Leafless Trees (The Living Room is Snowing)

We imbue justice, at rounds with demons, by texture a human Cross—as built in dungeons, crying for suffering, at joys our teenage sutures; thus, to breathe, this leafless tree, our rooms pegged with violence; as mother died, as father lived, our grandparents to kilns: this fatal breath, as kissed a jewel, so far an enchanted fire; where courage fuses, those pagan eyes, a swan to stars abed; this tyrant furry, as lived a sinner, our shrines pulsating sodium. We flourish dying; we die resurrection; we float adjusted through memoirs: that terrific chaos; our terrific portraits; our nights solid by confusions: if started his brain, afflux that rant, affixed to diamond tombs; to picture autumn that tented orange, somewhere our minds aloft a cliff. We cherish love, this trophy by arts, as standards dictate composure; but what for death, those longing arms, screeching for crying his return? It rents his soul that vicious purgatory, abandoned by illusions; as forced reality, that sector at science, while afar so near to courage: that screaming image, as cut to brains, while reaching at lose those charms: if wouldness to wings, as couldness to cries, our arts by cuffs as keys to freedoms; this venture we fly, falling by Hildegard, our spirits rapt’d in ecstasies—as but so tender, remembered in angst, our psychs flitting to battles—as chaotic bliss, this confusion as order, our treasures to lights an inner catapult; where truths rupture, into fine particles, our puzzles suffering from atrophy—if died his soul, to live his mind, we come to face our mirrors: that permanent change, as change by permanence, if flew his heart to wars: so cried his life, that living snow, that hectic churn those teeming walls—to crawl by grace, as rising by fires, that tear your arc we love: if sold his soul, so young to contracts, as abandoned to seeking refuge; that turn he shunned, as flung to futures, at peace that mystic fury. It came to arts his soul by frictions, fingering a vest of draperies—as tightened his rope, that tapestry of sins, flinging for flying into madness; that daunting miracle, as cursed a venture, to see it as sages—to flee by caves, as crazed by berries, as wrung as shamans; where aunties flurry, at pleats to souls, as rapt’d in hellish torrents—this mirth as sorrow, this sorrow as mirth, our deepest injuries.
