"effusions" poems
Away with your fictions of flimsy romance,
Those tissues of falsehood which Folly has wove;
Give me the mild beam of the soul-breathing glance,
Or the rapture which dwells on the first kiss of love.
Ye rhymers, whose bosoms with fantasy glow,
Whose pastoral passions are made for the grove;
From what blest inspiration your sonnets would flow,
Could you ever have tasted the first kiss of love.
If Apollo should e’er his assistance refuse,
Or the Nine be dispos’d from your service to rove,
Invoke them no more, bid adieu to the Muse,
And try the effect, of the first kiss of love.
I hate you, ye cold compositions of art,
Though prudes may condemn me, and bigots reprove;
I court the effusions that spring from the heart,
Which throbs, with delight, to the first kiss of love.
Your shepherds, your flocks, those fantastical themes,
Perhaps may amuse, yet they never can move:
Arcadia displays but a region of dreams;
What are visions like these, to the first kiss of love?
Oh! cease to affirm that man, since his birth,
From Adam, till now, has with wretchedness strove;
Some portion of Paradise still is on earth,
And Eden revives, in the first kiss of love.
When age chills the blood, when our pleasures are past—
For years fleet away with the wings of the dove—
The dearest remembrance will still be the last,
Our sweetest memorial, the first kiss of love.

Chrismal Skies
Delicate beauty christening our innate senses
Sweetest effusions dancing with mother’s perfume
Across this dew kissed sacred morning
Thunderous echoes announce your chrismal skies
Where winter’s kiss beckons to quietly slumber
Your beatific bouquets fragrantly arrive…

Emergent and forming I feel a storm is imploring that soon without any warning you beg to cross a line
Every time, nothing is sacred but sacramental complacence is marked as roles of the shameless
Mean to skip a line another time? Is this too rough and obtuse for a cutie like you to boost the power line?
Number 9, completion is power and stricken chords every hour proceed to timeline devour those daily entities
I do decree that opposition to me is free and withered beatings to meetings, detours and dealings
understanding demands of variable plans is held by the hand that feeds the depleted need
I see it from every angle, the tangle, the multishifted frame though it dangles, I can't be stuck in my own head when
I see the reflections of me in the treasure it jangles, brings into focus where my head fell to float in the
moments set to wrangle, pull it in, dwell upon the good and discard where it hampers new fangled notions like
truth effusions of love and devotion are swallowed up in the daily ocean of noise traffic, the more verbose,
Graphic dispatches matches blasted disasters dashed and rash past distractions amass magic attacks balanced
Secular motion entwined with metaphysical potions, divided what is your quotient? It doesn't add up in this
moment.
Interpersonal, intergalactic, universal assertions disturbed by verbage of outrance
Message mismanaged mischief mallaeble mayhem managed maganamously mallicous mannered when I
would proclaim them. Members materialized meriting masturbatory movements and monetized
malappropriation I have no patience nor pathos for indiscriminant egos demonstrating a tangent as canon and
paralyzing progressions toward psychic visions of heaven, eyes as the cosmos, and pressures upended.
I'll cope with associations disastrous and tainted, but keep in my visage all that scratches my lenses
I know far too much to be content with the situation, but far too little to shatter falsehood's intitiation

With the piquant poignancy of lurid allusion
I create a dynamically progressive matrix of collusion
Whose apex crux axis is beyond finite solution
And the endergonicaly adhesive pragmatics imbue a cohesively coercive illusion
For the inveterate hypotaxis of livid elusions
I portray a protensive conjunction of latent confusions
Whose effervescent effluence is vagile laconic effusions
And the sardonic impending preponderance conveys sabbat consortium delusions
From the endemic puissance of eclectic synectics
I derive a dialectically semantic sorcery of syntactics
Whose apothegm aphorisms are levity terse synaptics
And the lucidly collusive illuminism educes the aesthetics of geomancy's fatidic
Through the viable salience of kithe’s intrinsics
I exude a portentous pervasion acuity of linguistics
Whose apomixis anabolics are irrefragably felicitous orotund acoustics
And the aural auspice austerities infer axioms of manumission’s eidetics
By the hypercritical mitigations of anachronistic sociology
I purvey rampart ransack oblations of epistemology
Whose azure opulence articulations are futurity ostensive ontology
And the evolutional ontogeny metamorphisms incur a homogeny epiphany deontology

Dearest of thousands, now the time draws near
That with my lines my life must full-stop here.
Cut off thy hairs, and let thy tears be shed
Over my turf when I am buried.
Then for effusions, let none wanting be,
Or other rites that do belong to me;
As love shall help thee, when thou do’st go hence
Unto thy everlasting residence.

Streetlamp's effusions,
uncaring,
rain down on
milky flesh clad in
shapeless polyester
and pockmarked asphalt
under abstruse night,
with unfaltering
honesty
like the nonsense soliloquies of drunken idiots.
"thank you,"
I offer.
"Just doing my job."

To think of you- love,
is to invoke a hurricane of passion-
that sweeps my sanity,
that bristles my lust,
spinning me my soporific life,
in a torrential effusions that electrify my entire body.
To think of you,
is wilt away the discretion,
to lose all control,
and
run towards your cyclones,
that excite me,
that roar at me,
and,
renders me languid,
Yes, that’s how it is when I think of you.
Is to feel strong gusts of desire,
which destabilize the gable of my prudence,
that enchant my mindfulness,
that plummets modesty,
that drags me to your ardor,
and
I plunges me, in the bursts of your passion.
To think of you-my love
is having to move my imagination,
due to the discernable trail,
that my trembling body leaves as evidence,
in my immaculate snowy sheets.

Tu
(mi huracán de pasión)
Pensarte amor,
es invocar un huracán de pasiones--
que me arrasa la cordura,
que me eriza la lujuria,
que me gira mis soporífera vida,
en una lluvia torrencial de efusiones
que electrifican mi cuerpo entero.
Pensarte,
es sudar la vergüenza,
perder los estribos,
de querer tras tus ciclones,
que me alelan,
que me excitan,
que me gritan,
que me bajan y me suben.
Si, así, es pensarte.
es sentir fuertes marejadas en mi centro,
que desestabilizan el techo de mi prudencia,
que me hechizan la conciencia,
que empinan el pudor,
que me arrastran a tu ardor,
y
me funden en la ráfagas de tu pasión.
Pensarte,
es tener que mudar mi imaginación,
por los visibles daños,
que deja mi tembloroso cuerpo como prueba
en mis inmaculadas sábanas.

I know your type
One to elect an early exit
Deep into the cut
Scenic thru ways
Treacherous spontaneously carving angles, with no slow postings
Strung souls festooned to a hysterical spindle; spun
I swear
I have seen those trees before
It all looks so similar
There's no way to tell
Meaningless miles
Traversing the whorls of our finger prints
Our effusions tinging the tints of passing time
Haggred laggard orbs
In phlegmatic succession
As one submerges the other is cresting
Straining our necks and crossing our eyes
Lusting to examin the splendor of both at the same time
I found soothing solace in the prospect
Simplistic predictability; perpetual motion machine
A one gear design
Head long; forever forward
Hindrances observed
Obstructions obliterated
Cleaved into splinters
Tumbling endlessly into infinity
Towards the edge of the earth
Vaulting the crimped lip of the terraformed tortoise shell
Slowly slipping through the imaginary grasp of gravity
Into the void
No longer victim to vertigo
Orientation Utopia
Up, down, left, and right
Weightless figments
Photo negatives of a childhood home
