NARCISSUS
Upon seeing (my body) black
stable ready to be devoured.
Body entering the nation:
erect complaint.
Feeling-body (my body) exorbitant magnitude
night.
Multicolor-bodies
in exquisite ascension all at once
body-mirror feeling-bod(y)ies
there giving: all humanity.

CITIZENS’ BLUES (L)
Talk to me about ’80.
The difficult hours like wandering souls
at the corners were assaulted.
Voices were heard on the streets,
a neighbor shouted, GUSANO!!
