Tragedy or Stillness or Both


…it becomes life, staring, glaring, and filming inconsistencies: our big built souls, our Serena stars, our Venus cries: at deep allure, at deep panic, attempting to satiate a giant: our gut wars, our laughing intestines, our bowels gunning: our grandparents, that folksy wisdom, those folksy graves: at particular thoughts, feeling balanced, reviewing me heart: those classic, solemn songs, at deep inconsistencies: our aches bleeding, our faces swollen, our livers liquored: at crying frenzies, feeling resistant, or complicated, our inner person fringing: (those wild souls, those terrific souls, at Love a stranger to me guts: that broken grin, those shaky fingers, those stinky toes): perfume to mane, powder to privates, going through insecurities: this lively force, this power curse, those ruby red eyes: our intoxication, our four hours, while rest seemed inconsequential: our running guts, our fueled brains, at Love aching for a stranger: those radical thoughts, our future selves, as if it comes this way….     …it seemed a thought, to become obsession, to frighten something normal: our deep instincts, close to filthy palms, close to closed eyes: to imagine difference, this delicate daisy, this delicate machine: our fragile fragments, our fragile freezers, our fragile fences: at color with pains, at Love reversed, to find Love as unattractive: denial, negotiation, and acceptance: or trial, destiny, and conquering: those blue ribs, those black dynasties, or this strange, odd community: this fragile child, this awkward student, as considered a genius: our trippy head storms, our algebra teachers, our destined for life professors: our nuns laughing, our Jesus playing billiards, our Marvin Gaye’s praying: (at young instincts, this old magician, giggling with a diamond rose: to have women, to desire one, to crave insanity: Pantene and poses, this fear of damage, to desire a pristine womb: at delicate souls, this man as floating, this grin as slipping): otherwise, as perfect, those opaline features, those deep configurations: at plain conversation, to shift suddenly, while Love thought of souls: this blood/green stomach, those remote regions, to slip, dance, and feel tragedy….     I loved music; I ate romance; I pondered ways to make Love giggle: this old self, as now a lunatic, asking too many questions: “Like Damn! we need affection, we desire laughter, we want deep seated concentration”: this inrush, this maniac lover, this crazed man: pulling for tugging, biting for thrashing, or plain too sensitive: at gremlin appetites, to want more forever, as something we can’t escape: that insane lover, those gnawing, scratching instincts, while so tugged it’s hard to breathe: (at Love aching, at roses nibbling, at salty flesh partaking: a silent scent, a silent waft, a talkative lover: as quiet listens, as hushing yells, while too much seems to become weird: this rolling curse, this generational woman, at literature to imagine something so generous): at such burning, this heart-wave, this burgundy diamond: driving in private, lost about us, remembering those years in high school: that heart shaped derriere; those perfect sized breasts; those long, exaggerated locks: to die with us, to need us, where we’re unequipped: this symphony, this beige pain, this dirty orange horizon, this lost to dungeons: if but a child, our wild cries, while true love makes us better: nonetheless, such intense tugging, such elasticity, such dying to exist: those charms, or sitting after exhaustion, while cushion gripped gently—that foolhearted rebuke, this foolhearted woman, at tats and scars and deep vein wounds.     Five Wounds, multiplied by five, this man gunning: to revive in hell, to meet Mr. Satan, to wrestle and win gently: this deep lose, this complicated attraction, this man’s personal problem: at mother with fondness, at father one memory, to imagine how women stick it out: as mother’s son, as father’s daughter, this wealth sick with psychoses: at mother a stranger, to see her comatose, while barely a thought in her: to water eyes, to side a sinner, to see something quite adorable: that first thought, that ruby memory, while Love aches to Kill Bill.
