Punctuated Equilibrium #18578







I’ve fallen victim to little blisses
the easy moments in the room

once      I’d ejaculate truth & thunder
at the edge of the Andaman sea
seek Sufi & psilocybin Charybdi
through Minotaur mazes of jungles     of cities
of electronic cork forests
bestride razored palisades  where none could find me
even if sometimes        I'd climb at home
ecstatic movements to a town or state
I’d not neuroned before
kissing moments elusive
every time a surprise how simple they are

avow wow         never let go     let go
throw yourself about your shoulders
like a worn traveling cloak
warm               warm              warm
but for the gales of forgetfulness
and knoll rolled fog


Easy to be junkie dependent
when the fade rides the fix from the very 1st rush


Maybe a symptom of simple survival
18thousand days makes many changes
but it feels like I’ve mist stepped
fallen victim to close quiet blisses
karmically crouched, stout & encouched

April may be the cruelest month
but November is subtle as the woman who got away
took you for everything even your dignity
& yet you pine
still bewildered

February may be a knife to your throat
but November leaves you gasping for air
rising to the surface
hoping to break the surface
before the ice closes in

June jumps July just jangles & May may
but November does as she wishes
haughty or hale loving or leaving
and not only can't you stop her
you couldn't even explain to her
why it might hurt






The Mona Lisa






Art is like nipples on a man.

did you think I meant vestigial or useless?

that says more about us than it does nipples.
or art.

Art is like nipples on a man.

Glorious!
