Coming Across You Seems Cruel

 

by mud to need rinsing by penalty to know wrongness so wrong to think of you – a miracle madness so meshed in panic so close it ruins accountability. a heaving heart much warmth in its chamber so cursed to have loved you – a wild wicked niceness, I can’t remember us, seated in a shoe box. re-affected as years pass so great the sap of intimacy – a running magician a rugged edge at the fringe of addiction. winds swooshing waves swashing bodies in collision: buried in you laughing with you like a fool demanding of you. upon a common pigeon feeding at a park a Labrador approached. the wife watched, the dog was nosy, she called, he didn’t respond. she walked over, it wasn’t time, I was polite. the want for carnivals the feeling of clowns that ache we feel inside. a circular catastrophe a problem in calculation while death isn’t the issue, rather resurrection. still waiting while enjoying if but pure consumption.
