Precious, Painful

Words
So many words
All those words
that passed between us
Lines
Letters
Whole librettos and liturgies
So precious to me
They capture a time when
In my innocence
I believed in a future for us

All the stages we went through
The excited era of discovery
The avowals of sincerity
The slight slips
The offenses taken
The apologies tearfully tendered
The forgiveness begged
and so blithely given
The subtle threats
The turning away
The breakthroughs:
"I feel we are stronger now"

What did it all amount to?
What could it possibly have meant
if it all fell into silence
Not even an echo lingers on?

Yes, I still have all those words
Those silent, magnificent words
So precious to me, every last one
Silent and meaningless as diamonds in a vault.
Words so painful to me
Icons of what can never be
They must never
ever
be
read again.

Oh how I long for that last, best balm

Day I Became a No one. A Felon. An Alien. A Suicide.

The Rabbit's Keen

...Where the geyser has no head
and the river's race is red

Where the rabbit's keen rings wild
'round six stark-kneed storks beguiled

Where the craters' kissing calm
rocks the blossoms' sleeping psalm...

There my blue-eyed sun shall drain
his draught of winds-wept laughter-rain

And from the straylight star-fields glean
the mower's milk, the wayward's wean

Clouds

Nubes esse velim.

The morning would blow me away
And the midday sun would evaporate me.

At Last

Behold now the blood-blackened cadaver:
A lump of a man,
More effective in death
than ever his life's longings.

But no, that is not me;
I've left that earth.
I radiate my last thought into the Void -
The one true friend:
It takes me as I am.

Hope

And so, at sunset
I wrote Adieu
And she wrote Ciao
And somehow
In that quaver between
Never and Someday
I mine a meager starlode
Of immanent hope.

Armageddon

Apollyon drives his flaming chariot
Against Metatron and Merkabah
A cataclysmic clash
Exactly betwixt my frontal lobes
I've mapped Megiddo at last:
Somewhat north of my medulla

Abysmal

Day
 Bed
  Brainpan seething
   Almost deathing
    If not for breathing
     Feet freezing
      Mind foundering
       Sea of violet gel
        Violent firmament
         Frigid abyss
          No passing ship
           Welkin diminishing
            Squid waves hello
             Whelk-horn summons
"I'll be there soon!
To hide my cinder bones among
thine aspirin-pellet shells."

Drops of a Daffodil

I bring you drops: drops of a yellow daffodil, tear drops.

Please, only the first drops, not the second drops!

I bring you green plantings: plantings for the window box, plantings for the churchyard.

Please, only the first plantings, not the second plantings.

I bring you bright up-risings: up-risings of the openings, an Up-rising of the Closing.

(Easter 2014)

Standard Candle

I am blown out into the stellar void
a snuffed standard candle
My planetary nebula summarily sloughed
like skin of a cosmic serpent
All I remain is a hot white point:
Impenetrable density
Seering intensity
nuclear sans nucleus
a pure white corpuscle
of massless proto-plasma.

illusion

I used to have hands to hold
arms
lips
a mouth with teeth to bite
legs
knees
feet with which to walk
I seem to recall.
Was it an illusion?
Now -- nothing
no member
no memory
A fata morgana
of unreal mind over unreal reality.
