One thing I'll delight.

Poetry is challenge
Made constant.

unnerving unwordy
pilfering deposits
on surety.

there is forever an
unfound to unveil.

But only if/when
Fright is kept inside you
whilst writing or wiling
In every day.
Not fright meaning scares
Or terror mined despair.
In its stead adopt a fealty

To the unknown unknown!
To not knowing what
exactly or even a glancing
What unknown which
    We
        Just       
              Don't        
                     Know.

So Seek Servitude
in unsolvable.
Embrace imalleable
Modern mystery.

Absolved of any certainty
completes an unintended
Courtesy.  
Our lack
of knowledge
is the only solid
Peace of Knowledge
we can grasp.

To (not really) quote Biggie Smalls
you don't know what's unknown

It's a Mitzvah this thing
Our one our only blessing

Because truly this
is what compels
And Coerces
A need to create.

And at them
She can't get up.
***** *****
She won't get down.

Around this town
She gots no secrets
Not inease
Of her own.

Thin call parties hurt now
sewn nun invited
no shuns deal lichen

Hair and herself
Being all lone.

Head side treading
threads She splits
fine item eyed
crates to diskew
Full freight Fair
rebate sans wits

In dings she sings
Small of a sudden
Leaped wings to retch
doubt stunned her
Reach doubt to
fund her joy

none derive all
ease she Collars
treat all green eights
Whimbling out loud
Uncle Ere...

All gut the Inks
mussed come
to an in she thinks
Or else
tries Umph in gals.
My apologies for the varied versions of this thing...

And at him She
can't get up *****
***** She won't get
Down roundest town
She got snow seek ritz.
Not in ease et al.
Sipped at air
Owe win.

Thin call parties
Heard ur now
Sewn unwell been
In fight head.
Know shuns Felt
Ired real lies ten
Spied her
Sell fear yeah till
All ill own.

Thoughts big inner red
sighed dread kin days
pull its fair ingots
true an ask whoop
A Fool.
Errand freight sands
rebate witch whit

Wit sending she sings
A mall of us
Sudden leaps
wings to retch doubt
stun dare each tout
Ooh dues we
fund her joy

none drive all seas
Her Hollers treat tang
Urge greed sold eighths
Whim bling out
Loud Uncle Ear....

All good thin geese


must
calm.
   tune

Below the Chinese sunset
Beneath a Shanghai sky.
Deep inside Changbai mountains
My shiny top is mined.

My body's make
Man's latest take.
Becoming God
Still having to die.

My innards so
Transparent.
So combusting
On the sly.

A spring
A flint
Wheeled Thumb's
Imprint.

Fire
On the fly.

How do you improve
Our first machine?

Round it even more?
Bigger? Smaller?
Square?

Nay.
To transcend your wheeling
Self my Dear,

You must become
A gear.
Para Willene

Two elephants elope.
side by side.
Side by side.

They walk together
They talk together.
Always Side by side.

One owns true love.
The Other only loss.

And still they
Walk together they
Talk together.

Side by side.
Side by side.
Lightbulb Martin Dec 2013
Dos elefantes fugarse.
En paralelo.
En paralelo.

Caminan juntos
Hablan juntos.
Siempre lado a lado.

Uno es dueño de amor verdadero.
La única derrota.

Y todavía se
Caminar juntos ellos
Hablar juntos.

En paralelo.
En paralelo.
