Preparations

Shut the drawers. No.
Open the drawers first.
Check for forks. No.
Knives. If there are knives
crossed, straighten them. No.
Check for knives which are out. If
they are, straighten them. Crossed
knives attract lightening.
Then put any knives
into a drawer.
Make sure
 they're
parallel.
Spoons. Light is crescent upon a spoon.
Turn spoons over.
Spoons contain.
Spit. Not to polish but to shine.
Shine remains when darkness covers,
even if it is dark inside.
Retain composure.
Keep fingers busy.
Mark words.
Paw doubt.
It is show time and pretty soon a morning star
will wander for a manger.
The Madonna's hands shall be Raphael eclectic
and not one bit bloodied: an edict unwritten
in her wrists.
How remiss
to have missed stains.
Pause. Check for rain.
Rain heralds anger.
Keep no thirst. Never call spades. Recognize
a pot when it bubbles over. Moreover
place all cups within shrines.
Allow irons to cool. Strike not, nor linger.
Take measure. Pool any present danger.
Hush. (No, hark.)
There may be breathy strangers
haggling cupboards. Hurry.
She might unswathe, or tell
hordes where she hoards
more treasure. Myrrh for example. Although no
one knows quite what for.
Shut all.
Shut all.

concerning foresky times branches empty
seasons rimosed black arms frittying

no brothers nor promise have no for no
nothing but tertiary ingots, mammary and

faithful trading regarded by the master
as fidelity in small matters only but big

yourself know very well that day will come
like a contrawise at night stealing attraction

when people are saying, "Peace and security,"
hoping not to give away by glance, touch,

rush, a seeding in the scrotum, a
sudden disaster comes upon like labor pains a pregnant

and they will not escape how you look at them these
inactivity men not negligible but seriously culpable

But, as brothers, are not in darkness, for that day to over-
take you like a thief

For all of us are children of the light and of the reaching
and thus of the reaching darkness sick browken
promisays sick

therefore, let us not sleep as the rest do, but
let us stay alert sober angry rookunhavened

the sharsted commitherings have grown
 the different we are is upt on
  the dirth dropped

   mucoust tears upon moldleef moldleef moldleef
     worms scorn not partying erections
