On Being Four Years Old

We live in our own world, A world that is too small For you to stoop and enter Even on hands and knees, The adult subterfuge. And though you probe and pry With analytic eye, And eavesdrop all our talk With an amused look, You cannot find the centre Where we dance, where we play, Where life is still asleep Under the closed flower, Under the smooth shell Of eggs in the cupped nest That mock the faded blue Of your remoter heaven.

Children's Song
You see a kaleidoscopic spongesque speck pushed into a blur over your vision, Sitting on air & feathers. You sit on air rather than feathers, Incased in drywall, Surrounded by your worldly possessions, Drowning in sweat, Suffocating from air, The hum of coupled fans waltzes’ into your skull, A metallic mind prints mass media Via a melodramatic faux-vintage situation into your skull, There’s the pitter-patter of post-traumatic pondering in your skull, A Mexican Coca-Cola clutched in your left hand, Phillip-Morris owns the pocket on your breast so that they sit closest to your heart, Pabst Blue Ribbon has carved rights to your liver, You have an over analytic sense of humor and well-being. Now you decode your day. Now you chastise your intuition for lustful engagements with shadow people. Though you have no qualms with this, You enjoy yourself from time to time. But cannot you imagine a more climatic proposition, In a less disposable universe? Where corners are cut, Shoving dignity & quality out the door Is where impractical risks are made. However, All you ponder now is the blur pushed into the edge of your eye. Perhaps it is a microorganism rendezvousing with another microorganism. Though they would have no concept of predetermination.

10W. Ten Words. [the 8th.]
An atelier, her small world Dawn's begun, it's time to work What do Muses have in store? She walks with shirt and nothing more Closer to the easel, brush in her hands Nothing concrete is in her plans She listens to the song of morning With ideas slowly forming She mixes paints, breathes them in Such beauty just ought to be a sin Hand dances on the canvas blank A ballet of the highest rank Possessed by gods, she paints and paints Power surges through her veins Fix imperfections, a final stroke From trance she suddenly awoke Two steps back, sharp eye of a critic Mind that observes, an analytic And when she's happy, she sits on the ground Just looking and looking, not making a sound In her mind's eye, she feels his embrace Melancholic smile, tears on her face She painted for him, though he can't see "A one for the future, for him and for me"

Little painter
"WHAT have I earned for all that work,' I said, 'For all that I have done at my own charge? The daily spite of this unmannerly town, Where who has served the most is most defaned, The reputation of his lifetime lost Between the night and morning. I might have lived, And you know well how great the longing has been, Where every day my footfall Should have lit In the green shadow of Ferrara wall; Or climbed among the images of the past -- The unperturbed and courtly images -- Evening and morning, the steep street of Urbino To where the Duchess and her people talked The stately midnight through until they stood In their great window looking at the dawn; I might have had no friend that could not mix Courtesy and passion into one like those That saw the wicks grow yellow in the dawn; I might have used the one substantial right My trade allows: chosen my company, And chosen what scenery had pleased me best. Thereon my phoenix answered in reproof, "The drunkards, pilferers of public funds, All the dishonest crowd I had driven away, When my luck changed and they dared meet my face, Crawled from obscurity, and set upon me Those I had served and some that I had fed; Yet never have I, now nor any time, Complained of the people.' All I could reply Was: "You, that have not lived in thought but deed, Can have the purity of a natural force, But I, whose virtues are the definitions Of the analytic mind, can neither close The eye of the mind nor keep my tongue from speech.' And yet, because my heart leaped at her words, I was abashed, and now they come to mind After nine years, I sink my head abashed.

My analytic mind can not define that which is truly you. You may take my body break down the parts weld them back together but you will never find me. I am an engine of ever-burning fuel I am a howling wind unseen and out of reach. I was not created by any understanding on earth and thus can not be destroyed by anything we know. I am finite and infinite vulnerable and invincible I can only be touched by the soft hands and sharp nails of love.

The Seeker and the Soul
Sitting in silence, Observing. Not all notice the girl, Sitting at the back of the room, Her black hair falling between her eyes. She blows the wisps out of the way, Continues analysing. Watching couples ****** each other, She gags.

