AM deliveries, by deity = quiet morrow memories, producing silent ponderings, in AM, the surrendering renders thee brilliantly~~detect amity in AM’s sanity, inert, chasing peace to prevent PM calamity, seek, seek, seek, in AM’s lucidity, seek an augmented facet of AM scrutiny~~Selah

abdicate your back out, relinquish soft and still, hold open your hands out~zipped up, obtain deserved clout, awaken, child awake to emit doubt~~and stand feet in AM’s paint, smear it blue and spread under eyes on hippie face, on chest and arms, arm self with arms of grace, maneuver to that place, shift, proceeding altitude stage, elevate to alpine state, towering!, immense and lofty, wait.

wait on voice, patient, hold whisper with thumb and forefinger, grasp choice exact and tender and hold, hold, hold and hear, simply perceive with the ear, trim fear and forget to drip tears and geez,..just appear and appear and appear there, in AM, in silent AM with brushed sky and cited eyes.

you draw an arrow that points right

collector

i continue to collect these little nuggets of information that fall down around me sometimes like hail. a time or two they even plunk me on the head - i think they fall from the sky, like from clouds or rainbows or sunbows or rain clouds or God just flicks them off his desk paper football field goal style-but anyway, whatever, they 

fall like trinkets from the sky and when i walk around and listen and look and think and boy trust me i do a lot of that, they shine all radiant being in picture reflection-shine like gold and silver all at once-and they shine so easily seen impression pondering brightness

and i’ve only to walk over and pick them up, it’s funny cause it’s all so easy being a collector when you just pay attention to the things happening around you- when i grasp them and crack them open egg style and seize the knowledge inside of them i want to be so very loud at that moment of realization yet so very perfectly quiet by letting the wind play her part in my life by blowing my brown hair around in the sun on a Sunday when i’ve got ideas in my head about this that you or you

and i’ve even got my picture perfect ray bans on, my darkened Costello specs to hide my eyes inside where no one can look into me and i have song in my ear to guide me and ohhhh what i have inside is so much so much more than words can txt type attempt-hiding ones eyes has always been an advantage because the eyes tell a story or two, trust me trust me on this but back to literally me (but it’s OK to hide your eyes when you practice things)

it’s pure strength and purpose like proper hooligan style strength, fighting spirit strength. i’m a collector which gives me an advantage over everyone. one day one day one day this passion inside will burst thru (many would argue it already has, or is currently) and there might not be 1 single person in the world who knows what i say think feel see but it doesn’t matter one trinket worth cause this collector

is so practiced at what he does that at once and now it begins to come so naturally that he only needs to apply the right foot to the left pedal ever so slightly to decrease his speed which will only serve to increase his pace if you’re drifting with me

start collecting these same trinkets-slow down to speed yourself up. pay attention to the nuggets around you, the nuggets inside you and the sounds around you. twill all go many many millions of miles in shaping your effin soul which is the thing most near and dear to me about you. collect you collector and translate and then enunciate it all into sentences to him or her. man write it down if you’re too shy style

but do it all. dream w/me yous

XXXXXXXXOOOOOOOOOOO

the death of a scene (in two acts seen)

Act I - in two-part harmony

the death of a scene

played out

by teens in skinny jeans

standing all clean & pristine

while pretentiously criticizing

one another’s smoke rings

though equally

lusciously speaking

on miscellaneous unseen things

all these dreams

in crumbly black rooms

filled to the brim

with 20-something dudes

& for a minute

alt-country tunes

& at once, a time

overflowing with pride

over drinking in night

& overtly emoting the times

the scene proved true

without even the room

to shimmi shake or move

yet in two-part harmony

the scene

joined together as 1

as if,…..

a simple symphony

conducted & done

these kids 

joined their deities

in praise

& bought’em shots of whiskey

on stage

simply to spot’em

a midnight buzz

in those fuzzy bars

of tall boy PBR’s

& movement & commotion

& in AM devotion

somehow,

it ended

Act II - demarcation lines

after a spell

of belonging

the clubs would swell

to breaking point

& all the kids

holding the joints

would age

& attempt change

they changed their ways

over nights & dusty days

until the scene

started to drop off

it’s demise then

one big send off

like getting your rocks off

& in a way,

like demarcation lines

drawn in the sand

to split or confine

those few years

of incredible times

of you in youth

of love & in lust

this death of a scene

now with age, a must

parenthetical (tho for what, i don’t know)

your utilized parenthesis i despise

(for typing TRUTH in variety size)

your authorized brackets are rubbish

[as in: too transparent to stomach]

