Emergent simplicity

(YOU)

••

All the Raw Power !

Come

•

YOU

Reveal the magic of the gift

That you are

••

Today !

****** mess !

YOU !

••

COME

--

Wait till Tomorrow
And we'll
All be dead

(This you know!)

I KNOW YOU KNOW !

••

Little lovey - dovey exchanges
Won't keep you alive
When the **** hits the fan

•••

do you really love?

only actions will tell

---

The supreme moment

You and the emergent infant of immortality

born

Out of the pure flesh that is your own

••

The eternal song

••

Ah yes

You must know the words fore
You can sing

standing together on the high hill

the naked vision

the wild thoughts of actually
becoming human and

staying that way

the naked possibility

of naked truth as real

the utterly naked boldness

of truly naked pure love

that overwhelms

as it solidifies the world!

they will come to **** us
we know

for we are

lovers

naked on the high hill

naked lovers
in
naked love

openly

yes they come for you

oh we DO know

not your already economically enslaved body

but your mind
your spirit
your soul

(yes we DO know)

-------------

but we dont care

we have given up these "mystic" elements already

we are not the weirdos, the hippies

we are the GOOD

we suffer properly

read our  "safe and sterile" poetry

and you will know us
as we are

shadow dwellers
fearful at heart

loving any scrap of love
comes our way

even from vampires,  "stars" and thieves

--------

the walking dead

yes!

they come for you

just to poke you and **** you

for a laugh or two

Now that the battery of my ***** is finally charged

For sale

We portray whatever it takes --

Go on alone
Be weak

We are too fragile to care

Hurt joy love hate

Merge together as a long afternoon merges faces and lives into a mess

Of
Undifferentiated  misunderstanding
--

But it's a game we win at the end we say

For we make up all rules

And we claim the mastery over Fate

-- so it goes and is

Betray  with a kiss

A fake smile

And a ton of hubris

And cold heartedness

ANYONE
we walk late nights
WE FACE OBLIVION
joyously

this is the last time
this is the only
"lovely"

we long for total loneliness

.... you just go where they tell you to go

and then write a poem about it

and ( instead of acknowledging your own

Cowardice )

... you just say that you were deceived

                        And are now painfully                broken

And wait for some other coward

To offer ( for the both of you !! )

Insincere sympathy

Oh  !

For shame !
For shame !

violent  is this................
........................lack
of gentlessness

as........
..............settling over
this sense of fatigue
and spiritlessness
when the community is gone!

and it is gone

i try to ask:

"what have you done to yourself?
what have you done with your mind?
why so shallow, the heart?
why this ugliness?
why this fear of death?
why don't you breathe?
where is your breath!?"

but it is all so wrong!

gentle................
.................the loneliness

mere solitude seems
a release

from the weight of your quitting
the fight

with love that
prostitutes the night

and the angry frightened children
now everyone

sing one song sure
sing one pain song
sing one heal me now

sing one loud and clear
sing one i am
sing one come on now
sing one heal me now
right now

today is the songday sing
sing one song
pain song loud
sing one song
sing one free

and soon?
what....?

WHAT!!??!!??

about you!

RIGHT!?!?

"i love you"

WHAT EXACTLY DO YOU MEAN?"

"i love you"

WHAT EXACTLY DID HE MEAN?
DID YOU ASK HIM?

UNLOVED

The image of the last lynched *****

Forever in the mind

One the way to work

Cars and beat up subways

Blacks Hispanics  Whites

Hearing of the deaths on the radio

Amid the throbbing genitalia

Of the enslaved population

               Wondering why it's not         Working out !

All the children sense Doom ahead

I gird my *****

Stand by me

tell me now true words
show me now true form

be the poet write your life

in blood

tell me soft love bodies
ride the endless wave

can the silly maudlin
sentimentalities

we are dyin
dyin

on these ****** streets

tell me now true bodies
show me now images of

the poet who writes with love

write

your life in blood  

on these ****** streets

before we die

on these ****** streets

you love

(we know)

you love

(perhaps....me
who can say?)

stand up!

speak!

everybody wants
to understand

what  you mean

what is your "debt?"

who are your
"thought masters?"

who do you trust?

something about it

only something

about

IT

that's what i seek

The angels came

Read

We wander down uncharted roads

Not really roads just imaginary

Fantacies in which we find something

We may call LOVE

Doomed

Stars

Revealing reality of deep feelings

Dressed in simple  rags she walks pure hills and kisses

Wind and sun

And sees you everywhere

Everyone

We are frozen without courage

Only dying

Stars

Angels tell of the way thru the prison to the hills

We ***** we paw for gold

We pan for feelings by mutilating each other's  bodies

Stars

Point to the map reveals our Heart

We live heartlessly

Groping and pawing

Destroying

Bodies

Strength

What you had until you succumbed

To the lies you told

Rags of pure

Childhood poverty

Painting pictures of insanity

To heal

You of

all demented dreams

If  I could be alive again!

NEW YORK CITY ANGEL!

