English Poetry Book from Eulogy for the Human Race Thursday by Wolf Larsen I reach into all the buildings and begin pulling extinct people out of them and they all smile squirming alphabets at me, then I sing a speeding-lurching- dashing-roaming-saxophone and topple all the cities with exploding music until our bodies are drenched with night, my love I grab mountains in my hands and I give them to you, I throw steel mills and high-rises across the sky to tell you that I love you, I grab all the oceans in my hands as an offering to you, I hold the voices of your family in your ear so you will smile and paint new york city with your smile - I pour my symphonies across the universe so that the sun and the planets will all be drenched with my love, I turn your husband into the blue sky so he can watch our bodies creating the moon and the mountains together, I want to give you six billion people smiling at you with all my love for you, I erase every border in the world for you, I give you God knelling at your feet
place into your hands every -----, every church, every synagogue - so that every night we will make love in the most beautiful temples in the world, I give you every man in the world as our personal eunuch serving us grapes and wine, I give you every musician painting the world with all our happiness, and I will wrap my arms around you until there is no more world, until the stars have ceased to exist, until the entire continent melts and flows into you, and we will smile extravagantly all the way to union station, and you will return to your home in the suburbs, and your husband will ask you how your day went?

a thousand blue skies Air raid sirens are symphonies are hate and greed, they are the screechings of humanity on the edge of extinction Every poem, every concerto, every painting and sculpture will all be waste When the nuclear bombs are on the way grab the sky and turn it upside down Kill your own children Watch as your mother rips out her body organs one by one and places them into your hands Eat the furniture in your room Swallow cyanide with a loved one Begin masturbating Swallow your family Think of the human race drowning and there are no lifeboats Explain to your children what nucler war means, tell them they have ten minutes to live Try to write a poem that no one will ever read in the remaining nine minutes Pray to a god that can not exist Pray for mercy that will not come Copyright © Wolf Larsen 1998, contemporary poems online in English and Spanish
