Unfinished Horizon


…we’re racing and driven, our hostage clocks, our hostage reality: at curdling skies, or curdling feelings, or rummaged aesthetics: our days so long, and yet so brief, our music drifting into snippets….     …we cherish incentive; we dine with motion; and we tug our pillows: our minds cycle, as we slow our pace, at thoughts hinting to sequences: at rare insight, and overworked intuition, spelling our souls in gravel: those deep subtleties, our revving antennas, our bodies alert to slightness: as cheetahs hunt, as bears hibernate, our Time is spinning: those relaxed wheels, those wild cries, our haunted souls….     I relive it daily; these false imprints; those sensation reminders: at shifts with radiance, or pure understanding, to return to something postmodern: those eclectic reasons, this eclectic horizon, where collages seem familiar: this cave within, those internal physics, at this skeptical existence: our bars at freedom, our freedom at cliffs, if but to relive while losing increments: at sheer concern, abandoned to orientation, or sunken in mire: those deep escapes, those fragrant scents, a bit aware of strangers.     …we feel middle ground, where existence becomes surreal, where many study this midpoint: our earth with cavities, our pitted resistance, our souls etching messages: our tried understanding; our shorn frustration; at something seeming quite possible: to listen by life, our studies in earnest, our needs to fathom such motion: where spirits fly, our minds a bit sensitive, our hairs prickling our necks…those haunting feelings, roaming this vast expansion, while wrestling instincts….

…we become aesthetics, listening to sacred reality, shifting through variegated climates: our must for many, while condemned by few, where insistence becomes something gray: at several dilemmas, so spacial it hurts, so relaxed sorting through briers: our scales falling, our raspy skin, our ashy dreams: as scented souls, reclaiming our dominion, a smidgen owned by our Government….

I scrape existence, this sea of sawdust, this wheel at gradual motion: this turn through Time, this interior chime, or this pantomime mistake: our monsters for breakfast; our souls for lunch; our realities for dinner: at inward lenses, meeting telescopic horizons, or seated gently upon a settee: this ocean of concern, or this oblivious insistence, as but a form of self-deception: our fairer motion, at radical debates, to look around at emptiness: those sky-people, at sudden no notion, aligned in psychical minerals: our guts churning, our music silenced, while essence is following: these accusations, this depending upon experience, or this demanding wire: at shifts and yearns catering to mystery, while restricted from physical mystery.     …it becomes repetition—or mnemonic chemistry, or something at reach: it becomes inward dominion, outward gravity, and laws guiding something esoteric: at deep understanding, vetted by mirrors, and silenced by darkness.             

Empty Space

    I’ve been in this space before—it seems natural, the affection of energies. Such interwoven moods, a series of underpinnings. A differen...
