we go higher than a plane and further than a car is it not good enough to enjoy beauty from afar? we are the aliens (we are propelled to take chances with trajectory toward illumination lifting off into oblivion to our new space station) we build rocket ships to keep us up to par is it not good enough to only wish upon a star? we are the aliens

In your very pure mouth ( god save it ) clanked metal mouthpiece by cold water in a strange basement or perhaps even less Morning doves catapult leukemia Astro goth acid wars White fire black ****** mania Could we just kiss right here this September not have to wake up or sleep ever again ?

Radar antennae
Cebolla luminosa redoma, pétalo a pétalo se formó tu hermosura, escamas de cristal te acrecentaron y en el secreto de la tierra oscura se redondeó tu vientre de rocío. Bajo la tierra fue el milagro y cuando apareció tu torpe tallo verde, y nacieron tus hojas como espadas en el huerto, la tierra acumuló su poderío mostrando tu desnuda transparencia, y como en Afrodita el mar remoto duplicó la magnolia levantando sus senos, la tierra así te hizo, cebolla, clara como un planeta, y destinada a relucir, constelación constante, redonda rosa de agua, sobre la mesa de las pobres gentes. Generosa deshaces tu globo de frescura en la consumación ferviente de la olla, y el jirón de cristal al calor encendido del aceite se transforma en rizada pluma de oro. También recordaré cómo fecunda tu influencia el amor de la ensalada y parece que el cielo contribuye dándote fina forma de granizo a celebrar tu claridad picada sobre los hemisferios de un tomate. Pero al alcance de las manos del pueblo, regada con aceite, espolvoreada con un poco de sal, matas el hambre del jornalero en el duro camino. Estrella de los pobres, hada madrina envuelta en delicado papel, sales del suelo, eterna, intacta, pura como semilla de astro, y al cortarte el cuchillo en la cocina sube la única lágrima sin pena. Nos hiciste llorar sin afligirnos. Yo cuanto existe celebré, cebolla, pero para mí eres más hermosa que un ave de plumas cegadoras, eres para mis ojos globo celeste, copa de platino, baile inmóvil de anémona nevada y vive la fragancia de la tierra en tu naturaleza cristalina.

...plain, white light of conscious sight carved with the black of depictions, stretched imaginations, dance of curves and shapes, the inner vision needs a pair of shades, color it with flames of passion, free flow of feeling, breeze of dreams whistling through the meadows of vibrant forms ...from the dust this thought was born, to the dust, the vision fades, in the dust are the sparks, minerals, elements of life, fertile fields, sow the seeds ...from the groves, the forms are reborn, then the critters and grubs swarm in, eating the scraps, ******** new life into the soil, new sparks and minerals, eggs and chances, rhythms for the new generations, vibrant once more, a matter of potent renditions, the breath fueling the black depictions, white light geyser, grey clouds, tarnished ores, dirt and dust, all colored with the minerals of light ...and in that light is solar life, lunar reflections, Earthly fullfillment of 'son'shine, mother's milk, and dad's beer brewing in the astro's firmament. Dancing all through again and again of swirvy curls, recollection of scattered pearls, casted and then returned.

In every bad-day-dream, you have ever had. There was always a giant Silver Serpent. Staring at you. & Just a slithery second away from your snatch. That little ghost-tail. Apparition-creature-thing. That everyone seems to talk about? While he is. Slithering in through the cracks of your mind. & Out of your hollowed out graveyard heart. I say, Astro. Don't chu know? Ya can't trick him. Cause he is many years dead, before you. You can visit, him. You just need a different air-plane to travel in. Think about it..... You little astral-star, you. Need to listen, closely. Serpent talk is simply shady-speech for slutty-scummy-snakes.

