• will you take me into your space...•cradle me upon       the sultry limbs      of your        nebulous grace•the expansive arms of the universe, where            peaceful slumber awaits•your poetry    laden comets, bore      abundant love, all towed     in freights• gingerly drinking in the depth of your face•seemingly blindfolded, i'll tread each dark  crater•my head in a swirl        of your  majestic         trace• where        I would stumble         upon V              a love ever so...             V /     |    |   || \ (                              ) (   INTERSTELLAR   ) (                                    )

Interstellar
-- about th'only way to describe the noisy human highway of rue saint catherine. today (march 15th -- 9:22 AM) it is full of hurried to'ing & fro'ing of general populace. myriad hums of conversation. honking. shouts. ringing -- mixed w/belching of big trucks (freights) rollin' along rises up 5 floors and washes over me like a wave while out on the balcony christening the new season with a fresh pack hacking a little (ah that crisp smoky air of dying winter!) for all the ants to hear while the mists rise & ride & rise.

bustling
The address of a melon. Table hopping water, never happy enough with it's last meal, especially after five hours. San Antonio freights full of fire pokers ashamed of how much salt they put on the skillet. it's just jello, I say, you can never have too much salt I shudder at mystic growls. Howling through eyes. Did I meet you there, or was that just another imagining? Straight back and waiting. Middle finger thumping, my feet just tapping. I sit in a two days wait, a moment passing. In the sudden it peaks, it is gone.

Muttering Freights
Don't get me wrong or let the wrong picture be painted There is plenty in this mad day and night world to be romantic about But the total collection of my generation gets too romantic to me This generation isn't even how I pictured it What happened to the rucksack revolution The Gary Snyder dharma bums criss crossing the United States with thumbs outstretched, hoping freights and carrying their whole lives on their backs That is something I get romantic about Was it really that hard? Or was it simply easier to stay at home to watch daytime television or evening television or whenever the hell you watch television I admit I watch television too And it's certainly no means to an end But there is gotta be more to this crazy life than that I don't feel romantic like my generation does My generation rarely feels romantic about jazz Jazz is some of the most unapologetic music I can stomach You will never hear a jazz song that doesn't breathe into your soul I am getting tired of your romantics I am tired of feeling like I have to live my life by pouring deep love emotions from the well of my heart into another human heart Half the time I want to love the whole world The other half I want the world to leave me to sit and sulk in peace If you want, ask the two that I've dated One may not remember but ask anyway Ask them if I was ever romantic Ask them what it looked like Ask them how it felt Understand that I am the great black sheep of romantic expression Understand that there is hope even when there isn't romance Understand that there is hope in every beat of our silly human hearts and every flicker of an eyelid and finally understand that even if someone says they don't feel romantic about one thing or the next, understand that doesn't mean that they don't feel love Love and romance are all just silly words we give to what goes on deep down inside where we can never see but can always feel

Hope Without Romantics

○ _I go in_circles for the clock is in twelve Abusing the moments Yea! my time pendant Thus,restraining your blemish the prudence to blot ○ The sweet sweet lullabies, and the soothing words in shelves Keep echoing my heart,how susceptible its to the rots I made you my queen so you took me for a treasured-peasant ○ You plagued me your freights And left me in the dark,passions drunk in passions,its was all lust When I fell flat to your vintage-wine dust So day after day,and night after night,you rouse me to blate The thousand tempest tears That noveled the stories the wretch fear-ed But,though I'm lost in lust, and of no home You mean everything to me,so I shall still search,for you,my throne ○Untitled○ ○Historian E●Lexano○ It's a sonnet...14 lines Divided into six lines○sextave And 8 lines ○octave

*Untitled*
Late in the dark night, with the stars a-light, away from the freights of everyday life, I pretend I might be with you tonight. F'only you could see the reason I recede. Please understand me. I internally struggle to out speak. Know why this must be. My soul is tortured. Now as I muster strength to not falter. But I much rather be here together and love forever. Late in the dark night, with the stars a-light, away from the freights of everyday life, I pretend you might fall for me tonight.

Late in the dark night
An umbilical cord Grown from my backbone To assure a structure, a stronghold In humanity's songs Holds me from eternal darkness To halt me from expanding nothingness Yet to sight the stars' brightness Their uniqueness It holds me from behind Makes sure I don't fall in line The darkness amongst light The foul upon the stars The empathy of an everlasting night To keep me from an unimaginable fright Away from gaze of awful heights Never ending falls, suspensionary freights A body full of thoughts Hollow mind cuts out draughts Only if time could be stopped I'll build an horloge in my head's clock Steer me to a fantasy Hold me for an eternity Back down for a better me I try to keep my sanity For him Me The better me The almost me That could do better than I could think Better than I would think That would act at the thoughts to blink Probably I shouldn't blink Rehearse my fidelity Work on my infidelity A plane to eternity For an end to a better me An umbilical cord That strucks my bones Hard as a stone I think it's trying to make me whole Or to erase me To think like everything So I could become a sibling To this cloned society To accept the poverty To fall for the beverages To hold accountable the rich and the wealthy For all problems that comes to think My head is its own place Not an ordinary place A fantasy type of heaven place Where only I belong place The umbilical cord can't reach My thoughts, mind, how I think But it reacts Every time I blink That I may act like everyone I see

Umbilical cord
An umbilical cord Grown from my backbone To assure a structure, a stronghold In humanity's songs Holds me from eternal darkness To halt me from expanding nothingness Yet to sight the stars' brightness Their uniqueness It holds me from behind Makes sure I don't fall in line The darkness amongst light The foul upon the stars The empathy of an everlasting night To keep me from an unimaginable fright Away from gaze of awful heights Never ending falls, suspensionary freights A body full of thoughts Hollow mind cuts out draughts Only if time could be stopped I'll build an horloge in my head's clock Steer me to a fantasy Hold me for an eternity Back down for a better me I try to keep my sanity For him Me The better me The almost me That could do better than I could think Better than I would think That would act at the thoughts to blink Probably I shouldn't blink Rehearse my fidelity Work on my infidelity A plane to eternity For an end to a better me An umbilical cord That strucks my bones Hard as a stone I think it's trying to make me whole Or to erase me To think like everything So I could become a sibling To this cloned society To accept the poverty To fall for the beverages To hold accountable the rich and the wealthy For all problems that comes to think My head is its own place Not an ordinary place A fantasy type of heaven place Where only I belong place The umbilical cord can't reach My thoughts, mind, how I think But it reacts Every time I blink That I may act like everyone I see
