Existence Blossoms

We anger gently, to stare for injustice, to gasp and recoil. If only to consume—a measure of light, caressing a petal! It’s more invention, a perfect stature, a bit inhumane; and yet to crave—this very thing, for an imperfect world; if only for greatness, to perish to keep it, to die the holidays.     I barely say it, for such was said: We fumbled in degrees. To sit a screen, and see for

nothing, to ponder a love-one! It’s deep the glass, where some are empty, or filled with Pepsi; and silence the road, an inner chiming, to venture dregs.     I grip cigars, and binge a cycle, to come to terms; and blessed was mother, the richest insights, as crazed a rabies.     We’re more for rabid, something spacial, to guzzle a pill; in which is lightning, the thunder of nuance, a car upon

a sky; and oh to hover, as if a dark cloud, tugging at fears; whereat is liquor—and oh the world, a must rebuke.     We flirted, to feel the passion, to know for flatness; and only rain, and only joys, if measure be life.     I thought for love—and all the years—to gain a piece of self; to see us, striving for normal, affected by gestures; and we know for love, even a courtroom, to play for

jury; where life is love—and steady for moods, to see a human; else for death, to know for strife, to shatter a castle.     We live a bias—along the roads, consuming turmoil. We read it daily, and feel for slanted, to know we yearn. I shift a sullen lot, structured as souls, a shot away suffering; and there for love, an inner sanctum, and chastised dearly.     Its shovels and icy marsh—haunted

by whispers, a bit direct; and whom for thoughts, to utter the storm, to give a hopeful glare?
     This for thought: Who helps the helper?     It’s ever for known—and ever for lived—a bit reciprocal.     I ask to pause, to shift a monad, to reckon a mother; for thoughts are hectic, to toke and tug—and pour and drink—and pop for pills; and this is pain, to refuse a hand, for—“No one

knows!”     I watched and failed and failed and watched, winking at a parachute.     It’s often—this life: ever for torn, even for lonely, staring at a banshee; whereat are scars, and muddy tears, swimming in mire.     I felt it—to flee it—and staring at a mirror; and now for haunted, to rebuke the thought, to feel vibration.     Oh the wildfire, and flippant airs, to function suddenly; and

never for sudden, to drift like petals, the sadness of seeds.     We live it shorn, a lurid sheep, filled with contrasting colors; and love heard, to enter for battle, to reap the grief; but ever this life, to give in silence, to hold for secrets. It’s a bit arcane, the hymn of pearls, a gothic breeze; and love beheld, a blooming flower, to censure a mirror.  

Sonnet IV

    If I was Pablo in a feeling, I would assert love, I would cry fever—one begonia, three dreams.  If I was Neruda in my emotion, I would e...