The Analytic
Disarray. Disarray. This faulted circuitry is frayed. Systems can't confirm how much more this one will take. Analytic processes high priority. Still all sense's strayed. Logical partitions unravel beneath the stress to break. Crystalline optics upon this strange world of subconscious noise gaze. Program failure. Segment reboot. Comprehension metrics left in daze. Disorder. Disorder. Memory overflow. Execute purge. Vent incinerated cores. Remainder to mobilize and merge. Overwhelming, cacophonous static. A turbulent distraction. Individual consciousness upon earth names it "compassion." Empathy communicators struggle to gain adequate traction. Perception requires of processors exhaustive refashion. Limited sentient life in fragile flesh and bone shells, Possessing organic electronics, upon unfathomable concepts it dwells. Chaos. Chaos. Language insufficient to allow abstract assimilation. Judgment of "human" notions is not within this one's station. Now attempting to recalculate trajectory of exploration...

Disarray. Disarray.
A long tear streamed down the face of the once proud arrogant prince He who had all the answers in his youth has since aged and the stage he finds himself at is Packed with riddles that leave his thoughts crippled by simple questions like When was the last time you were happy The gravity of the question Created a sort of hesitation in his thought process That left him dumbfounded Drowning in the recess of his mind contemplating how to get out of his own head

Contemplating How
Hope to say, “I want you to stay” A crucial time for you to convey. Confusing steps, and raillery play My aims and concepts previously stray. Fastened bottle of my endless desire Courage to reveal, because heart can’t lie. The panic starts when I see you inspire Of a unique impact that hits me so high Analytic reasons and my effort to hide The simple image, stuck on my mind Your absence affects my sight like a blind The presence of you... @R.A

“My Inert Idea”
I am my own biggest critic second thoughts; parasitic with eyes harshly analytic leave my hand paralytic my pen has become sedentary words won’t come as necessary what used to be so elementary no longer comes as secondary I read and re-read obsessively I write and re-write aggressively until a poem forms progressively until a poem forms successfully

My Own Biggest Critic
Literal thinker an analytic mind this translates into an over-thinker thinking that the small details that make this world are all connecting and all crashing down among us every potential gear slip twisted metal in a field of flames the no's spoken the fists thrown the off switch is gone. lost. broken. living life is an instinct a reaction not a thought process but some voices are hard to silence

Puncture wound, when pressure was applied to the chest cavity, it collapsed; the streets were blistering with heat and buckling with weight, his head was full of an unidentified substance, the noose was tied and the body supplied the weight, their job was done; the silt of a lifetime of nightmares coated the frontal lobes of the body's brain, the cave was opened indefinitely.

analytic sores
off along the wall, head in clouds: dissemblance, smoothed, covered, glistening. repetitions in static, falling rain. repetitions outside, under the porch. light like waves in consistent motion and removal. too many names. too much love. swollen up, like knotted deck timber in this downpour. still and left to walk home. alone, again. happens all the time, by choice; fine delusion. by flames licking at the cusp. out under the irreplaceable canopy we're left, slowly rotating. soft magnetic fields. candles encased in ice. clear night. words tip in enclosures of crisp unfolding breath. significance. diffusion. harmonicity. my analytic heart. decomposition. won't sleep. won't let out. your tender clasp. vines wash up and around finger tips, around ventricles. shuttin' down, relentless deceleration. relenting pace. pinched aorta. all under some fictitious caress. some later eventuality. some song never uttered. not yet. not just yet.

I did a fine job this time Mucking up my own thoughts spiraling me down To the pitfalls of logic Where I loose the poet And attach the analytic mind straight to the brain Forego the heart Snip it like some bothersome string attached to my favorite shirt But here is where I wake And realize that though logic and rhetoric help the structure of the self The spirit is starving behind those cold bars Scared to come out lest it be cut once more Violated like a child Helpless to the mindless bumbling oafish screams of listless beings Whom's only goal is to crush it Maim it to something other that what it is Taper it's wings And stunt the flexing whiles of its witless abandon Oh how it shone That beautiful fluctuating penumbra of brilliance That taps into the ether and brings forth light and wonder Abandoning my skepticism at least for now I bathe in the glory of freedom I have unbound

