Bātin (Inward) & Zāhir (Outward)


…sky-foam fires, exterior form, brush, painter and art: infuriating pictures, mirrored consciousness, where life becomes repeated: a sadder song, at pure reflection, afraid to answer self-portraits: at conversation, or deep teal eyes, roaming our Getty guts: to sense passion, to adore myths, to educate an empire: softer courses, blatant whys, too informed to listen: burgundy carpets, for dungeon and knight, torn by deep reception: those bathhouse widows, those foggy airwaves, at science, religion, and spirit….

It becomes a feeling, looking into shadows, while indifference plays its part: something deliberate, as if correcting, particular behaviors found excessive: to demand certain patterns, while becoming attitudinal, as if one must comply: where smart is good, if administered accordingly, while rudiments are lodge at invisibility: tempered reality, interior maps, while one is forced to guess: subjected to behaviors, looking at intrusiveness, while such behavior is vindicated: “I need to afflict, so it’s right, and pardoned by conscienceness”: such black dust, such dusky atmosphere, while one stands amid a tornado: as some sort of hell, where others must repent, while one is oblivious to his sin: indeed, omission has occurred, where one has an inkling, but such, if established firmly, becomes more to observation than maliciousness.

I met a flower; I pruned sensitivities; and I was blessed with reciprocation: so inward with passion, so outward with frustration, but Love was uncanny and sociable: harbored expectations, a flare for fabulous, and a need for exaggerated fawning: at higher standards, but a bit those lows, at something eating her interior: this fragile flower, this yenning for motherhood, while addicted to admiration: this repeated film, this lack of insight, while determined to reap vengeance: it was delightful those terms, while both realized and murky, so dedicated to living her adventures: beyond greenhorn status, refurbished by men, while expecting complete loyalty: so curt those seconds, so confused those minutes, while quite arbitrary.

I observe behavior—this field of expectation, where we behave in sequences: so aloof, at deep passivity, where normality is afflicted: but deliberate affliction, is different than exact observation, where one is normal to suggest deliberateness: while needed to behave, where one is poking, indeed, one is trying to control another person: flustered, even frustrated, while we need so little from one another: a little here, a tad bit there, and our dealings are complete.

…something broke exterior, by a pile of laundry bags, while it’s evident our signs are lethal: this brilliant machine, or this rising poet, our disgusts for something indicative of souls: so inclined to break strengths, so purposed to misinterpret, if but to offset this creature: so indicative of angst, a particular laisser-faire, so hands-off, so mellow, while it distresses an audience: but what about pride, superior displays, or out-and-out behavior to trigger inferiority complexes: it puzzles me—how a person is considered dregs, where another person tries hard to reject unsaid person: if but to disavow, if but to point to a particular symbol, while forced to behave accordingly—where this, too, is demeaned: (if a person is unappeasable, how die to appease them, where a person is mostly unpleasant: years at this, as never a breakthrough, while one is cordial ending our seconds with something disdainful): indeed, a bit too critical, or a bit too prideful, or something slipping the poet’s grasp: but we must look closer, and we must decipher, while listening to our intuition: for if one acts ugly, while seeing this behavior, that one cannot expect anything but resistance….
