Pottery Faith

Let that be for reason, to die multiple lives; and god heard, for a goddess stood, to judge a cycle.    
     I couldn’t stop, for driven deeply, to churn a nightmare; where women fled, and acid burned—the depth of a soul.     I knew for grandma, and such was dignity, to yearn for praise; where life was green, and death was myth, to feature the madness.     I sit with joy, even a smile, to die 9/11; and what for smiles, to cry and live, where thousands grieve; but this is life, to win to lose, captured at a red light.     We know for hate, to feel for hated—a mirror at an orange light. 
     I scream it torn, to die a psych, to know for this life; and god heard, for a goddess stood, to judge a cycle.     Tell me, “Love”; and tell me, “Life”; and tell me, “God.”     The days are visions, to try to live, a monk through a city; so more is pain, to feature thoughts, a pint for laughing.    We never could, and never would, to feel for pity; and oh to god, the deepest scar, to see for mother; and there you stood, a woman my age, shoving disrespect; where purple grew, a dream of dreams, and passion grew.     I laugh and mourn; a storm of souls, to yank and pull life.
     We die to live, plotting and scheming, to forge a family.    So more a truth: the real for the unreal, to settle in realness.      I love to see it, a person as me, shoveling snow; where five is ten, and ten is life, to catch a greyhound.     It’s more a riddle, for those made privy, to live it and die.
     We love with reason, a season for a falcon, to write and fall; in which is love, a creative vision, a teacher as a muse.     I love for thoughts, to hear for words, a lecture through a soul; and god heard, for a goddess stood, to judge a cycle; where heaven broke, to fill for souls, to love in silence; for this is wind, a treble beat, the temple of sorrows.