~your adorable little squiggles transpose~

your ability to insignificantly pose prose

your commas are weary, gloomy and lame

as absent, in apathy, your words remain

in grammatical terror you own error

as i and her stumble to syntax stammer

your new rules @re clever in flow

tho for what, i don’t know

future love sex book (rated PG-15)

i attempt a read of’a future love sex book, laid upon my doorstep by an unknown assailant, a mailman w/a slight grin and a misstep. late at night then, i glaze into its contents within, i peak into the first page or 2 as a considerate begin. then soon, w/out hesitation, i say, ‘eff it’, and dive in.

intro to pg 7 then insanity on 278

i cut my finger, paper style, when i try to skip jump the disposable turnstile on pg 7, head spin, look around, no one else downtown, (now’s our chance, go ‘round!)jump up over & down, then turn smile to frown when pg 278 was as garsh-darn blank as a manc bank on the Monday before sept 8th - geez drat cuss a muck, cuss ‘em up, tell’em off, waffle house style, flip ‘em off, piledriver in a while,and try your luck, your cheatin’ last pages stuff elsewhere, skippin’ straight to the end, seekin’ a quick conclusion, an abbreviated resolution, wrong again my friend….cuz the end of future love sex book was about as finished blank as a midsized pink army tank (ya see it needed green speckles to dazzle the generals). foiled.

skip to pg 137, great disgusting muddy mistake you filthy man pig

i attempt again a mid-book bargain spy even later at night ,..huh huh huh,..ho ho ho, oh my oh my, here we go, in my sinister defenses, yes um yes please, with an extra side dish of something a bit more, (REFILL TO TABLE 4) - thisizza chapter we’d like t’get after, and continue to remember thereafter:

i got right proper randy w/a bird called sandy in some broke down shanty on the coastline in her panties, i can still hear the SMACK from slapping her ass, that cute blonde from across the pond, of her smell i was quite fond, and quite a bit more if i’m honest (but our editor cut it). Whoaaa, sheesh, what got intoer? what made’er know’er fear?

us men, in our tight underwear, chomping like a pac man there, w/a bit’a thick brown,….hair, turn clock parts inside her ticking dock, tick, tock, tick, tock, it chirped like a bird flock in her docking station inside, down inside until a predetermined time, then STOP! on a dime, go no further, incite in her nothing extra, none of the afters, afterwards are absurd, cuddling is like hugging a large turd, just nail’er and leave her, for now, for now, until a future book describes how and know how,…so until ‘now’ i flip to

pg 152 with a bit of you in mind

you w/out even a clue as to who you knew or are from afar, but unhitched i ditched sandy and the one night standies, ditched megan (she was a bit of heaven, temporarily, but ultimately too much to carry) and mandy (meticulously dandy, tasty, quite handy but oddly resembled sandy), ditched sherry, (far too hairy), and wendy (dependently too into me), rita, mena, shawndevia, Xena, lucy and goosey all too loose for me.

all absurd ladies, save it, hold it, what’s the rush to smash your stuff, huh? huh? another one of society’s pigeons shit on your new haircut? then calm the mad dash to drop it, hush all the fuss, but in cold sweat reading break i now realize just how these ‘assignments’ i’ve been thru from pg 152 to 202 made me no better than you, her, them, all of them, again, what kinda filthy sick love sex chapter was that but future love sex book, that wasn’t us, not in the slightest, error in your foresight or for me: 4 times not enough in one night?

no, no, no, not me, not me or you, as in me wanting you, but just who are you? when will you reveal your PG-15 secrets to me? it’s you, you, you not them but damn pg 278 ‘why you blank and unanswered like a politician’s question?’ when we spoke this quote out loud to the neon night our response received silence so we trudged on, mindless, faithless,…..

