Segues & Thermometers


I’m confused about behavior. It seems a faithful arm; either we perish, live, or fight against the social standards of society. When hell freezes over, they say: I’ll behave according to others. I can’t fathom the myth of love; where all is perfect, this romantic chateau, and fevered through mere proximity. It would be years to come, before love would become rational, as opposed to this shallow fantasy: to see her as a woman, even a human, or rather, an imperfect creature—with perfected behaviors; this beating soul, while crystals blink, and eyes grow watery. I found us tentative, holding back our natures: I met her a month later, while terrified to think, this texture of agony, while terrified to lose; for it’s more behaviors that treacherous voyage, where charm settles into private thoughts; while to clasps that first kiss, this moonlit champagne, dining until birds come out to chirp.  The moment has passed. This shift has arrived. The stars are closer. I love us skiing, this condo love, persuaded in a hot tub; to love beyond closure, this misguided myth, shifting through grandeurs. Our psychs are pulling; our histories are challenged; our dreams are crucial; to see this fancy, this inner conviction, as to seek the closes parish; while love is courted, this meth experience, too distant to truly love; as days shiver, while words plummet—the souls of waking eyes. I love us in youth, as oh those frantic waves, that appeared so precious. It’s sheer catastrophe, this outward mirage—this soul stressing deserts; to rearrange pain, as to change affects, that manner of humankind. I loved sightless, this fatal affair, to ponder the greatest woman. She came with stars, as to wreck this soul, a woman too far that jaded passion.  The scents are burning. The hearts are boiling. This woman is simmering. She knows this name, to feel vibrations, as longing for more than charms. I tried to love, as one affected, this popular science; but how for closure, this mystical art, where faces have grown weary; to see for nights, that fatal angst, where tears dry upon flesh. I’ve wiped dry skin, as to message sore egos, tripping through vast lagoons; to skip and swim, or sink and scar, that series of sufferings; this outer parody, this surreal life, that too close satire; but oh for arts, watching the tides, as feral as repressed souls. Let it be gentle, this inner thermometer, as rising above heights; to see her eyes, and soon collapse, that closer to breakthroughs.