Astro, The Astral Star.
A pastel blue backdrop behind three glass frames not a cloud in the sky not a plane flying by Yet I cannot learn to love the sky without the trails smoky puffs of vapour line a day with uncertainty For a blue sky is bland without the odd trace of imperfection, even birds in formation become the aforementioned. "I can't stand to sing the same song the same way two nights in succession" Routine it seems is its own imperfection. Give me a grey sky in June And thunder in peace A stark croaking crow Can be sheer bliss All things aligned, Excitements amiss For the brain needs A puzzle, a challenge... Confrontation, **** your Hollywood films and Normalisation, your predictable habits And false gestation; Astro-Turf fields And palm tree islands, Man-made beaches And glacier skylines Synthetic audio and bastardisation of the arts, your contempt for nature Shall be your Achilles for the world we live in, the forests and canopy's are the very providers Of human abilities, rid us of them and face extinction, this is the nature of colonisation. The earth which houses us is not formulaic, It's a collision of astronomic proportions every detail as vital as another Mankind can be primal, Oedipal and graceless, but respecting your home is not an optional gift, for we cannot survive as a species adrift.

I always saw a fascination in the stars, the far away galaxies Your eyes, the creases in your hands The way these all formed together in a constellation Exploding with stellar being Everything about you was celestial. Hours studying Zodiac signs left me empty I needed to find myself in your solar system Forcing life onto other planets Deserted meteors I saw in your mind I wanted to restore you. As I looked to you I felt ablation My mind melting away the ideas of horoscopes Making room for you and your astro being Never once wanting any sort of apastron I awaited the chaos. You are an evolved star Burning out slowly, ever so Sinking to be extragalactic A place I never imagined I was far from extraterrestrial. But orbiting around you I felt the brightness of our galactic halo Pushing deeper to reach your nucleus, I became your gravity As one, our luminosity pressed tightly on all sides Forcing darkness to disband, a large nova exploding from us And now we are an elliptical galaxy.

The boy walking in front of me With a slight limp on his left leg A backwards astro hat And dark skin underneath darker clothes Smelled of coffee And the humid breeze lifted axe from his neck Backwards and up my nose He smelled of trouble Of seventh grade solitude And looked as if  he walked out of my fifth grade memories Still I thought of you ***** and dark Dope across your tee shirt Freckles spotting your smile that press into your dimples Lifting the corners of my mouth I'd like to lick cologne from your neck Made of sweat and ****** solitude You made none of my memories Smelled and looked of nothing familiar Only past daydreams Maybe I'm just tired I was up all night thinking of Ma She has always smelled of Ck perfume No matter how much money we had She looks like all of my memories Her short boy haircut Her androgynous women's work suit I remember her younger Still loving women Made of muscle, teaching me how to run After soccer and before the gym At night She went out in slinky tank tops Made of sparkles or silk, and sometimes both Leaving, she'd kiss my forehead as she left me with father and my 101 Dalmatians sippy cup I'd hug around her neck And breathe in her Ck perfume

There will be astronauts who will take your space. Wanting no more space between you Enveloping you in a sheet of stars and warm spheres With the promise of your love living forever like stars because you’re the only thing prettier than the milkyway His love for you is bigger than all the galaxies combined He’ll say To heat up that heart of yours, till it collides with his like shooting stars Two universes become one But stars don’t live forever In love as deep as space you can’t avoid black holes That will consume all your love, all your strength, happiness until there is no more You Or him Or love Just to spit you out into lower atmospheres And hey, Andromeda is kind of pretty too You are no longer good enough to go to space Mainly because they made you so Earth feels like hell once you’ve been to heaven, Trust me I know I have been deprived of my fuel too

La calle se llenó de tomates, mediodía, verano, la luz se parte en dos mitades de tomate, corre por las calles el jugo. En diciembre se desata el tomate, invade las cocinas, entra por los almuerzos, se sienta reposado en los aparadores, entre los vasos, las mantequilleras, los saleros azules. Tiene luz propia, majestad benigna. Debemos, por desgracia, asesinarlo: se hunde el cuchillo en su pulpa viviente, es una roja víscera, un sol fresco, profundo, inagotable, llena las ensaladas de Chile, se casa alegremente con la clara cebolla, y para celebrarlo se deja caer aceite, hijo esencial del olivo, sobre sus hemisferios entreabiertos, agrega la pimienta su fragancia, la sal su magnetismo: son las bodas del día, el perejil levanta banderines, las papas hierven vigorosamente, el asado golpea con su aroma en la puerta, es hora! vamos! y sobre la mesa, en la cintura del verano, el tomate, astro de tierra, estrella repetida y fecunda, nos muestra sus circunvoluciones, sus canales, la insigne plenitud y la abundancia sin hueso, sin coraza, sin escamas ni espinas, nos entrega el regalo de su color fogoso y la totalidad de su frescura.

