Nomadic Courage


We wrestle motion, this interior fountain, our continuous observations: at jackal essence, tussling with turquoise, so keen, so vigil, and depleting existence: our casual highs, our latent lows, at existential liturgies: such soft cadence, such sporadic woes, so catchy, so tugged, or so attracted: at barely a glance, chancing existence, so pure those seconds, so impatient our moments: those fluttering emotions, this decadent feather, at eyes or torments or forgiveness: this human enterprise, our deadly moods, so appalled by feelings: a dragon’s kiln, a snake’s loyalty, so imaginative, so realized, while scribbling in dark ink: as texture changes, as ink runs, our nibs exploding: such agitation, over something minor, slamming a palm filled with vitamins: those silent, secretive assessments, while leaked into our public square, or such irritating encounters: such dormant spiders, so exiled to skies, as obedient creatures: those flustered rivers, this inner city, those meditative traffic lights: our sandy oceans, our apostolic warfare, or those shoebill gazes: accustomed to oddities, fueled by existence, such radiant, semi-extension personalities: our axioms giggling, our absolute fruits, or this raging trombone: at regular meals, eating regular salads, so meshed, so ecstatic, or desiring something akin to motion: those liquid eyes, our liquid converse, so tender, so moist, approaching a dry molehill: those terrors, those blank thoughts, at life, at curses, at aloneness.

…it senses our whirlpools, this mental language, our reactions determined by defenses: to believe those stories, our moving lights, while realizing such susceptibility: our moving meadows, our deep forests, while losing count of majestic trees: our souls by fires, our predicament by existence, or entire lives concerned with our condition: those star-lights, this  river bulb, so curious and captured by adventure: to extend this passage, to cure our meats, to slice into a given interaction: those dark, murky rooms, those interior, brilliant colors, at something giving its delusion: or so ravished, found in truths, where two are adult honesty: those intricate creatures, with mother’s features and father’s limbs: so sung into life, so challenged by concerns, at such forward glances: so paranormal seconds, such Paraclete incentives, our dragon minds, our cosmic children, their tiger instincts: so alive those jewels, so delicate by permission, while longing to mimic behavior….

…what for those grays, this valley needing courage, so unfastened at uncritical moments: those hallway caves, this trembling presence, such depth, such horizon, or pure overflow: at brighter wishes, entwined by webs, so casual, looking into something ambivalent: such dependable chaos, such inscrutable measures, by walls, deep deserts, or myriad confusion: so crowded, so pensive, at this craving need for deliverance: while never at thoughts, this normal exchange, or angry with God: those tender emblems, this tender piano, this reluctant voice: to share a secret, concerning this author: I possess shortcomings: so involved with this, or so captured by that, while missing those in-between occurrences: at treasured desires, wishing for such by rescues, while interests are increasing rapidly: such waning delights, such curious creatures, while true relationship wears over a thousand hats: this getting into, this psychic adventure, this soul excavation: such idyllic ecstasy, such erumpent agonies, or candles set atop violins….

…so absorbed by ponds, while feeding geese, a bit touched by simplicity: our chased dreams, our metaphysical screams, so screened, so imperfect, but so adored: pitching coins, repainting dice, remodeling character—this field of dynamite, this mid-sky mime, or this persona intruding unto interruption: so taught by behavior, so instinctive with replies, or far too contemplative: as made into observation, so believed in instances, while realizing our shortcomings: or simplistic intuition, to charter our paths, to champion our stereotypes: as kids run gallantly, as daughters gossip fervently, as young men negotiate interior tugs: this song through daylight, those antiquitous concerns, seeming so inconsequential: those majestic emotions, those mystical feelings, searching into our godlike essence….
