Strawberries & Fireworks


I gaze at a fan, I reduce a bed-light, I chant silently: such opera cadence, or emoted reality, where practice becomes actualities: so close to strangers, our remote islands, while suffused with pictures: angelic sights, feared tomorrows, where behavior indicates so little: those thinking boxes, so vibrant a curse, while every emotion is preconceived: a bit touchy, a bit hushed, where we enjoy such mechanics: fluorescent ribbons, a taught passion, so enveloped where body language is misfired: embers churning, music at tempo, and inmost intimate thoughts: so darn enlove, so damned for love, so deranged at angles: unveiled sentimentalities, unveiled raptures, where Love has fended for self those decades: so hardened, so naïve, while unlikely susceptible: to journey a journal, to resketch a mansion, so jetted, such a millionaire massacre.

…such mental fatigue, attempting pure honesty, to have found nothing so challenging: it seems so good, but life is surprised, and reality is playing its theatrics: to adore a myth, to relive a myth, so lost, while so found: at cautious steps, at shallow ponds, while attempting to feed flamingoes: our hampered feelings, to sense something dynamic, at Love, but Love is at wilderness: too much fiction, but elevated as fiction, to give but hopes and dreams: too feral for cities, too calm for forests, at sylvan(s) explored as something dislodged: our wooded minds, our flowery castles, while a sage built a hut along a seashore: fabled thunder, or a diamond fulcrum, while Love watches, discriminates, or passes a fleet of emotions: re-castled, in a new mansion, where fire is unusual: to picklock a ballad, to unravel a vignette, at madrigals reliving pure rejection: if but to fly, if but to scream, if but to feel beyond logistics….

…too fierce for television, a remarkable and silent creature—so captivating: a hallowed presence, a maniac mind, an interior color: too provocative, or too ordinary, while passion waits and roars and distorts shadows: so dead at it, such features looking un-animated, so raw, so sketchy, while screeching resounds a mile afar: such burning undergrowth, a coppice in flames, while Love nibbles a cigar: so Sybil with it, so alive in acting, as one cursed but blessed: those arriving funerals, this arriving feeling, where most are alike to retreat: so antiphonic, too believable to ignore, at thirty years with perfected behaviors: mother’s friend, daddy’s therapist, such sinister, saint-like snakes: too statuesque, for crowds are forming, at a strange voice, or a stranger feeling, so enlove with but a second….

We fret this lake, our daughters to existence, while forced to manipulate: some are angered, for it shouldn’t be mentioned, but hell to hiding and fretting shamefulness: an interior memento, so close to dragons, at fair and proud gila-monsters: outwitted, or outflanked, but pushing with madness: so far to reach, so close to touch, but a hunch shall not die: at practice thirty years, at humans forty years, while a spade screams silence: indeed, with daughters watching, indeed, a second feeling, while mother contemplates this new boyfriend: at something intangible, while life is creative, or a swan has cultic ears: so engulfed by privileges, such a specter at dreams, while those letters omit a postscript: so crazed about sensing, so at war with manic memories, while one has become imposing: as suggested temperature, a wilder fire, where weeds become humans: such enmity, or such violence, where one is relocated in self: through miseries, ablaze a clove, while looking into leaves: such song and devastation, our daughter’s eyes, while afraid to ask those lessons: perfected as a blessing, while it became a curse, as recently such a reservoir: those brown investigators, this distant profanity, where mirrors are yelling and ranting and rescheduling a second session.

All are Braving the Future

    If I may tell it, sore disquieted, greeting memories. Such soul-iniquity, grinding through havens, begging those last three dimensions. ...
