Water Boils but the Substance is Cold


I celebrate obscurity or desensitize judgement while needing this faculty to survive; as mis-held infants or smothered by insanity at once a miracle somewhat normal; for behavior misinforms a soul mimicking dysfunction or warring against innate moral currents; this genetic warfare this calm examination where most are unequipped; our psycho-ceilings our dear remarks or such self-loathing; at self-aggrandizement so playful and lighthearted where one wishes kindness; but offices and dormitories and asylums conjure up pure roughness and indifference; while needing something personal or requiring something caring with little regard for ordnances; as so evolved no one sees or so perfect no one cares or so balanced our world is exhausting; but over there in that tiny space we see something we can’t keep: a city lemur or a small cub or an aging cheetah; such as living in silence while enduring maniac behaviors where some person is destroying those natural instincts; this vicious creature this misinformed creature attempting at best to raise a child. We ruin with time welded to behaviors re-sensed when introduced to normality; our own versions our own designs while transformed and breaking out in hives; such deep sickness, too far to return, where we attempt to acclimate such creatures; those reusable pots those faithful insecurities or this address to immediate gratification; so sung and unheard for passion desires immediacies and love is founded, rebuilt, and structured in a few hours; as running this risk as terrified about repercussions where one has a child to inform; our nights by sky-fire our souls by re-baptisms or so afloat a second it seems its deaths; at pure acrobatics or sunk too low to whistle or balanced for thoughts are under surveillance; those lioness queens those full figured harmonicas or such pianos unsung but rhythmic; our palatial cries our opalescent charms so ingratiated it’s impossible to sense us.

I never quite met you or I saw my mind’s needs where such confession is appalling; for we had a child we dined and placated and acted with such restriction; at no fairer cry at pure insecurity and we managed a couple of our demons; where deception liberates and false grounds seem but depictions and love was something difficult to fully manifest; our living designs where it’s natural to commune but unnatural, or uncomfortable, to thoroughly communicate; for ghosts were hiding high and phantoms were gambling and gambits were universal monopoly; this deep feeling, at somewhat the disregard, while peaking and peeking and feeling something terrific—as a little nervous as to wonder about this legacy while somewhat alert to something screaming. I’ll leave this at basics this thing becoming normal as going into affairs waiting for our exits!

It becomes self-imposing these deep uncertainties where a poet deliberately contradicts himself; at gates and rakes or chimneys and cages so involved in relating to this animate mirror; those cartoon expectations or so tried and weakened where nothing I give is ever satisfying; those whiffs but despair or so accommodated where a man dies and dies more to please every insecurity; this reversal in time this pleasure satiated this old self reaching and tugging and chasing its dysfunction; or well balanced passion and well adjusted responses where life is educated witness; to adore frequencies to possess circular harmony where life is work, family and growth: those days looking inward and sensing their faces while performing by blues.

We exist precious one reaping a little of the harvest while held accountable for leaving a bit for others. Our souls watching our gravitation towards our reflection our minds debating our deeper understanding. At remote reasons examined by conscience to sense something screaming!
