Evil Blooms

 

Evil resides in me, rod, line & sinker



I ledger it meticulously,

from behind,

as it scolds itself, headbutts, apologizes



I pacify it

with a full defecation

out in the morning toilet

I notice its two towels;

a burgundy one for planned wickedness,

a yellow one for spontaneous agonies



I run, shove, scuttle

into the mountain cabin's grasp in a diary,

feel evil insist, dropping words, one by one

in migraine-attacked stagger

over the teeth's fence,

out into the epilepsy of the environment,

to be surrounded by broad legged blame,

received, redirected against the grain,

against the flow



Evil dwells within me



I calculate its algorithms

in dinner table marketings



Control itches in my fingers,

gropes in my fumbles



The pots fit neatly together;

may the handles cooperate

into a mimicry of sunlight;

a dream of consensus in cloudless skies



Evil curls in the grey weather;

the streets of Helsingborg screech;

the tenements shabby, impersonal, addressed



The evil inside me takes note of me

with pencils,

fits me into the reliefs of Persepolis

alongside a couple of Japanese guys,

Kozo & Yozi,

who were on their way from Paris to wisdom,

but now their spirits' attire remains

in a morning-chilled Shiraz



Evil resides in me,

as well as in the crowds,

with a certain right



I happily run down a muddy slope

in a dream;

so damn fast;

my observations bounce

through the street grids of the world,

with pure malice,

but evil nails them shut,

so I write,

eye to eye with myself;

Evil Blooms;

a measureless, Francofile endeavour
