ANALOGIES

All my analogies have rebelled

wishing a place among the living

stripping away their cloak of
innuendo

And with fang and claw

they take me

THE NAMELESS THING

There at the bottom of my soul’s pit

was a nameless thing that moved

The proximity of this horror
to my heart made me leave my skin

ASPHALT HEART

Skittles rolling across the road
all the colors of a rainbow
blue beetles climbing
all the muttering way into
a chasm of my asphalt heart
A hawk upon a slender pole
evolutionary eyes tearing
souls apart — SQUAWK!
A white line fever keeps me
away on a long road into the
forevermore and I cry…
I cry…within a nest where
she threw my eyes|| it’s
easy to see without eyes
it’s easy to breath without life
so easy to be simply broken
all apart

MANNA DOLL

A silver snail gone to hell
light bulb sun!
If you say that you love me
then we’re done!
Took the manna from the sky
and made a doll
It’s just like you so pretty
And all the righteous ones
sing and weep
and the doll dances
such a super natural feast!

LANGUAGE NECKLACE

THE moon pies in your mouth make sweeter
kisses as you lose weight
and you said, “Art, let’s go to the
museum, I wanna hang you on the wall
cause I need to criticize you then leave
you for the other critics of life”
And like the gills and fins of
dying creatures called poets;
fishing for all the right words
so relaxing to bait another hook
with syntax by the ocean eating me
I wear the language necklace of hearts
within a never-existed lesson in love

SO THIS IS THE VOID CALLED LIFE?

AS a heartbeat

I heard a voice
and the voice had a sound ;     like
a song of something:       words?
And the words were entwined
in a sticky glue some     may say
are feelings and the   fire-tips
of those dancing flames had
a weight called         emotion
and the      emotion         was like
gravity next to a black hole
and the black hole was inside
a cave of bone called Mind!

TOMBSTONE

UPON a tombstone somewhere
of a deceased Atheist:

ALL DRESSED UP AND
NO PLACE TO GO

A TAXMAN IN THE HALL OF ART

I like the smell of art and the walls of museums
taste like the last kiss that broke my heart
discarded hearts inside
the highness of pain
We walk across the color
of the ancient blood
dripping dried souls
so many canvas’ of…ha ha…
and your flesh mixed the thought-wolf hungry
libido of my own art it’s forever until
I have another chance and it hurts, too much
pressure so, like now depressed compressed
breasts and hips and butterfly cups overfilled
by the sun-horror of life
Art.  Madness.  Words.
Expressive untaxed product
until it’s sold to the world
NEVER!  NEVER!  OH, NEVER!

FOREVER!!!

OH ROYAL BLUE!

oh Royal Blue   above
all of us, loved
oh golden soil  below
that souls kiss
and all of all of you
so preciously a gift
that souls should know!
I sing with silent voice
and feel with shout!
And dance the birth
of life in every moment
this life should give
to me;  today tomorrow
yesterday and after
;thoughts of you
my Royal Blue  above
my golden soil below
the world is a meal!
the soul a hungry mouth!
the heart a dish to hold
this thing we call life!

DREAMS OF MY OWN WISHING

THEN like when early mornings
nodding wakefully by sunlight
and youthful slowly days turning
the page of that thick book of life
by when had once, and of their
loved moments of glad grace,
and the song of tender feelings
that by nature sings to hearts
between/below the rays of light
by babbling brook and glowing bars
And swollen tears too pregnant to birth
the breach of wishing, little sadly,
to see the dream fleeing upward
into the misty mountains overhead
I hide my own heart; my own life
the precious dreams of my own wishing!
