- “Demolition Tuesdays”
When the Earth
Was Conceived
From the Rainbow threads
Of the Webbed Universe,
The fly had granted the
Spider and said:
“Spare Me, for I am not worthy of your Feast,”
Under the flattery was a coward,
And under the Red Hourglass
Was Vanity –
So they decided upon Compromise
And made Love.
The Web trembled,
Releasing from its hands a dew drop –
Sparkling into the Unknown.
It lay dormant,
But over the course of Infinite Events,
The Water-matter evaporated,
Leaving behind Chromatic StarDust.
This Magic, after sewn together by Chemists,
Became the Home of our Souls –
But within this Home dwells an
Entity;
A LifeForce
That controls all Heartbeats –
That whispers to the Drummer when to stop chanting,
And sings for the Deaf to Hear.
And when this Authority is crossed,
The Stag will shake its many antlers,
And call for Wrath –
And the Everlasting
Voice will sing its
Song to the Flower,
And whisper for Humanity to stop
Drumming.
- “Jude”
I twiddle with
My little wooden
Spoon,
Playing:
“Not Hungry,”
As I solemnly
Observed the stars,
Questioning how
One could have more than
Five
Points.
Was I really of this
Ancient Following?
- “The Affair”
A dog
I saw it today
It walked –
Lipstick out,
And humped my neighbor’s leg:
“With love to you,”
The beast’s tongue flapped
Out
As he slobbered on Her
Pinky toe,
Haloed by a wedding ring.
