You think Bowie really cared for karate?

A room.

Need to displace to move.

Arrangement of places you’ve been

******* you in like some Kansas twister that swept you off your porch

just after you open the door for the first time today.

I awake from a dream.

I don’t remember what was said.

Clumsily laying letters over felt footsteps.

A semblance of something too big to tell you.

I cannot move it but I’ll say whatever to mean it.

A body subject to the wind

ringing against the world, accenting the edges in sharp cries

like a dinner bell that never rests.

How’s the sky taste Major?

You think Bowie really cared for karate?

Only superficially because in some perverse way it was a form of art.

A Darwinian heyday exhibition for the human condition.

I’m alive ************ let’s keep it that way.

In every way.

Don’t want to be too narrow.

Need some space to move.

The past that comes to us now,

first came from our future.

Even the ones that wilted under the shadow of satisfaction.

Even the objects flowing through this wicked light show of so much contained in three tiny axis’

Please chart your love according to x y and z without dimensionally reducing the picture.

Don’t worry darling I’ll wait, remember it’s there we first met.
