Every name to stand

Picking up broken dishes like exploded piano sheet songs on the floor or
My kids and the dwelling sun have got about as much as anything else has worth.

This is all in one  fell swoop in
A few billion years the earth is gone.
ZOO Nov 2024
In neural sparks and ancient bone,
Love and hope were carved, not grown.
Evolution shaped their guise,
A social need, a brain’s disguise.

Yet in their fire, we find our creed,
A shared delusion we still feed.
Though chemistry explains the flame,
Its warmth transcends the fleeting name.

For truth resides not just in fact,
But in the ways our hearts react.
If love's a lie, it still feels real,
And hope compels the will to heal.

In subject’s gaze, the universal’s clear,
A fragile truth, yet no less dear.

Exit Attendants have been replaced by this kiosk

NO attendant no fuss

Gramps what's wrong with him?
He's sick, stay away from him.
Guilty as charged strapped in the electric chair, my mask is just : trainer breathing performance breather trainer,
It makes the Darth Vader voice,
not a golden suggestion for the too young to appreciate,
And by the powers that dictate.
Hope you sleep with the sandman well,

The city sits small in a forest
noise canceling by leaves.

whose that someone there on the corner
influencing me with her sign
does she expect me to leave her money.

sign says to me, love and remember
take care of my sweet things , for me,
I'm  on my way home.
I'm here, see me
my hurt and every hope.

She planted the sign inside me
as I drove by
The thought of her there still
and I was can'ting and I'm still
thinking I can't.
Hoping, instead, that the heaven rises open for her.

all her quotes were soon delivered by the passer byes
the ambulance driver had already gone, too.
All had left, but was me, laying down beside her
No God to be watching over -
We are now
the only ones watching
her story is sorta sad, tragic and funny.

the noon time sun pierced her there on the ground
Beside snow covered wheels were white and soundless
like photos that were a patch of dark blood was still mixing.

I over think on my worries, now, and know little else, because
She is friendless sitting still there in my memory;
Simply, I am to be no longer existing - the heavens, who do not care.
I do not guard my worried me, just kneel, I am liable
not have never read on his word, in my bible.

I am someone lesser, man now, for not believing
a wandering begging and I am blinding to pull off
all that I've gathered by my skin - inside this foxskin cloth,

that ******* the corner, so long she waited to get money from here to
travel to Baltimore, she had in her pocket her sister, Gabriela's calligraphy, her darned socks.

I think I will take a long Northern train to see tonight,
And pray with imagined gifts, quitting myself
and she hushed me. "I am a seed eternally."

she had beautiful eyelids and my nose knows
those pulsing streams are pillows that still gather
up on the down dust smatters from rain,
still the eyes are Writing
old pipers notes long ago accordion tunes.

...
touched and more, the world
revolver, humbly ease, the pain
the very things I want and needed.
and if I had been everything,
you'd say never, with such ruddy bliss, dropped from your face
the purse of lips, or a cleaver or mace
to die on stage, is everything one can be.
to die on stage, is everything one can be

The black hole I gave up to it
  my growl to have
separated myself to belong to
  your ability to ignore
of a little light of mine I let in
  the denial for grasping

Morning love
Coconuts thud
palms imprint
Are you down
Tapps measuring
Tsch tsch tsch
Rubbing often
I tied the creaky hair tie
Fished our feet
And mad courtship
to fiddlercrabs.
oh rubylips
and forgot to turn to you
im yakin my time
to everafter.

friendly, I take these lights  
strong tinsel strength grew in places behind her
    *can you pull me in?
  
(like I wished)
and, I, asleep walked around undressed
the black was wet and golden
the sky streamed behind her
and that !darkshine Her's!
was all that I lepted out after.

The watch ran backwards  then melted like a black hole sun with us smilling
errie is another and another in time; (time again  was old as old **** own **** who accepts it just as it is
It says illness

If the sun also rises I don't remember
I'll keep crying this day never ends
In My Beginners group recital
My brains a hotel model
Comfortable  and lean with queen bed sheets wrapped around me

Parked behind, a puckered kiss
thy nose holds
chunky rimmed glasses
awed caused strobe effect
a lure hand stroke, made cold fashion
cries as a hare,
sounds like a murderous child
   lures, almost men, to eat.


Creek smiles between boards
odd dimples dare back, chin up
oil barefoot bridge.

Too sick to work...
    I'd rather stay at home to
ILL it with parents
    But i lead them on until I'm asked
then I can quit and leave because
None knew I had an issue
With Daddy . . .

and I can't separate it out why I'm being looked at supposedly
As Attractive

To who I might be interested in
if it is
being taken advantage of,  
or is it not

my work is satisfactory
fear for my generalization or from you -In you all only want what every
******* Friday wants
they're all after the same thing
shining like a diamond

Under the big top *** Wee and friends
went backstage of the circus
For they Who dared; needed an adventure
embarked on secret mission
to the room where caged
held their curiosities only
young boys immersed in giggling
disappointed until arriving
at the said spot which they beheld
along a long dark corridor they came to a  door hung where a sign they read

[Good Girl, the Pink Elephant,
Curious?
A Sight to See! Exhibition of the Freak
Now inside]  
                  ,,, It was also
  [CLOSED] (No admittance, under renovation!.)
               ,, they enter

Creeping along in the dark they came to a  point to stop and feel around for a light on end of a string,
                       ,,,(Clicked on)
laying in middle of room, a large flat tabletop, holding a thick entity of an unknown nature.
pieces of flesh clods,
cool-to-the -touch-
mounds of a non-moving members, slippery and wet, quiet

             ,,,hushed whisper, told his pushing companions
    
    "Stop hitting on me!"

until only he could hear himself say
In the small known way
at which he laughed at his own macabe sense of inward humor
  
   "Dot. Dot. Dee. Dee... thats what she said. Heh heh"
consoled himself with such inward
              humming  as he touched the delicate skin of the mounds contours

"Three blind mice, Three blind mice
       see how they run, see how they run"

         ..,shouting he said  

"IS THIS THE TRUNK, OR THE TAIL?!"
I feel something kinda warm coming out
Wut dat, WUT DIS, Who dhere?"

Out of the room they left
in single file, differening recollections.

For *** Wee
His laugh
his own an inward openness
to being gone or extinct, said

     "whatever happens in my life was to
       little"

To this idea We talked about It
Of *** Wee and companions
curious reflections
The One failing suicide access.

unpredictability of human behaviour especially in who's last breath is for:

     here is not a map or compass
     all seemingly lost becomes satisfying
When I am to predict

Who or what in The moment I'm to change into revolt and turn into live and stare.

Happy, as our dreams inspired, never to grow older

moving apart, never to see, as being ‘any purer’,  
Your dolls ruby blue eyes
Traveled down in the oceans grenadine;

Below thy reels lifting
    as we pulled them legs off
between them knees new green
fell from a heart, the silvery spoon.
