Raven’s Creek

 

I drag concrete those deadening cries so blood blue—to resurrect to kill Jesus while knee deep in mud. by dear execution a neck to guillotine a headless body running; to collapse in Jerusalem to rise in Judah so many petting a lion’s head. such benthos, such radiant ethos, as a man so late in his recovery. soaking in blues such impetus for depression while Love spoke sweet miracles; such failure early on such redemption midlife while trekking faster these days. an unwet baptism such disgust to die while looking at Kerry. our comic devastation our Cooper Nation where souls are asking for fire. the bone of the psych the terror of its duty the mind running like penance. so neural as if in truth to tell a man he’s messed up. so arbitrary so dependent as relying more upon feelings. our younger expeditions at a hundred & three, raiding through Projects; to Cruisers blazing Oldies with hell to pay. the man with fury is a man losing where a sage pat his shoulder. so lucky, Jesus, so determined, Christ, while many haven’t decoded its riddle.

it’s airborne such an entity as decimating society. so ironclad so much a wrinkle while adoring her became normal. too close these days, a soul might stay committed, while torn between sockets. maize eyes or maze lunatics if but to cherish one absent of cherishing herself. the tender we give, the tender we come, while some haven’t gone too deeply. it meant its moment it lived its legacy where minds rush to Raven’s Creek.
