Sunday Hydrant


…it’s a bit chilly, reminiscent of adolescence, snug tightly in a smelly quilt: watching animosities, re-threading kilns, with purpose ignoring certain feelings: that fair horizon, blue, red, and burgundy, upon a hurricane: such darkened glimmers, such radiant darkness, our murky emotions: those years floating, those days by new motion, our dreams further in hind-view: as men pedaling, or women jogging, we see this testy resilience: to anger by countenance, or to become chameleons, while distant enough to remain objective…such intimate thoughts, while searching for something obvious, where abstracts serve with syrup: our casual greetings, those steps towards freedom, or this poet missing pinpoints…if but that feeling, if but enough to fly, or to maintain an ironclad link: to keep us hostage, as loving our captors, while interchanging our pistols…that rare scent, that rare beauty, those life-held greetings: moreover, a feeling, moreover, a scream, while most are carrying something we must tolerate: where resistance is brutal, while insistence torments, whereas, acceptance becomes sullen awareness: that pensive nature, that solemn countenance, where people discount sub-surface chaos: our fluting agendas, our inner jurisdiction, or to lavish one with adoration: such soft music, such beads of integrity, at orchestra a silent contention….     …we see our world, through pure experience, and our reach is only as rich as those interpretations: that is, our experience becomes wisdom, our wisdom becomes filters, if but our clarity in alignment with reality: such dependency, such cadent resonance, such inter and intra activity: those stare-good flowers, those root-joy replies, as accruing subtleties: at clever eyes, or primitive instincts, looking at something magnetized: our curious loins, our Inspector Gadget souls, pleading for something born to several facts: our kleptic hearts, our thrusts through life, or pure fantasy proving its limits: to exhaust and move, to move and exhaust, where reality seems to exist through perceptions predicated upon experience: that nail through coffins, those rubescent appetites, or years to sorting through adolescent minutia….     I smoked a clove, given to unfairness, feeling a bit indignant: that righteous anger, through an unrighteous person, at thoughts, those days, where reason gave up its ghost: that complicated language, this bout with creativity, those eyes reaching into turmoil: this sad person, this need to exist, those playful puppies: our similar experience, if not too harsh, while wrestling with parents: our compounded confusion, our clear sights, while tussling with logic: that fair creature, dependent upon distance, as ever to instruct our intuition: as removed from self, in order to locate self, becomes ironic: but days are leaping, time is crucial, where reason must resurrect: to have such faith, those years at battle, while culprits tend to disdain inclusivity: wherewith, this subtle truth, to need a certain reception, where lack, thereof, proves an inconsistency: that selfish position, our selfish hearts, where many are mutual receivers.

…something screams inside, while standing in calmness, a bit alert to this truth: our daily funerals, our catacombs, and our tombs misrepresented: as men running for glory, or women running for power, where both are interchangeable: such wretched design, or wretched feelings, while wretched enough to forfeit liquor: this tale for today, those bars for tomorrow, while rockets strike tugging lamps: that torn earthquake, to stand in stillness, while something interior is reverberating off of several people: this thunder through souls, or that shunned darkness, to realize its participation: as summer grins, or summer travesty, where existence seems to surf on by: this man in dreams, this quilt getting warm, this night-come reflection: while daughters rest, and old feelings simmer, where one never wishes to meet eyes with one that knows: such to giggles, such to rain, while feeling a particular universe….
