take a seat

within a house called reality,
i watch the walls breathe
as they surround me.

the rhythm hides, yet
frames hang; portraits listen—
they have eyes.

it all feels alive,
save me: a couch in a room
meant for living.

i wait for company—
a loud, rapturous oomph.

i hate that i had to mentally imagine this
brittled like wafer
pressed thin for the bite
sugared to sweeten the deal
buttery, caramel layers
between the slices: a life, candied
a decadent crack
flecks unstack, go flying
where have they gone
lost to flavour, to longing
milk-chocolate marvels
the end draws near
and still, we want more

restless as rustling, harken breath bellowed endless

#rustled those jimmies,
in a tossing and tussling,
jewel struck his eyes, was.

the competition is going to get heated soon
before dawn

before the #atom,
energy went faceless—
pure possibility, not probability;
symmetry unbroken,
vibrations without a clock,
and silence—ready to birth every sound.

turnings

spun roun’ the lathe—carve, ye;
twist the blade to bevel;
ribbon turnings flake,
gold curls—kerf-calling.
arch along the grain—
delicate refrain—
pirouette faster;
spiral catastrophe
until—snap!
a calamitous clap;
curls loosen into applause,
cedar-snow spins as it falls.

i read something written by this marx guy, sounds like it will go as he says.
i wrote one about elves but it keeps moving on me
will you still be here? and oof, if you have the content you can host it free on cloudflare with a domain.
wow, this sounds like the type of sycophancy that could get someone elected.
in the river a stern breaks water
shedding into wakes taking form
from a distance it #hovers— i wonder
are the flawed reflections truer
are we only what's reflected
by what we fall to—our nature
a shade of another life waiting to be seen
so i wake to perception itself
imperfect as it gleans

our house

held by rafters,
structure bare—how brave:
rib cage exposed;
and the heart was feet on the floor—
children dancing,
playing with toys;
a beat of joy
in a body called life.
a home as vessel,
pulse held steady
in the arms of family.

The hawk hangs poised
between the earth and sky,
a prayer suspended
in the wind’s own prayer.

My heart hovers too,
where the wild birds cry,
torn between
my cage and open air.

look to the edges
find nothing: burst
is reality fabric
if not, why seam
ruptures: steam
pipes—outward to life
heat gleams
reality bends
or only seems
is a beginning an end
a fresh scene

sensation
cessation
elations

born of deviation
this chaos: quiet
this chaos: riot. i ride
the wave called life

#spectral self within,
mirrors mirror their mirrors—
which eye holds which gaze?

peerless in pairings
why is there no mirror life—
answers lie #spectral

of suffering:

let suffering be your companion and find solace in its wake. it offers no harbor, but when you reach shore—as you will—you’ll be humbled by the quiet calm of solid ground.

mom

held in a crook—
an arm for a nook;
the sink was a tub,
big as I was.
a trailer as mansion—
single-wide.
there was pain,
there was strife;
but her smile
made it
alright.
such were
the beginnings
of a humble life.
