Troubadour Tambourine


…as timeless souls, our tacit vocality, stressed, demonized, and cultured by injustice: if but flowery scents, or oils by Trauma, delving closer to our subconscious: phones ringing, souls taking messages, our secretarial spirits typing: afar and esteemed, bubbly and submissive, but a kingdom to few: those better lives, by amateur riches, while naked creating art: those public squares, those unrealized humans, our poverty orphans: so much running, so much silence, so much restriction: city agoutis, sawdust wishes, plus, one softer whisper: raging upheavals, or signature sorrows, so invisible to our closest family: amore was trapped, amore was gunning, and amore was tired: Become for me, exist in us, permit sacrifice or even deaths to exist: argent ink, decorated appeals, aesthetic legacies: smoky language, throaty lungs, raspy attraction: so sick in us, lecture and vomit, even heaving intestines: a dry fever, a flustered sun: so futuristic, so deliberate with lights, so cursed and innocent: those Picasso paintings, our fresco temples, our resurrected Gospels: at tears for Love, as meant this embarrassment, as designed those guillotines: our captured personas, those aurous skies, abandoned to adoring Love: our last repair, running into hostility, our classism, our restrained voices, celebrating tragedy: courting mind, matrix, and martyrdom: reliving ecstasy, reviving intimacy, too discovered, thus, vulnerable, and so unedited: those earlier vibrations, those in-wall trysts, at an enclosed and smothering closet: our deepest deceits, our repelled absences, so macro-managed, so accustomed to dying, and crocheted by Affliction: while never re-imagined, while never unachieved, at eyes clearly, but devastated by troops: this land of destruction, captured in Da Vinci’s screams, accursed for privilege….
