binding time
when firing hearth
sprinkling cologne smelling wine
but the time has by the time gone far.

twenty first of ember
fortnight late for goals to be.
twenty first mistake, however
goals are coals burning glee.

for no longer
you await me after work
claiming bees are busy homewards
knowing bees are sleeping not.

hazel would reveal
one to seven, nutshell-strong
while capitals are running short
while walnut's acting wrong.

walnut misses hazel.
why they hardly ever meet?
were nut shells intruded with a razor
or the hazel lost the seed

A kite
Snapped.
Cap on that head,
As if fury - is red.
When a kite
Snapped,
Cerulean dropped
From underneath the hat
Cerulean probably wet.

Be not
Every rope shallow be freed
By cutting the knot)

A pocketful of doom is flourishing
ceiling to wall in my cranium,

and though I tend to the tantrum of it
with fatherly, nurturing discipline

it acts as a nebulous cumulonimbus
fog seething with diffusion of void,
breaking through every window of warm

out to the inside I tend to become

an accidental abuser, flailing teeth
into over-ripened words, knocking
unripened fruit from the bough between us.

With nerves like coiled snakes in an apple,
prismatic minds are dulled to a fractal
of their former spectral rainbow
when expunged into the shadow.

Thorough rage—event horizon
clawing sides of deep depressions,
cusping manic at the fervor—

when the cliff becomes the shackle
of the neurosis-fed darkness jackal

open demise toward the mouth of the sun
and perhaps tongue at infinite light.
I feel the shutter of my curtains,
Stare into the Madness,
Where curiosity and dissidence
lay side by side.

My bed quivers in the early mornings
Light,
Pausing only to Juxtapose the desolation of
my
Sanity.

The floorboards beneath my very feet
Tremble as my consciousness
lay siege to the rational.
As if a sadist has purged the inner
mechanisms
of my Rage.

The stars stand still,
perhaps a welcoming message to my
overwhelming question.
Do we wander the world transfixed on doom,
or see that goodness and glory penetrates the
deepest of trenches?

The ceiling fan bumbles it's absurd existence
into my frontal lobe,
its tense relationship with the air,
Massacring it's way along the roots
of my
liberty.
Perplexing the cause for which I
have lost my thoughts to,
And cultivating the seeds
of
my
MADNESS.
