Been writing poetry again lately.
    #8343678 - 04/29/08 08:56 PM (5 months, 10 days ago)

Reading a lot of William Carlos Williams and e.e. cummings lately. Gets in my brain, and I emulate. Or at least, try to. Posted these in my journal out of shyness and comfort in limited exposure but I wouldn't mind some more opinions.

untitled [sweat]

hashmarks on hot paper
pressed between palms
s'wet

i'm on all fours on the
dusty floor
my unkempt unswept
cerebellum. bella,
you confound my senses.
i keep smellin' loneliness and
feelin' the waft of clean dish scent.
believe me, i am mostly harmless,
i'm just overstocked on
sentiment. love makes of me a
sentinel. it challenges my
sentience.
i've got automatonic love
you've got automatic allure
meet me halfway
draw a line in the sand
then dare me to cross it;
your body is a beacon

a glenn gould kind of lover

nimble fingers
rip roar blanks
undoing buttons
flimsy against flesh
and pressure
curling digits ending
feet - first, slide
so safe at
home with you.
melodious in all your
expectations/baroque
are my expressions
this love of mine
has variations
tempo pitch andante
revving your
undoubtable bends.
bombast gives way to
splendorous pianissimo
a whispered hum
the notes are all sharp

Did you know America ranks the lowest in education but the highest in drug use? It's nice to be number one, but we can fix that. All we need to do is start the war on education.

These days, if a dog’s not getting fisted I can’t even get a boner.

thanks!

i can never remember

I can never remember things
like argyle
until I see it.
sort of like poplars, thrushes, walpoles, and asphodels.
all usable words, meanings unknown.
i weave ideas, i stitch notions, images
of my life
of your beauty
i know nothing of nature
i can't identify the trees
clueless to the flora and the fauna
all their many names
elude me.
i'm a creator birthed of concrete
i buy what i own; i earn what i eat
Whitman has a mile on me (or more)

i sing bridge songs
landscape lullabies
beneath a sky scratched emerald, yellow, pink
before the sun, behind the smog.
i tunnel-crawl and plunge
beneath the river
but never am i wet.

how i spent my day off

breakfast; then, a sweaty walk
to museum nipples rendered
vibrantly in colors like nihonga blue.
carded at the bibliotheque but
no bouncers keeping me from
Rumi and Talgrode, names I chased
and didn't know would lead to
Sufi mysticism at the oriental
pavilion in prospect park.
after mango nuts and salsa i
ascended rusty ladder
shaking sawdust flakes into my hair.
the sun, a diffuse spotlight
rained magenta solar grey; if i'd known
someone was watching i would not have
sunk beneath my headphones, dancing
like smoke out a sadhu's pipe
across the silver rooftop stretched
along 7th avenue.
you caught me naked in my clothes!
with eyes you eavesdropped on my
conversation with my
self, and now i'm sitting
in a whipping wind, gluing
words to paper
so i can remember.
