Tender Grapes


…seams are screaming, retouched in savagery, composed with chasing hells: our incredible arts, our remarkable sky-terrors, our egregious goodness: filmed in sentience, restarted as abandoned, so many freshets—so little time: fueled with indifference, condemned to passion, at miles flickering into firebrand: re-stitched, praying upon strengths, so close to a masterpiece: this big show, while many will attend, our greater parents at our tribunals: this fear in deaths, so restored, so ignored, or too close to losing: our crossing paths, our innuendos, or dead, insufferable silence: those increasing eyes, such increasing memories, at meadows and shadows and glamour: our burgundy wedding dresses, our pearl white tuxedos, our pouting cigarette matches: this vat, Psych, this green belief, Psych, our years so disparate, Psych: leaning into ages, at antique ghosts, so flamed with chaos: (or adored for compassion, eating miseries, so attuned to some woman’s idiosyncrasies: at bed-talk, at pillow-comfort, existing in voided spaces): our souls at chatter, our minds listening, so flung, so fair, so deliberate: those hideous rehearsals, our lantern with oil, or such raw importunity: a friend to attraction, as it passes our grip, while fawning at daylight dreams: those tall buildings, those casual elevator rides, or museum portraits speaking violence: at ancient thoughts, such rich immortality, rereading implied essence: such a petite insensitivity, such a voluptuous appetite, so vulnerable, so warned, where men chase danger: while convinced with silence, this rapture in terror, so compelled to adore something impassive: our rules for endeavors, our gambling habits, so existential, so remote, so enlove….

…a mystic box, a mystic friend, while lines have blurred: those daydreaming nights, feeling detached, while Love hit its buzzard: so close those smiles, so suffused with magic, at tears or joys, a bit rushed for perfection: requested for mortality, yearning for endlessness, at flowers or forests or conclusions: never to have died, as when losing in degrees, such irrational, pathologic love: our bodies resourceful, our minds at treasures, a bit concerned about our thoughts: looking at behavior, seduced by kindness, while behavior is romantic but dissociative: those gray lines, our vague histories, where others are discussing heirlooms, or antiques, or inheritance: something normal, according to consensus, while arrogance and pride keeps one attached to sorrows: our re-polished ceilings, our drilled trapdoors, our long, discomfiting hallways: those ghostly charms, this intimate doll, where reality has grown intolerable: those talkative Jackson Pollock’s, our twin-faced Picasso’s, or cathedrals speaking insatiable holiness: so carved for criticism, so reborn for a second chance, while existence appears redundant….

…refocus, Love, adore and chase, feel something in its regions, Love: soar at arts, reread prose, dance so fair a delicate creature: our soaking or sulking hearts; or candent horizons; or this subtle, silent and salient flare: so separated from activities, so framed by rejected pictures, or so close it hurts where something is absent: at fragile passions, asking for incredibility, while reasoning void of actualities: our harnessed suspenders, our likewise emotions, while something new appeals to hermetic interior: too much fire, or too damn smart, where others feel divided: such fleece to mental phones, such microscopic detachment, while entangled and longing for measurements: those commandeering emotions, as never a greater sunset, while feeding from palm to mouth: a bit disassembled, a bit reassembled, at evening brunch: seas adjusted, earth resituated, our conceptions become fires: where loving is difficult, it claims responsibility, while early years seem so approachable: those showcases, those cramped closets, or those new home scents: such grown existence, dealing with grown reasoning, so effused by grown ideals….
