When Sound Cries


…minty rugs, or grimy gum, so glued and untucked: those damaged perceptions, as one ruins perception, something lingering in brains: so confiscated, so confused, so fragile and kleptic: our running winds, those air-legs, at something cagey but invisible: those orange meadows, this cage in silence, so battled, so ashamed: to love as dying, to have such peace, while souls are secluded: this village of treacheries, those loud cadenzas, so lost in baritones: our tenor violence, this tenor earth, left abandoned by sopranos: but life was gentle, those softer voices, or this pet jaguar: our sweetest candy, at longer thighs, such death in eyes promising danger: our clumpy soil, our musky vines, at dusk and dawn wide with pity: if but to fly more, if but to adore life, so sore, so broken, but an open door: (as Love would die, so alive with patience, so silent about language: it couldn’t be real, so alienated, so distressed, but such a siren: this frequent location, those frequent meals, so ordinary with time)….     I lost pearls, or muddy hill-sands, climbing quicksand: those years became dungeons, so destroyed by vengeance, so devastated by tragedy: something so easy, devoid of foundation, just floating this noisy ocean: such sea-salty weeds, those inlet reasons, while Love was such an inrush: those casual, venal, even delicate sins: our bodies meshed, our tender crevices, our nights sound asleep: as dead to time, this timeless dimension, such ambrosia and paradise for closed senses: our ghostly chains, our England dictionaries, as onlookers needed a closer examination: our footless love, our rootless cries, while attention is quite stimulating: this venture in guts, this planetary phone, as some listen, dial voltage, and disappear: this need in strangers, those strange faces, where reason seems to recruit its contraries: as imagined a riddle, so utilized through antiquity, while something goodness denotes a demonic edge: as intimate souls, so accursed for crimes, while congratulated for devious, demented, or deteriorated behaviors: those softer chimes, this softer giant, so appealing where hell has destroyed innocence: our beating brains, our indifferent women, our impassive children: so alarmed at daybreak, so confused come evening, or plain delirious come nighted songbirds.

I’ve lied to me—this interior catalogue, living as if Doom’s Day: I’ve been overly honest, in this critical vein, where such sounds ridiculous: those collisions, where silence, while ashamed, is of more value than loudness, by such nakedness: that is to say, simulation outweighs actuality, and darkness is bitter but ever with sweetness: this man to hidden cries, our futures upon repeats, or so devastated, so deliberate, or determined to remain an outcast: this syrup nectar, those peanut butter nectarines, or watermelon plums: indeed, creative agony, launching a worldwide rescue, while silent about sinning: this pudding with marshmallows, this knee high avenger, while Love was so perfect:
this curse is perception, such silky flesh, such robust angelica, our souls with every brushing: as glancing in mirrors, a slight smile, so outlived, so treacherously vain, where death is promise right so orgasmic: as climatic phantoms, our burgundy carpets, our turquoise beddings, plus, a room filled by plush sensories: at
battled chills, such an oval-electric-catastrophic face: to have ruined or rebuilt an army of souls killing time for exclusivity: this war upon mortality, this revving voice, while screaming for entrance: our immortal sounds, this interior chamber, plus, her portrait plastered upon four exits.

Worn Senses