Oda al tomate
like swirling colors, we begin at a party. at a school in a town and a time on earth with the people and the streets and the trees. tv’s/ like swirling oil of holy alignment. we begin as a glob  (or embryo) tiny little me/you/each    (organic ****** as children, involved and wearing warm hats, we wait on furniture. the home stretch is free unto college, unto seasons, moss or mold, to bud new spells. boy dunked in the river/ baptized. transformed into horror. (summer slash winter) little brother, little baby orb of water / air / mountain(s). fish. my son becomes a stoner. he puts a giant-squid on his head & dances the cha-cha. star ghoul & star-calc, skull of light/ bits of she beaming through and known only as the sky at night. charted; astro-logically. in goatsblood. & the mathematic sacraments of babylon. meat and feast on forests of tall city steel beasts in beams; towers; with the blood of men to raise them; molochi. (the consumed one) (consumers) swallowing dreams and family force nutrients for more and more and more; as said to sustain. for life is to devour.

I like to talk **** when I write - so - Astro management Secure the banished talisman Martyrdom and ice cream Melt of the establishment. What's that? You don't recognize this as a style in your text book? Doesn't fit inside your box, eh? It's poetry **** face! I'm not writing for a grade. This isn't meant to fit anywhere other than outside of my head. Can't relate to me? Chances are you've fit in with the normalcy of manufactured lies - I admire your blissful ignorance. Go ahead and cite your work. I do this to get relief from the APA format. What's it feel like for someone who ***** at living? Keep reading, you're not alone.

Hypocritical Coincidence
I am sorry to announce that due to intermittent thick cloud cover, (I am so a lover of meteor showers) our viewing is cancelled, no wait is that a clearing in the sky the deep blue colour and are those stars not near but afar, nope, just some plane, making for Bellingham or Blaine, might as well be Spain. Shower me with flowers. (no thorns please) Shower me with (dark)chocolate. Shower me with meteors. No not me personally. What lights their tales What makes their beards Flame...to warm my heart I know the physics, astro-too Does it affect me, like it affects you Just one hour of a meteor shower I'll be good for another year of power, like one super hero (or ONE with a super lot of zeroes, after) We can hold an after meteor party at my place and your all invited and I will put your names on the guest list, now we can't now we won't there is no shower here this night clouds shield my sight they are like a blight on the fruit that I toiled for a year, readied my sleep cycle, pruned back tree tops to see the horizon, set up lines of sight to track their paths this night across the heavens but now I will go to bed, if you show up to a dark house, I am sorry in advance as I said sadly at the start the show is cancelled and for my part I will try again tomorrow night!

The Show is Cancelled
A blank empty canvas Pure as the winter's snow Open as but a vast window Seeing deep into it's soul. The mind ticks in emotional frustration Relics of imagination fly and form Particles of atomic consciousness Gathers and flows like an Astro storm. White wash covers the surface The first invocation soothing and mild Then images gather before the eyes Like a raging storm, fierce and wild. The pallet is filled with rainbow mixtures Here one joins to the alchemist's dream Establishing upon board, paper or canvas The unfoldment of the creative stream. Brush in hand, Like an ancient wand One casts the horizon like a spell Summoning, coaxing, those tides within Where the possession conquered, flowed and fell. Dashes here, strokes there Balancing the tones within each hew, The thoughts so fast, mind captured Projections all of that inner you. Murky and shapeless at the start But shadows enhance, inward glance Light engulfs and shines but through The eyes captured to the romance. The artist gallant before his glory Yet! Never fulfilled by its view Playing upon its essence and structure He draws upon images new. One here becomes the timeless Shaman Working the magic of natures way Gathering the similarities and imbuing with fire Elevating ever the thought to the creative day. Or like a modern mystic Grasped tight in spiritual bliss subduing into but representations The reflections of the heaven's kiss. But all in all the artist is whether by paint, sculpture, acrylic or oil A voyager of the main stream existence His vision of his own scared soil. The goal is not unlike any science To acquire that bridge of untold reason For artist down throughout the ages Have awakened the soul to its season. The emotions arise, fly, excite Those creatures of the inspirational mind Poets, musicians, painter, writers By what ever character there we find All artists, All Magicians. Alisdaire O'Caoimph

