KAZE / THE NARRATIVES
NARRATIVE the first
Reposes. In a split. My hand. Something thwarts its . . .
Move. Some are crossing swards in it . . . The fears.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
I ask, my hand, if it can, as such, something whole, complete.
P.S. Anxious, stay, always, apart, my fingers.
NARRATIVE the second
Feeling. A step. In my nape. Then it starts circling. Slowly.
Around my head. Its sound. Goes in and out. Circling.
It pauses, for an instant. In my nape.
That step. And all over again.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Is it strong? No, it's not! Quite, quite a normal day.
P.S. Tireless, stalks me, the day.
NARRATIVE the third
Happens. As if I were not. I scream. I touch myself;
through my own sound.
In my own eardrum.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Disputing, so, strained, between myself and my body.
P.S. Aversive, I pull behind me the deaf doublings.
NARRATIVE the fifth
Choosing. The form of a saw. For a walk. Mine.
Rise and fall. Then rise . . . I want to step out.
Wherever to.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Started to like the sound of a saw. And compose, in it,
my stride.
P.S. Am high up, only when I descend low.
NARRATIVE the seventh
Following. In a street. Someone's footprints. Step by step.
I call out my name. And I do not answer. Then I perform
an exchange. And compel, the tracks, to walk.
Step by step. Along my strides.
I call out myself. And I respond.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Decided to look for a new name at some, incidental, abodes.
P.S. Sticky, lures me my name to the habitual steps.
