"attendant" poems
the ***** ghost comes to those who have suffered long the agony of torrid loves hunger he is a savior that needs to be saved a glittering pageant of ****** despair his color sapphire a weeping shell a dark cloud of smoldering ash that never burns out he is heat and light he can smell the musk between your legs taste tears of want as if they are his own his **** bursting like trees bludgeon hard, substanceless no you can't put your finger on it your heart a weeping furnace your parched mouth dire is his the emptiness between your legs is his he comes to you a vacant smudge then, white attendant with black eyed gems be not afraid he was lost in life a moralist who could not find Jacobs ladder nor free him self of false boundaries set upon him by the good people their minds spider bites and corpses who imagined a god who loved them by decrees of thou shalt not not not and did not know that flesh needs flesh and only human love could save him then to the grave, just a ***** ghost theory to the living

***** Ghost Theory
One need only look to the four winds to find four frowns; eight sad eyes straining to see through stained glass tears. The man said "I die daily" but he didn't have a constant stream of status updates to maintain. I define myself daily. Being special has thus far not protected me from the unbearable weight of today. All of the analog cigarettes and old fashioned daydreams in the world cannot save me now. If I'm not seen am I really here? Heavy hearts and weary heads reside respectively in the chests and on the necks of everyone I encounter. The gas station attendant feels empty and is bereft of a sense of irony. The world ends not with bang OR whimper, but with a deep and baleful sigh... with a deep and baleful sigh... with a deep and baleful...

My True Name: "A way with words (and sentiments)"

These nowhere towns, Mountain tops snow-capped long through march, All else, Enshrouded in brown. Though people live here, And seems they aren't broken down. The paint peels from the motel, The mother tends to her daze, The attendant ponders the insects of the sill, Tumbleweed the only things, un-willing of being still. Life is good here, In these hazy, Background, Nowhere towns.

Changing Names and Changing Faces Changing Times and Changing Places The emptiness remains the same The Sunna Sutta, Part of the Pali canon, Relates that the monk Ananda, Buddha's attendant asked, "It is said that the world is empty, the world is empty, lord. In what respects is it said that the world is empty?" The Buddha replied, "Insofar as it is empty of a self Or of anything pertaining to a self: Thus it is said, Ananda, that the world is empty. Form is emptiness Emptiness is form Emptiness is not separate from form, Form is not separate from emptiness Whatever is form is emptiness, Whatever is emptiness is form One time to the next time That is all it is Try to be a good person Be kind to others Show others the love that Jesus showed I just want a good friend is all That would be nice Someone to share my life with

The emptiness
I Just as my fingers on these keys Make music, so the self-same sounds On my spirit make a music, too. Music is feeling, then, not sound; And thus it is that what I feel, Here in this room, desiring you, Thinking of your blue-shadowed silk, Is music. It is like the strain Waked in the elders by Susanna; Of a green evening, clear and warm, She bathed in her still garden, while The red-eyed elders, watching, felt The basses of their beings throb In witching chords, and their thin blood Pulse pizzicati of Hosanna. II In the green water, clear and warm, Susanna lay. She searched The touch of springs, And found Concealed imaginings. She sighed, For so much melody. Upon the bank, she stood In the cool Of spent emotions. She felt, among the leaves, The dew Of old devotions. She walked upon the grass, Still quavering. The winds were like her maids, On timid feet, Fetching her woven scarves, Yet wavering. A breath upon her hand Muted the night. She turned-- A cymbal crashed, Amid roaring horns. III Soon, with a noise like tambourines, Came her attendant Byzantines. They wondered why Susanna cried Against the elders by her side; And as they whispered, the refrain Was like a willow swept by rain. Anon, their lamps' uplifted flame Revealed Susanna and her shame. And then, the simpering Byzantines Fled, with a noise like tambourines. IV Beauty is momentary in the mind-- The fitful tracing of a portal; But in the flesh it is immortal. The body dies; the body's beauty lives. So evenings die, in their green going, A wave, interminably flowing. So gardens die, their meek breath scenting The cowl of winter, done repenting. So maidens die, to the auroral Celebration of a maiden's choral. Susanna's music touched the ***** strings Of those white elders; but, escaping, Left only Death's ironic scraping. Now, in its immortality, it plays On the clear viol of her memory, And makes a constant sacrament of praise.

