"surgical" poems
You say doctors will make the best poets. They will search your emotions by the skin; cutting open to reveal and revel with surgical precison. They will play with heavy drugs and blades-- nothing shall hide beneath the armors of bone and muscle. They know the anatomy of the heart too well. They will find the things you have hidden in your chest. I say doctors will never be poets. They are too mechanical, too fast with their edges and ridges. They cannot see the pain as pain but merely as an anomaly. That sadness is black bile not melancholia. They cannot sing to you but only clammer in medical jargon. Poets will use their imperfect words, and perfect rhymes to find the secrets of your rib cage with ease. They will find every flaw of your broken body and make it the best story you've never heard. Doctors, they will put love to define as a momentary rush of adrenaline, an arrythmia for another human caused due to an imbalance of the heart rhythm. Poets will tell you that love is the first jolt of life for them. They will say love is a state of euphoria that takes those irregular rhythms to perfect symphonies. Doctors say that veins carry blood devout of oxygen. I say that they carry your broken emotions to their feelings factory to mend it within its beautiful catacombs. All those doctors will find and fix you with perfect solutions. And these poets will do their best to be your perfect solution.

Doctors
With surgical precision You perfected the incision Of that poison-tipped tongue, Like a dart. My crippling indecision Was slashed with cold derision, Till self-belief was wrung From my heart.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This is not a poem.  This is about a poem. Poems require words.  This poem does not require words. This poem requires memories' muscles. This poem requires what is called colloquially love. Learn that what we share here is not poetry. Your poetic senses that produce the words that mark you present are but surgical tools to extract, release the whole and the parts of you that help shape that single sense borning in your chest that defines you at any particular moment. Quæ est mater Laureat. She is the Mother Laureate. She is the boundary you must learn to cross to be more than a re-arranger of letters and alphabets, but a translator of the human essence and fill our veins with the a sense of awe and wonder felt when we read each other and think aloud, "yes, exactly, that was and is precisely what I was feeling." She is the glue that keeps us sticking here, sticking together, each of us sticking to it.   You do not know her?   No worries, she will find you when you least expect it, perhaps when you need it. This is not a poem.  This is a human who's a poem. Understand the difference and then you may begin a journey that has no destination other than weaving the connective tissue that makes us anticipating excited when we log on. Happy Birthday Mother Poet Laureate! I do not think I can write a better not poem for you.   Forgive me then, if going toward, I repost this every October 24th as long as the chemical composition of blood, God, spirit, logos or reason runs free within,   exiting as words encased in tears that formulate into human poetry. nattyman P.S.There are 800 poems here with Sally in the title, and least 700  are about Sally B.   If you like, please  feel to free to add yours, old or new.

¤¤¤ I've had dreams by day That brought the nightmares back. In the daylights exposure it was dark   When the negative light was bright. In the sea of people I was the floating remains Of a Great White's meal.  On the lonely roads of thought My mind was in gridlock. Comforting memories were suspended Over a psychic black hole By jagged and rusted Medieval-type surgical tools. My remaining senses Were nailed to a cross-section Of psychically atrophied grey matter Along neural pathways Guarded by gladiator-type tormentors. Left with nothing But the stinging desire to be freed From a curse that had to be cured And the hell of searching for a cure When I was convinced there wasn’t one. The powers that be come with force To quell primal lusts & desires Forbidding you of them As they seductively Dangle them before your eyes    Until you are so frustrated and unfulfilled That you no longer Care for your world.   This cracked glass remains empty Even though it is constantly being filled Then spilled or leaked on the floor Until you learn to lap it up Like the lapdog that you have become For their amusement. You remain with a love for freedom   But your cage is so large  That you think you are free Lost in societal fantasy. You think for a while That these fantasies are real    Until you come to your senses that aren’t As you join other fools In comfort that you're not the only Broken-back pack-mule.  But in spite of it all And in the face of them all Don't let these birds of prey                                                           And powers that be Deprive you of what they cannot see In that hidden corner Of what is still untouched-- The real you Uninfected by the world.   Take care of your spiritual affairs. Don't let the global beast And your primal hissing forces Make you be your own pallbearer.

