Bowls of Humanity


I delivered rice. Infused by sanity. Or confused by integrity. This moon by gray vines. This sky chandelier. Or this three-piece dialogue. Intrigued or bored—this cyan blueprint—or something beige. Desert brown eyes. An interest in Chronicles. Even a glasshouse Impala.

…so spacial a glare…. Such good penchants. Prepared to use us. Those fairer trades. Those fanatic winds. While branches and genetics warned of familiarity. Ebony flesh. Coquettish but testy. Where overt language listens for his eyes. Our mangled heritage. Our dying dynasty. While warn for decades. A remarkable slingshot. A jukebox and marijuana. Or something more but fire.

Those inheritance fibers. Trained to feel like ransom. But a totem for sin. Those blue violet eyes. Those enchants. Those hymnic seducers. Teasing song-fires. Reapplying balms. While meows echo softly. Ontic flame. Sagic rites. Omic fevers. Our sagas vary. Our pains are plural. But in reality, we sing differently. I go bass. I hear sorrow in cymbals. While appearances are planned. Those mahogany lamps. Those catbirds mimic. At something Amore disclaims.

I have us here, as a forethought, but treasury is reluctant. Our beauty so delicate. Our secrets so universal. While a man must feel intonation. A mayfly for Hanh. Roseries for a Bishop. And concupiscence for animals. Our minds ghostly. Our interior leaping into mirrors. Our sourness taking our helms. While dying to adore you, I pledge to sustain you, whether or not our ship returns to sea. This citrus orange. This bottle of childhood. Or this flippant irony. To sentence a gnat, while becoming a gadfly, where grandfather is hard at discernment.

Troubadour seduction. Timeless compunction. And Maybelline virtue. Armani imprints. Those sensuous chains. Plus, a sultry professional ensemble. Such abandon. Such wretched return. And such reckless public assassination. But what for questions. This absent father. Well, Girl, in all honesty, he’s crazy. It gets easier. It becomes normal language. While mother’s closet is full. Our unraveled laundry, by no greater contempt, but it’s alright for others. Those bags that couch those unclean satchel pouches. That deep scar that travesty and such for ventilation. If but our ways. This intense gravity. Where you look fantastic as mire rekindles mud.

I wonder, for I know, therefore, I suggest—this screaming anxiety; but what for thought, if I needed your soul; what if I fawned and died and curled into a knot—pleading for us, redeeming us, and speaking so poetically I’d become an emotive slave? This pleasurable plausible pain. This as chancing its beingness. This dejected feeling. This eighth tier. Our insistence pushing tribes underfoot. Or this raging tambourine. Too sought for that. So allergic to that. While we run a mix of raspberries with plums—for something must forfeit its determination. As radical creatures, living outrageous lies, while some are quite comfy with that. I wonder—if I’d never uttered, those unspeakable truths, would you have permitted me to live a lie?

It gets richer. Looking at a human person. Asking if this soul would kill me. That subtle, years in, irrepressible death. Those that shiver. Those that pop up. Those that prevent future intimacies. Where a person frets contact. Where a person needs contact. While such becomes nauseating. Indeed. “Get a therapist. Grow a pair. And get over it.” Such kindness. Such genuine humanity.
