Call it Faith, Call it Ketamine

I can open my mouth and materialize Heaven.
I can kill us both before we touch grass.
Spitting fire breathing bars. 10 Hail Marys
and all my teeth are cut.
Insanity is a ritual is a meditation is a…
prayer, prayer, prayer
Pray the real live forever man.
Pray the fakes get exposed.
In the utterance— a vibration.
Cymatics coursing through air,
I can see lines and points and planes
and Time
Phasing like mercury,
like Language
I
Can
Walk
Through
Walls
O, how I am naught but ignorance itself!—
post the sexy consecration of our bodies
