really love this section of the CK Williams poem The Last Deaths

Jessie, it's as though the whole race is sunk in an atmosphere of blood and it's been clotting for so many centuries we can hardly move now.

Someday, you and I will face each other and turn away and the absence, the dread, will flame between us like an enormous, palpable word that wasn't spoken.
Do we only love because we're weak and murderous?
Are we commended to each other to alleviate our terror of solitude and annihilation and that's all?

This (somewhat lewd) CK Williams poem has been living in my head all night

The Last

when I was sleeping this morning one of my feet
fell out of the covers and my daughter came in and covered it up with her little dolly blanket

I was dreaming right then that flames were shooting out of my cock
and when I woke up with her patting the soft cloth down on me
I believed I understood the end of eternity for the first time

don't ever make me explain this

This is a kinda funny back-to-back (this is actually one of the Toby Keith songs I like)
