Mystics to Yogis
Our tragic nights, a bit complaisant, while laughter rumbles through
waves; to see our mirrors, to frighten our souls, to ask of our dispositions:
this cryptic moon, that cultic sun, our metaphors running amuck: those tiny
fingers, at caress his mind, those colors spinning ecstasy—as seen in Sienna,
as charged through London—our aches wrapped around words—at course to perish,
thrown in rapture, our bodies shifting through pulsations; as agony sings, this
dirge of joys—our melancholic bliss—as shadowed a man, or tender this woman—our
souls yenning for altruisms; if but that flight, to feel passed human, this lot
of brains as crucified. It becomes texture, our professors sipping liquor, our
psychs evaluating altered states; to come that mountain, scribbling our deepest
missives, while crawling into our memoirs: if seated that arrow, while cupid is
vicious, to have tugged a heart by oblivion: this sheltered love, as wild as
lemurs, this field of deep despair—as livid this curse that voice by arts, to
suppose a curious future—where treasures are morbid, as time is aloof, this
turtle abandoned to deserts: if music would heal—this majestic sunrise, our
souls would be at peace that garden; but more are thoughts, awakened to
cruelties, where unsaid flute was taken for normalities: oh for curses, flowing
into Mechtild, rummaging through Gertrude—at powers to embrace Eckhart, our
fingers trembling, as a universe bleeds—becoming this symbol, running as
falling, where dungeons become immortal pits: our internal grayness, those
beige twigs, but a perch for songbirds; to feel this art, at mercies to
convey—this wealth of cadence; as never forgotten, planted in soil, our roots
as fluid as our absence; that curse by memory, to have induced a fire, at tears
that extinguisher: to instill a furnace, right above our cellar, while crying
our banshee’s attic—those heinous chains, that inner ballet, those operas
meshed into science: if but enrichment, our brows amazed, while yogis step to
bat: this casual dream, as becoming sulfur, our caldron simmering unto madness;
to push his soul, as cultic as religions, this measure by chance our
psychology; to evade self, a moment to a mirror, a vision to trash bins—while
born at dawn, to awaken at noon, as coming to resurrect by sunfall: oh for cryptic
chi, as striving to buff mystics, while giving that thing that ruins: that
incompleteness; that medieval reality; that churn by aches our misery; where
passion soars, at needs for channeling, while broken through chaos; as more
dreams, or searing friction, this absent moon.
