empty glass on picnic table
Look at that empty
glass
100% full of air; &
100% full of light
also in there.
That’s two
hundred percents at once
simultaneously
occupying the same
space in perfect harmony.
Look at that empty
glass in which
space of
totality
seems so central to
the glass
but basks
borderlessly.
envy
Bird
atop a flagpole soared—
Mind
skewered on spinal cord.
when I stood in Emily Dickinson’s bedroom…
You who
breathe in my Address
eyeing my white writing dress—
beat-beat of your heart is Loud
but I may make your skin a Shroud
for stepping sole in my bedroom &
gazing out my Glass—
I could harden your heart to Tomb,
& can do it fast.
Lots of folks fall in love with me
now that I’m safely dead—
what makes you think I would have let
you backslide in my bed?
Writing poetry was my
Luminous Innerwear—
no suitor in some bodysuit
could possibly
compare.
Leave
it to me
to feel…doubt…
moments after you:
Walk Out!
apologies to DT
GodGlow naked bulb stays still
through moving mind lampshade…
rage
at the dying of the light
but deLight doesn’t
fade…
waiting for it is the only thing that is
delayed.
their names
I’d like to introduce you to—
egoless deities.
Their names describe them far more than
their physicalities.
Most are friendly (some are scary) scary
only so:
they scare away ego; & so open the way
: to GodSun
from soul-ray; or brainwave(s) to GodSea;
however you conceive…they always say
It’s
better to connect than to believe.
Graciously they let
yours truly transcribe poetry :
per
their utterances
(ordinarily word-free) resulting in
(what some of ‘em call) worded clarity
(some condescendingly) but most agree the
poems point to
what’s
best known wordlessly.
I’m pleased to say this poetry would not
have come to be—
without friends like these
who snuck me in
