Magic it flows
Chaos that shows

Shake it goes

make it
form it
called it

in the cold
in the Native
black of night

A Son journeys
down with a Magi
sleeping in snatches
stealing lunch breaks

Down a Mountain
with Hope's boulder
at His back

And a Rapper's Delight
endlessly looping
in His ear

"broken glass everywhere"

At the end, liked
I said at minute 9

It's a figa feast
A Zatoichi fantasy

"Ha haha"
"Whyyyy?"

Because this was all folly

Lot of references

Sometimes...

Sometimes we need pop
From a queen cuz the Michael is dead

Sometimes we need teenage fantasy
From a gold heart cuz Girls are player too

Sometimes we need mules
To mine for Cryptic ore cuz currency comes

With our morning breakfast!

Meet me on the Moon Paulette

Forever

For every birth, a passing
For ever passing time
A birthday

Compressing my heart
Compressing indigo
interlaced with green
Happiness

We all have our Grand
Mothers - bookends gone
because our stories r neverending

Yesterday I danced
under the first quarter Moon
20241010

Monday, I'll be a pallbearer
again bearing witness
2 Jedi grace in parting
20241014

And in the mourning
In the early day light of night
I won't forget
20241015

Bye Thursdays, I'll be with she
A moment glowing in the dark
under a Hunter's Moon

Middle class hood

Zone of Transition
Cortical interneurons before
Their tangential invasion

Or gabaergic Purkinje
Amassing Armada before
Their radial Normandy

I was never officer
Material
Maybe I'm a gentle
Man

A Lone wolf without a cub
A Vagabond fantasy

A black and white Zatoichi
Transmogrified 2
A colorful toxic Hanzo
2 masculinity

Ah.

There's the rub

A middle path
Neither right nor left
But definitely dexterous and sinister

A Babel tower er^ct
In our lingual babbel

Or a gradient descent
With our Fel*rian Queen

Whatever.

A censored Blackhawk down
Or Phoenix propaganda rising

We don't really matter
In our Bird Clan cl^m@x

It's a Duran Duran weekend I think

A time when the Fellowship was unbroken
And our Witches were in their Zenith!

And us?

Are we on another quest?
Magic users, frail and delicate?
Dreams and dreamers

Ageless nights with a Faer Queen
A lady of the first Twilight
Moon beams and fantasy

It's quiet

The first quiet before a storm
The second quiet is the storm
The eye of a Hurricane
The eye of the Rubin

"Hey Mr. Carter, Mr. Carter
Tell me, where have you been?"

Welcome back Mr. Kotter!

Paul's Lette r

I'm here at Kaiser again

Her hands are bruised
Her arms too where the IV needles are

The Last Rites this morning
and intubation last night

She, in her strength
and us, in our technology
give time

Time for long goodbyes
Amore ciao

A million years of socializing
make it hard to let go

The Tigers come?
It was quicker
No remnants

Leave her on the Trail?
Wolves come
Vultures clean

We were a different culture then
We are a new solution now

Osmolality and salt
drips to keep the pulse

No pressure drop
No karmic revenge

There's time enough to say bye
In time, we'll meet again
in time
in green dreams

They've started the morphine
They've stopped management

She's passed.

Her heart stopped
Ours fluttered

It is 10:55AM, Wednesday 2024

Writing this in her room. It's 9:14. When they stop the three drugs IV, her blood pressure will drop and she will pass

Horses

Have we read Harry Potter?

There are women who haven't and maybe never meet a therestral horse

She may not understand

But if she's alive and knows she'll die

She may sympathize

And if we are raised by Loving Hands
Cradled by arms warm
Comforted by Network wombs

We will empathize

Do we yet see the spectral horses
dancing in all their glory?

Or maybe it was a different novel
a different pub, a different tavern

A different Stalking Horse

A different Prancing Horse
named Ferrari
swift like a Black Stallion
magical as a White Unicorn
edgy comics from a Dark Horse

We say it's a Man's world but Witches carry the heavy load

The carriage carries only she and Eternity
while straggling psychopaths on foot pick up mementos

Longevity and psychopathy have their places
Autistic Souls linked within Maternal networks but disassociated

"Bring on the dancing horses"
"Jimmy Brown, made of stone
Charlie clown, no way home"

Headless moments squeeze our hearts none-the-less

I wrote this while walking home early to go to Kaiser. I added more on the drive to Irvine and finished most of it in her room.
