Rifle Eyesight (Proper Name)

Shot through the head
 I'm coming up on an overpass
 Rifle Eyesight was lying low in the high grass
 the empty skull lolls
 milky cataracts peel
 limpid limitless swimming outside the cranium
 betrayers of children exposed by distortions
 his property swelling Lenses Alien
 shot through the neck
 I bled correct
 something called me back
 a bleacher fixture kidless grinning aorta plaque
 guts for abduction
 well my friend that's another thing
 we parted curtains to watch comings and goings
 the sun distended Lenses Alien
 on Lake Sedation some drugged corrupt husk
 scrubbed up for the surgery
 waking splayed in fiberglass-pink
 a silent space
 a Planet Pain
 but you can't bore a hole to a cavity where the soul lives
 Vaseline Hands
 the door slams behind us in a flesh lined heaven
 cities of coral complexity
 where drowning forms thrashed up from central densities
 having a stroke I learned a new way to see
 tea-colored trout lairs and gold frozen bodies
 the crawlspace grave he improvised
 believe
 at that bone altar
 oh I'm hollow and I'm bankrupt
 palpate its baby teeth nodules with insensate fingers
 that raised ranch lambent bay windows say "benign"
 at that bone altar
 oh I'm hollow and I'm bankrupt
 palpate its baby teeth nodules with insensate fingers
 that raised ranch lambent bay windows say "benign"
 but tell me what former police
 sits at the bus stop offering rides
