Jealous in a Sanctuary

It was yesterday my shadows finally caught a glide on the wind and saw red in humor. Earlier I had revealed to the world I was afraid to be poked. Turbines with manifest destiny, and a glow shudder to flames bespeeched where a famine timid and shortly stood upright, I saw what I assumed to be the beginning of another sky but the likes of the dessert bowl of dust howling sweeped me; it was the blinds being crisscrossed. Blinds which a shadow knew to avoid.

I skipped dangling with my head on my shoulders, watching baphomet exited of cards, remaining holistered, doing his iconic jump, and the grimmer smiles zooing on the horizon, with bad poetry not a care to flip on its side. And my eyes rotated in the mind before any recommendation of reality would have me know it. Spewing like a bulb with six legs, a bezel worth its three bodies, its grace for two antennas, and a monstrous skeleton, no matter the sporting tan. Anthropomorphizing it to know what was the matter, it only wanted to shrug, and stand on wires, where all the rotation were like calluses.

But there was a hatch, at the top of it all: A globe too fond of clapping its tenets. Observantly ordinary. Haunting specifically this side of history. Brazen, and a breath for the edge of blunt awakening hoarded in on a rainy night, one where the beach could easily build sand castles if it had ants, I saw the fawning of my blade, and the cut of curtains. Had my shadow parachuted?

Couldn't tell me something normal if you wanted to

I need

love, love, love

baby, I'll feed you love

baby, I'll give you love

baby, I'll hold your love

I need your—

love, love, love

baby, I'll hold you back for love

baby, I'll squeeze you for love

baby, I'll give back your love

Can't hurry love,

change you out for love

The only sound I hear is love

Nobody knows what I'm falling through

pierced together, nuanced between flipped lips

galloping on the universal treadmill, hurried much

Systems arching a caste, and the molds free to shrug

nor would they—as they were free to rings around in belt,

Glimpses in which the rumor milled, fiending over a pass

blade works

like a phantom limb

Never had I seen your dribble swerve,

where to spread thin

slots the sheath

Proudly stands on glass ceilings,

for whom the bell tolls

tugs away in globes

Idols bear in bold—cuts!

and the scissors shoot

the air peels away

Steering countries on the side of its hut;

verbatim of a lived evil

Stuttered in minutes, like ricochets upheaval

capes a hypnosis guard

an organism–a dart,

Wearing chalk, trudes

on an empty spell

an invisible moniker,

A farm away holds

The Earth has no tilt — I do.

Earthly stars glittered, dyed in fame;

steers of thought like antlers close

witnessing the elephant's head.

Montage married to harkening, the safari

divides its logic evenly.

Is Eden a flicker? Is Eve a dangle?

I pillow Christmas in July, no clause.

Purposely single, to do what those cannot:

let life pass by with abridged elasticity —

my words are already spoken.

I am sandface; the mirror is yours.

Never had I heard a squeal

about the secret of the moon

how its true purpose

is to wash away the blood pouring

and cusped within the cylinder

knowing we'd live together,

-

The iron switch, lobbied

"on"

The beliefs swoop

"off"

The turbulence swoop,

the thrill of a curtain

hiding away a looming figure

Every footstep perfect

Done knowingly,

-

Then again, its jestering to see needles float

Soon enough, my corners wisp

and my plateaus get buried, hurling

And the avalanche no longer platonic

Just a hue.

There isn't a switch to turn on the melody

just a body,

God trusts me

though I'm usually sunk into atheism—

without the mention of "God"

I never let the city get to me,

I woke up to the preacher-man

Outside the city skirts

Playing piano

While the sun beams on the church's steps

meandering the window

Only to say hello,

Chords similar to the ring that he holds

Kissed and chunk into chellos

—Lovely hands

I'll get to you

Soon enough–around the pizzeria,

I'm a dog eater

with no journal,

chirped away on silent hills,

Where I can untie the meridian

And all of his glory

And all of his name

And all of his purposes

And all of his—came,

blissed and unfolded away from caverns

That before prophets, there were those blessed

Charged onto the theatre—not limbs.

Just a little up the tide
Sags of that tongue when you talk to me,
breathing like a fox in a burial
With all its pride,
i got soul taken
hidden in the deep south
dinged from that breeze,
don’t nobody find me.

you're constantly looking down
I want to cough you up.
In ways which a pint bellows a compass needle,
enough pathologically begged and rationed by the guillotine
Little and read of the flock
sure enough, it was a wasp.

You're a programmer’s daughter
waiting on Odysseus’ adventure
—chin to a slow, painful look—
Sisyphus wrestles, like a maverick
feistily scripting away, and then put into orbit
