SCHEDAR
the snake
the bite
and
the anecdote
chase each other
through the same
shared stream of blood

gaining nothing
but the nerves they are put upon

abrasive
obsessive

circulating
within itself

a toxic enclosure of self loathing

Later, after being caught up in the storm
a shred of torn, frayed fabric
waves from the top spokes
of the surrounding
hard wired fence

its fibers flowing free

dressed as herself now
the wind carries nothing

wearing only her last words

nowhere
to be found

Traveler
But it doesn’t need
A purpose to read
The natural structure
Is the mystery

A stanza where two minds melt
Certainly words of comfort and wealth

These thing only matter to us
Catch and ride the purposeful bus
Themes and memes of rolling streams
Sleepwalking the poetical dream

If I could only keep up with the train!
Traveler Tim
Pebble falls—no sound.
Bee, lost in lotus chambers,
forgets the way home.

The drama in my head comes and goes.
This one's about seeing the patterns and letting them go instead of playing them out.
