Angelic Prints


I have habits, I possess terrors, I panic and regroup: I creep silence, I laugh heartily, I fall to pieces: this honest man, so deeply with tenses, while losing every direction: those bolder cries, this wrenching gut, at spasms so entrenched in thoughts: to perfume life, to imagine beauty, while so removed it’s hard to adjust: those slow melodies, this gentle lullaby, a bit of cinnamon to sugar: those revived feelings, as so intense, our minds debate our resilience: to have for deaths, to abate an emotion, while it creeps when souls are stronger: our internal doctors, this thought we forgot, while experiencing as if it just happened: our soldier wines, our warrior liquor, our cinemas upon repeat: those rejected feelings, seeping into intestines, while sudden upon an external rash: sipping softly, our hours crossed, up for clearly too long.     …nary a bone, nary a gut, or nary a wound: our palms to galaxies, our women such a riddle, so pulled, so gathered, nearly a hundredfold: those thousands, at remorse, those dreams, our curses: at something pushing, this determined person, this indeterminate vision: at laughs with Love, at cores with Love, to adore so much information through, Love: at screams and dancing, so lost with feelings, so reserved with feelings: as sensing intimacy, or tugged for ruined, while suggestion speaks to tranquility: that fair trait, that fairer deception, those terms frightening our overseers: for souls react, while others contemplate, where one might become labeled: such trepidation, such cautious insight, where Love agonizes a volt unto something unintentional: this leaping at babes, this fret in guts, while too evolved to breathe: those last seconds, this deep shift, if but to return, scream, and demand a human being….     I feel teary, pouring for sipping, plus, a guarana pill: at ginkgo giggling, such growth pangs, such ecstatic remorse, while daughters simmer a second: to feel ladyhood, this deep passion, while mother harmonizes, if but a glimpse—those bolder lies, this trenchant abandonment, at papa a bit too late: as never a correct episode, but ever a damning saga, at mother, or those images, while scarred for essence: our black sun, our darker moon, as both bled an early morning Sabbath: to dance so gently, to exist so harshly, while mother was but a dream: say it closely, die those tides, embrace what appears as death: this compassionate maniac, this Sybil alignment, those short, but too long, adversarial thoughts: as placed in straps, or wailing names, so wicked as thought to drill his skull: but life is good, this running manic, this candidate for survival: as never forgetful, as always thankful, where death should have swallowed this lamb.     …those eyes, so serious with observation, so deep but merciful: such war-care, such battle-havens, but adverse to perishing: that scream, those dreams, this voice: it creeps, it’s cultic, it’s orphaned: at oracle flights, but tugged by sanity, as willingness proves insanity: those slight bruises, our interior muscles, our intellectual tissues: if but reborn, as torn asunder, to ingest a losing miracle: this man to cries, this legend to deaths, while literature is immortal: so concentrated, so imperfect, while perfecting imperfections: this deliberate touch, those deliberate roses, this deliberate sky: as dreamt a young lad, looking at mother’s eyes, while mother was intent on building something adverse: this in-deliberate curse, those deliberate vines, at peaches and plums and total insistence: to die a smidgen, to live more, to dance while sipping: this inhibition, such held back feelings, where many are at rest: those open eyes, but more to witness, while so uncertain it feels good…!     …keys are ticking, pianos are blaring, a man was stormed into jungles: our afforded miracles, our recorded alibis, our days meditating through darkness: this yearly event, this tug by life, where returns seem impossible: that innocent daughter, that playful son, while our behaviors seeped into their souls: to ask about lying, to ask about behaviors, to devoid ourselves of mirrored reflection: we never know, and we never tell, while sudden upon a deeper epiphany: those angelic whips, those angelic scars, at something too angelic to capture.
