"memoryless" poems
i.
unfiltered asiatic plaything seeks
hypoactive cradle technocrat
evicting meaningful poach,
mendacious transcripts of
past events found in his
memoryless playhouse.
poplar crowd scribbles observations
outbound punch of laughter
sighs to the scrambled, ethnic
postgrad nation.
microfiche telegram exploits
meaning to deeper courtesies
current surrendered upon
entry.
ii.
psychotropic sustenance
fizz thru ***** vein corridor
secret mission lifestyle
learning fast in enormous packs of
tiny lies.
spew logic chagrin mediated
bloodstain; cerebus twitching
outside of beingself.
iii.
heart ceases,
sacred whitepaint moans.
o infidel,
strike thrice; a chord
binding us- nasty, *****
beads bleeding rich.
cloaked bushes tasting,
hisses cured human oaks;
tapered horns that sob,
casting waved heels.
iv.
dawn fallen, only concrete
possible now. separated by
thousands of what is not,
shocks disintricate; undwindling
patriots mailing lessness,
laughter sounds fetching
offband pitch.

I reduce myself to ashes of your essence,
beautifying those wild streams from yesterday,
trails from the epicenter of an eternal fury.
Only if the needle stopped, only if the Universe died for you to live.
Covered with the bittersweet cloak of what is bearable,
Flooded with foam from an endless rage of loneliness.
Delicate hypocrisy, fooling us intermittently
never giving up on the anodyne torment.
In a sovereign sway,
who rules our lives with mild-mannered dourness,
we sneak scaling amongst scarlet scales,
flying towards the impossible,
dreaming of a gaze from memoryless constellations,
crystal metamorphosis bursting inside you.
Lacking apparent moulding,
trusting your smile,
rushing into a leap of faith,
and laughing, absorbed by dazzling darkness,
we look at each other blindly
seizing the infinite.

Clingering pain
Wrappering blame
Failanguishing again
In this memoryless game
Testful domain
Obstahazards the same
Channel it Jane

Indecision-
It has plagued me for near two decades;
And then, with frivolous concerns.
Which restaurant?
Which color?
What matter?
It doesn't.
It didn't.
And now
Now I am presented with this;
Preserve memory?
Or preserve perseverance?
Many will scoff,
'What use is memory without perseverance?'
Yet what is the point of persevering
Sans memories?
Over the years I've been stripped
Of hopes
Of dreams
Of the very life force that doesn't exist.
Throughout all things,
I've retained my memories.
I am the memories I keep.
My whole being balances for
the songs we sang
the people I've known
the stories I've heard
and the trials I've thrown.
Subtract these and you are left with an emptied carcass
A hollowed branch or
Dry-rotted root;
Others may see their past glory
But the carcass
The branch
The root
Are nothing more that memories
And what are memories
To the memoryless?

its that awful feeling of waking up
blindfold off and lights that shine too bright
memories come in a flash
sickness comes in waves
closed eyes, counting breaths
bad tasting breaths
truth screams shrill and harsh
face scrunched in confusion
hands in fists fighting for memory
too awake but longing for sleep
emotions dulled, colors bright
remembering the beautiful day
longing for a memoryless night
