Sad Courage


…some avenues are closed, so snakelike, so demonized: the worst in people, imagined in delusions, while everyone is buying it: but yours is insufferable, such wrenching concern, such inferno axioms: to possess regret, to purchase rain, or such idyllic misery: our darker philosophies, our richer experience, so demented those budding illusions: but life is colder, and life is goodness, while we need a physician: so calm about dying, looking into tornadoes, re-spent, rebuked, and pleading for patience: screaming at Jesus, or yelling at Satan, so reversed for such behavior: temporal physics, intellectual monocles, so turned-out: our minds tattooed, such wretched mornings, so grogged, so desperate, forced to rebuild: such fluffy realities, or murky shadows, kneeling in showers debating phantoms: so filthy while clean, this oily disposition, those twelve-step enterprises: (but you need to convince us, concerning mildew carpets, of how to re-escape this melancholy): for I die to give, such philanthropic hopes, so cursed to have loved you: so bleak in July, so distorted in September, or so Pisces come fire fountains: at misery with inconsistencies, so thankful for pain, so erased, so cavalier, while hardened and dying, where ghosts populate: this daughter frenzy, this house torture, while our kind is a serious discovery: so classified, so degenerate, plus, such self-deprecation: those lying ass mirrors, this Kung Fu brain, but realities hit, so inclined to destroy, while a soul is reaching for brimstone: either an Israelian, or an African, or some damn experiment: this mulatto curse, this mestizo freedom, at something he couldn’t revenge: so second base, so touched at third base, walking through sugarcane, or nibbling upon sky-fumes: so famine for justice, so delighted to reckon your shame, while realizing time as an envelope: this mailed letter, this metaphysical scream, so stranded in Sidon: henceforth, with joy, while denying this pessimist, at something so damn cynical: (one last testimony, one last burial, while pleading with invisibility: this Tao by integrity, this cessation by intuition, at something too precious to become his daughter): those new gates, this new feeling, arising from telic coffins: such desperation, such pure indifference, so stoic, so irregular: this churning burn, this laughing terror, or faces running without bodies: so straightway, so narrow-path, such a senseless leader: those cold oceans, this bold insecurity, while pressure has made a home with us: trekking six floors, abiding by impassive laws, while measured by cyanide behavior: this running sky, this river dryness, this inquisitive chipmunk: at high school memories, something so drenched in roses, something too deceased to claim: this radical person, this messiah complex, so austere, so uncultured, so frizzy, so unintentional….

I dropped a magazine, they keep coming, this tease, this ease, those untypical dynasties: a bit too sad, this up-rise, this down-fall, this cascading universe: our personal leviathan, our personal gila monster, or so infatuated pain felt good: this fool-man, this deep shadow, at Jung a tear meditated: so sent to Jim Jones, so rejected by his secretary, so here, and debating purpose: this kite to heavens, this thrill in coffins, while Jesus wrote his catacomb: so afar with meaning, so captured by idealism, so needed for clarity: this wilder waterfall, this bathing in Divinity, or tortured for so close: this problem we have, this curse in parents, to give something which destroys: this cup of caffeine, this newly designed tombstone, or this Waco Siege: so cultic and flamboyant, so correct and termed pain, or so distant this leaping energy: so pulled in circles, so inclined to coddle experience, or so secluded love is irritated: this losing closeness, this winning misery, as one so indebted to adversaries: (for you meant badness, and goodness made it perfect, but still, our presence is a bit intolerable): to see us hurts, this square ball, this false image: at such hatred, for inherent behavior, if but those broken branches!

The Great Mystery

    I couldn’t shake inclination, a dislodging instinct. I remeasure all consisting of us. Such a nudging, sweet humiliation, carved excitem...
