Karen says Old History Now
I only care about the present well three things
at this time
in this light
we can say
in Deleuze on Foucault places things in reverse order
friends do
we can say one can say it is said at this time to say on
the limit
of the sayable
and in light of saying this in this light
I make a little poison to put in
friends do
this chalice
not enough to kill to pass from my lips
to yours I slip a little in
now a sip
these things through being said to say
to say this now
to see this now
to feel the poison take effect
take hold I make a problem
three parts
I practice
a charm
hidden in a fold of skin
hidden
between your lips
a secret passed from one to another
the other’s small touch of madness
I am forced to write in secret
Caetano said today Caetano said
the most transgressive
you can do
is play quietly
force public recoil
in private
in private recoil
from public sanction
I dreamt you’re a cunning man was repeated thrice
you’re a cunning man
you’re a cunning man
you’re a cunning man
if you know so much
and bit off his lips
why do you love me so
am I
not difficult to love
the turn the rest move away they turn
to their backs I yell
I feel the poison take effect
difficult to listen
love
a very rich speculation
friends
to whom I can say
this is the time
and these are the stakes of the time
take this cup away
