I'm sifting out the undesirable through isles of plaqued teeth
and siphoning what I'd like to keep.
You've been reduced to your finest gristle, marrow, and meat.
You're best is wedged in the brackets between
and plucked out with the stem of an oak leaf.
short snippet of a longer, better poem available on my page!
Just as one drop of rain cannot be blamed for the shower
among the guilty masses he'll cower.
this is just a snippet of a larger, better poem available on my page!
We all will go;
down a narrow terminal which marries the
so many million pursuits diverging,
and the one common end.

Precise and glad;
that shy abrasion as I graze my resolution.
Approaching eagerly and just missed it.

I esteem my longing only in so far as I can get a hold of its matter, anyway.
So that i'm perpetually dispossessed and still elated.  

What's the matter with me mama?

Why is it only me who can hear the
bawling shriek of a finishing orchestra?

I am harboring a million desires
that I haven't the means to acquire
and so they dissipate.

But, excuse me,
I have got to concentrate

on the song I heard while dreaming
before I forget it.

The one million pursuits sing that;
I am being deprived of a thing I have a right to.

Oh, forget it.
open to interpretation.
Where do I put it all?
Something common to call on?

No, not at all.
Im forced to cultivate a virtue which has not yet been founded.

****** fastens around the gull constricting,
he's a sweltering scarf with an ill temper.

Barbarity and terror as an accessory to his will.
An accessory that is adorning me.

The scheme is choked at birth,
shame to have ever made it past audacity.

Passion is such a nasty endeavor
and should be swiftly finished;
not ever refined to be more than a temporary embarrassment.

In his grasp I trust.
If I would like to have a common thing to call on
then I must.

I'll spend some time mitigating my ineffective ambitions and exploiting the others.

All fervent works are washed away by this deflection,
and i've configured a will without good direction.

Now without a channel;
Ill be delivered from my suffering once Ive found the words to say how I have suffered.

He's lost his latest aspiration like
a heifer has lost her calf in a museum of oak.
Her eager hollering-calls in their undying remedy
are all heard by me and received readily.

More than one young humor is scrambling toward her wail
to be fully embraced.

Blind and wild, I chase her shrieks for a great distance,
quickly closing in on the difference.
Until, at a blooming green site, I meet with the other young humor.

From a clenched snarl,
my tired, heavy eyelids are unfastened harshly like a crusted shut drawer.
Saliva oils a rusted hinge and lets my stiff maw dangle, slack.
Critically emaciated,
and now face to face with the other young humor.

I'm sifting out the undesirable through isles of plaqued teeth
and siphoning what I'd like to keep.
You've been reduced to your finest gristle, marrow, and meat.
You're best is wedged in the brackets between
and plucked out with the stem of an oak leaf.

Now the merit she's nurtured
will contribute to my make.
Rather than finding my own virtue
I take, and I take.

I could thrive on the clear river and the plant decay
rather than stealing away a head from the forest thrice a day.
Knowing this to be true,
I still find myself in some deeply necessary allegiance with you.

And so I am basking in her holler as one would in the sun,
and doing so until her glory is done.

Done by me,
and done so readily.
open to interpretation!
Without the reassurance of a sweet by and by,
how should I bring a frail body forth in stoic motion
towards an end it will never attend?

Return me to my valley.

Faith is a valley
where rolling hills bend like still waves;
reaching for the heavens and quitting in intervals.

These are the mountain walls of dying,
reeling down to form a divot.

Sit me in it.

With nothing left of me to steep up from the cradle I shape,
I turn to this sea and I say, "unmake me".

These hillside submissions are all a sanctuary for the battered pride
that let us idealize strife, and silence the nature which revolts against our exertion.

With my reason bending to the will of you
i'm deprived of a thing i've had a right to.

Life is now not much more than something which approaches a second one.

My beloved only living ever.

Salivary slick coats the fist,
varnishing a flesh mitt.

Gnawing kicks up a flesh sheet,
which proclaims bare knuckle under the abrasion.

And as thin water cuts through slobber,
it is washing away the guilt and fodder.

The fist as a righteous conviction which disputes the gull;

does the guilt come up along with and in the fodder?

With a vice that is infinitely vindicating
I wash my hands of it.
Russell's sign is an indicator of bulimia. It refers to a patient who has visible abrasions on their knuckles from self induced vomiting. These are caused by recurrent friction between the fist and incisors (teeth).
Liberty's delight is blazing
a brilliance which she howls as a beam.
That harsh gleam is softened
by the deceptive blush of a tacky cathedral window.    

Tongue flicks, flickers, this tricks—
That gross dialect.
Awkward, and pretentious, and flamboyant vein,
its often open ended.  

As he speaks his tongue lashes
like a thick rug is whipped around, dusted out.
Tamed by his teeth to annunciate a strident vowel and seldom otherwise.  

It does filth the air.
******—
                       I don’t like it at all.                    

Fathers, sons, and brothers—
who are hacking up phlegm;
barking back at mothers
that hack up phlegm back.
The derived from who turn and detest it
with the maternal disgrace.

A man strays from all virtue once he has turned away from his derivative.

Lesser men saying, “yes, let’s”—
They follow and they wallow in adoration.

Why does he abide by his assignment?
Many seem proficient enough to assign it.
They give him his strident vowels.

Why does he wish for a creed?
To be pleased in his pursuit of a satisfactory compatriot.
A peer is a prole is a liability.
Himself, and his Lord, and he.

A few men posses an increasingly uncommon quality;
they've got a light on in their heads.
He flinches, he's cowering.

He pulls his tired arm up into a salute;
shades a squinting gaze from the bright.

An instinctive gesture is heretical still.


( . . . )

My attention is brought back to God
and for the first time I see his face;
contorted, as one would be in the presence of disgrace.

The superior, holy light of his demeanor suggest
he knows all transgressions, disregarding confess.

He turns the other cheek.

And though he’s averted his furrowed gaze,
the weight of his judgment stays.

Kingdom, come! And will be done, I do believe—
I still see the face of god, and he, I.
But, I cannot reach it.

This is not so nice as my lavish sacristy.
open to interpretation.
Scarfing down a ceiling of clouds in great big portions.
He's feeling very full for it.

A breaching blue cavity
defiles the white and delightsome sky.
Heavens gate is beyond this
miserable indigo hiatus.

Fuller for it like the creek after rain,
and lain down like a dog after fodder.
Breathing out fog in relief.
Sticky phlegm is tacking within his ribs at the release.

With his posture slacking
the rows of marrow creak.
Dew accumulates down
the strip of bone and leaks.

The drops,
they doze off and plummet too,
in a lethargic trickling-dribble.

Its pathetic.

Just as one drop of rain cannot be blamed for the shower
among the guilty masses he'll cower.

And the men who desecrate nature
are running over with it still.
Being adjacent to it;
defile is abysmal.

he looks straight through the glass, past his reflection,

and at the eye sore in the front yard,
and at the county permit.

And with a wooden vice—
a wooden axe,
he’s got the trees own conception.

With 20 or so ironic,
humiliating blows

nature is beaten down by its own derivative twice.

Witnessing this is a daemon,
going to flog a dead dog out of boredom.

And he would do it,
he would.

It will do.