people **** people with nothing but fingers and hair and their very heavy breath. their breath like a crow beak before crucifixes of straw. like a tightening banishment of a lung. remember when we would blow it onto our car window and create that consistent mirth of fog to begin in? the bodies riddled with bullets that flank the highway are no such thing. the schoolchildren lying face down in the corner of the closet are no such thing. they are just winter coats with schoolchildren to fill them for the time being. no amputation of what’s mine will aid them into the grave. no mass communication grief. so why would you call it a mass grave when in truth it was just a pit i dug to fill with crowds of people who died under the pretense that they had previously done so, that nothing was new under the sun. and when people **** people like people do with their instruments as ways of extending themselves into the world and into the marrow of our body obliterating organs of people with their stretching of the muscular rib, shoulder. one eye closes firmly. it’s nothing but a hand gun as if to say a hand eats the gun and makes it whole. as if to say the reinforced metal door exit plan for people who are being killed by other people clicked shut and locked 15,000 years ago and i can’t quit slamming what’s left of me into it. your kid is very dead. but then again so is mine. suppose they killed each other. suppose they both made the mistake of dragging their small, stupid bodies through the trajectory of another body in the first place. in the chip aisle of a gas station maybe. in theaters this christmas. in the midst of a good song that began playing on the lobby radio just a minute before, oh yeah before, things really got going. i saw people killing people on television the other day with their whole bodies, devouring themselves like surgical gloves slick with oiled consumption and bleeding out and i could do nothing. some kids died just because and they told me so and i was told nothing could ever help them because they were just people and they were dying. “breaking news” ended up just being people again. in those moments, i was eating breakfast. our houses were very quiet and needed me in all of them, grandfather clock over CNN, clarifying what has already been committed and committed again. the cipher was others lost blood.

I’m sorry I was devouring you with my eyes your liturgical eighty-eight your curves and robes raising my alter to this pinnacle of worship something holy to take slowly into my body love, I wished sibling love not to be mistaken for religion for surgical jazz for something else love, sister and my promise— I won’t go to the pyre without you

admiring your shadow
The urgent care is the nursery Where I choose my seeds with thought. The doctor is the gardener Who knows how to fix what I’ve wrought. She sows the seeds inside my skin, Yet not with a trowel or *** She uses a needle and surgical thread, With budding knots lined up in a row. Then she leaves me with my tidy ground And some knowledge on how I should care For the lined up plot she’s left to me, Whose potential I’m required to bear. The deep rivet I slashed into my skin Is where the seedlings take root. The blood from my veins keeps them moist As the new blossoms stand resolute. But when the weather grows dark and dreary, My sprouts need cover from the cold. So I bundle them up with jeans and sweats To protect them and let them take hold. But despite the layers I pile atop, The small spiny blooms poke through. I run my fingers back and forth, And marvel at how fast they grew. Then after they’ve grown for fourteen days, I return to the nursery at last. The gardener plucks and prunes and picks ‘Til the wounds and the blooms come to pass. So now the perennials have passed us by, And the sprouts have been taken to bin. The wound that watered my seedlings’ through, Has left but a scar on my skin.

http://m.wikihow.com/Unhook-a-Bra Pinch the eyelets but oh so gently, To properly unhook the device to safely release paradise From it's containment chamber. This be one of many secrets to unlocking The mechanism that holds some of the happy things The human body artist conceived To perpetuate the Species. According to the internet, To extract joy to the world correctly, Depends upon both your station and your Positioning. Thus, it helps to have GPS, Which most men think is that pointy thing Between their legs, But is not. Given the laws of gravity, And other natural limitations, Sadly that utensil of little avail In this surgical operation. If one desires to release the tension Between the connectors of the protectors, Guardians of her heart, It will be necessary to Let your fingers do the walking. So cut and paste the title above, In your web browser place! Do your homework or risk feeling As petite as a schnauzer. Seems your natural tendency, Righty or lefty, matters in this endeavor, Of which I was unawares, oft pressing the incorrect lever. This, the likely cause of my spectacular Teenage Fumblings and failures. Had I known that fact, In the days before the Internet, Surely I would have brought along my Catchers mitt To step up my game. Sage advice the article provides: *Get a bra, and practice, practice, practice!

