Rather than Self & Rather at Cliffs


…something so gray, to love beyond insanity, to need pure spectacular, even irrational: those hanging dandelions, this flippant cloud, those wild leaves speaking depression: this gentle magnet, this gentle flower, to pull backwards lashing out: this falling leap, rolling into petroglyphs, about something quite peculiar: this lying tongue, this lying history, this lying flesh: at beauty resistant, at life this secret, as one under-qualified for theology: those sorrowful priests, this inclusive philosophy, at something overly pragmatic: our dreams, Passion; our feral intestines, Passion; our quivers spent and leaking, Passion: those arrows, Dynamite, this future, Swan, at Love aching for invisibility: to swoosh at rest, to awaken upon flame, at minor prophets: otherwise, such tears, at Zephaniah chuckling, at Amos admiring, while something spins injustice: this vandal, at violent literature, so vexed doctoring by theses: (at major threats, to have something precious, while wrung for flung dipping into mental traffic: this Lamborghini, this mahogany Lexus, at Bentleys crying imperfection: those curved feelings, those a.m. cookies, at milk and tea: this atypical creamer, those creative loses, to remember something so painful: to shed a river, to ask for arms, to suggest a certain sentence: this tugging sky, this pulling earth, while it was meant for a moment: such lemon grass, such cricket noise, looking eye to gut: this furious plaintive, this defendant laughing, our money speaking justice): at something inherited, this genetic intelligence, at deep controversies: to remember something in pain, while steep those rebounds, to enter new relations while un-healed: that villain manic, those deep marks, while Love behaved according to lusts: to frustrate axis, to pivot a nightmare, to become a nightmare….     I’m growing strong, this fair entity, but suffering from humanity: those opera eyes, those symphony lips, so romantic but distant—if but to relax, if but this ship, at seas, at ghosts, at something incredible: as agony descends, as mythologies instruct, as dying becomes these rites of passage: at deep inconsistencies, dying and sipping, confused and pushing—at forward motion, a bit too cursed, while settling into an uncomfortable habit: this roaring epitome, those otiose gestures, as magnetized into something grand: this inner fleet, those outer fleece, at furious distractions: our acute minds, threshed by experience, where we become sluggish: this inner chase, if but excitement, while sold to something paranoid: that interior message, this constant evaluation, our brains becoming prisoners: at Love guessing, at Love despising, or so abhorred our thoughts are irregular: at major ventures, to meet by disaster, at Destiny’s Hands: those warn sentiments, this need for horizons, at self-esteem debating merits.     …so deceived and valiant, so succinct and off-base, where it felt normal to go through hell: such indoctrination, our resistant bodies, those specious arguments: but needing to believe, and needing to die, at salient, unorganized portraits: feeding koi, such sweet ambrosia, while so cuffed internally: this barred gate, those sounding chains, at nights viewing our arrivals: such breach and chaos, such tender disbelief, at moments wrestling caprice instincts: this battle in souls, this deceptive, guileless battle, while roaming this interior blueprint: as made to perish, or made to enjoy existence, or this ruthless, and ruth-driven correlation: to burgeon at seconds, this love for humanity, at something beautiful seeming unfortunate: our cries through parks, our small hidden animals, while so for passion it’s hard to resist: headlong and dangerous, at courage improperly, to invest years in something about secrets: or touched by angels, this treasure in diamonds, this truffle in cloves: our latent, underdeveloped communion—at inner shivers, at interior films, so adjusted to altering reality: so transparent, or so opaque, but, nonetheless, so wonderfully intoxicating: as olden tyros, or classic sinners, or something indwelling….
