Hollywood Creation Myth (Poetry Reading)

2025-05-02T15:03:00


Bloody minded memories,
paper-plate faces
                                 follow me.
I paint on features -
creatures of my creation.
Red dead lips that kiss,
and tickle my
                 S
                 t
                 e
                 m
Whittling this type-set,
resetting to recreate
films lost in the grain,
burnt in the flames
of superman's curse
or any other
H O L L Y W O O D
myth, adrift,            dispersed.
Whistling alarms
swing tremolo arms
of atmospheric
           PRESSURE.
Spinning me more
than dead red lips,
white paper faces,
or any synthetic
caricature.
