A Green Light by Matthew Rohrer

“But what good is an incantation
against an Empire?
The answer is on the side
of the moon we’re not supposed to see.
How painful to walk through town
in a dented suit of armor,
early summer, the whole neighborhood
smells like sperm,
and it’s late,
scars of oral surgery.”

Matthew Rohrer, from “MK ULTRA,” A Green Light

“Just pretend my writing is like somebody else’s
What things are important to you?
I am deeply concerned about your opinion of me.
To you I want to appear pleasant
& then invisible.
I want to be an interesting story
none of you really remembers.
Just a kind of nervous thing you have, really.
& then nothing.
Nothing.
Almost an eternity of nothing.
& then a terrible cataclysm.”

Matthew Rohrer, Second Poem for Theodore (via grammatolatry)
