Perpetrators of Art
The Paperbacks
We're engaged in the task
of swapping purity for depth
to perpetrate our art
with the authority our broken heroes had.
I want to do more than tolerate your lies.
If only we could be relieved of all we've done
in keeping these fences in such marvelous repair
to distract from what was never there.
Your unappointed questions have
the same effect as a flashlight
playing back and forth
across a stranger's dark and cluttered room.
I want to do more than tolerate your lies.
If only we could be relieved of all we've done
in keeping these fences in such marvelous repair
to distract from what was never there.

Communicated Through Blood
Grey Skies
Hesitation Marks
Holocaust Art
I Suffer This Like a Dream
If I Make it Through This Winter
In the Absence of Notable Guests

Letters Vs. Numbers
Local Celebrities
Make Art
My Landscape is Not Land
No Fatalities
Plans in Advance
Publish or Perish
Raise a Styrofoam Cup
Rattled By Failure

Slow Learners
The New Poverty
Things Get Abstract
Who Will Run the Starfish Hospital?
