Kit Kelen #710 - bio note



710
bio note 
or 
the via negativa made new every day  

at my greatest extent
I was an empire
inter galactic
there wasn't the fish to translate me

I didn't have to go anywhere
tribute was brought
some plantinum asteroid
would have parked overnight

you couldn't help finding Planet X
then and of course lay claim

with prominent teat when roused
so rub

you just wished
then nothing to it
any star might fall

spring moist aflame
and all in bud

all would eventually
we had time in those days

careless with showers
shone with the sun

I was reading the daily entrails

actually I was a plume
don't worry
there was one of me
in every packet of cornflakes

you could stretch the thing out
any direction
they were all into it then

once I was erupting
pall of me
and what a bellow!
all trumpet and rear
laid dinosaur eggs

chased skirt
and I hatched out
delight of flight

rose
from ashes and dust
and so come again

you could burn just trying to get around me
everyone would nod then
all as of a mind

triumphal arches, keys to the shop
drum marches in the glory days
and they'd carry my image across

sturdy, determined
all policy, grave -
everyone knew where they were going

some fife and they followed
all into the mountain

and then I wore no clothes

they'd lick me all over
at sayso - the dogs

so see this little sheep's face - dumb
prise open the eyes of the fish

you could all join in - a must
that was me just fishing

but isn't just the facts catch up
or even just a quiet ponder
?

cicada clung
wise to a saw
like afternoon all summer
that's when I'm writing it now

and what have I done recently?

wild animals in the house

mainly I'm where you won't see of late

how I drift like a cloud all the day
