I Became Influenced


…addictive dreams and addict screams born for survival: this elitist circle, this pearl in vodka, or years pleading forgiveness: those inner rambles, this sick sophistication, or to touch love but one giant: those wellic do-goods, this traipsed agenda, and those sore cries: as mechanic meows, or strangers vying for matrimony, to have life invested in dogma: this sickness beaming, this feature at allegiance, where Love mingles with fantasies: this screaming sentence, those bars that follow, or lit to gristle this marrow prophecy: where Alaska melts, and cougars are adorable, while feuding these Maccabeus: those trenchant sources, this glamorous moonshine, while flesh at pearls depict inner innocence: our daughter’s throne, this castle of melodies, this melic catastrophe: where music becomes intrusive, and pantomimes scream, as cursed this office by advice: those years to nothing, but pure aggravation, to finally, somewhat, repent those problems—as redeemed microphones, or casual hexagrams, where pentacles bespeak this contestant—as confused about Love, to wonder of sheer concern, this wellic discernment….     I live as ruined, to die as living, while convinced about bipolar positives: this reading soul, this writing agent, while depressed concerning this dearth of literaries: as sunbathed macaques, or highbrow echelons, where something so gray has plagued for over a decade: while loving excitement, to finally arrive, but afraid that too much of Love would divide attraction: so more for distance, or psychic realities, while threshed by physics: as pure villains, laughing and running through banks, where reception causes this intermission: (I loved you, this inner essence, this blotted melancholia: our jasper scars, our mental scabs, as pelt before patience: this fraught passion, those deadly flowers, or years to behaving as chimpanzees: our private insanities, our wild grandparents, or this pot of chicken responses: where your cries sing, and dead for years, while blasted this curse peering at psychs).
    
I drink and laugh, at pure imagination, or psychic features: this dead moon, this world kissing grapes, or new floors a dozen to disguises: those blank expressions, this psyched brain, those otiose branches: this telic curse, this move to Century, or days to finger paints: this J Crew mile, this Banana Republic success, or youths to Gaps: those hundred dollar returns, this fitted suit, or years to sporting Versace: to impress a cop, to flee passions, while blacks are accustomed to having nothing: this mahogany bride, this rapacious woman, and those index rules: this Beyoncè Empire, this cut to bones, or millions on bracelets: those berets laughing, this fist full of mane, this throat begging for abuse—as livid a madman, to lose his first Love, where Baby died cheating her successions: to cuss and perish, to grip for lying, while phone conversations became a ten year hatred: or hours two sessions, or years six hours, to exert this brand of disgusts: to sip sorrows, or feel for goodness, while broken this negative zeroing back to five: as bleeding men, to arrive at sanity, insofar, as recruiting diligence.

…too driven guts, or teethe to lips, or damage to innocence: those rewound notions, this fleet of fleeces, this feral command—to die with penchants, or radical sloths, to emerge as something lethal: those minutes to psychs, this meaningless aura, while a fool attempts to impress, Lilith: as gutted and gunning, or filled with contempt, while nibbling white chocolate: this rehearsed woman, to find senseless this life, while communing with poltergeists: our bowels dedicated, our ruins in bold thoughts, where literature became this sacred vex: (those pupils laughing, this nonchalance gait, or this fool depicting a hundred persons: if but for self, as never for me, while writing fiction: our velvet rugs, our violet attractions, our vicious retreats: to give as life born, to something fickle, while, nonetheless, gripping for dear mercy)….
