Oberbaum-Brücke, 1977 by Peter Ackermann

I.

l'études des parfums

here is the vomit of 20th century

solutions of india ink and ox bile

OUTSIDE INDUSTRIAL GARAGE

reset ORANGE GOAL

the pageant of chrome

(and chrome colors: yellow chord / green rhythm)

STANDARDS:

here, the stars die in gardens

stale and malignant

Harpsichord and Bass Clarinet

composition of fabric and sulphur

matchless PRAX

Vampire Salon

of human dignity, compete

then we relax in glass

of no color

colorless liquid afternoons

of italian marble and

a gallery of snare sounds

II.

"Who, with traction_"

(placid matrix of Club Country

in these pastel tonics)

Some Twilight Hunting

Plaid Motor Robes

oil of cypress DISTIL

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

ALPINE flashing

against dark lens

The Common Gentle Surface

abraded by Rum and Bay Leaves

stale and malignant

so when your CARBON FLEX

of rolodex foxfire

III.

The union of ink and circuit ABSORBED BY GREEN

water

tinted with minerals

and ENGLISH RAIN

the landscape colors neutralized

by Payne's Grey

OCHRE transfigured into Ceramic Blanche

shell pink in tins with yellow printing

HORSE hair and tired HORSE

(HORSE IS NOT MOVING)

fixed in cul-de-sac

IV.

● CASED THE JOINT

● with latex and enamel flash

● reversed circulation to create

● perfect chaos out of dust

● and the discovery of the short scale of our own vision

● we retreated back into print

● the vagrants watching us with steel teeth

● locked into place

● ready for the music

● chewing at cables and snares

V.

● TOLEX landscape of northern industrial charcoal heath VAST

● what floats out of transfixion

● the black, flat passions

● the synthesizer

● The lead peeling off the plaster gallery of saints:

○ ST. VARIAX

○ ST. CLOROX

○ ST. CLB SODA

○ ST. TACK PIANO

(rooms of incense and nickel candles wrapped in brown paper.)

The DRACONIA County post office

yellowed letters in automatic tone

in mechanical percussion

incinerated

under lavender skies

of spinster piano music

VI.

VANQUISH THE MELODIC
