**** your wings when they walk.
when they ***** and sting when she talks.
when the sky
is a stone.... just skip it ‘cross
your pond.
and only linger
when she’s
gone….

Gone.

Gone.

" we are not well, " said the silent thing... as I was too much love in a small space... condemned to mold spores
and bundles of grieving. Having kept my leaving -
to my Self-Escape... and my geometry
on flat enough planes.
But Alas... here i come with all the energy
of dampening peaks. Hurling Valleys.
clawing at your faceless
face...
Summoning the rude glyph of my industrial surrender
to my Human weakness
masquerading as a Party
of One.

there's always a nerve
you cannot polish for a Joy
or a hell that
has epiphanies
to elude
but not
escape.

And as for you...
Only You -

For
Me.

time is a shrew and a villain that loves the mockery of your effort.
it boils a rabbit for Easter and swaddles you in kindling
to stoke the fires of your Kafka.
but you have no program to bug.
only your lost faith.
and your word.

a net is a place to keep holes.
no one can argue that.
but who argues You?

the weekend blathers and every owl in my who is pleading the 5th
and nothing but the cruel sun is laughing… doubtless, I have no harbor
for my haunted canoe. only a rope and fathoms underneath
my falling or float.
the fully automatic heart is at every point…. pointless.
it must love to signify or else fail
where the center of a thing
is a broken heart.

or You.

what are you doing now?
I ask because i care.
are you under the bus
and happy there?
or are you just about to
be someone?
and have you thought
about Nothing till it hurt?

i only ask because I’m curious.
the way we dare is the way we live!
we are not precise but we endure
the curvature of Truth
when we seek it…
we have no rings for Saturn
that have no hands
to pray with.

Life is “ I will wait. “
it has no key to Time
buteverydoorofit.
i cannot lunge so much
as i may linger.
i am only loving the world
as much as Myself.

and I can’t behave.

so death is not
a Yes.

and Life is all that's left -
to get right.
