poems || John M. Bennett



olvido teológico-político

bed sink shirt or  )wall nacre(
must the ,melter foam r
unning out the cut-off heads
ah  .estilation ,dug fog ,muck
filled with  .hair your  .meal
worm file what “thousand”
smile retained¡ oh nor n
ail  !chewed the buttons off
,said uh “thinking dirt” your
face behind the skin 2
rising snakes ,was blood
,was all was fake ,dusty
in the corn ,just still ,p
roudly blotted like your
heart burning in a bowl
)sheared right off ,the
peltless crowd ,shouting
for the end of time my(
useless jaw dangling
from a shel    f

...huehueyetztli...
- Motecuhzoma

  

olvido del fusil

plume high crack uh neck
faucet withered soon enough
,suerte de túnel por la
frente como si  .negate
the missle yawn the
doubled time redaction
what was spinning was
spinning y  .goteo nor
teño la cena servida
omni-intencional the
air retreats the snore
impales el humo “K
escribe desescribe y
me quedo con la cueva
desdentada ,ay abierta
.el pulmón the motor the
sizzling clouds

...in yautli in huitztli.
- Cuauhtemoc

olvido del right churn

right the churned tool locker
