Butterfly Veins


…so spacial, somewhat clear, somewhat private: this fiasco, this ridiculous nightmare, at something intestinal: this heart-phone, this mental cable, so radical, so racial, so dead, Grandpa: this African voodoo, this index with agonies, as explosive a web and feeling goodness: so sick with chaos, so found in misery, so lost psychs are concerned: our remote feelings, this missed-identity, this misnomer, so afraid demons are winning: those school books, that semi-chapter, rereading pamphlets: those stern faces, this anti-conversation, so present, so frightened, while Love is making brownies: so many strangers, seemingly at good tears, while angry a countenance: to tap into dementias, to reevaluate something ancient, where emotion morphs into character: those found brains, that lost mentality, where in private one is damning existence: this existential, this metaphysical, or this raw ass pragmatism: so turned for destroyed, so ruined for damaged, so in-charge no-one is listening: as what to expect, from something so young, where actuality defeats good intensions: such embarrassment, despite coping skills, over a plate of Maruchan Noodles: so Asian at points, so white with mother, so tugged and pulled by something internal color: running out of life, tanked into a coma, so many years, such a spiritual heist, so indebted to schleprock: this feudal mentality, this tribal concern, while many are forwarding their best intentions: a student at curriculum, an internal biblical fact, your imaginative anger: so sensitive to mother, so at wars with father, while agony and pain and seeing it becomes fundamental truths: this deep depression, this moping around, this falling, gripping carpet, as so moist a dying proclamation: our sun-Blues, our nightmare-Jazz, and sin has been singing: this duet, this acapella, or something so rhythmic she awoke exhaling: those casual sentences, those rebooting mushrooms, while father is relentless upon an acorn: those elephant shrews, running through territories, too inventive to capture: our churned feelings, our remote frustrations, where fears become real: this imaginative force, this actualized curse, to finally look so intently: our taste in stereo, our audible emotion, our sky-crafted, while begging, if but to believe any damn thing a person suggests….     I win loses, I sin curses, I removed from playing cards: as never so pained, as never unchained, while cotton is bleeding: this economic number, this social mistake, this feature founded in something running: those grasshoppers, those noisy crickets, this serrated relationship: those old memories, while conjuring a good one, but times are so ruthless it’s difficult to see goodness: those questions, to ask about a cool person, as one launches into emotionalism: this failed response, this failed person, while growing into a human being: our sinner-beds, our river-sheds, our heart-cobras: those fatality chills, our zebra calmness, while so entrenched in something disturbing: as two-tempered chameleons, or three-dimensional monsters, so indebted to simultaneous gut-forces: our scorpion mice, our trenchant venom, while treading spiritual dirt: this man to sinus indentures, while granny peers closer, where it felt good to create prose: those full tablets, this tetras diary, at Love like never a storm: those Aaliyah lyrics, those absent eyes, or so close, such to rivers, to awaken three graves closer to restrictions: to have or possess, if and only if, this tyrannical obedience: to censure chipmunks, or to restrain a wood frog, or better, to cultivate a hedge hog: those roaring propositions, to dictate closeness, to restructure affection, or better, to tell a father what he may speak about: but nothing’s at error, and nothing’s concerning, and everything is quite normal: this danger, Grandpa, this hideous reality, Grandma, where Love was taught to become this mistake, Uncle: at our best to give, so vicarious, where unsaid advice destroyed a potential human.     We come to impasses, abandoned to mere suggestion, so enthralled, so emphatic, so false to self: petting marmoset tendencies, or gila monster fears, while indebted to a manipulative force: to find our shackles, to kiss our chains, while secure with this uncritical existence: to reevaluate servitude, to become proud slaves, while our masters are deemed as perfect specimens: this life by trapdoors, this devouring tarantula, at sunrise dungeons: as needing to explain, this space of subservience, upbraiding our insurrection: as but a seed, or but a child, wrestling this adder’s world: at free obedience, where perfect becomes insanity, as long as bright ideas are counseled: this freedom to obey, while feeling good, for riches indebt our future Ambassadors: this meat with cheese, this terse unreality, so pulled, so dazzled by motion, so sad but unbeknown to reasons: to wonder or wander, this intellectual panama, or political Malaysia: those round pearls, those internal tigers, this force of ten lions: to sense a drongo bird, but so at loyalty, where it becomes normal to die softly. 

Worn Senses