…..to pg 229 wanting a quick end in buzzing neon late night

in gnashing teeth, i no longer see your eyes excite, i see dark black stars outlined in Col. Kurtz horror, invisible marks and false starts, i smell embarrassing farts and view messy sharts, i look up past due midnight repeats on TV, green in envy but all because of my soliloquy, but damn you future love sex book, it’s all cuz of you, of just what,…lackluster infomercials w/sexy late night discovery and empty, empty, emptiness my choice or irrational laziness? yes my effin’ choice, but both, inn’t? ‘breeding own contempt’, the last line on pg 244 shouts to me. 

pg 245-277 (a soft warm water cleansing saved the disastrous ending which was blank and pretending)(either that or i pee’d myself)

you’re unknown, you are sooooo unknown, you are friend or acquaintance seen but so very unknown to me, you walked a dog today or yesterday w/out knowing me, you’re in Asia right now or Boston or Harlem or beachside or LA cab fare, and glitzy, so sexy the way you move, the way you jive with laser eyes, unproven to anyone ‘cept me in time, you exist in musical twists, in late night dives w/french fries just outside city limit drives, and later when tunes vibe, click in style, in fashion alive, in kicks, in shape, in modernity awake, in a poem tried, unaired but who then cares? it was written anyway, locked away, set to private for the right moment, hidden among my mysteries, and mountains of symphonies of devotion or dissolution from the creative norm, a speak out, a cry out for help in a sense i wanna do it, ALONE! which is a film rated capital F for lie if i’m alive, so it won’t be, it doesn’t need me,this effin’ book, this future love sex trick, laid at my doorstep by a dick mailman w/a slightly evil grin and a misstep. huh, gang rape pg 278, who needs life printed on a page at the end of the day anyway?

it’s food for thought mobsters. 

short poem & letter to harriet kinsel from john darke while he was away

dearest harriet,

too many mini-avalanches have crumbled down Affinity, our town’s mountain, since our last correspondence, the rubble from the mess sounding an abundance of trueness.

too many / have appeared concurrently from a trained right hand on my calendar of memory since you saw me away in Affinity in June. i still remember the heat of industry surrounding us like a halted hell, my transport roaring in the background like a depraved beast, patient in her desire to unearth me & our new amity.

yet your brightness in that white dress illuminating light, my soul impressed as i strolled & ascended steel killing steps, off to claim young names in the name of our flag’s sake that Summer day in Affinity.

that goodbye remains an aberration in my mind, & among caskets of young boys heads filled to the brim here like keeping score with intense sin & death a win, & your scent, now mine within, my tremendous memory begins:

you leaned into my rib, your hand spread like sheets on the small of my back, you whispered soft & thin to me after you pecked my chin that you’d wait for me, my return, again & again (Amen), the return to begin, my return from calculated men of calamitous killing then, my return from fields of blood that run away like rivers which flood & then the days where my roaming, reminiscing & romancing & my dream of chancing it with you would pay off like a pay day aloft & it will pave a way, a path back to our town, Affinity, now in January.

& in January you’d barely hide invisible in that white dress, but from head to toe in the colorless snow, we’d do this, we’d give it a go, slowly, wait & see just where it’d go, & just where it would lead us in that white snow.

& it’ll be then, smiling again, i’ll fill my nose, inhale deep, your scent & your soul & crack just a bit & leak out a slip, my hands on your hips, basking, reveling in your intellect as i pull you close, tears washing clean the morose, collected away from your vocals, God, so hopeful, returned away from away from yesterday as harriet kinsel & john darke begin their day.

in affinity harriet,

john

‘member the meme,…?

self realization

the theme,..

well,
we found out the dream
& promised to ring

but decided
to keep it

locked

until the next

scene

saw held touched joy

saw

          i saw you on a golden plane

          your eyes were shy within

          i witnessed angels on your right

          i inhaled your words inside

held

          we held each other in burnt blazes

          i whisked your dress in breezy sway

          your tickle to bone was told in full

          my kissing soft unheard alarm

touched

          a touched cloud reminded breath

          as wind shuffled goodbye in brisk

          i caught a scent of face & teeth

          as painted eyes robbed a life

joy

          come to joy you drunk remiss

          lay inside as covers tumble

          prone to capture slits of skin

          on brown beach we’ll roll tomorrow

this friend of mine & i (& the wine we tried)

this friend of mine & i

like to drop on in & surprise

& when it feels fine

like to reminisce over a drink & dine

sometimes we dine with the finest of wines

yet only after they’ve aged with time

this friend of mine & i

we like to pass this time

(while waiting on the wine)

by forming words into rhyme

& when it clicks they sound like a chime

like a sweet ding going off in my mind

this friend of mine, he’s quite alright

she erases my dark with her interesting light

he swore we’d never fist fight

& she said to me, “when it feels right”

yet i knew all along i’d not lose sight

& i said back to him with all my might

that i promised her i wouldn’t push the night

then in cool calmness not contrite

i asked him:

“why does it feel so perfectly right?”

