by absence or
glitter so alive a second in straps. such a straightjacket such cuffs while we
fight to get it back. so medicinal so many needles while a Hindu draws his
blood. the touch is the frequency the angst becomes the battle. so mythic such
a centaur or a griffin half human. so many pieces into our valley while cats
are enormous. by comfort or metanoia so deceived by self. I saw a ghost it was
late night the psych would call it mental manifestation. such syzygy, aligned in
a moment a pen a leaf a miracle. I saw a feeling it waft on high such beauty in
ugliness. a nameless man a naked man a numbered man. the coffin of his birth
the legacy of his suffering such wilder flowers. thunderous fatigue so low it churns
while this is mother’s month. it slipped him so uncritical while fumbling
through reasons. a mad feeling a daughter with pride a granny at the pulpit.
the hybrid child the mistake in the class the courage we have in protest. by
mainstage by gravity or sick a feeling if it would go its distance. we wonder
concerning yall we dance despite the wall it comes to a universal street call.
by a greenfly so abandoned to ideals while most forfeit critical analyses. so
touched by thoughts so aloof to dying where a person forgets those interior
struggles. but a blackfly or something unspeakable while he did nothing wrong.
such intimidation such blatant moons while love is forged over a lifetime. to
wear a woman’s trousers to sport a judge’s cloak or to carry a lawyer’s
briefcase—as crazed souls playing our parts while luxury has but one hat. a
palm for a hanky a horse for a daughter or healing for hurting—a black island
those black diamonds so casual a feeling fretted by spouses. to rethink to negotiate
to understand nothing comes without raw fury.
