"vestibule" poems
I am what is around me. Women understand this. One is not duchess A hundred yards from a carriage. These, then are portraits: A black vestibule; A high bed sheltered by curtains. These are merely instances.

Theory
Dear Azi, I'm full of broken thoughts. My insides are like a box of matches. The moisture from my sorrow, wont allow combustion. I get up every morning with a tourniquet in my hand, seeking the self in the vestibule of my childhood. Your caveats no longer reach me. But, the sweet carousel of your laughter still does. Each loss is a new vulnerability. A subscript, for a long past bludgeon. The only whisper that still holds, is the one that tells of your past love for me.

Goodnight Azimuth
“What if God was a woman?” Asked Lois undeterred. Well well well, if God was a woman — she continued — Perhaps agnostics and atheists, wouldn’t say no with our heads but we'd say yes with our guts. Perhaps we would approach to her divine ****** to kiss her feet not of bronze, her pelvis not of stone, her ******* not of marble, her lips not of gold. If God was a woman, we would embrace her to steal her from her horizon and you wouldn’t have to swear “till death do us part” because it would be already inmortal by antonomasia, and instead of give you AIDS or panic, contagious her everlasting life would be. If God was a woman, she wouldn’t lie far away in the kingdom of heavens, but she’d live in the vestibule of hell waiting for us, with her arms not closed, her rose not of plastic, her love not of saints. My God, my God… — if for ever and from ever you were a woman — how beautiful scandal it would be, what a fortunate, splendid, impossible, prodigious blasphemy.

appreciation
I do not shriek at bedtime, when the bad cacciatore twitches in my belly, and the mushrooms knock a fearful tattoo at my throat. Instead, I glide through the vestibule of shadows that lies between the bedroom door and the mattress past the closet's maw - a crypt from which I have exhumed many a princess whose sweet caresses last only long enough to cuff my trust into terror; their butternut breath on my smooth cheek scratching valleys down which my tears may flow into my open mouth where the salt tingles on my tongue as I cloak my doom with the incantation of the innocent: "If I should die before I wake...."

Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep
Where does solitude end And the beauty of love begin? We must allow our emotions to permeate Our spiritual vestibule Before rapture dawns Like an empyreal gust Within, upon, and throughout us, Then our bliss will no longer be ephemeral, It will be everlasting. Someone on this existential expanse Loves you Beyond words, Beyond thoughts, beyond Time & space, With cosmic understanding; Like, age-old supernovae Radiating with stellar light Until their macrocosmic romance Waxes nebulous: —Dust to dust. You who are gleaning these words, Contemplate your immortal value As a living legacy That Burgeons & blossoms beyond the day Of your exodus from the Earthly Plane For the soul is a seed Radiating with the Eradia of Ages; Therefore, shine Until The Flora of Yore, Yggdrasil germinates within. Lamentation makes you more loving, Just, wise, and strong; Yes, embrace every moment That life brings For Providence safeguards you Within His Celestial ramparts. "But the path of the righteous is like the bright morning light That grows brighter and brighter until full daylight." (Proverbs 4: 18) (NWTSE) You have an undying will within you, You are a vessel of sanctity Intemerate & hallowed; Yes, you have been set apart For an ethereal crusade With no known beginning & An indeterminable end; Exhale, you are Life, Love, and Liberty, And a Spark of The Divine. It is true, that you are the experiencer of Your joys, your sufferings, Your exultation, and your woes, But you must ne' er forget That you are not alone; Therefore, walk forevermore In the Baptismal Rays of The Sun For you were borne with purpose, O, Warrior of Light.

Little kitten i would have your purr and bristle fur inside of you i'd be lion strong And you could scratch and cut and use me as your post. And i would drink you up up up my tongue my throat a vestibule in time catching and licking and suckin and taking you in sublime. All fluid and raw flesh and blood My hunger for you is feline *** canine Bloodthirst, this urge this roar inside of me for you. Animal intent I am your awakening, the ache to your throb you pulse through my veins and i want to be taken in your claws. You are not submissive and i am not Domme but you'd melt in my paws. Up high Against a wall i would carry you on my shoulders your back against the wall and drink and breathe and become your flesh from within you i'd break and re-mould and detail the design of your love for me. I would be your strength embodied a boy of flesh of depth of passion of friendship fashioned intrinsically with love and Oneness. I can only be the only one.

Little kitten
Monday mornings are always easy. Monday mornings bring a breeze South Of The East, North Of The West. Its caressing the exposed skin of my flaky neck like the lead cannon from Atlantis, Flying for the grasp Of the cactus from San Pedro That provides mescaline to the tribes Nearby, that pray to its being as The Messenger From The West. Beyond the horizon, Like the jack rabbit, eroding, with a tube Sock in the vestibule over The Dungeon That Sings, Sideway neighbors to the uvula. If seen that way.                                            Beyond, the continual rings of                             Agorapho-                                                                                                     bia, Challenging anxious mind, With ideas Of how it be the, not the seal in yestereen's heels. Monday mornings Are always easy.