[Flash 9 is required to listen to audio.]

a friend of mine & i like to think that Bon Iver isn’t from planet earth, but more likely from outer space, a magical being, Elvin, the monster hider under your bed, half sinister, half angelic (yeah, all those) while all too beautiful to ignore yet we plug on letting him punch our guts every single time the switch turns to ‘On’.

talk a walk sometime & hear Holocene, Calgary or Michicant & either weep, smile, vomit, hug a stranger or realize something. 

long-winded, lazy laughing (that goes up and up and up)

to truly foster joy in ones life, one must truly love oneself, i think. not, as in, i like that mess of thick brown up top, or that picture point you do in the AM mirror glance all shiny and shaved, ready to relate a days wage, or those intense calf muscles, or even i’s this and i’s that, or scratchity records to spin, or jobless moments involved in sexual sin, or repeating oneself again and again (quite like i do) but more like, i’m balding and scratchity and cracky and i want more cause i’m financially poor but that’s legit to me cause if i close my real eyes to find that shiny mirror within, my soul’s reflection, standing toats naked and all, then i’m decent enough with that appearance and even the hairiness. and oh what a mess of a picture i’ve just attempted to splatter paint,..

now, now. would it be satisfactory to just say one is there? say, by chance because of forced alone-ness? eff that. how do sentient humans know they really mean it? unless by chances or experiences they’ve seen it, walk by, look, nod & sigh - did history ever conjure up the answer as, “we’ll know we’re there when we’re equally as comfortable alone as we are with other living, breathing, moving and shaking (like minded) beings” - ? thus then able to spy and identify the common denominator as you? we’re all a bit vulnerable in the end or even at the end of the day,…

is that tho the full disclosure (?) of finding it? could it be?

like this thought in a dream one dark AM:

comfortable in skin

regardless of surroundings

make life’s little intricacies

all the more astounding

we think so & hope. & when we think & fill w/hope, this is when we’re able to release so much of the huff & puff in our minds, the cigarette smoke in our eyes, simply the word ‘try’, or ‘the forced hi’, all leaving the upper areas of our torso, more so than before, in life, in time, when attempting to rhyme, so sublime and in the end, divine. & with a pinch of patience, divination in time. do you know what that word means in this context? Um, can we agree upon - you’ll get so effin good at you that you’ll be able to predict, no, control your future & your brilliant feelings - instinctive foresight! and that release is usually pretty decently sweet like something vanilla, or as closing your eyes for a second,..then emancipate:

long-winded,

lazy

laughing

(that goes up and up and up)

equal parts inflation & deflation, flicked on by a helium song, & i’d like to imagine hands on bellies. like clouds & such. fluffy clouds & the dentist’s laughing gas, that laughing which emanates from the joy we’re able to find within ourselves, from the gut, within the song that makes you release your foot pressure on the gas pedal to take that much longer to get there but you’ve rolled down all 4 windows and you’re singing it out and when you do get there, alone, you begin dancing to it - and comfort, thru Coltrane’s God, thru your nephew dancing in his comic book undies, thru lazy Sunday’s and hazy one-day’s, from doing that thing for that person, from just a note on a yellow sticky note, from putting up two fingers in a V to that long gone hurt that used to be within, reborn thru grace and thru comfort prescribed to you like a drug you take, thru rest, thru Kerouac’s new rules, thru innocent stumble upon discovery like when you were a child, thru looking not at, but into & thru eyes, thru 5 guys burgers &fries, thru moms, thru the different ways that i don’t yet understand but those mentioned are good enough for a start, more than applicable to begin slaying all in my path.

& forget for just a second something called validation from others, we’re currently not on that chapter, but the one before it, it’ll come in time with that fine wine you oh so want to sit down & dine with so before that chp and now, this second, remind your mind that it’s the long-winded, lazy laughing like a beautifully sick discharge which releases toxic events but somehow, somewhere with someone, it fills you up like fountain Coke, like pints of Lager after matchday in mother England, like deep breathing, & like God’s realized blessings in your life. 

for a spell, get long-winded

self realization

is life’s 2nd most important thing

it’s like,……….your very own


internet


meme


when i realize the first thing, i’ll politely ring


goodnight, me
