A Portrait Of Oblivion
I paint this portrait of oblivion
to amuse and difuse my enemy
to incite anarchy in thy heart
there is no nature under mother earth
that is not met in mortal decay
only the mutual dance of stale air
and agreed upon motions
true genius is a virus
that must invade
and destroy their construct connections
alas and so call to arms all the saints
and archangels too
to dislodge the mask of howling aspiration
her mystery seeks to reel me
to strip me of power
wrap me in snakebites
call to bear down upon me her sister asps
I have a stake in all things pure
mine is the shudder of the malnourished
the bleeding song of kiddie tears
a weakness in their totality
I alone dislodge their holwing mask of sanctity
her blood on me in communion
mercury water and the moon crisp shock gathered
no boundaries exist between nations
only forests and deserts awake with rape and whore
it is the dark that draws us deeper
her secrets that slice us open
to our own sound and shame
the spectacle of self is cut from raw bone
we're left to faithfully engage all commers
and late bloomers
and rudy tuders
and the sons of soothe sayers
and slick dialogues of heaven and hells
that are sweet to the eyes and ear
but nails in the stomach
let me remind you of genius
the wash of healers and road magi
bedeviled and jeweled
in a forever crown of sovereignty
the stars will line up for me
Aqua Blue
Armadillo
Armadillo trains rustle under foot
southwest cool jingles of spirit
we ride the night train across
this empty husk
I am your eternal love
can't you see my reflection in your window
I mix soft with neon candy
and teenage sonic boom
and nights spent creeping through your room
and all these thoughts
and way too soon
their bones are out there
they bake in the sun
and the lunar ocean light alike
what stories do they tell
that we cannot hear
or bear to listen to
I want to teach my children
to listen to these stories
for they know the dance
as it is to be done
for they know the song
as it is to be sung
Birthday Poem
If all that I witnessed was meant to come true
the shudders of light
and the dance of new questions
I will lay at your feet for a thousand years
and never truly understand
or maybe that is the curious thirst
that keeps us longing
or wishing perhaps
always striving to some unseen goal
neither here nor there but everywhere
so I make this spot my mark upon
say amen for grace and chocolate
ribbon skies and birdsong
ah, song
the songs yet to be sung
I saw my sky and it was filled with visions of you
I Believe In Love
I believe in love
whether affirmation or condemnation
I do believe in love
the misty mornings drop through me
and the memories are committed to memory
impermanent, but a shadow still
so whats with this whither twang
when I have sweet kiss
a rest in all a rest
I believe in love
it hurts me to say so
it hurts me so to say so
cause my faith is no penny found
or myth foretold
dream it up, stir it slow
love such demon they create below
ah leave me and go
leave me to my thoughts
for grace, alone.
LeeLow
The indecision speaks volumes for all to hear
I clear all paths before me
thinking, in time, without a worrying mind
that i will come to a place of rest
a last caress, perhaps of chance
my hand on your belly
softly begin to sing
leelow, leelow, leelow
pulling from you what little I need
freeze the moment, make it last
what you have will never rush past
I comply in my silence
her fear and no trust
soak the vinegar from your lips
and taste the spy in your piss
set me loose upon you all
how me how
I dare not speak
I am weak, too weak
my rains shall wreak such terrors upon
any weather that's calm is cause for alarm
you swore you met a different man
not the one who bends before you now
you swore you'd love a different sort
than I who swears all before you
embrace, forsake, go ahead it makes you
persuade, invade, go on it moves you
no mistakes, don't stop, let it chase you
I taste, relate, to fuck you
no wait, I'll change and await you
so cry no tears of missing out
cry for those who go without
This Heartache
This heartache spoils that which is willing
and good and so true
I've measured each and every step to protect
the one thought I hold dear
oh wretched you
cursed cursed you
why remain a ghost
when you are only vapor
your paper's tightly folded
your ink soon dry
to scorn all that would obstruct your path
chosen by you
for you alone
heaven has no way
a soul as I has no place to go
only to roam
through roman streets fought for by thee
to sit under cedars
a poppy cut slow
there is no heartache for that which isn't true
I do not know
have I ever known at all
to have and to hold
to love and let go
there are my tortures
these questions I pose
if only, if only
to play, so alone
Zen Poem
Life, the flickering candle
life, thick van gough paint
life, the patient answer
life is the greatest thing
thought, the open flower
thought, the humming scream
thought, the traffic light
thought, is just communion
love, eternal circle
love, the spinning child
love, the playful servant
love is really deep sand
feelings, the great protector
feelings, the stinging wasp
feelings, the peeling paint
feelings are our reminders
life, the dying tornado
life, the blistering sun
life, the aging icon
life is a victory lap
thought, the winter solstice
thought, the history book
thought, the rivers secrets
thought is a reliable delivery boy
love, the silent churches
love, the forgotten joke
love, closed asylum
love is just double dare
feelings, coney island
feelings, the fingered crook
feelings, a lost traveler
feelings like spilling milk