There is red in the forefront of my family crest, I was told that meant outsiders were not taken lightly. We would pour tar over castle walls and then many years later down our lungs. One technique would take longer to die. Riding a steam engine with a harmonica attached at my chest to make tips I double-tasked with a guitar while tar burned on the vestibule. Keeping those who didn’t like the smell out. The engine burned killing pixie-dust flecks and turning them into cinders. To Duluth and back each mouth mimicked. We used to abide by segregating those who enjoyed torture and those who didn’t.

The Letter "R"
Tired on the train I listen A young mother on her mobile solemn faced but beautiful eyed angrily confronts her daughters father with a maternal mantra *How do I tell her When I have all her tears and questions?* I guess he keeps hanging-up or the signal is lost The words repeat almost verbatim and repeat and repeat No-one looks everyone listens And then in the vestibule a smiling South African recounts with passion about the Jacaranda turning Cape Town purple around this time of year ...he missed his stop

Just Passed Stoke
~ There she was chasing a rabbit with 1 am coffeecakes and weak tea She didn’t notice I was watching from the branches of an olive tree A lone smile hidden amongst swirling smoke rings in a foreign accent To the gazebo she ran with its straw grass tables and pleated cushions in hibiscus print fabric no one would sit on My eyes followed her as she darted around manicured boxwoods and cherub statues spitting water onto sleeping lily pads She came upon a dandelion and asked politely, “Pardon me, but have you seen a…” The **** interrupted, “Didn’t, don’t do drama dreams dancing deliriously down donut distracted ditches” “That’s dumb” she replied with a giggle and a snort   This must be her fun, I think, trying to catch a white ball of fur, big, then small, then smaller still like a thimble seeking a thread, when now she is stopped in her ziggy zagging tracks by a June bug singing, “I see, I see, in front of me Dessert, dessert, set out for free A chocolate pie, a chocolate pie in menus written on the sky” Perplexed she climbed upon its back, red leather shoulder pads with black dots changing shapes, ducking winged arches that covered the vestibule they soared through when a sharp turn pitched her to the opposite side… Landing with a thud, her new dress now soiled between the wrinkles in time that had ticked away on a clock faced sun named Ray She cried carrot tears, orange sherbet streams on peach tone cheeks, marmalade miseries and mango miscues piddling on her patent leather shoes, ready to give up When it appeared hopping happily, jumping into her lap and licking her face She caressed its fur, removing sticker burs and scratching just the right spot, as its right rear leg thumped with joy Then lifting the bundled bunny to her face, she kissed it tenderly with wild cherry gloss lips, or should I say…kissed me for you see, all along, it was me And you thought I was nothing more than a pretty smile…..

crumpets and tea, taken with grinning powdered wigs go scrumptiously well with a Mozart piece played in the tired drawing room; Tchaikovsky's Fifth would have the subject alone in the vestibule, ear against the ballroom double doors of ornate mahogany, muffled and muted and just being; Philip Glass Is The oppressed past lit -- A futuristic glance over one's shoulder Regifting an overrated present

a comment on music
*Walking meekly in the shadows, avoiding nakedness, this vestibule of self-preserving isolation, my 'padded cell', has become my buffer against the raging tide of life. This makeshift home has no place for exaggerated emotions. Nothing comes in and nothing goes out; always the safest option for the perfect existence. The gatekeeper controls all activity. Shock, pain and denial brought me to this desolate place, watching myself, the outsider looking in, as my soul was ***** abuse was the joker who played a hand in this game of cards. How easy it's been to sit back and pretend to myself and the world that I'm satisfied with all that life is offering. who was I trying to convince? No I. So many times I wished I could undo the done, turning back time to where earthly utopia was intact, escaping this cage, running carefree like an innocent child on a first new adventure The hurt child lays dormant, but her will does not die, she beckons and teases me to test my toes in the strong currents of life's raging tides, seeking out its throng. She reminds me of a halcyon era of innocence, before laughter and confidence eluded me. A time when I played, thinking only of the day. Friendship, acceptance and self discovery have healed me. Trusting my inner child, I gently turn the key, unlocking, tentatively. I feel alive, seeing the light so bright and inviting. Choosing freedom, pensively, I take one last look at my dwelling place giving thanks for the sanctuary she offered me, taking my first baby steps back into society. Carried on the swirls of the tide to wherever they take me, I am now Mistress of my own destiny. Rebirth*

Egalitarianism I’ve preached this practice To its last final straw Respite I’ve hired the time The strongest of clocks Magnanimous You’ve endeavoured too It’s never true when you do Coercive I’ve attempted them all The mightiest of guns Vestibule You never did let me enter Probably knew I’d hide out Vertiginous Causation; I know it’s you To Induce; I flail barely flickering Transcendental I divide you into parts But your logic seems boundless Perennial I will continue to bloom Even after your harvest.

