lyrics

Joseph Cassel or John Michael Ernahue or God, D-16.


I swept past Saint Francis in clouds of brass on Lao Tzu’s shin. I sang to Plato’s pen a petrified black requiem. I seeded a poet’s kiss to Nietzsche’s mewling syphilis. The mirror is a misericorde. Scratch a Joseph and you'll find a Jospehine. Scratch a testicle and you'll find an ovary. Invert him if you can:

your peeling Schmerzensmann. Q: “Who wrote Woyzeck?” A: “Buchner!” No, no, no! He stole it from God! Thermodynamics is a thief's safe. The trompe l'oile of a time-grave. They’re all its nom de plumes; they’re its inter-fucking dopplegangers. Q: “And Madame Bovary?” A: “Flaubert!” No, no, no! He stole it from God! Peeled open Eden with a sweet tooth to core the apple of the mot juste. But mot justes are membranes; the corneas of my paper eyeballs. Q: “And The Ego and the Id?” A: “Freud!” No, no, no! He stole it from God! Who created all the sulkers? Detuned the static in the sulcus? Their choice is my voice; this institution is a ring of heaven. My true mouth has a billion teeth. I'm a rainbow in a human sheath. I'm twelve miles of missed smiles. I'm the shadow cast behind your shadow. So I understand when I'm not there you think you don't miss me and you think you don't care. But drunk, alone, in a half-empty house,

I move the furniture when you fall over. One day, you’ll know. “Ecce homo.” In dreams you’ll crow “Ecce Homo”.