(And the world)

Yes!

A pure dream lived!

Dressed in rags

The dreamy child sleeps

In the mystic alleyways

Soon to be the bag lady

Soon to be just like we are

Rags of pure

Childhood poverty

Oh the shame

Of what is truly here

........&
all wisdom is gone

                                          ... and the very meaning of what you do or  say

saying nothing of importance.

Never revealing

True Human-ness

In the manner of a rag doll clown

In ******* convulsions

Till we are thrown down

Shame

To be a human

But to live like a slave

Love is simple

Truth is easy

Don't let your love be altered

Don't let them steal your grace

hypnotically

the

shattered men
walk Broken Streets

dreamlessly and hopelessly

Killing and Dying

needlessly

walkin down the street
an ole wino hangin on

to the bus stop sign
to keep from fallin down

"what a sight!"
i mutter to myself

then
"judge not that ye be not judged"
comes from somewheres else

so i ...up to him
"you o.k. .........bro?"

"no!...no...!!
i left my heart pills at home!
i got to get home!
just got out from surgery
only yesterday!"


"well now" says i to myself
i am a fool, such a fool"

but.......no cab in sight
and i in such paniced fear

we sit down on a bench
i take hold of his hand
like GROSS ELECTRICITY
his death comes shooting
right thru me

he and i are one
only one fate

i try to meditate
can hardly even breath

he and i are one
dying body complete

but then the feelings calm
the breathing starts to ease

i look into his eyes
he smiles back at me

"i.m ok now " he says
"a cab'll take me home"

"maybe" says i
"you shouldnt go alone"

he says
"i'm fine.....and by the by
thank you for my life"

finally.........i say

"DID THAT HAPPEN WHAT I THINK HAPPENED?"

"yep," he says

a cab comes....he waves and is gone

i turn and go wandering
down the street

From reading the poems here

One might think that young people LIKE

to be used and abused (!)

::

They certainly write enough about it

And always seem reluctant to part with the abuser (!)

//

In fact

The famiarity of the abuse

Seems to offer a form of physcic  shelter

//

Now

This is a far cry from suggesting that they SEEK abuse

But it does suggest ( in conjunction with

The heavy instances of DEPRESSION here )

/:

That LONLINESS is thought of as worse than

A horrid relationship

/:/

This is something that the

COLLECTIVE POETIC MIND

Might find some true inspiration in exploring

And might serve as an avenue of healing

Soft!
( it's a dyin sound

A
Subtle lonely sigh

It shatters the night!

HERE WE ARE!

-----where are we?-----
.
Will anybody answer now?)
-_-

CONTEMPLATING!
What?
WHAT ARE WE-----contemplating

With all our Might?
----
CONTEMPLATING
within the soft sigh of
The dying as it Sounds
----
--
Will anybody answer now?
------
All images
The symbols of olden stories
Simply expressed
So that the truth of the day
Might be seen
Known
And dealt with
--
These are useless now
.
We are left to our own devices

We must speak clearly

WE MUST ANSWER ALL QUESTIONS
WITH TOTAL HONESTY
AND COURAGE

We must enter the story.!

We must stand true to what we are CONTEMPLATING!
..
There can be no disconnections
No obscuration
No hiding
No lying
.

We are to be

ONE WITH THE DYING
--
It is
Our sighs sounding

--

The QUESTION LONG LINGERS

we must answer now
----
--

Wake up kids!

You are not an EXTRA
In some phoney tv advertisement

A product!
A mere HUMAN *****
Seeking love
In a sterile high school environment
Attempting
To end the boredom of your parent's
Mastorbatory existence
Within their enslavement
To capitalism and its dehumanizing games!
--
You are put here------FREE!
.
To think for yourself
To LOVE as yourself
.
To hear and to heed

The dying!

The soft sighs
Of lovers

The subtle new images
Formed out of the remnants

Of all the criminally unnecessary suffering
---

Soft!

The dying sounds
Yields to

REBIRTH'S SONG

Sung aloud

By the FREE SOULS
the DARING
LOVELY
COURAGEOUS
CHILDREN
(Such as yourselves)
---
Racing thru the corridors
Out to the streets
Leading to whatever it is

YOU ARE CONTEMPLATING

do not be afraid to say it now

THE WORLD IS YOURS

do not be afraid to say so,
Now

Truth

What you need to know
To get things done

Thru the childhood days

Past the **** heads dying in the park
Thru to the cutters and the depressed kids

Who write of lovelessness
Here on hello poetry

///

On the brink of World War III
Wounded to the very heart

Telling of the pain of Loneliness
(   Such deep and penetrating loneliness. )

••

The tenemented poverty
The isolation


The continuous onslaught
The reverberations

The utter lack of hope
The utter abandonment of faith

The frighten refusal to see
The universality of the dissolution

The pandering to collectivity
The "me-too" egoism

That says
Sadness is enough
misery is qualification enough

ALL OUR FOOTSPEPS)

as the ANTIC Breezes cease

and nothing is left