8 Words To Describe A Relationship
***Book One (∞The Psalm of The Star Child∞) The Precursor's Psalm I-V To the Child of The Empyrean. For ye valleity stars shine. (I) ―En Fortissimo 1 Tender with sentimentality, I fathom you, 2 That you draw closer, nigh’ with every waking moment, Closer to ensconce ‘twixt my embrace, 3 That your towering arms May aegis these benighted bones. 4 The Vestibule of Our Souls shall be Assoiled by an Arcadian Eternity, 5 Shall scintillate in my every blooded tear, shed garnetiferously, ―Upon my crucifix, our crucifix: 6 A penance, pardoning our transgressions prognostically Before by romance, we touched erringly. (Se'lah) (II) Celestial Communion 1 O, Star Child, May your beckoning 2 Sow the Seeds of Somnus upon the sanctimony Festering in my faith, 3 (A besmirched hope) Tarnished by my reverenc’d doubt. 4 O Minstrel of Manumission, Will ye sing unto me ye SoulSong? 5 The Womb’d Aethers bleed, The Terraqueous Mother conceives, Gaian a dream, 6 Her Luminous Brethren yearn For the Arbiter of Fates. (Se'lah) (III) Song of Wishes 1 Velleity speaks, It whispers, 2 In the twinkling of the stars. When shall it end, 3 When It has yet to begin? 4 Be still― and become one with all things, As time fades, consciousness begins, 5 The Experiential Cascade: All that was, all that is, & all that shall be, 6 Circular & Cycling, Forevermore. 7 Know that there is a reason, Know that there is a place, 8 Know that there is a person, In this world for you. 9 Open up your heart and see, All you were meant to see. (Se'lah). (IV) Spiritus de Tempus (Zeitgeist of the Future) 1 ―Blooming in Reminiscence The Dreamscape glistens, 2 A Redolent Reverie wafts The Tenuous Air amidst 3 Her Zephry'd Lightwaves & Crystalline Pulsations. 4 Ardently I pine, For thine visage, groping for a rhyme, 5 Whence I can gaze once more upon thine Countenance sublime, 6 All desperations been defied, For thee I reverberate Love, The Spirit of the Times. (Se'lah) (V) Bastion Heart 1 The agony in existentiality Unravels undying piety 2 And Cloistered in cadence of solitude, 3 I, the Somnolent One, Am roused by The Heart’s Resonance. 4 In wanting, there is life, In desirelessness, wanting still, 5 Know thine Power, Indomitable Will: 6 The Couer & The Amour of the Spirit Are immortal. (Se'lah)***

i once read that there are names for the spaces in between body parts, architectural structures, musical notes. names for spaces as if they are real concrete solid and not just gaps voids silences like buccal vestibule of the maxilla is a space between the cheek and lateral face or piscina is a space in a wall near an altar and F A C E are the spaces in between the lines of a staff. spaces with names because they are part of something. even if technically they are "spaces" and not just hollow empty blank so i think their names suits them well. because at least you know what to call them. but there is also a space between you and me it bears no name and i think this suits us just as well.

Incendiary asperity: The world's existentiality Agony, the Merciless & Mercenary Scourging me entirely. The Angst of the Aeons Are the pedigree, the genealogy, the history borne to emancipate Me as a Vessel of Sanctity For the valiant souls Are the souls of transcendence, who revere in remembrance The Amour of the Yore My Vestibule Heart Expands, contracts, being consecrated demands just as Starry-Wombed the Cosmos, we Must grow, burgeon through our learning & yearning, deserving & pining for the Promise of Morrow For we were not formed To wallow in sorrow. As I gaze to the heavens O, ***** and Gomorrah I remember The Wife of Lot looks back forever: emblazoned as a Petrified December, Then Fire & Sulphur descended, mankind nearly ended; What is the lesson? Of faith we are descendants. Why do you Roil my ravaged and brutally savaged soul? Must bitterness be the wage for days spent having prayed On my knees, for armistice, by The Empyrean One’s decree? Though I have fallen, I shall rise up For the Fate’s Auric Visage radiates light upon the leaven, Dost ferment the flesh dominating mine spirit. Hearkening to The susurrus of the Sovereign of Songbird’s Sacrosanct Love. Let the Ethereal Tides of Time Bathe me in baptismal & divine tribulation, trial For a writhing while, Sacrality is a war, The Primal Instinct’s Immemorial Diminuendo. Where has fake paradise of the Sylvan Shine Those forested, emerald Eyes That glisten in mine dreams gone? Your visage twas my divine. Though I am forlorn, The Cosmo-Plexus of Empyreal Love hath sworn To the Days of Yore That I shall soar once more. To my Enfettered Soul, Excelsior.