How Poets routinely tell lies or truth with great "sincerity" and earnest projections of "poetic charisma" and lashings of "who me tell lies?". and yet they routinely avoid truthfulness, in case they forget the  power of lies and truth, in their search for fame. Mesmerised by its attendant celebrity groupmind and of course its wealth.. Indeed Poets don't want to know that truthfulness has nothing to do with truth. Indeed Poets don't want to know that truth is a lie and a lie is truth, two sides of a darkened mirror and both are equally valueless except  for  seeing false faces in.. Poets bleat on about how the shackleable object of their 'love' , she or he, are not theirs to own or categorise or monopolise. yet they keep on expecting full submission and just getting an empty back, and a disappearing set of footprints. Like the sheep and goats that Poets are, they bleat on endlessly about their wants their wants  their wants. They want fame as Poets--disguised as distribution deals. They want contracts to produce garbage for HallMark--as if.. They want **** licking critical acclaim--from **** licking critics. They want international poetry prizes from aesthetic morons-- wearing Armani suits. They want Groupies--but not ******* They want Media eulogies--but not truthfulness. Always are they deliberately forgetting that "you cant always get what you want". The last thing that Poets want is what they need most of all. They really need An end to the narcissism of those that want to be called "poet"--in your dreams. An end to the juvenile arrogance that motivates them to put up strings of meaningless associated words and vainly call them poems. An end to childish immaturity, and inchoate meandering through other peoples words and experiences, stealing others lives and characters. Always incessantly pretending that because they can read the words of others that they have also shared their experiences--indeed their experience was deeper wider higher. In another day and age of non-violent sensibility   these kind of Poets would be called thieves and liars. In this day and  age they scribble emotional garbage and pretend its "poetry"--encouraged by intellectual follies. As poets they have become walking proto cash registers. Sin Verguensa. Sin Verguensa. Sin is Spanish for without. Poets are  SIN integrity. Poets are SIN Truthfulness. Poets are SIN decency. Poets are SIN. Im so glad I could never be mistaken for a  Poet. Wouldnt want to be mistaken as a poet.

There is a boy in the library, ignoring the crazy lady talking through the window. I feel like telling him she is nice. And probably not half as crazy as the librarians in this town. She has 2 children. They live in Greece. And when she cries, her dogs hide under the deck. But he probably doesn't speak English. Hardly any of these people sitting on their backpacks at the library do. And even if he did, he wouldn't listen. He is reading. Its a good book. I know its a good book. I've read it. Now I feeling like telling him to leave. He should not read it here, underneath the colour wallpaper. He needs to find a corner of a beach, so he doesn't have to cry in public. And he has to cry, because if he doesn't, I know the crying will happen inside. And his eyes will turn a shade darker with the smoke of their deaths, and his muscles will strain to rip from his ridiculously alive tendons. His eyes are already black, and I do not think he can afford to find more darkness. Not that I would know. He might pick cherries for a living and flirt with a trailer park attendant called Fiona is his spare time. But I have a smell for the scared and enclosed people here. I can see the kracken hunters and the faerie kissers. They show themselves to me accidentally and I turn watch them destroy their dreams. People ask me why I am cold all the time. They do not understand, because the boy at the library closed the book before he could cry and I knew he would be destroyed anyway

She died a year ago, But so pathetic I wasn’t around during, Her funeral, Air would have protested against my loud dirge, There would have been series of enjambment In the stanzas of my her elegy. General Abas said she died in a ****** coup, But she was too wise to be wiped out in a coup, She was like untamed lion. Mr George gave another account, He said she died during an internal war, The war against the truth, She has been from truth, Too blind to see reality, Fast asleep to be woken up. The family doctor said she was poisoned, Poisoned with the truth, The truth that kills rather to set free. Inspector James said she was sniped From a fair perimeter. The mortuary attendant said they Heared movement, Guess she was just try to raise up. Today I arrive with nothing to feed my eye, A little bit nostalgic, I had the feeling that I belong here but not to death, So I left for the yard, at the backyard, I couldn’t belive what I saw on her gravestone, “Nigeria a country, not a nation”

Epitaph for Nigeria
Indulgent muse! my grov’ling mind inspire, And fill my ***** with celestial fire. See from Jamaica’s fervid shore she moves, Like the fair mother of the blooming loves, When from above the Goddess with her hand Fans the soft breeze, and lights upon the land; Thus she on Neptune’s wat’ry realm reclin’d Appear’d, and thus invites the ling’ring wind. “Arise, ye winds, America explore, “Waft me, ye gales, from this malignant shore; “The Northern milder climes I long to greet, “There hope that health will my arrival meet.” Soon as she spoke in my ideal view The winds assented, and the vessel flew. Madam, your spouse bereft of wife and son, In the grove’s dark recesses pours his moan; Each branch, wide-spreading to the ambient sky, Forgets its verdure, and submits to die. From thence I turn, and leave the sultry plain, And swift pursue thy passage o’er the main: The ship arrives before the fav’ring wind, And makes the Philadelphian port assign’d, Thence I attend you to Bostonia’s arms, Where gen’rous friendship ev’ry ***** warms: Thrice welcome here! may health revive again, Bloom on thy cheek, and bound in ev’ry vein! Then back return to gladden ev’ry heart, And give your spouse his soul’s far dearer part, Receiv’d again with what a sweet surprise, The tear in transport starting from his eyes! While his attendant son with blooming grace Springs to his father’s ever dear embrace. With shouts of joy Jamaica’s rocks resound, With shouts of joy the country rings around.

