The Nylon Lion Attacks As Kingdom

I am leaving when the leaves fall

I am returning when the eyes open

I am hidden when the eyes close

I am between lips and lids

My murder shuts quiet

His sheets are shadows in the water

And the histories are full of blinking

And blurs

I am hidden when the inken bird covers

My youth and my back

I was not there for you in the panic

I was not there as the kitten died

And I take this home with me

I swallow your pain and stick blood into me

Suck moss and needles, the faces of burrs

The methodical false twilight

And the gossip poured love like greedy beads

Like mirrors I am your face

In the toilet in the kittenchen

On the glassblue sea the birds see

I am your mirror

Your echo is me

In bells and birds that beauty I saw

Etched in clouds trailing

Making curtains of waves

The broken face peeps

He echoes "I am echo"

I see you monster

I see you monster

My back and jaw hunch and feel

You there

You are the cuckoo, the train, the muffled drum

You say, "I am echo

I am cleaner of floors

Sower of sores"

And policeman in brambles and bubbles

Call the beauty to rest

Say, "I am echo"

And rise with peacocks

Feral and horizon

The beauty moved over me

And the beauty crashed down over my body

With wine and dreams creeping down from the bookcases

And saying "I am echo; I am you; speak me; release me;

Kill me and leave the cat to G+D and rain and pussy willows"

Falling like paws and snowing tears and the voice Shuts silent liar
