Navy Blue Tents
We live existence, painted in acrylics, that furtive glance: this
ceiling climbing, this woman waning, our feelings guiding intuition: those bald
eagles, our polar bear emotions, this instance that appeal: as gardeners
pruning, or rabbis musing, or swords, evaporating: whereat, this mindful ruler,
this rubric phantom, our years to Sisyphus.
I ache with silence, pictured as pictureless, attempting to sound
syllables but unheard: this angst in men, our fathoms winking, our kilometers
growing: as Pagan thieves, or Jewish converts, at riddles preferring our
ladders: that inner swan, that precious vandal, our Caribbean voyage:
whereupon, this gorgeous tadpole, that leaping prince, our days to imagination:
as souls churning, our teas and cognac, our lemons becoming sweet: our
smileless fires, our reigns slipping, our women living as entrepreneurs—to cut
with reticence, as living through shackles, our women admiring lawyers: that
haven heart, as redeemed by gestures, seated aside something formable: that
witty gaze, those deep insights, this blueprint to human psyches: at love this
arc, while adrift those scars, at flames realizing mediocrities: those frozen
seas, this intestinal sea-ice, our winged concealments: to love as dying, or
merely nonchalant, where addicts demand excitements. I forfeit illness, as abandoned to illness,
moreover, at cadence with clarities: those reciting hips, this failure to
examine, our inner personas at tears: as arctic foxes, or plasma reindeer, our
thoughts bleeping into foci: those thighs laughing, aborted to satiation, at
streams composing sestinas: our repeated beings,
this segue with crime, our aches reaching into our romances: this mental
neuron, those rabid transmitters, our knuckles bearing witness: that casual
woman, as offered to souls, whereunto, this shift in requirements: to negotiate
feelings, or inhospitable angers, at forces reclaiming our fascinations: that
big eyed child, that sandbox rabbit, this swing courting our flipping(s): as
memoires bleed, our stressors through essence, our hologramic screams: that
ignored purse, our insidious riches, our men and women soaring private visions:
that angular mare, this theft by hearts, our refusals to loosen—our rabid
sensations, this purchase upon humans, our delightful slavery. I loved as winning, this sheer adventure,
thereunto, waging wars with science: our mystic unicorns, this mystic
resilience, our days to omission—if but for comforts, as appalled by
intimacies, while, nonetheless, captivated by aesthetics: our snatches by
breaths, this survival by fittest, this army of pin-needled emotions—to flux
with passion, that esthetic throat, this wish for soaring controversies: our
cod with rice, our whales to agonies, this furious water as insightful: our
warm baths, this flogging mentality, this abbess rebuking something natural: as
sold to thoughts, this pigeon plucking, this falcon hard on our heels: that
remote island, our inner naiveties, at sermons knitting partial truths. I felt a ton, above two thousand pounds, at
tyranny his bowels: that meter-thick plight, this melodic spell, our millennia
to refocusing: those simple goodbyes, our simplest lies, this fervent algebra:
where seabirds whistle, as chameleons knit, while evermore our intuitions are
held hostage: that lunatic moon, that sunrise illusion, this interior horizon:
to slice by practice, this praxis by men, while Love is prone to fancies. Its autumn rain, seated for perfect,
realizing self-delusion: this tracing by leaves, this horse to hay, our needles
abandoned to oceans: that swimming instinct, that watchful yacht, this mobile
fever: hither, a thought, if kleptic our attraction, or forced to surrender
gourmet: this torrent raging, our brains exploding, at such a kiss our
lullabies: that baby infant, as salutes our affections, while meaning this
life: our tragic deaths, whereat, arguing self, whereto, feeling unwanted: at
ever this dance, clinging to life-rafts, where souls destroy this mirror’s
inflection: that sloth’s existence, while suffocating addicts, whereas, it felt
important to resist: those palm coconuts, this vine of muffins, our plums with
pudding: or deluded souls, repeating our images, compelled to live!
