Poems
Aug 2016
A Smoldering Family of Ferns
I’ll be flying smoke screens on Venus's ******.
At the drop of the letter orange
an orangutans purse strings pulls at my wallet.
A corpse's spindle finger pointing me in a direction…
Trees bending shadows to blind the day.
A wind whispering to me in a human tone.
A madness telling
me
to leave
it
alone.
I’m so at home it’s unknown
and overly underwhelmed.
I’m grabbing at the helm,
but it was holding me afloat.
I pushed down so hard
by the time I pulled back
it broke under the pressure
of not understanding how to cope.
A final rope cutting me.
A blackened fuel from a golf swing
placing my humanity upon the desert’s green.
I could believe anything
if I will accept my own lies...
A twisted frame from a mangled mind.
It’s only just polished time
that gave us away...
A reflection show portraying all others
in directions we now sometimes go.
A final stroll down a scars
burrowed walkway
leading me back towards
the one remaining vertebrate…
An amphibian brain
in a leader of men.
I didn't even point it out,
all over again.
