is this dada (or do i love you)?
by Benjamin Perez
let me make myself perfectly clear:
i am a matador standing on his head reading an almanac printed
upsidedown&backwards
yes, this is both the beginning and the end of songto exist within this sweet crazed anguish
to exist within this reckless dedication
to exist within this perpetual sunrise of bullfights and propellers
body groaning atop the tender machine gun of ancient fondnessendless corridors of chocolate tigers
endless galleries of lollipop bears
i am a hot whirlwindfirst: the delicious dangling
i am a wheelbarrow hauling thunder
i am sweet carrion-slow dancing beneath the primordial crime of the vulture's kiss
then the hot
redyes, i am dreaming electricity
descending
_______
(i beg you
unbuckle my belt)
let me pour you a sundress of sherbet
let me blow you a nightgown of bubbles