To A Lady On Her Coming To North-America With Her Son, For The Recovery Of Her Health
Indulgent muse! my grov’ling mind inspire, And fill my ***** with celestial fire.

Madam, your spouse bereft of wife and son, In the grove’s dark recesses pours his moan; Each branch, wide-spreading to the ambient sky, Forgets its verdure, and submits to die.

High beyond the thick wall a tower shines with sunset Where peach and plum are blooming and the willowcotton flies. You have heard in your office the court-bell of twilight; Birds find perches, officials head for home. Your morning-jade will ****** as you thread the golden palace; You will bring the word of Heaven from the closing gates at night. And I should serve there with you; but being full of years, I have taken off official robes and am resting from my troubles.

Harmonizing a Poem, (beside Palace Attendant Guo.)
Movie ticket, cinema stub, two halves torn apart by the fickle fingers of the screen attendant: he looked up at me with a smile- one learnt from a handbook compiled by the words of some corporate type, who dislikes his job, you can tell from his vibe. “The receipt's in the bag”, I requested it to be in my hand, customer service fingers are always painted a day-glow green, hideous talons of the fake queen, traced from the princesses of the TV-silver-shitty-fake-TV screen: she looked up at me with a smile- one learnt from a magazine of ink, nothing more than lies disguised within the wholesome typography imprint. Carrying nothing but a wallet, “would you like a bag sir?” I am carrying nothing but a wallet, of course I would like a bag, what do you take me for: she looked up at me with a smile- Wait. Her intriguing trapdoor smile concealed perfectly straight teeth that, through the gap in her mouth, spat out the shop floor script, as if a Shakespearean soliloquy equipped for the stage, not this retail trade.

MOVIE TICKET, CINEMA STUB
The front page news hit home! Thirteen dead in a gambling pen... A dead bell hounds those rain soaked back streets bullits smash soot blind windows and the smell of blood makes you sick... White light of the camera eye spinning red  globes An attendant shacks his head"How do you rationalize this mess" "Just bag up the rest" A child whimpers. "Hush, Little flower, it is just death's long shadow way down in Chinatown."

Chinatown massacre...
From Chicago to Atlanta on the 5:45 I contemplate the fragility of being alive I sit on the wing with a view of great breadth While I dream about life and wonder of death The sun has just set, the moon kisses the sky And the atmosphere echoes its exhaling sigh As darkness sets in, the graduation emerges So I, in the sky, view its majesty in surges The window is a frame of the moon as a crescent And I spot a town way down, like a queen to her peasant There is life, there is motion, there is somewhere to be There is conflict, there are problems, and then there is me I snap out of passivity like a casual thought To locate the flight attendant complementary cart Since her mobile vending machine is a couple rows down I return to pensivity and stare at the ground The tail lights of cars pulse when my true focus starts As if they were red blood cells exiting the heart There is a conversation I over hear from 27 E The girl has dreams of studying alone in Italy The man has a daughter and he rocks in his seat They talk like old friends even though they just meet There are young men in the Navy, and business folks There is an air of community, peanuts, and hope As my ears pop constantly and we climb higher I think of my future and to what I aspire And I wonder if there's anyone I'll see here again Close and far away strangers, a view from a plane

There's a rainbow in the corner of my window it must be saying something. The clouds are gay! The lakes are gay! The trees are gay! The airplane is gay! The flight attendant is gay! Houses hidden in the hills below look up and wonder if I'm gay too. The sun hiding at the edge of a cloud tells me the ocean's gay didn't we know? She has a fluid sexuality and loses her temper sometimes we call it flooding. The sky declared itself androgynous and changes genders every twelve hours. The sunset is proudly bisexual and displays both pink and blue every evening as it heads to the club and the sky switches genders. The city of San Francisco is gay! and the rainbow disappears.