Incendiary asperity: The world's existentiality Agony, the Merciless & Mercenary Scourging me entirely. The Angst of the Aeons Are the pedigree, the genealogy, the history borne to emancipate Me as a Vessel of Sanctity For the valiant souls Are the souls of transcendence, who revere in remembrance The Amour of the Yore My Vestibule Heart Expands, contracts, being consecrated demands just as Starry-Wombed the Cosmos, we Must grow, burgeon through our learning & yearning, deserving & pining for the Promise of Morrow For we were not formed To wallow in sorrow. As I gaze to the heavens O, ***** and Gomorrah I remember The Wife of Lot looks back forever: emblazoned as a Petrified December, Then Fire & Sulphur descended, mankind nearly ended; What is the lesson? Of faith we are descendants. Why do you Roil my ravaged and brutally savaged soul? Must bitterness be the wage for days spent having prayed On my knees, for armistice, by The Empyrean One’s decree? Though I have fallen, I shall rise up For the Fate’s Auric Visage radiates light upon the leaven, Dost ferment the flesh dominating mine spirit. Hearkening to The susurrus of the Sovereign of Songbird’s Sacrosanct Love. Let the Ethereal Tides of Time Bathe me in baptismal & divine tribulation, trial For a writhing while, Sacrality is a war, The Primal Instinct’s Immemorial Diminuendo. Where has fake paradise of the Sylvan Shine Those forested, emerald Eyes That glisten in mine dreams gone? Your visage twas my divine. Though I am forlorn, The Cosmo-Plexus of Empyreal Love hath sworn To the Days of Yore That I shall soar once more. To my Enfettered Soul, Excelsior.

Across the bed, she has lain, Not breathing not in vain. My mood is as stoic as her skin's hue. It started early with how the day Cut ***** windows with sunlit rays, Was as southern as a slice of honeydew. She was leaning by the gate, Like Christina Applegate, As willing as a pauper without a clue. I never asked her name, To me, they were all the same. (Somehow, I think this one might stick with me.) There is an absence in her eyes I have loved since her demise. She will stay this way in my memory. I pour the powder on her pale, ****** belly, then toot, inhale. Through my nose, I feed my mind. Sticky dryness of my mouth; It's time to leave the south, Go somewhere no one can find. I can still hear the sound Of the drive by shooting down On the street from around the block. The room is a vestibule To the starlit harlot's tomb. When I'm done, I leave her on the cot. As I move through the door, And leave behind the ***** I muse, briefly, how I stay in the clear. To all the good Catholic boys, May you bang up lots of toys. Have a ****** belly Christmas this year.

with good guns and ****** marys in a slow-spinning vestibule with chairs made of wicker and wood, and accidental great whites smiling from the ceiling. music slips in from her viola. we wish we were in a class of language by Fridays and last night's setting fire to station wagons, knowing not how to prevail. from our seperate young boats, one last sip, we watch the sunrise and we let life be the same, equal distance between our names. the afternoon ends with abnormal thunder walking overhead like dead neighbors. on the ground we walk their way, too. so this is Rhode Island? then music slips in.

Wild and uncontrollable Fresh air To the vestibule And saint's alive Life is a headlong dive. Flying squirrels Little girls Unpredictable But equally lovable. People feel things Like kids say things And everything Is under a microscope. Hate is a long game Love has short reasoning Feelings drive emotions Fueled by everything but reason Logic Makes us murderous. One plus one plus it's all ****** up You can't swim out of this pit Too soon to tell But I think You're going to hell. But the future is unwoven The Seamstress Union is on strike Yarns of every color Are scattered on the floor. An industrious imp Tosses in a steam-driven loom It eats up all the bits And spits out new histories. So genes collide In their secret unions But messages get crossed And we welcome new mutations. In the wake of a mininova bang Conciousness is all-grasping Freedom unobscured and No Trespassing ignored Tucked away in safe corners You keep all your real answers.

plus it's all ****** up
Ever so eager to be evil, Only way to avenge is by revenge. Committing sins that’s justified When you amend Like when men pray then “Amen”. Convinced by the belief that you’re reprieved When you repent. You stick with it Even though you know it makes no sense. The only way to hit where it hurts is by malevolence, Benevolence hardly hurts when it hits So it’s irrelevant. Why **** ‘em with kindness, When you can **** ‘em with violence, **** acts of kindness, And act with vileness, That’s about as mean and wild as vile gets. Meanwhile, foul gets the best of you, But what will get the rest of you? Believing that god is still blessing you, When karma starts addressing you, God is really testing you, Hopefully you catch it Before you’re taken to hell’s vestibule.
