gallop with me. see death blossom with me.
or give life/pain to me. (these wild elements the wilder seas while
personalities are like oceans: such tectonic pressure, or devil-may-care, our
bodies chapped by pure exhaustion. by sullen wakes our epithetical funerals,
addressed by our own minds; to awaken our boxed/piano tears as craving sky
happiness. so steamed to adore or so shocked a response as energy might stem
from nervousness.) deliver us or deliver me or carry by baggage our sorrow. a
selfish man a stunted growth man or a project in its incipience: our thoughts
if they might plaster walls while wisdom extended its welcome. (rereading
Tagore or trying to outwit spirits while mirrors suggest a cryptic cage/a
creeping edge.) what is our alma mater? the school we attend mentally!
or, what must we be a part of? I listen to silence the air between words so
knitted by Obel’s art: such piano such incitement while too attached to
continue. (by gothic ecstasy into European caves while a scent is enticing or
repelling. our days screaming at windows. or nights tasting pitfalls. or
reading beatnik literature from the 60’s.) the beat of the drum the tyranny of
the saxophone or the agony of the trumpet: too many decades, too much rage,
while asked by society to remain understanding. I get anger. I vie in self. I,
too, get foolish responses. such tragedy given to tragedy. or palatial pains
becoming our pimps. where brains are whored-out by misery. (I phantom with
phantoms. I flit with fliers. at surrounded shores. (such rabid containment or
devious feelings where emotion must ally with trained thought.) our adrenaline
sore deceptive, as we cleave to maxims, while needing assisted filters: those
trombones or an arcane harp where we fuss over our monopoly: an impassioned
celloist, or an inner saboteur, where some need dark miseries; if to flip
clouds or draw humanity as our own melancholy is so palpable to us; those
frozen moments as a camera might hint to, while it appears but a soul in a
turtle neck. (I have a picture in me. as I compose it transposes afore the
laptop. in essence, I see a few people, they drive me!)
