Andrea







The Cougar's Song





I realized I scare People

It’s Kind of
a Relief
at the Same Time as
a Wild Screaming
into the Face of Challengers

The Endless NetWork of Creatures

You Cowardly Cunts

How dare you ignore me

How dare you stay away

How dare I remain so Secret

Oh it was allways my Nature

but I am Lonely for Admiration

I want to be crowned and praised

I want those who won’t cower before my Topaz Gaze

I watch you walk in the Night
I know I could kill you
but I am a Moral Huntress

It is your Friends I wish for
bring them to me
that I might eat them like Pussy


For no More this Anonymity

I want rekNown as Wide as the Sky

I want All your Privilege

I want to get you High

on my Light and Springing Steps

My Rage is Ego

My Creativity is Boundless

My Glory is Due

Hand it to me on a Heart-Shaped Platter
Gold as my Purr
or I will gut you






We made Love on an Abandoned Work Site




My unConscious
that

Sinister Clown

likes to show me
Things
I’d prefer
to forget

Oh my Love

you were driving in your SUV
my Sister and me in the
Passenger Seats

It was the HighWays of Northern BC
and we were Both inTerested
my Sister and me

( I know what that means )

but

she was too Young for you

It seems you were in Trouble
You’d smashed a teleVision Screen
wrapped your X in a Purple Scarf
and thrown her off a
Ravine

We were going to an Empty
Work Site
for Road Building
or SomeThing
to wait for my Mother

( I’m not Sure what that means )

There was a Room for me in the Trailer

I put a Green Poster on the Wall

I was Naked
with the Door Open
smoking Weed
and could see my Sister
down the Hall
acting Silly

She knew
she was too Young for you

A Real Nice
Girl


You saw me Naked and I

vanished

behind
the Door

You came into my Room

and I sat down on the Bed

You sat beside me

I think
we kissed
or SomeThing

It didn't Hurt

Then we were looking out the Window
beyond the
Empty Lot
at a Wild River
like the One at Morricetown Canyon
and I said

“I’m going back to my BoyFriend
now”

You seemed a Bit disGruntled
but what did you xpect?
I was sleeping beside him Right then
wherever the
Waking World
was


The Lot was Big and Full of Abandoned Machinery


Mountains in the disTance


Mountains Right up Close


It used to be a Mill?


Near Kitwanga?


My Mother arrived

She said she and my Father were thinking of
buying
the Lot

I said they
should
do it

My Mother said
there was
Much Work
needed to be done
to get the Lot
Ready
for Business

whatever Business
that
was

It was NightTime
and there was Piping
and a Bare Bulb
above my
Mother’s Head

Drip

Drip

went the Piping

I said I would help
I allways have Visions of Run-down Lots
this being Only One Xample

It was Probably a Sign
of the Things to come

“My Boy Friend will help”
I told my Mom
“He is in Need of a Job”

You said you would help too
and I was Happy
because I am so
Very Fond
of you


Off HighWay 16
on the Road to Kitwanga
there is a Rundown
Mill

I used to stare at it
as my Family drove by
on the Way
to my GrandParents’ House
in the Woods on the Mountain
beyond the Gitxsan Totem Poles


I think you like me
that’s why you're allways
in my Dreams
acting like yourSelf
Only a Little More
together


So you’ll be Glad to know
we All lived Happily ever after
my BoyFriend and you
and All of our
Friends

 It was like that Party
the Other Day

( Only my Mom was there )

EveryOne was in a Shipping Crate
a Red Light was on
the Air was Hot
there were Christmas Lights
hung from the Ceiling of the Crate
and we were acting like People in
Close Proximity
making Weird Art
together

Poètess Maudite and Glass House



Staring at the Ocean
waiting for the

tSunami

at One of the Windows
of the

Glass House

Which of my Values would I have to give up
for the

Glass House?


My Loves Never had those Values

that is why they are my Loves

Now, let me build it for them


I turn from the Window

I leave the Glass House
behind

I drive along the Shore in a
BMW

I know they catch Fools

Other Fools go Mad

Fools who are Wrong

I go to Bed Every Night
knowing Fools

Fools don’t know a Thing

Not like me



Why don’t we
do SomeThing?

Why doesn’t the Government
do SomeThing?

We are the Government

To save Face

Do it while you have a Face to save
Lady

Black Bloc swarms
the Face

God

We are Ants

All of us

( eSpecially them )

Dare me

and say Hello to my
Glove Compartment

say Hello
to the Barrel
of my
Will



Look at me

surrounded by
Physical Love
and
Mechanical Love

You know that Song by Bjork?

