"ated" poems
They're huddled 'round their periodic lunch tables, square and socially pyramidal, and I'm at the bottom. But they're just fluorine factions, bullies at heart trying to steal my e-lectricity with their negativity. Because I'm light, Ultra-violet violence to the eyes, Magnesium burning. Anti-matter meets matter. And that catalytic, cataclysmic energy is attractive. And they see me. They see, see, see, But I've got too many Cs on this side of my false, metallic personality. I'd better balance myself Or I'm not getting a good reaction. Classic ionic, ironic idiocy. I've bonded with you, just compounding the issues. 'Cause you're a complete acetate without a solution: now all I've got are problems. Dot Diagrams are dotted lines separating you from me, because over the years what was a bond became a partially negative charge against me. I was your oxygen, and you were carbon -ated, bubbly and explosive. We would Combust. But now all's left but to see, oh, two of your new girlfriends flanking your sides, 'cause we've decomposed, split, gone off to better things. Monatomic monotones lace my speech, and I'm pining for something to complete this emp-d shell that is myself. 'Cause I miss what we had. We had chemistry.

Chemistry
We were up all thru out the terrible night sniffling like ******* addicts like sick little youth 1930's depression oh the Great our fat lips hung like dying mosquitoes in the coming brothel of winter and her long scorched dress that I inflamed with my Vietnam stolen lover zippo of gasoline in a Sober frenzy of jealousy now her Glare is angled narrowly at lust tobacco coughing up and down side ways in dreams as if I were a butterfly addicted to cigars we were up all thru out the night counting our skin cells watching the television laugh at our faces He sobbed “how the orange metallic streets bent to our theatrical emotions on 12th street” oh the glory of our thoughts and touch was ransom was devil was god was god watching in his leather seat? Wearing his glasses reading the Bible? Or does he read Russian Literature or does he only read Latin I and I were up all last night guessing Morphine using the Sister's pay-phone copper to connect with silly 3 eyed hipster hookers their eyes wide and green with white salt like a ***** lake that you stumble upon drunkardly with a laughing Angel High on Cough Syrup and mortality amused exhilarated passion-ated by this new opportunity for Adventure's drawback which is death or Boredom MY innocents is deteriorating with Age like the alcoholic richness of 100 year old Wine sadly money monday didn't go to church hope that lady with wisdom in her hands forgives me then I ate now I starve clutching at the windows painting a boy staring at me wondering if I were real As I wonder if his thoughts are my own We were up all night translating the moon's shadows and hiccups into finger paintings and strep throat.

your left breast; we were talkin' about cosmonauts. heads in the clouds with no want or worry to never see this sphere's crust. we would disconnect from they. with no lies from the eyes we open'd palms in welcoming fashions. your right breast; lying on fetid couch, nodding off and the ambience was a dri- ving bass line. little trickle, claiming no worse than usual. nod, and trail'd off. slurs and abbrevi- ated acronyms. sta- nding in awe of emoti- onless lack of reaction.

P erception of perfection you peep through, Pasty pallid skin, polished and hairless too. O rifices overloaded with objects inserted, Onus on organs contorted and inverted. R ated R for restricted but, Revered in every racing, raving heart. N o escape, never real, a never-ending reel, Note now how it is the act and the squeal, never the feel. I t is its own doom, on a breakfast platter, glittering, S erving your imagination an unforgettable, unfulfilable fantasy. A lways present to build a prison cell and still calls you free. T rue to itself but a lie nevertheless, R uinous rapture you have there, rupturing a future, A way from the light to higher heights of depravity fly, P ursue a mirage, put on its chains now. *Did you fall too? I was hoping you'd give me a hand.*

Did You Fall Too?
This earthly body is incomprehensible. Piles of cells which make muscle, bone and nerv(ous)es. This earthly body too heavy for a spirit--too light to touch the ground. I beg you not to weigh me down. Please don't weigh me down. I try in earnest to touch your face, to feel for only a moment sweet flickers of skin on skin, but I grasp right through you. I felt about a ghost town, ghosted around; marveled upon shivers of what I knew was dead. I walked so insolently as the living through fields that whisper passage and rivers calling out on moments gripped in sun. I walked right through you. Ghosted around. Scoffed at fading memories empty pitying passages long since written down: I read you like fiction, ghost town: fancied myself so solid among your intangible willows. Ghosting around. Now come to find seeking skin on mine I breeze right through you. I try a second time, a third and come  to find it's I who's too light for living. It is I who passes through the solid walls and wails in caves; it's I who fade into night irepperable by light. I who watched the world so arrogantly as the living like it would pass before MY eyes. But here I waver unbreakable in the shaking shining of many tiny lights. Ghost am I.

I gawk at the way your calloused hands can graze my skin scraping apart what little sanity I've got left-- pieces of fabric- ated thoughts and memories litter our feet like fallen leaves in Autumn. I laugh at the way you rock cliches silently into omission, cleaning the rest of the world of originality and three word stories that play like music boxes sprinkling magic into my ears like I was a child again. I even dance in rooms with that creaking wood sound we love, easing into step with our momentum on heavy nights of weary thoughts that rattled our minds tired, breathing heavily and easily all throughout our little drumming and howls, making songs from free style instruments. I think of how I still hum myself to sleep with our tempo long after the music box has stopped playing.

“Life is, at its core, a smattering of multicolor streaks and blotches on a knock-off Jackson ******* painting, don’t you think?” you say between impossibly tiny sips of your organic loose leaf herbal something-or-other tea— or at least I think that’s what you said; I was too distracted (by the general awfulness with which your incomprehensibly long nose hairs mingled with your bristly auburn mustache as elevated nonsense poured out of your speech-hole) to fully ingest your attempt at insightfulness. But I reply: “Aren’t you saying that what you’re saying doesn’t matter anyway? Abstract expressionism, existentialism, nihilism, all that stuff? Life has no meaning—so we better talk about it!” Heh. But my dialectical cynicism is no match for your allegorical bullshit-ism: “Ah, but we create meaning! The lonely abyss of individual experience, when shared, isn’t so lonely anymore— Mon Dieu! This tea tastes like sunshine!” I can’t avoid a sigh-and-eye-roll combo. When my eyes return to the table, I see my upside-down reflection in a dessert spoon. I painted a Pollock-esque piece in 9th grade. My art teacher adjusted her cat-eye glasses, the gold parts of her hazel irises sparkling behind them while she said something about the creative subconscious. The first drip took some self-convincing; the blank canvas on the floor seemed to taunt me with the possibility of mistake. At first I pretended I was ******* himself, trying to think the elevated nonsense he may have thought. It didn’t work. My friend told me to “just go for it,” so I did. I began with green for no reason at all, and ended with yellow for reasons that I knew existed but that I couldn’t explain. Elated, I realized my painting made sense to me. “Would you like a sip?” I can’t avoid a smile because **** this tea does taste like sunshine.

I wonder about freedom. A universal right to be, who and what and where we want, gripe and moan  and even taunt. Type in our own, homemade font. Or, launch a raft into the sea. To find a place that is more liber-ated, still. But greed turns choice to tyrany. The motto? Give it all to me! Need a house? Chop down a tree. Each day is such a thrill! Until those pitter patters Turn into stomping boots. Asking who will pay the bill? Tearing down each homebrew still. Whats for dinner. More pig swill?! We're looking for recruits. Who want to live a better way In a world much less corrupt. We'll have good rules to keep in us line So prisons won't explode again this time. With committers of some petty crime. Or just failing to keep up.
