Incoherent Thread
this time together has been
conceived by liquid starlight
and bound by terrestrial moonlight
an experience of bombardment by proxy
elemental and eternal are the binds
which we have finally succumbed to
with earnest intentions without
anticipation of outcomes
our trajectory points in all directions
while headed toward its ultimate destination:
unified theories in which
we are indeed unified
the juxtaposition of moonglow upon
the suntan of your flesh
exhibits the vulnerability of naked
power and aggression that is
tempered with
a tenderness that warms the spirit
and then i see the light of ages in your eyes
upon waking
some just stare blankly
unwilling to behold
content for the status quo
and delving deeply is simply not an option
but for those with unclean hands and minds,
who cross minefields daily,
there is still time enough...
expunge the demons
with the soft stroke,
hand within a hand
and cheek to cheek we will
slide our bodies into the chute
have you ever wanted to be
a cannonball of flesh and bone
fired out to sea from a pirate ship?
nourishment of the heart
will get the most iron
from a human sacrifice...
we lose bits of ourselves and souls everyday
so why not?
let our desires be self-fulfilling
let us not misrepresent our desire
let us desire our own reality to stave off mortality
while we move, dodge, dance, wriggle and writhe
making moves which ebb, connect and dive
i am both the promise and the dissolution of
the paradigms that hold us to our words
when action takes a passenger's seat to
drives which inspire our ignominy
opaque is our mind's eye
yet we can still see the crystalline
transitory fireflies that flit, fly and
shed light in the
smallest expanse of our
secret places.