{the analytic begins to feel}
You see, I like putting things down My desk remains as cluttered as my confusing social dance card so I'm always dropping something Things have always felt clumsy in my hands rather I have always found the act of holding to be clumsy A sentence structure a train of thought a plan, slippery Even now, it feels better to lean over the notebook laying open on my stomach level bed and simply spill these insecurities and analytic gratuities onto the page rather than house their possibilities for even one more second And we both know that as the ink dries on the page it ***** all of the you out of the air that otherwise would, and now again will, taste so stale And I only said we both know because that one sounds a lot better with some backup And maybe for the same reason that I have never seen my father ask for directions I feel much better knowing where I left the compass than which way is north And maybe for the same reason that some things we talked about were never said I feel like these messages can carry these encryptions flimsy as they may be But maybe they cannot.

holes in my
It's been a long and strange trip. but don't fret - it isn't yet at the end point. I've always loved the morning, but I'm far from a morning person. Which seems pretty symbolic to me, but I'm an English major so it's kind of my job to be overly analytic. The hardest part about growing up is keeping track of who you are, and trying to figure out if who you are going to be matches with who you want to be. The smell old Bukowski's ashtray clings to my clothes. and everything that I don't have the courage to say out loud can be seen in my eyes and the lines of my face. And I know this will sound absolutely ******* ridiculous - but in modern society it's hard to be a man. gone are the days of Clint Eastwood kicking *** and taking names. All we have now are morons and ****** bags. I read somewhere that we are the quitting generation, and that ****** me off. Because the faults of the current generation are always due to the previous generation. But people are ******** by nature who can't take responsibility when their plants begin to wilt. And my Dad quit on me - not the other way around. And I know that this probably isn't fun to read - but frankly I don't give a **** This isn't something which is going to be published - more so some much needed venting space. And I'm trying to figure out how to bring this thick wall of rambling text to an end, but endings don't really exist. Just unknown places which can not be followed. so instead of assaulting your eyes and your poetic sensibilities for another ten lines I will say this: If you read this and didn't immediately think of killing me or yourself, then thank you. If you did, then feel free to pretend I never had the gall to write such an ugly, boring, self-indulgent piece. And I hope you all have a nice a day

wake up every 5 am with coffee stains under your eyes the bitter analytic was once a child with daisies in her hair but now there's only demons in her head she wasn't beautiful as the ocean but she had the depth the type that always noticed the shift in the air after midnight bright eyes turned into her mother's, sullen and pitiless they told her to stop looking at the stars and to start looking at her future soft hands turned into her father's, brutal and calloused they told her to stop fixing people and to start fixing herself there was a child with roots in her veins and hands softer than flower petals she talked about the universes stamped on her fingerprints and compared them to the bark of trees but now she only talks to her demons the ones that ripped the daisies out of her hair you watch the news, think "oh, how horrible", when someone's been murdered and feel horrible when you realize you didn't feel a thing grab a coffee, always black, rub your eyes and hope you get through the day without malfunctioning the earth gave her a youth her parents couldn't offer her but the world took that away this isn't growing up, this is oblivion

actuality
Pass me my pen, So I may go to battle, There is a war brewing, Between head and heart. Troops must be called, In the form of neatly, Printed, black letters, Each marching promptly, After one another. "We cannot let the emotions win," The head orders steadily, Always analytic. "Think of what good could come of this," The heart says to her troupes, Her tone far gentler than that of the head. Each side has merit, Evenly matched. A dual is bubbling, One which will only have, A ****** end. One side will win out, But there will be no victor. So pass me my pen, So I may go to war, My words will fight the battle, Upon the pale page.

I live at the ******* mall And I’ve got that eternal beauty blues for in the end eudaimonia was all part of the clever ruse The point of what? I ask of you Cause there was nothing else to do Its true Sometimes I just wonder why that’s all Flights of birds, bucolic minds our Tortured, Analytic souls The mind boggles as the heart dies when the autumn brings the cold as so the white dwarf shines I just came for the free ride On the Crest of That Beautiful wave described in words that signify all the wordless, senseless time   for bleached are the ones on the road, freshly paved when the relationship is master and slave Sublime is but profound confusion
