Firehouse


…many times, and again, this sacred feeling, driving our sacred souls: to exist by cadence, to live by resonance, while attempting to ignore operations: this feral algebra, so lost to trauma, so aged, afloat a sentence, wrangling over freedoms: this infant alphabet, this ranging mechanic, where one longs for phantasms: those green fruits, those avenue yearnings, as peering through glass cities: a man longing, another man watching, while quickness hits like lightning: our proud endeavors, our coarse aches, our souls, our daughters, our leviathans: only by lights, only by gardens, slanted at peaks, gazing at peripheral glances: if but our agonies, at capital planets, where Love adored a losing man: this ferret sullen, this ape with sorrow, while an elephant nudges a dying calf: our minds sensing, this leaving witness, as noticing something is askew: our longest lines, as if death was there, to tiptoe a mountain of strawberries: so deep in landmines, at courage by drifting, where many have afforded one tyranny: (this musical heart, those musical dances, at ballet, at cherries, or something proving his dementia: this low high, this high low, at frequencies a decade running: our sworn affections, our needled babies, or living like stars afforded a fifty year old marriage: so torn asunder, our down syndrome universe, at something so unpredictable: if but a scream, damaged by wires, while thrown to silence: our tried relationships, our unfortunate rivalries, where in honesty we relive three incredible months): but life is majesty, and majesty is living, where some marry so early in development: as giving our best years, our elastic bodies, our elastic courage: this trembling passion, our bodies growing madness, while thrown for sutured by something incandescent: such mortal honesty, to live in one person, while so afraid of losing statistics….

I remember silence, this waking force, or that slight heart-ware agony: so at peace with dying, to realize a subtle truth, some women make living a sheer pleasure: in truth, indebted to honesty, but living something quite imperceptible: those florid valleys, this high-decided tree, where love appears but vanishes: that particular person, that every man adores, where she begins to peek time and again: our days at tetras, our pieces fitting perfectly, while one soon senses disruption: our ambivalent moments, our ambivalent breakfasts, where a kiss holds such reluctance: but life is message, ever in manifestation, at aches and oranges or a plethora of plums.

…we look for magnificent, our magnanimous scars, at screams or media longing for something uncatchable: our torrid exercises, our planet seconds, while drenched in rich ecstasy: that shaky atmosphere, while Love is so intentional, or sudden upon a dry existence: such medicinal chaos, or love so radiant, where  passion comes to peaks: our deep frustration, our remote feelings, as driven for something so terrific: this balance for us, this chase for our dreams, while proving to annihilate anything opposite: that casual mistake, as made into functionality, where a child is none the wiser: as ours is skin tone, or American recitals, flushed by river diamonds…our redacted existence, our redacted harbingers, where prophecy seems intermittent….    

Worn Senses
