Even Dying Her


"Oliverio Girondo" painting by Alredo Castaried



EVEN DYING HER

The palpable the morbid
the conch bold bed the sodregs
the taut deep probes the ebbs
waves of the flesh
its nubile contractile pistils
and its annexed nests
the fervid languiforms innumerable
subsubornings of touch
its naked blue must
each lode
each vein of blood’s echo’s dream
somniloquent nights of high celestial
croaking that animaplunge us vertigo
soliloquy
how much it sticks without coasts
to the flow the pulse
to the red cosmogone
its emptied faces
and its channels
even biting the earth
terra incognita notorious pickaxe
eyes for sore sight the bony
the impacts of awe of more slack
any being on the sore spot
the gifts given gone where orbits sobs
of euphoria fog among themselves
whichever vigil attentively veiled
expected skeleton spouse
daft barren wake
the microchance of germ motive
encounter
already fugitive thens
selfsearching for free
the fantaseeds
even ingesting the earth
any porous way
the sole wide well of the pit
immersed inside sectarian thirst
for thirst finite embraces
each mouth
therefore the sum
such stubborn love
hightide loving the brimming
lovepandemic totem sprout of love
of love breaking out
the pockmark
new gorgon love medium
olavacobraniagara erect entire swoon
that ululululululates and
arpeggiosipiderscratches the ego
breath core
even exhaling the earth
with its trine astroids its species
and names multiflames mires
and excrecredences
its lassos buzzards love nests
of complex incests among loose bones
currents without drains
its neighboring corpses of memory
its light of naked crop
its axillas of nap
and its gyre in dough not less
less than other related cogyrators
even the feeble weaning
even the neuter untempting
even dying her


Oliverio Girondo
