Six Poemz – Ryan Bry
March 2, 2018
like a dream scythe to the head / sleeper-soul
wake up
you alien
we got shindigs to wrestle
degrees to flaunt
slashburns to remedy,
with time with time
the breezelette mingles
to the reasonable sound
of quartet floozies
zing out of this dimension
to another Earth
with more sympathy
for chicken growers
like yourself.
negative karma
from machines
float into your easy head
easy with sleep
easy with silliness
what if i turn this off?
drown more
fluidly next time
we like it
when you throw
your shoes around
like the nacreous cotton
that holds your body together.
an ikea salad
been bamboozled another by that moonslinging son of a whip-crack. one of these 3:36 pm’s i’m gonna wake with cake on my throat. speed racer earning some greasy simoleons, he does. grendall kirchner aimless and true mumbles his way into rightless eternities. my elbows grungy up to the idea of wingless avocadoes. please be told you are one buddy walleye in this fling-up parade. you are my rastaman from iceland with golden fingertips.
weightless birds with lego blood dance towards infernal burger joints. like 30 times the bunsen burner feeds the viagra babies in pepsi. with my lighter i set the mosaic mirror on fire. georgia peach in georgia font. keep on surgeon on for those mink iron answers. billy eyed bluebelly really ought to do something about this.
tennis elbow johnny manhunt lily willow steal this heart of water bells. the stream seems false. verify your freedom condition with your freedom identification. who do you think you are smoking space shuttles in the blossom pie night? the future takes you where? ablaze’n din and even ablaze’n lulls. the task manager is a task. go back to your home.
we will live actually
take your friend
out to the WIND
NUMBER lodge—
where we wing
heaven miners
who have honey
pockets—
take them
with your airplane
made of snow
and paint.
we will race
over nerdy turfs
to unstuck realities,
our eyeballs golden
with the sun transmission;
until the rimy brine
from ICE EVENTUAL
floats unwounded
for us.
slide this translucent
steak down
your throat,
and breathe fresh
dormitized air —
this is your life,
I believe!
undermilk screaming luxury
unhinge me,
i’m in your colossal
milk. bowl.—
waiting, for punctuation
to take effect.
your mother
was debilitation, darling
your skin is ripe
as jujee fruit
in springtype fascinations.
kill the goddamned clock-
seeker, with a freemason
cudgel. i keep. dying. to
see you, your face glows
stupid, and free.
i wrote this yesterday poem
i wrote this yesterday poem
its ribs drip cement for
magnolia parkway.
fascination penumbras
double-u cranberry
up with sympathy
conspiracies. my
dingo dimensions
vault at the sight
of translucent you.
poltergeist turbulence
in chiaroscuro emblems,
lordy on fire:
he’s really coming down
with corn-cob wands
and angel ninny bonnets.
feed the balcony
some screaming ink
and rest your arms
in comic brilliance—
dwarf digestion of
milk and cookies.
dream lawyer (for my dad)
did you photograph this florida sunset with your slingshot temperament
did you bury dead flowers under the physicality of your footsteps
you talk to your clients while i water the fake plants
and the sun does circles around you
the diet coke king inaugurates another moody tuesday
and i keep thinking
why do i have a brain
and you practice your putting
like nothing is happening
and nothing is happening
i needed a lawyer to sue my bad dream
and you came
with bagels and coffee
and collateral—a sweat stained callaway hat
you came
with a tornado’s deposition
you came, of course you did
you came into my bad dream
exorcising it in the name of ballgame
your reason was dominant
you took me to where the rain never bleeds
and dream lawyer
you took me to earth’s greenest steam shower
and showed me the emergent airplanes over the concrete fields
dream lawyer, i owe you
for passing the dream down.
