down a gully he spies skunkdog. he’s been skinned.

there is his fresh carcass, hero falls prostrate.

gets set to grieve, when, out of the blue, he is brough:

the skin of his slain beloved.

he slips it on.

its a perfect fit.

he is no longer hero.

he is no long hero

but black haired blue eyed

SKUNKDOG!

doggod dog/god doggod

the dog jumps over the moon

konya the shepherd

(for lenny kaye)

this is the story of konya the shepherd, the land was parched and dry and the throats of the women were dry and folding, the sheep had long since been slaughtered and no lamb had escaped ritual, none, that is, save shamsa the black, the people had given up the will to dream their desire for prayer and even the need for visitation, only the arched necks of scourged believers, the pop eyes of the lookout station and the ancient holy men in suspension remained, relics, that was all.