Astro space dust peaking over the bows Jesters prance across your belly causeing blindness And practical giants pick your clothes for tonight. Although we have danced together Yesterdays lunch backs up our crusades. The spiked pants have formed a crust Around the water bed Filled with the tears of your family. Your halos burn in the fire of the ages Scorching the carpet. Liquor and wine fill the packs A toast to life is a thirst quenching mission Taking away our lust and bleaches our skin Forgotten births spread across the floor Covered in last nights brew. The night bodies jangle around under the gauze Bells toll in the distance but the breath drows it out. Under the bridge, behind the stores, In the Inns, out inside. The physics are catestrophic in their own way. Crys begin once the breathing stops and the men leave. Today we are creatures but how did we get this way Who was the one who came up with the idea? Don't question yourself The leopards can't chase you forever Give yourself to the hunters They starve another night.

¿Sabes tú? Mi vida es como un canto que nadie ha de cantar, pues tuvo las violentas inquietudes del mar y el espejismo de la droga hindú... Yo anduve errante, soñador proscrito, un año, o veinte, o quizás cien, y medí las pirámides de Egipto y las murallas de Jerusalén. Yo tuve más tesoros que los Zares, y un diamante mayor que el Gran Mogol, y en cada uno de los siete mares me vio náufrago el sol. Yo visité con tembloroso paso, como quien rinde un fúnebre tributo, la húmeda celda de Torcuato Tasso y el oscuro taller de Benvenuto. Yo busqué en los jardines de Versalles la huella leve de María Antonieta, y lloré por Ronaldo en Roncesvalles y por Ícaro en Creta. Y como fin de una aventura rara, enloquecido por un astro hostil, fui jeque de un aduar en el Sahara y negrero en la Costa de Marfil. Aún guardo en el cristal de una redoma, para unir mis creencias y mis dudas, un pelo de la barba de Mahoma y una hoja del árbol donde se ahorcara Judas. Tuve un corcel de resonante casco que florecía en la llanura seca, y mendigué en las calles de Damasco, y oré en una mezquita de La Meca. Y mucho más, que huyó de mi memoria y que quizás no ha de volver jamás: días de amor y odio, de fracaso y de gloria; y mucho más... y mucho más... ¿Sabes tú? Quizás nada ha sido cierto. Acaso únicamente lo soñé... -o sé bien si dormido o despierto; no sé...- Quizás la vida que he vivido ha sido tan abrumadoramente ****** que inventé los recuerdos por no morir de olvido, y nunca vi de cerca el mar. Pero si sé que he naufragado en una lágrima de mujer: fue un naufragio romántico, a la luz de la luna, y me quedé en el fondo, sin querer.

Aquí los antiguos recibían al fuego Aquí el fuego creaba el mundo Al mediodía las piedras se abren como frutos El agua abre los párpados La luz resbala por la piel del día Gota inmensa donde el tiempo se refleja y se sacia A la española el día entra pisando fuerte Un rumor de hojas y pájaros avanza Un presentimiento de mar o mujeres El día zumba en mi frente como una idea fija En la frente del mundo zumba tenaz el día La luz corre por todas partes Canta por las terrazas Hace bailar las casas Bajo las manos frescas de la yedra ligera El muro se despierta y levanta sus torres Y las piedras dejan caer sus vestiduras Y el agua se desnuda y salta de su lecho Más desnuda que el agua Y la luz se desnuda y se mira en el agua Más desnuda que un astro Y el pan se abre y el vino se derrama Y el día se derrama sobre el agua tendida Ver oír tocar oler gustar pensar Labios o tierra o viento entre veleros Sabor del día que se desliza como música Rumor de luz que lleva de la mano a una muchacha Y la deja desnuda en el centro del día Nadie sabe su nombre ni a qué vino Como un poco de agua se tiende a mi costado El sol se para un instante por mirarla La luz se pierde entre sus piernas La rodean mis miradas como agua Y ella se baña en ellas más desnuda que el agua Como la luz no tiene nombre propio Como la luz cambia de forma con el día

