Fuckn Janus

(1/4/17)


th dog sits
in th empty room
it is there forever
an absolute.
it was th absence
before matter
now it shoots
its hungry looks at me.

th dog is
outside th papershop today
pavement edge
as i hurry past
i am harried
and my anonymous grin
is fast
disappearing
it will bark
and i will scream
and i will not stop screaming.

th dog is everywhere this morning
this afternoon
this evening
next week
was everywhere
last year
here now
it is everyone i meet
i cannot speak to you about it
my lips curl back.

it will do no good but
i will hang its lead up.
