bad habit*
for CAConrad
“you never get the answer in the recitation of the problem”
(from Paul Thek’s notebook #29, 1977)
i.
hello has been
harlot impersonator
screen test carnivore
faux relic of private
behavior misdiagnose
housewife castle as
retro catacomb vocal
hassle usual body
virulent orgasmic i
resist authentic
house a skull
limestone ornate
isolate fake fine
*this poem came about as a result of a collaborative soma(tic) poetry ritual CAConrad and i created. for information about the ritual that led to this poem, please see: http://somaticpoetryexercises.blogspot.com. this is #81.
