we
live glass so affronted our homes made of syrup—so sticky such hypocrisy where
skies are orange; such burgundy helium so proud to die while giving leeway
becomes sickness; the battle in her gut the mountain in her skull if but one
opportunity. I heard a notebook it screamed her name I wrote turning purple—those
nests those nets this fisherman catching his karma. such tyranny such
tension while I set a match to tendencies; a stubborn soul, an angry animal,
while it happens by contradictions—the pyramid those palatial shrines while
Love just needs a cup of oxygen. I hear the rain the house is wet while a bee whittles
some soft place. those safety rules those regulations so gutted so pathetic
while slamming a Corona. I met one a brown eyed machine where one by brains can
change one’s mood—the fever, Love, the magnet, Heart, if but to live, Wanderlust.
We grip adventure we harness a smooth sentence or getting ghost into a fiery
night. so thickly her mind so threatened her pain while an entity is holding to
what keeps us low! I met another so young those years while lethal; a cold
machine a warm heart so sensitive about existence; by existential eggplants
those eyes too many tears where a man knows his faults! I imagine humility, not
as we tell it, but its actuality—the warfare those bellicose veins or running
to mother! such saints in mud or monks in deserts while I missed my calling; it
was hellish so strung up, while life was a memory. so captive but engaged while
a man praised his prison. sensing Paul or laughing with Barnabas, at some
terrific misery. the lower I could go the higher the message while tongues were
all around me. a gifted soul, she’s so polite, I see the molasses—the countenance
is gunning the mind is terrible the restraint is horrifying! I hear it ring the telephone whistles the
language is curious. such accurate creatures so deliberate to do as we choose
& plead for leniency; so much a reality, while to do dirt once more—we were
just at this impasse!
but locks to lamps we try to forgive until
we exhaust our doctrine.
