WHAT DOES XTC STAND FOR?

I feel like an ad

in Outdoor Living Magazine —

no I don’t —

I feel primitive

rooted to the rhythm of the waves

& the twinkling of the smaller birds

11:10am

I’ve taped the XTC Lyrics

for Dear God

into the back of this book

MY BOOK

is that enough?

Or should Jackie post Them

on pointsthruprose

for Easter Monday?

STATEMENT FOR EASTER MONDAY

 

When We Cry We Excrete Salt Water

Like The Surface Of The Earth

We Are Of The Earth

And God Has Been Trying To Tell Us

That

For Billions Of Years
