Ink Swan
We break phobias, We break curses, We live according to drumming(s):
this livid dynamite, this existential force, this pragmatic warfare: our dreams
in glasses, our glasses in bottles, our luxuries purchasing bits of
sanity. I hear a swan, as casual as
theft, an energized observer: this mental picture, that radiant heart-glisten,
this buglike adapter: at myriad larvae, at pitted analyses, while skating this
taste of infinity: our closet murals, this painted armoire, our brains to
sentences as fleeing: that mug of coffee, this plate of spaghetti, our garlic
bread—as seething literature, at vengeance with algebra, studying scientific
truths: that inner piano, those strings to dinosaurs, this existence as
providing that space for choices: at lights by candid vision, at philosophies
with innocence, at traditions by marvelous radiation: that pecking pigeon, that
gliding dove, those squirrels watching but rabid. I live insistence, at thoughts by gardens,
peeking for arriving lost at inquiries: those reachless plums, this metal rake,
nibbling pomegranates in white khakis: our turquoise pumas, our sky-blue
rugby’s, our Diesel denims: this miracle voice, as plastered upon plaques, our
memories whispering during a.m. hours: as born again pilgrims, this visit
through mica temples, this Mecca enchantress: as lives this turtle, harassed by
this tortoise, at debates skiing through innuendoes: our smelted ontologies,
our nauseating ambitions, our interior habits—at caiman gates, at genetic
deliberation, at [the] blood type of existence: or mounts by ants, to watch
with ink, wrapped afar but so near—as hushes an eagle, at tyrannies with
falcons, swooping those vice-grip claws: this rhapsodic sibling, our joys your
smiles, or more this trestle whining for comforts: that inner settee, this
silent credenza, this bedroom ottoman: as fantast [the] swan, or graphic [the] mestizo, leering into nature’s
advisories: to caress but feelings, our emotions as splendor, this indelible
symbol. Its music’s life, as orchestras
wail, as sloths pause: or lyrics running, leaping hurdles, our ancient bibles
in Latin: that pencil’s mantra, our silent Aum, this dialogue as soul-printed
lutes: or ceilings evaporating, our acidic rainforest, this circuit melody by
critical moments: that panting deer, those chameleon colors, this ability to
adapt to both cultures: indeed, a faux-pas, for multiplicity exists, this
requirement to feel comfortable with humans: as postmodern vehicles, agog by
chaotic glory, this steep fascination with deconstruction: or nihilists
mood-shifts, racing through philosophical islands, while nibbling gummy-worms. I adore by foggy chorus, wrestling with deep
emotions, wherefore, laughing for freedoms: that intricate being, compelled to surf, webbing a re-knitted koan: as souls fly,
this gaily dance, our instructions coming through epiphanies: or structured
cultures, as both would exist, our intuition re-stitching realities: as inner
artifacts, or mental agriculture, this brain-flare cosmology: whereupon, this
core-cosmos, this intellectual waft, our linchpins sewn into critical
analyses—as mere breaths, heaving upheavals, realized about a second after
realities: this driven force, that wretched curse, our lambs with red beans and
rice. I mimic insistence, as compelled a
lighter-road, a bit enchanted by Taoism: albeit, knotted, singing a silent
song, captured by ancient genetics: this voice we stifle, while afraid to look,
indeed, at private hours lost with wonder: as pavement whispers, where bark
recites, as branches form by dreams our personalities: this quilted reality,
this hopeful fiction, our angels seated closely.
