Contagion - first two sections



Across the water I falling in my waves and particles 
Brightening myself cutting through, elements
Mingling as I merge as I watch myself watching under my 
Racing sky, warmth on my face and across my concrete 
Surface beneath my feet walking running standing and pivoting
I'm kissing and I'm watching me kissing with taut
Passionate cheeks that make me smile in my waves and particles
As I'm borne on my wind and torn and scattering wetly into my air




I darkening slowly across an autumn evening and gaining a chill
Surface of skin and Formica and wood and painted metal as I
Tread crunching on gravel and pant and pad softly in wet grass
My clouds massing blackly against my purple, and I run and 
I stroll slowly my hand in my hand faux-oblivious past me in
My damp sleeping bag and inscribed with black grime laid 
Across and pressing into my cracked and dirty black & white tiled 
Surface lit me a blinking amber shining reflected off my dark windows

... shooting a cold hard sweep

... low sun  
               
blue glowing 
            blue dark
        alight 
an easy thousand 
eyes clenched
                 open       shifting

low late shine skittering a metal edge 
               rebounding off water ...



...  blue age web shining 
           dirty glass 
              spiked wizened white; 
early brightening vintage

                 flexing desire excitation  
laughing
                 intoxicated air ...



... faintly rotting faintly upright 
grey-blue currents, pressure, 
rusting heads & streaked
cracking fragments; dead 
living green 
                    dying white:
weighty, red, brick;
horizontal gaps

out damp
earth and away ...

shining off blue 
rich, bright,

... light tearing 
along 
draping damp 
                    through and from  
           forced up, 
flowing rock colliding a vast duration 
        blank squatting;
quick ribbon 
cool fire 
          verging gurgling lit 
golden green, 
             brightness holding 
                                    respiration ... 



... light-speed shadowing creeping 
             across yellowing ...  



... body, lower spine 
spreading, exhausted 
nightgrowling, 
stretching apart metal wet

           water descending darkness,
shining refracted
exploding, impacting        6:05
  
           vapour expelled rolling ... 



... an angle on an axis
hitting evening
on a slant 
                 intensity     
through screen: 
scuff marks, 
Illuminating dirt,
deep dug inscripting
subjectivising accumulations
                 joyhowling ...



... rearing up:
glowing disjunction synthesised, 
flashing response, imperceptible 
shimmering, scarlet against blue, 
steel against russet screaming love ...



... dirty hour, draggled damp
shining damp, 
state paint,
drawing elsewhere extension, 
           evening aglow
       soft silver oscillating
translucent plastic ... 



... laying soft

... feint red slow
sweeping under 
          steam and 
glass         a cut of
obscure perception 
perceiving obscurity
crystalline 
                quotidian 
beauty 
becoming with
exploitation-exhaustion &
green white light ...



... moving forwards slowly
in a shower of light speed &
a patchy, early roaring,
summer silver ... 



... black 
    cold 
    air
humming electrically, 
shining with ten thousand 
limbs, 
          echoing in
          wet concrete &
          shining glass ...



... an irritation of warm yellow
reflecting off concrete and through glass  
meeting shadowed surfaces keeping cool
against raging sunspots here and eight minutes away,
desiring the rising and then tumbling sculpture
of water that giggles across parching skin and is
rubbed and sucked 
away ...



... rubbering 
against dirty 
concrete a
grounding element 
of forwards 
propulsion
through
late
roaring 
black summer
gold,
stretched
classically arching
electrical
plastic shadows &
a buzzing
running through 
a sensitive 
outer 
envelope, 
buzzing & singing,
a minor expansion
due to
intoxicants ...



... stripe brightening frozen 
crystalline hard 
air road, early,
tracks inscribed 
through light into
dimming shadow ...



... dark water tearing 
to pale dynamic 
                    fragments 
brief 
            fringing 
greening concrete, 
a fragile rising 
evanescent from
unfathoms ...



... thick, humming heat murmuring, 
against cool pale render -  
a shining oversized monochrome 
dominance blue and spreading 
across a galvanised sphere of influence ...



... resistant 
green 
resilience and 
hard black, shining, 
      and 
rushing white 
clarity - crossing 
temporal aspects 
           and 
blank monumental memories 
            of 
cosmic forces immense 
quiet powers 
pressing outwards,  
this balancing ...



... quickening brief 
playing across steel
expression, hearing particles ...



... pouring horizontally along the sour honey grasses
           a harsh, gritty 
          breathing 
           of a heaving sea
passing across white walls darkening
with underfresh years,
        underfeeding, &
      with rapid turning ...



... dimly silvering evening light 
Illuminating a patch of asphalt
flanked by a bright
         gesturing
of concrete and steel ...