Cerro de la estrella
And then he didn't come back The summers passed, autumns faded, winters roared, and springs bloomed but he's nowhere to be seen. As she made her way to the shore, she felt the gentle breeze and the embrace of the waves and as she looked up; she saw the moon alone in the vast nothingness of the sky with no star to keep her company. She remembered him, thinking that maybe the stars are gone for the moon is too broken and is not as illuminated as it was the first time. Then she remembered the first time he laid eyes on her. His eyes shone so bright, held much admiration in his gaze that she couldn't understand for she is nothing sort of a goddess the moon had blessed. None of her poems caught the light and the life in his eyes when they first met: of how it looked silver and storm that reflects his turbulent emotions, of how his eyes reached the depths of her soul with his gaze, of how he saw her as his moon. None of them could ever describe how his eyes demand to be stared at. None of them. But then, he was a fleeting light like a poem you will only read once for it is blindingly painful that it hurts looking the second time. And now, she feels a part of her is missing as she search for the stars up above. And then she fixed her gaze, closing her eyes to the moon: wishing that when he said "It's because of you." He doesn't mean goodbye. Wishing he doesn't mean she's the reason why he's gone. Wishing that dreams aren't supposed to be just dreams for when they become reality, they take away the magical feeling. A few tears escaped her closed lids and glistened as they bathe on the light of the moon as she thought of the last poem she'll ever write to him. And then she finally whispered hoping the wind will bring it to him: " And maybe,    paintings and poetry    couldn't hold a candle    To every emotion    we once had.     You     hold a key     when we     first met.     I should've known     that that key     is not for me     For I     was never     your home. "

And then she finally whispered hoping the wind will bring it to him: " And maybe,    paintings and poetry    couldn't hold a candle    To every emotion    we once had.     You     hold a key     when we     first met.     I should've known     that that key     is not for me     For I     was never     your home.

I remember so much that I wish I could forget.   This is a poem about Psalm 23 choked out through tears.   This is a poem about astro vans and                                       tractor lawn mowers and                                       driveway car washes and                                       small garden spaces and                                       digger wasps and                                       three wolves and a moon.   This is about the Backstreet Boys and                               Def Leppard and                               Kenny Chesney.   “Dreams” by The Cranberries. About waterparks and             swim lessons and             the smell of chlorine.   Fresh cut grass.  Bonfire smoke permeating through the house.   Grey diamond tiles on white linoleum.                                                                   Hands clenched down on washcloths. Muddled.  It’s all so muddled.  Stuck beneath                                                            brain matter and cerebrospinal fluid and                                                               down, down, down beneath the lake.   How can I dig it out while also digging it down deeper?   I want to forget it all.  No memory, no pain, no ******* problem.   Goldfish life: a pipedream.

Please Do Not Repeatedly Tell the Dementia Patient That Their Loved One Has Died; Blissful Unawareness is Considered Most Humane

Sir Isaac Newton wasn't "using his head" When the "aha moment" fruit fell He assumed it was gravity, an attraction to the earth It was weight and decay rate, no romantic pell Many scream "separation of church and state" In the Constitution you will not find that phrase But in a personal letter to the Danbury congregation It has been arbitrarily elevated to "law" in our nation In the Scopes trial Evolution was criticized Scopes was arrested, the masses cried "victimized" To play on the "heart-strings" of the "under-educated" Those worshippers of Evolution were placated Hypocrites obscuring all God-given laws Building a "strawman" with individual straws Satan has questioned all God's "thou shalt nots" NASA has filmed in a studio basement "our Astro-nots" Jesus' words have been futurized by Baptist dispensation Jesus said plainly it's "in this generation" Scripture is not a "wax nose" you can eisegete Exegete in the present tense Greek How do we equitably represent all voices, in a Public school system that claims they consider all choices Public schools don't exist, "special agendized" schools do Claiming universal intolerance, they're intolerant of truth Let us say in the "Dagon bye" to all "blessings in disguise" We'll be in[spire]d by the "blessings in the skies" We're all from Adam's atoms by God's sovereignty Lord roll my soul in humility, cajole my spirit patiently

