whitesurficing sea

the softearth under their feet was madeup of blownsand cinder driedpetals slivers of fretted seagrass flinteddeaddry leaves
       they could smelled the tart saltwater mingling with the flowers 


they undressed

naked  he turned her to the iron rungs

she placed a foot on one held another with both hands 
                                                          leaning forwardhe leaned over her rump against her smelled her neck through her jetblack hair
                                reaching downforward to her leg on the iron he gentlytouched her behind the knee
art happened

  he could only see her through his hand asif an eye grew there 
for his eyes went black

the blindness was erotic

slowly deliberately he ran his fingers across her skin  tickling her

he saw her in segments frames
a slow montage 
collage 
          decollage  unstuck 
affiches lecerees
   she disassembled as he touched her 
a sensual unmade quilt 
                         the insides of her thighs 
stem of her spine 
her hollowsVenus dimples armpits collarbones 
the plump sides of her breasts underbreast brushed her aureoles teased her nipples 
gingerlytouched her lips her nose brow 
felt the insides of her elbows
                                he placed his hands on top of herstheir fingers laced

   mergingthey became one

Donshrug A difference

You know, often I have a hard time following you . . but . I don’t see it.  Dead’s dead.

Cold

We’re talking leaves, right?

Yah

Theres a difference between dead leaves and killed leaves

You said.  
            Dead’s dead.

Leaves come off a tree fall on their own  dead 
                                                 A tree is cut down limbs removed for aesthetic reasons not for the health of the plant those are killed leaves no tellin whas living among them the term collateral damage the fact tha we can carelessly toss it aroundnot mention create it have coined it speaks volumes to the lack of consideration or compassion we have for fellow earthlings

Earthlings? Trees?

You don think so

I don’t.

The fucking planets lungs Ya don

That’s a lot of trees, man . .
. . Until theyre not 
                   Too many species all kingdoms some possibly never known are extinct under our care husbandry  Job King James version some chapter some lines                                                                                                                              But ask now the beasts an they shall teach thee an the fowls of the air an they shall tell thee or speak to the earth an it shall teach thee an the fishes of the sea shall declare unto thee

See wha nuns kneeling me on broomsticks taught me
