Literature Text

In this place of no-time
In instance of this emptiness
I am born anew
From ashes I awaken

The world has entered
My overexposed consciousness
In shattering moment
Of mindless perception

Echoes of the past
My future selves unrealised
Have fused together
In decimation of my being

I am humble
I’m the walker with no face
In merciless present
In coldness of its existence

All my dreams
All dark feelings deep inside
Have lost their meaning
In this stream of endlessness

I simply remain
In the tempest of reality
Cleansed of myself
In glimpse of the infinite

The shadow and the mask

Who’s the shadow underneath the mask Who’s the sad clown With a knife behind her back Who’s the secret whisperer And the maker of all dreams Who’s the fragile thread That connects present with the past Who’s the conqueror of pain Who is the child hurt and who licks the scars Who’s the voice that never stops As long as time ticks Who’s the watcher behind the tinted glass The true self never dies Covered by dirt and shame it hides It struggles its way through the tides The shadow and the mask The nameless one behind both lies

Abandoned

The stuff of stars never settles; coming together, then pulling asunder to drift, to join the ever-quickening race towards obscurity while being observed. I walk through cavernous concrete pathways between skyscrapers, standing abreast against their self-made micro-climate, trying to confuse the wind in my own obscurity, passing through me like a mental sieve made of atoms that out-number the dark matter of abandoned eons.

Cursed

I am cursed to wander Without a home Guided by the stars And the footprints Of who I will become

A Theory of Everything

i You begin as a point The essence of nothing But with two points We make a line And the line is eternal ii When your line meets another We cross, as we must But in our plane of existence I see only a cross-section of you And we are flat iii You turn your head For there is now space to turn And we conceive of the world And the world is round But it is still iv We are but frames Moving ever forwards For these frames are a filmstrip And the film never ends Time carries us now v You make your choices And forge your path And though it splits me in half I follow you Our other selves are lost vi Lost but not gone For all that is, was And ever

Moss Green

Moss green fence slats lay decaying in the backyard, half dried from recent rain. The squirrels rustle across dead leaves, fleeing barking dogs and near-silent cats prowling for a quick meal. Pollen saturates the air; mushrooms grow in the shade of fallen branches as the fuzz of lichen creeps over a trunk felled in favor of a wooden fence.

cultural dissonance

1. i have flown around the world and you - you remind me of home aunties, uncles, cousins teta and jiddo men and women brown from dry heat and desert sun but then there are waves crashing against sandy seashores and there are palm trees ripe with falling fruit fresh at the market and there are men fishing at the phoenician wall it's give and take and like this land you are never selfish 2. i have flown around the world and you - you remind me of all that i miss so i'll tell you you're beautiful when this sense of discord is poured down my throat and dissonance shows up like an eclipse but you can still find me in the dark and y

What would you do?

What would you do? If I said I was in pain. What would you do? If I said I didn't know. What would you do? If I said I was dying. Because I do have a clue as to what I would do if you told me anything

The Glance

Vision dictates passion. Passion dictates lust. Lust pretends to teach us all we know and trust. We fall for it so often, the lie of just one glance, the hope for something darker, the chance for new romance. All in just one moment, all within a stare, we think we know someone: we hope, and dream, and dare. Thinking they may like us, and feeling just the same, guessing all the signals exchanged within the game. But once the stare is over, the accidental look, we see the wrong before us: the glance that we mistook.

It's time to leave the toxic people behind

Life is a continuous cycle, a carousel that never stops spinning, of being in situations where you are treated unfairly by those you (thought) held you close and even if you keep treating them kindly, they will never return the favor these toxic people exhale poisonous gas, that will begin to fill your lungs- this hazardous air can not even be purified by your own clean breath So dear: It's time to find somewhere where the air is fresh as flowers and grass, and you can be the sun- appreciated for the life and bright light that you are, It's time to leave the toxic people behind.

Slate Blue

Slate blue clouds cloak the dawn, crepuscular rays creeping round the blockade to wake songbirds and squirrels. The mill house wheel clacks and tumbles; yeast rises like a whisper. Only the blueberry thicket knows that the taste of sunlight keeps the bread warm.

Literature

but where is the blue

You know how to be just skin. You know how to remove every molecule of air. Every molecule of the unknown. You can nail yourself to the juniper trees. You think you will. Stab through every callus with peels of that ragged bark. Your back to the gnarls. They catch fire so easily, you know.

Literature

Gnossienne

You never told me that you play the bass. Some stories I hear over and over again - Xerox computers, meeting well-known authors - but others I learn haphazardly, stumbling into tidbits and details like a newborn fawn - a junior year spent living on pancakes; a car accident; animating projects in the early days of Flash. You never told me you play bass, piano, guitar. And I worry - what other talents and footnotes are buried too far in the past to light up on my radar? What will I learn about you only after it's too late?

What I describe here I consider the deepest, ultimate experience. It is really indescribable though. And it's not often I even bother to write anything about it. But here we go. I guess a continuation for my previous poems, Me the Nothing, Immediate or Connections