Scare"Quotes"
Ya se abre el palacio de ébano de la noche, y salen en tropel los pajes de los sueños, a ilusionar los ojos de la virgen dormida y a ungir con miel la urna de su boca sin besos… Yo, espero en la alta noche. No sé qué es lo que viene, ni qué ansiedad me azota, ni siquiera qué espero… No hay más rumor que el tímido de algún mueble que cruje, ni más luz que el de un astro que se mira en mi espejo… Ya todos los amantes dormirán abrazados, a un lado las revueltas sabanas, y en sus nervios estará ardiendo aún la caricia postrera, que dejó acaso trunca la llegada del sueño… Yo me siento muy solo en la alta noche. Solo cual si estuviera en medio de algún vasto desierto. Yo solamente escucho lo que dice la noche; yo solamente sueño con los ojos abiertos… Ya en sus cunas rosadas, sonrisa tras sonrisa, entre sueños, los niños revivirán sus juegos; **** cuerda a sus trompos y rodarán sus arcos, y beberán el néctar de los besos maternos… Yo espero en la alta noche. No sé qué es lo que viene, ni qué inquietud me abruma, ni siquiera qué espero… Yo solamente miro los ángeles que pasan, con sus alas tan blancas, con sus ojos tan tiernos… Ya en los antros hediondos, soñando, los malvados se ven tras fuertes rejas, como animales fieros, o ante la pavorosa silueta del patíbulo, entre antorchas y armas y embozados de ***** Yo me encuentro muy solo, muy solo en la alta noche, oyendo el rechinar de los dientes del Miedo, cuando cruzan las sombras de los ajusticiados y aúlla el ***** can de los remordimientos… Ya dormirán las bestias… y si ellas también sueñan, soñarán en que tienen un amo más benévolo, o en galopes fantásticos, o en cópulas violentas, o en baños en el río, o en festines de pienso… Yo estoy solo en la noche, como superviviente de una inmensa catástrofe de todo el Universo, viendo a las pesadillas, cual monstruosas arañas, tejer torturas entre gajos del silencio… Yo estoy profundamente solo en la alta noche, cual si estuviera en medio de algún vasto desierto, viendo el desfile torvo de los ángeles malos y el vuelo musical de los ángeles buenos… Yo solamente escucho lo que dice la noche; yo solamente sueño con los ojos abiertos!…

My anger is a gift. My anger is a gift And for, that you will not acquit me. So judge me. I get it, You wanna stick up for the little man But what are the terms and conditions you got written on your hand? Is that freedom? Determined to rid the vermin Hatreds poisonous venom Annihilation of oppression By concreting a standard that fits your balance? Fascism Disguised by liberal ways. Cause the left won the culture war And we must fulfill the agenda to save the day. Or is it about the money? With a buck in my right hand And my left fist full of pills grasping in half prayer for rehab They say I need help. My mental status is high on bad health I'm caged in my brain, All 9 circles of hell With no guiding light, I'm always told to tread light My heart beats questions, my words start fights. I am the snow storm of Capricorn Loose chains around my neck Pentacles Cups Wands Swords Astro-Tarot cross burns with no exhaust At the bottom of the gate, You can see my bones in Lucifer's mouth. So why do I feel angelic? My anger is prolific Biblical scriptures leave me destined for heathen obsessions. I am the division No balance without permission My air fuels fires and creates unison. I am destruction But rebirth in the same phase. Cycling the celestial waives Swearing in God's name. I can't be the only one Who feels that condescending thumb We must create a stage to fit the population who wants to express their pain to his son. But its crowded, About to cave. The weight of the world will be best defined in mass graves. And here comes my gift. My anger is my bliss. I can't come to grips on why the world is the way it is. I respect this age for hands raised in rage. But I will be quick to slap down others who think they are center stage. I'll break anyone's four walls and follow Shakespeare in a Socratic annoyance. This is a moment of clairvoyance Repeat these words with me and find a voice; Solve Coagula Solve Coagula Dissolve the paradigm To form a new life Solve Coagula Solve Coagula My gift to the world Is written on my arms.