Your shrill, yet oddly pleasant sound, echoes loudly down the long corridor. I try to ignore you as the jaunty sound clashes with my melancholy mood, Yet I find the notes and melodies cling to my mind like tissue stuck to a shoe, Hanging on for it's own amusement, Ignorant of my desire not to be teased nor humoured at this anxious time. I feel I shouldn't like your racket, My naïve ears and young years sense, not only an inappropriate comedy in your sound, But also a daunting undertone, Adding to my sense of having been plunged into deep icy waters. Perhaps your music soothes those who are leaving, Your high happy notes providing optimism and assurance of recovery, Or of a restful sleep enveloping dear ones. For me, however, at the point of no-return in my pilgrimage, I hear only the low notes, Out of time with my quickened pulse, And lending a foreboding soundtrack to my slow deliberate steps. But you play for no pay, Busking in this hospital, Doing good both night and day. Yes, you are well known in this place, Admired for the hours you commit to this space where lives can hang in the balance, And where your instrument by day is a sharp sleek scalpel, Invasive in its desire to alleviate suffering, Your steady, practiced hand rehearsed and well versed in the methodically planned procedure of a surgical concerto. But out of hours your instrument of choice lends you a voice, Allowing flourishes and improvisations. But were you aware that for visitors like me who visited repeatedly, The clarinet would take on a significance beyond other instruments, Taking me instantly back to bittersweet memories of visiting my family, As, in turn, they aged and became unwell and recovered and became unwell again. Now I am older and a little wiser, I reflect and ruminate on this period; My memories of family are more than just hospital visits, And I wonder if I could ask one thing of you? Why no Rhapsody in Blue?!

In the time between the worlds feuds A mighty crash left our country subdued Infertility plagued the land While everyone put out their hungry hand. People so fragile, plunged to their death Not even taking a second to hold their breath Women were forced to give up inside life Turning to coat hangers, instead of surgical knifes. While many men turned to a homemade noose To be found in a closet by those they would lose. Thursday became known as a blackened date As a reminder of countries’ terrible fate.

The Great Depression
The deep sighs of fall send chills across the daisies. My compass is sick and there’s a sense of urgency in my eyelashes, feeling around for the blisters on my skin searching for a bed to sleep. Facets of sleep encourage the rain to fall, cold weather raising capillaries under my skin. I wrote the history of the Holocene era on daisies, microscope lenses tickling my eyelashes; dim lighting makes me home sick. My mind is sick, I dream of oceans in my sleep, medicine labels printed on my eyelashes pill bottles coloured like fall. Tattoos of purple fringed daisies cover my shoulders like skin. Teeth full of apple skin; asking God how not to be sick, wondering if a sacrifice of daisies will get my blood to sleep. My hair is like the leaves during fall; I hope I get to keep my eyelashes. There’s snow in my eyelashes, landscapes of frost form on skin the cold air begins to fall, I decide to call in sick preferring to hide in a hot sleep until my breaths sprout purple daisies. How to grow Gerber daisies, without losing my eyelashes? My fingernails are full of sleep, hot tea grasps at my paper skin. The panacea for the sick is a perfect concentration of wool sweaters and fall. You eat daisies in the fever of fall. Through my eyelashes I am morally sick, but yesterday I finally let sleep settle into my skin.

She may be our metronome mother But when was rhythm first discovered? Did ancient nomads hear it in the sounds of walking? Did they like how it sounded over them talking? Did they view the melody As a felony? And start to sway their hips To the crack of whips? Maybe that wasn't good enough Maybe we needed more stuff So we started crossing swords To create more violent chords That interested us more Violence has a catchy hook That can't be found in a book But started with a ***** look Until our brain begins to cook And we learn to love the beat As the harmony depletes We take concert seats At a darkness feast There's an iambic pentameter In the middle eastern theater That sounds all too familiar The troubling treble Of mothers screaming While superpowers meddle And innocence is leaving The reaper is reaping To a situation heating Empathy fleeting Fascist seating Rhythm beating Our soundproof homes Create acoustic cones That our cries can't escape Taking the container's shape Filling our mind Until we're blind And only see political teams Instead of childhood dreams We fall into a rhythm Based on deadly decisions With lethal precision Like surgical incisions That don't make us healthy But support the wealthy Who whistle a different tune That will **** us all soon And as the world crumbles Their bellies still rumble Creating a disruptive bass Their music we must face With an impossible grace Or else we'll be replaced I hear instruments of percussion Causing concussions Deflecting discussions Making us harmfully dance So we'll have a fair chance Which seems wrong at first glance But it's actually a pragmatic trance Provided by Mister Rhythm Who carries misery with him

The modern robots are all dead -- the metal ones rusted, the human ones bled. For courtesy's sake, we'll call it square -- A voicemail's ghost in a tentative field. Manner's are infants' wails hung out to dry -- a starving microphone with tubes pinched shut. A scared off circuit in surgical riptides -- Our favorite pastime alive on the screen.

