Wound Match Watch


…does it bellow, born in chains, racing for freedom; so much so, it aches, it screams; abandoned there, spatial and redeemed, but lower than a turtle; that mischief water-cave, those terrible calls, but a phone, but a demon, but soundless cries; such raw suffering, a long time whistling, a longer time galloping; to arise in beauty, thrust by glamour, abused to witness it; wobbling senses, retrenched and amazing, by touch so terrific; burgundy eyes, a bag of snow-works, so alerted by action; crooked lines, straight abbreviations, reevaluated diamonds; as but a child, running through projects, pausing at camps nearby….

…it appears as proposition, or something viable, or a series of suppositions; our suggestive lakes, our skiing miseries, so perfect a dream but rarely attached; to sit in memories, looking at those culprits, where a mother proffers an excuse; this dead feeling, those killing gazes, or drenched in a teepee; aloud with radiance, held forth in measurements, while reeking above average; our days trying to forgive, our years as moral agents, our evidence requiring healings; but pain is intimate, plus, a reservoir, so cold to me, or so enlove with me; an opalescent casualty, a willing victim, while art paints tragedy in big black pictures; a tidbit for deaths, a telephone to Jesus, or a plastic article floating near seas; an ocean house, a unicorn tree, some sort of fantasy—this rain in dramas, this edifice cemetery, or walking softly waiting a divine nudge; fitful ants, wildflower hormones, or underpinning hostilities; to have become this station, to have lived such violence, snatching nicotine truths; ashtrays laughing, a young sinner without sins, or an honest man carrying too much literature; where this is life, this is winning, those screams afforded a dying rescue; hail-fire, rumored souls, and days since choir rehearsal….

…does it scream, this intense singing, to look at naïve souls; has mother come, has mother cried, has she plead to change—to resurrect, to be the best stranger, to renew something delicate; this fierce fire, this fiercer lunatic, while awakened at 4 a.m.; that ensuing argument, those disastrous occupations, or plain deceit angered it wasn’t believed; as damn the deception, as damn it’s blatant, but such and such called me on it; that damn fool, that radiant misery, while I need a certain level of inclusion; and please listen, society has rejected them, so they need us to redeem self-interest; this painful existence, told for more trauma, while receiving demands more deception; this furious flame, our terror with tragedy, while more pain becomes our gripping death claw; indeed, so low there, such fury there, while peace and quiet means, I’m losing you….

…wrenching deep denial, as never you could, and so debilitated; this fraud life, this discouraged existence, so perfect in plain sight; to ache a heartbeat, to cringe a thump-call, where leaves are falling deciduously; henna illusions, statuettes in turpentine, our bodies washed in melancholia; this man-fool, this idealist without suitability, cooing but reckless; cards speaking poetry, mother ten years pregnant, a griffin at this alley-wave; rigged beauty, to know for lies, while needing something it couldn’t exist; from where this life, agonizing blue shivers, at tremors with Job—so cursed for goodness, so blessed with dejection, praying for Anne Sexton….

…but never us, our mail in clouds, our disease killing our souls, someone those intimate groans; so dead in me, so close to me, while flippant and transference; this familiar cut-link, this psych a bit those channels, this alien needing more currents; afloat a night-scare, tremors and guts, fueled but dying; this crazy adult-life, this old diary, our sin and worries at bold confidences….

The Sentiment

  The Sentiment    It tends to matter—each pursuing holy armor. It leans into a desire to feel pure, clean, sacred and such. I never underst...
