Colorful Figments
We soar as spirits, while sworn to privacy—such radiant mindcaves; to
die at sunrise, this furious gun-war—arisen near nightfall; to harvest bones,
to speak sinews, to savage warriors; this thread of monsters, as angels have
hearts, this organ reared through legacies; as spoken soulprints, that inner
spywave, that outer skyfire; to perish to birth, this facial excitement, while
driven a locus as protein. We could but live, as naked jewels—our aches as
sexual; but this is war, this mental priest, fighting a fist full of sins; that
timid urgency, as forbidden woes—this prophetic love. I knew a heart, as
unknown that heart, at which, an airpump this heart; this frantic secret, as
spoken in silence, to state it plainly as unseen: that miracle mind, that inner
soul-slave, as carved from gravel: that tedious test, treasured as passing, at
needs, this lady’s freedom; for hell is passion, this inner analyst, as driven
by fusions our brains; while love is spirit, this communion of animas, at wars to cry a perfect kiss:
that outer dream, as gothic those nights, where beauty entered this world. It
should be grace, that inner feud,
where wholeness is claimed as works; as both to powers, this intimate
cavern, that log flickering at shadows; as gravid that soul, those immortal
eyes, as kissing his mind: that echo of wildness, that forest of graves, those
ponds at tension that curse; that gracious dungeon, purported for years, as released to wreak heaven’s
havoc—that secret by thoughts, as to read it closely, to fathom pure
forgiveness; as mortal a child, this immortal adult—if minds be cursed; to see it
printed, this engine of angels, this flipper to oceans; as cured our souls, to
grave degrees, at war this subtle sphinx; as sought redemption, trekking
through darkness, a palm pelted in prickles; that trickle of blood, as flogged
to breathe, standing nigh a portico; where love is rare, this praise of duties,
as ever a fugitive. We know appearance, this outer condition, as fettled
towards perfection; to flit to fly, this gymnasium of clouds, as every bar a
tendency; to cut a cord, racing this sexual life, as ever that heart but fire:
that cuff to wrist, that key to life, that mother to wisdom—as guided with
dearness, as living earless, at tragic nights but fearless. Our days are
cornered—we must adventure, at knells this cryptic whistle; to see with
passion, as newly born, raving by function those hearts!
