Glass Harmonica


…lightfast existence, a radiant heart, so mythic, so relatable: a sofa mind, a shrubbery wheel, or too much creativity: so religious those days, at something resistant, or something ineffable: pulled for drastic, so concerned, so easily at blueprints: a slight war, at inner negotiation, pleading for acceptance: such rooted denial, unable by clarity, presuming something forgiving: this kleptic hell, to have lost existence, where hands were filthy: so hard to distinguish, by various winds, so struck with silence: to receive more, ever than one gives, where disaster promised its kiss: rebuilt but dragging, in this pond of venom, and holding our breaths: such quicksand islands, such sound and song, at something too estranged to redeem: a marbled yoke, a breaking mask, while one hates for one sees: this ousted clown, this heinous cartoon, at black silence: at mass or minister, at wine or blood, at wafer or body: feeling cursed, removed from lights, while life is dominate: dripping nerves, pulsating veins, or hypertension: this crazy island, this outrageous paint, while something has claimed peace: that dirty trail, those shattered bones, those flesh wounds: indeed, we part ways, replay our cards, while seducing harmony: those gliding swans, this internal renaissance, at glory, pain, and redemption….

...saffron rain, orange skies, and burgundy horizons: to placate irony, to feel ashamed, while, nonetheless, others are chancing Infinity: terrible cries, those particular photographers, where, in spite of performance, one keeps those first pictures….

…so much ambition, a bit tired, while forced to wade water: our bathing spirits, our former selves, while tracked and treaded into memorizations: our souls with caves, as Spartan warriors, so accursed for sinning, so accursed for winning: so shredded, so sparkled, reknitting twigs: those mental photos, those ceiling reminders, while years turn into music: either softer sounds, or blaring shards, so deceased trekking horizons: remodeling caskets, redeemed in parts, so forced and challenged by angst: at mind-yards, or head-flames, so nestled, so cuddly, but purely vicious: those sick plans, to ruin something clean, while angered for unforgiveness: in tender time, in tender waves, a man becomes a memory: etched into skies, painted into churches, and immortalized as forgotten: such semblance, at purer reigns, knitted at sun-storms: limelight beauty, or mystic rain, so blessed through curses: at pains forever, while finding joys, so attached to something fading: our choice to dance, our cabinets with victuals, our hearts with terror….

…by campfire pledges, or inner city oaths, something must give: to imagine brains, dangling by wires, a bit serene in deaths: looking at life, performed and languishing, at such a perfect party: comparing lives, a bit by envy, while others are circumspect: such a war, while envied likewise, debating something fabricated: our stardust screams, those ravishing downpours, so undone, so unsung: another person’s wings, as hitchhiking bandits, such a gumdrop passion: at workable feelings, or unworkable existence, while forced to persevere: children watching, glue sticking, and fleeing if possible….

…bodies speak clearly, while eyes are hidden, into something it felt heaven: needing a brain-cage, refocused and screaming, where madness runs a corner afar: so demonized, so returned, while senders are curious: so gothic at times, so abstract at times, or so confused by behavior: postmodern men, at medieval castles, related as something uncouth: if Love must perish, we die as colors, we resurrect as lightning: our jetpacks, our terrible illusions, while something fictional became an obsession: our split-screens, those simultaneous feelings, while we hate in order to love: our chosen masters, our lively carnivals, so upbeat, so downtrodden, at something alive a miracle: scribbled upon paper, drinking ink, fueled and flamed and favored: but days took so long, pains became indelible, plus, years were lost: a terrible toothache, a sweetened reality, while hell trespasses: our longer walks, our bifocal glasses, at pages speaking metaphors: so sought, so remembered, while something has become insufferable….     
  

I’d Save The Reader Years

    The beat becomes sickness. A long crucible—a drilling ecstasy. I was losing focus, feeling forbidden, if to self, if to mirrors. So curs...
