While Dying An Amaryllis Budded


violent sounds by jubilant pain or Rumi’s piano.

so much mystic desert searching by oases so rummaged or unfree. it wasn’t freedom as coming to love while reality was pure illusion: coffee stains, tea rings, while wrung by uncertainty.

it was easy to ignore you until it was rain to notice you in so much to live our obituary: a mother by psoriasis or a cold breeze for a father where a son analyzed by imbalance. so much disobedience as crime seems existence where color seems penalty: a person unclear a woman devastated at diaries screaming out softly.

daughters are wrestling dearly. those subtle signs in discussion. or pure misogyny.

so harsh a word even an epithet while a white woman hates a colored man. it seems so natural, but it defies logic, for said white woman has a black child.

how to dissolve something insoluble?

by dangerous undercurrent but never a volt just dislike upon visual contact. but a meaning in suffering. or torture to cross paths. while so tender so deadly such affection!

flowers seem abandoned or solitary or gregarious. we can’t determine, while soil fraternizes, insomuch as to meet a divine mist. such observation. so distressed by facts. or sorely at an impasse. where it behooves us, if but to walk away, with arrangements to meet at high noon. so cursed in blessings, where it was life in suffering, insomuch as pain was existential—those fragments as they become puzzles to gaze at a child with pure hope.

oh dear beloved. if to give a caveat, it would be to retain something innocent. (too many riddles in us, such surreal galaxies, while humans are Delphic.) it was hating, then pain, then acceptance; so long into courage, while denial was winning, where a man relies on one more chance. such cries or behavior while a person seemed angelic: such saintly projection, such fragile ambition, while pure rejection must sprout understanding: those sage lakes, those passionate woodblocks, or by immortal destiny.

such spirit exhaustion by falling clouds while we held up a banner. it wouldn’t be gamboling nor jubilee nor paintings of bright or majestic faces. it would become horror by haunted gut where many merely change hats; but some are intimate, so relaxed in hell, with a furious goal; if but to unveil sorrow or to love by fervor where most zeal is impermanent. (some sharp magnet instills a man. he refocuses by debating probability. while resilient he becomes open but resistant.)             

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...
