Slingshot Empire


…at Sunday eyes, such glossy spirits, such sweet melody: as God drifts, while sipping orange phantoms, or realized in breaths: so fantastic, so immediately distant, as both understand outgrowths: those islands closing, shortened with time, while sediments speak about centuries: made lucid, Love, so alarmed, Love, this interior Atlas, Love: alas, so alone, so free, if but to repeat history: cabbage with links, gumbo with rice, or souls reaching: familiar currents, familiar waves, while art carries its whales: our willows becoming oaken, our Batman becoming Robin, or Heathcliff surrendering his castle: our rare mistakes, our glowing countenances, so complete, attempting to de-scrabble cedar-wood: fire, plus, seeds, or sequences speaking Japanese, so deep in manure: so innovative, racing with Jerry, while lashing at Tom: this land made cartoon, those elastic, plastic realities, while it felt goodness to lose senses: running for no reason, such thoughts by kingdoms, at something claiming a terrific race….

…so contagious, or allergenic, at such scruples, those that perish in attraction: our deepest agonies, our rippling responses, where something inside wishes contention: at rhythmic bodies, at deeper cadence, our tribal instincts flourishing: so captured, feeling so crooked, while we envision our symphonies: such internal silence, becoming external violence, while something appears in mirrors: those cypress eyes, those achy limbs, or thighs searching to catch mercy: something with passion, or so much fire, while slowly becoming unglued: this new self, those new insecurities, our faucets pouring into our membranes: those kettle-born whistles, this metaphoric tea, something alike to more pressure: so many rubies, so attuned to losing, where measures force many to retreat: to utter softer whispers, to announce such incredible love, where raging adults have lost a smidgen of capacities: those aloof tendencies, this watchful, seemingly carefree analogy, working into our ribbed cages: this seeping reality, this weather in Belize, or so many seasons analyzing Europe: as younger souls, committed to older vibes, such timidity, or such captive freedoms….

…at romantic truths, so spaced in chimes, listening for those clangors: so backstage, so chasing freedom, while mother suggested a monster: so good to me, so bad to me, my worst war, my interior fatality: so perfect with meals, so aloof to criticisms, where whites discuss, ideally, every emotion: this tender seed, this tender daughter, this insecure father: it’s not tonight, but soon those roses, while Love smiled, even ached, and claimed superior wisdom: to worship phantoms, to indulge in various energies, so blinded by something awesome: this mental psych, this lover of life, so accustomed to seizing those moments: or carefree panic, or longevity tulips, while a bit to something destroying essence: our morals, this thing as good, this thing as horrible, while we slip for sliding longing into purity: our daughters this life, our mothers carrying families, but so enjoyed as giving meaning: or career orientations, wrestling in friction, if but voice to those offices: so destined to survive, so destined to win, provided such beauty, if but to cast a hook into neighboring souls….
                       
                        Indeed, a swan was born, a father was addicted, a
                        mother was eager, or even desperate to tug a cigar: such
                        deep
                        confliction, such radiant auras, where something probed her guts: such fury and heartache, if but to break freedom: where hell was familiar, needing perfection, if but to erase this image of dying addicts: so cursed with time,
                        so restored in memories, to reminisce upon grandparents: such radiant concern, or radiant eyes, so captive, so sweet!

The Great Mystery

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