Pieces of Many Births

 

When waking, a silent thief, intimate indifference, deference to essence. Sullen storm, made innocent, to believe in strong resilience. To push through weights, redundant tornadoes and patient winds. Loving was transgression; asking was shadowed memory, as if it becomes eternal.

 

Scenery greens, western deserts, prisms inside, mingling with elements.

By intonation of sins, skies held in derision, souls wrestling with Faith.

By transgression those waves the arts by strength … caves, us, lies, life.

 

            Suspicion of irony. Steadfast seduction. Sawdust, dirt, mud. To have worshipped, like filth is marvelous, to have never a doubt, to feel reassurance, this was love.

 

            Waltzing upon clouds. Lost in a daze. Praising, kneeling, Olives, gardens. May the cup pass.

 

            Esoteric intrusion … truths trampled … blossoming tsunamis … greater abandonments.

 

It would ache in time, pulsate when driven, laugh now and cry later affectation.

 

                        She grew wings, floating away, adrift in illusion.

                        She was dragon, snake, monkey and rabbit.

                        Too complex for simple existence, too high for helicopters, enlightened, dangerous.

                        A thief of souls, sexual passion, alienation, torn from her reality.

                        Melody of persistence, sound of angels, guest of her body.

                        Devastated by anxiety. Sketched by impassivity. Ruined by reflection, by ideals … made barren in time, soil rich pains, the thief came with vengeance.

 

To deal with reality. To know her name. To hold fast to indifference. To become entertainment. Guffaw in its box. Muffled groans.

He was chided, taught to endure, assailed by derision … what has he seduced? … what has he become? … visitation … given to reasoning … unable to decode experience … many fueling Faith.

 

To vigil denims, dresses, wisdom made into art’s resistance … spliced in twain, tugged in chambers, walking silently, cedarchests opening, a soul becomes more of an interior specter, solace of doves, memories, sounds of before.