You will be

given

You have to

trust it


Any Number of Days I spend driving through
subUrbs

thinking about Swingers and
Teetotalers

thinking about Boarded-up
Hotels

Anarkists watching from the
Balconies

thinking about Guns and
Narco States

thinking about Guidos and Women with Big Thighs who
fuck them
Silly


My Life is a Porn Film

EveryOne is a Bad Actor

If this were a Porn Film
EveryOne would be a
Great Actor


These Laws are BullShit

I need a Lawyer who loves me

I need SixTeen Million Lawyers
who love me

I need a Populace to
xalt me

or I am going to cry like when I was a TeenAger

sobbing and beating the Ground with my Fists


I hate the Government


And this
is a Columbian
Song


These Songs of Freedom


You have to


trust it


Leave me be

or we’ll see

the EarthQuakes

shake

and rattle

the Ground

beneath

the Feet

of Saints

Poètess Maudite and Prime Minister - Battle Hymn




Your Laws are an Xcuse to fill

There’s SomeThing we gotta tell you


here, lean in Close


Behind your Perfect Order

there is Only Perfect

Chaos 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Four Years Clean





I am so Proud of you

the Things you’ve
overcome

You are a Good Man

the Best Man

a Creature of the Pacific Coast

and Lately I’ve been dreaming
swaddled in these Blankets
surrounded by Snow
under the Northern Constellations

of People I have known

They emerge
from the Crystal
of my
Mind
to play themSelves
Only Different

At Fist I did not know who they were

One was Ambitious and Confident
and I thought she was anOther
until I realized
there is no Other

The Second followed me through the HallWays
of a Rooming House
or the Visions
of Steppenwolf
and I recalled I had been his Friend
More than AnyThing

A Chain Link Fence appeared
and a Row of Trees on a Grassy Bank

The Third was a Tall Man with Tourmaline Hair
who asked me Questions
about Love from his Arm Chair
and as I answered I realized that
he was you

so he stood and revealed himSelf as you

Then I knew you were a Real Man

a Man for Skis among Spruce

a Man before whom my Thoughts would drift away

unNecessary as Leaves in the Winter

the Man
of whom
I dreamed
when I rode
through the Fraser Canyon

 it’s Little Towns huddled
to the Cliffs

up into
the Caribou
where the Pines roll out of
Dunes

The Practical Man

The Man who is Good with his Hands

Who doesn't understand EveryThing I say but
doesn’t care
and with whom I can disappear
into Homes and Horses
Children and Gardens
on a Farm
where noOne dare guess
who we are
and the Government
can be sent
away
with Guns
and Poems

Authority vanished into the Land

where the Spirits make Sense to me

the Eagles
Snakes
and Rivers talk

and we are a Complicated Form
of the Whole
who understands the Rain
and prays in Observations of the Air
its Sights and Smells and Sounds

Your Future
it’s
out there
Somewhere

and for that

I will make Two People

One of Stone and One of Bone

One of Mountain Glaciers

One of Storm Clouds stuck by Sun

Deep as the Ocean

and Clever as Rivers

for the Glory of you



If Only this were True

Song for DaXon





ToDay
I am
in Love
with Vancouver
which Once
I hated
for here
I
stand
beneath
its
Green
Leaves
with a
Warrior
of its
Streets
who dares
bring down
its Oceanic
Towers
and fears
for the
Health
of its
People
who fights
the Rich
who made
his Beauty
and has not
been corrupted
by my Drugs
nor my Love
of him
though he could learn of the rEvolutions
of Glaciers
and Ant Hills
and the Sacred
Worthiness
of Jokes

to see my
Solitary Visions
which are
the Visions
of Flowers
Hideous and Smiling
stuck to the Tips
of the Tentacles
of the Octopus
of the Void

A Pretty Face
that Lies
upon
a Pretty Soul
Proof
not All
the World
is Sinister
but surges with
Altruism
Old
as the First
Trembling
Motes
of Dust

Ours was the Language
of the Birds
there
beneath
the Green
Shade
of the Leaves
of the Trees
of Kitsalano
where I loved him
who was so disTant
and the City
that contained us

Faerie Tale about a Girl from the Woods




I came prancing
from
unTamed
Landscapes

Landscapes
to be razed
for Commerce
and Progress

Progress
I could not decry
though I tired
not I
for I
had danced
like a Nymph
in the Pool
of its Ease
and Complxity

Progress that glittered
like a Computer Screen
and tasted like Money

I came and my Eyes were Wild
and
Harsh as Bramble
from
Lost Loves

I descended like the Cackling Witch
the Apprentice of the Witch
the inVisible Witch
my Witch
my Muse

Not knowing
how to go about
my Days
I was to Men like the Baby Koala

I felt Bad SomeTimes
but
Other Times
I raged
at my Feebleness
I raged like Gods upon Mortals
for I have allways believed in the Greatness of Mortals

But I sauntered on
Part of Space and Time
Catholic Bells ringing in my Head
God a Withered Old Man before my Laughter

I threw Flowers and Boughs at him
screaming, “A New Day is dawning!”
and he honoured my Rigorous Loathing
honoured my Endless Growing
honoured my Mother
the Glass Innards of inFinity

cause I Half Crazy
tossed mySelf yearning
into Gasoline Rainbow Parking Lot Puddles of Ambition
looking for Whispers on the Poetic Thread
of Genius
of Ghosts
wanting them
wanting to join them
in the Heaven / Hell
of Bards

At the Long Table
of Bards
with an Abundance
of Absinthe
and Grass

But I am
Constantly
getting off Track

for Xample
by you
Oh, yes, you
Beautiful you

Justified
yes, Justified
need Muses
All Great Artists need Muses

I will sketch a Million Drawings of you

I will sculpt your Ass and Groin

I will paint your Eyes

Lucky you

You have found a Lady with a Head of Potions
draped in the Moss of her Country
living in Trees
singing

Of a Terrible Temper and Sharp Teeth
and Tears to fill the Lakes of her Wildernessess
who will play her Puma’s Games with you
she’s so Eager

She’s been dreaming of them this
Whole Time