Bottomed-Out Technology
Your voice is electricity that shoots through my ears and down my veins like Frankenstein's Monster. Reanimating the dead cells and tissue with surgical precision. Arcing across my back and shoulders singeing hair follicles and chattering decrepit teeth in my mouth like dice in a cup. Your voice is electricity and it's clinging to my chest like a defibrillator, sending shockwave after shockwave through my heart and soul.

Your voice is electricity
I was born in a cold land, The leaves bright orange like the sun And a dusting of icy dew on wilted grass; I was born in sanitary white and surgical blues, Incubated, saved, isolated; Mamá cried: In the motherland, mi Apá would’ve had to choose. I was born into exile. I was born to immigrants, Brown like the dirt Mis abuelos grow caña in, Like the leaves, glorious colors past; I was born foreign. I was born in Español, Accented with indigenous words, Bastardized like our foods and dance; I was born and placed At the care of a deer’s eye, Tied red around my wrist, A wooden cross, A brown ****** A blue-eyed Niño Dios. I lived in dust for 2 years. I ran free, in fields of milpa, In fields of caña, In zocalos with Colorful waving paper flags And statues of generals. I played with cousins, Sharing bolis and nieve, The hot clay burning our feet, Racing to cool down at the spring. And then I was brought back for school: Los gringos van a estudiar, They whispered, a bit mocking, about me, 4 years old, a girl, In a place where girls were good for marriage, University for the rich, snobby folks Of faraway cities. I came back to the cold land in spring. A small barrio of tall broken down buildings, Tiny apartments that became havens At the sound of guns at night. There was no more running around freely, No more campos, no more town squares. School was foreign, There was English to learn, A struggle to lose the accent, To make the thick words Comfortable in my tongue.

And there she was A rough scab on a smooth perfect knee With a chalky cigarette between bony fingers Chipped red painted nails Matching crimson accenting glossy white walls She knew she was dreaming Because of the ****** sun in the middle of the room Chapped lips crack with scarlet, staining teeth Surgical gloves reaching out from her beating heart Held in by pale marked skin Needles pricking gums, calling upon beads of ruby Incisors and canines fall out one by one Heavy tongue tastes gory wine Indifference and apathy sistering one another Stitches hold right-handed fingers in permanent crosses Though an opal ring falls through The shattering crystal lights the room ablaze Intangible flames lick the ceiling as it rises and the floor sinks An ever-expanding room flashing over and over in endless continuity Like a repeating reel of film catching on fire And then she was gone

Vision of Psychological Apocalypse
I am panic Frenzied particles Moving and shaping Everything I seem to be Inside of a Concrete cage of consciousness Inside of a Dazzling dot and dye marked Enigmatic epidermis Here I am I am ice cold Frost bitten to the core A bullet train made of sleet Running on cyanotic cylinders And the gritty grating salt Beneath your cold, wet shoes All at once I dissolve and destroy myself Yet I just keep Coming back Here I am I am as satisfying as The long winded palindrome On the tip of your tongue The redundant rhyme You chanted as children And the hymn you harmonized With haunted heathens Here I am I am the all encompassing embrace Of all that you are ****** up futile flaws and Autonomous awe inspiring anomalies I will hold it all together In the way no other has My seams of love Stitched and sewn With intentions as pure as gold And nothing else Nothing more Here I am I am the writhing writer Frantically feverish with Fingernails like forceps I pry these words from My brain like a Sickening surgical procedure On a ***** disheveled mattress As if they were Ingenuities oozing with infection Here I am I am the ritual rebirth Wrongfully righteous reincarnation I tip and turn like the tides Lurching at the shore Time and time again In an endless cycle I am Looking for Nautical nirvana Here I am I am the exceptional exchange Of a daunting and diligent dialect Only few can understand And to those fluent In my twisted and tiring tongue I say Here I am