Now there is a thing called "left and right side brain" dominance Left side being an organized filter of OCD, And the right side being very scattered and street smart But I am 100% completely 50% of each side of the brain exactly with certain times in my life I am very OCD hence the perfect placement of the bubble open the sheet of bubble rap But with life, I want to be an event planner, lawyer, book writer, airplane attendant, anything special hence the way this bubble wrap has many uses I do take it as my purpose in life to protect and care for others So throw me around, put me in a box, step on me, wether im here for your amusement or for comforting reasons, I'll take great pride in being used by you For that is how my anxiety has consumed me I. Am. Bubble wrap.

I am bubblewrap P.3
The time of year has grown indifferent. Mildew of summer and the deepening snow Are both alike in the routine I know: I am too dumbly in my being pent. The wind attendant on the solstices Blows on the shutters of the metropoles, Stirring no poet in his sleep, and tolls The grand ideas of the villages. The malady of the quotidian . . . Perhaps if summer ever came to rest And lengthened, deepened, comforted, caressed Through days like oceans in obsidian Horizons, full of night's midsummer blaze; Perhaps, if winter once could penetrate Through all its purples to the final slate, Persisting bleakly in an icy haze; One might in turn become less diffident, Out of such mildew plucking neater mould And spouting new orations of the cold. One might. One might. But time will not relent.

The Man Whose Pharynx Was Bad
"For I am he that sways in multitudes, The Ur-reader believing faithfully; With words beneath my starry fingernails, And arms attendant to the mescaline sky. Forced blue and always empty to the face, Blue hands against the million-houred nights. Not blue by name but in a walking breath Beneath the curse and cry of glinting day. But praying's pointless anyway now that The Seven Hands that turn the Sky have moved; And walking with the moon can't turn me on, Because I end up doing all the work." There's not a ********* thing that you can do When all the forest's trying to keep you still.

I hear the clock pendulum swing, your heart stings and I feel my stomach in my throat. I was your best friend, you were my homie, the walls of trust are crumbling, how do I cope? “There’s no excuse!” I say, but of course, you know. You know I wish that I could take it back and I wish you would look back. You can’t, your plane is boarding, You’re leaving. “This is the final boarding call for Flight 1089.” says the gate attendant. You open your phone, find my name and begin to write me a text, you pause, you stop your habit. It’s time for something new. We’ve tried our time has come and gone. I’m looking at my phone, praying for a text. It never comes, it’s late, I turn on the shower. The past is forever in eternity, but I’m scrubbing my body as if I can wash it all away, as If I can be clean of the past. Free from it. But the memory is fresh and a fresh canvas is best.

A Betrayal, Soap & A Plane Ticket
My noise, or music (I don’t know which is which) But it tries to escape, And is broadcast, nightly Over flat roofs and chimneys Along fog choked alleys, Through city streets Till caught in its own limit It’s consumed, and strewn, Over an iron bridge Down to the river To become another corpse. ———————————————————— It could be me, Along with my dream, Blown up in a river. It could be me, face down Listening to the city; Trying to perceive Through the noise Of shuddering trains And the bereft sirens, Wailing for the lost. It could be me Trying to perceive Underneath music The underneath voice that says 'You have to drown to hear me, You must be, baptised in silence' ———————————————————— I knew his father once (the Baptist’s) And I believed in him Like some comic-book hero, I believed in his powers. And now, in this city I can only believe in ghosts Ghosts found wandering Among attendant chords Carried at night Across the city lights Playing on a empty swing Under afternoon sun And in lingering mists of dawn That pearl the ground. I’ve felt that ghost Near the wood at twilight And in a foxes stare And a strangers smile. ———————————————————— But feeling ain’t believing, So Sunday mornings are spent For better or worse, In pursuits and hot-heeled chases, Of spent thoughts and sorry dreams That try to stem the tide That try to forget the plea, to join the rats, And to see the sea. ———————————————————— But, almost accidentally I still always find music, In a hush of wind, or in swirling leaves As my head breaks through roaring waves. Contemplation makes the music clearer Revealing the divinity of expression. Revealing the label-less ghost, with a comic-book name; ‘The Unseen Hand’ which plays Throughout the night in days And is heard when yearned for. And it will not die, for it has never lived, Apart from the mind.

Oh I'm going to Japan All according to plan Trapped in this little plane Going a little insane Staring out the window Seeing the wind blow The clouds look odd And I'm a little awed Miles above the ground And there's not a sound Save that one snoring man That screaming child, whose name I gather is Stan And that one obsessive compulsive flight attendant Who I think is dependent On those little pink pills that keep appearing in her hand But its fine, its alright, I'm going to Japan. Land of the rising sun Here I come, even if I'm the only one Getting off this accursed sardine can. At least I'll be arrested in Japan.
