    What, what


    Clutching my stricken pen
    It drips ink
    Thinking high-browed riddles with dry ink stints
    I attempt to rub it warm
    To flow streams of running wet feet
    I chase one dream within the eye of the nimbus storm
    To assassinate pillow case feathers, to grasp sub-conscious reels
    I’m shackled to an ossuary locket without a key and open socket
    So I’ll murder all phantom intangibles’
    Fantastic cadaver tapping an atom in-tango jerking japer crook
    Give caster a terrestrial theme then watch him happily die again for just need
    I’ll catch the bulls-eye before this cardiovascular skips its last beat
    Oh-okay,
    farmlands and cattle post are where people live by the flogging lasso
    Sheppard’s watch over sheep huddles
    Toting gun shots to any wolf pack looking to reduce the herd’s numbers
    **Isn’t that the chained cycle of nature**
    Plumage is a gutter bum, haggard crack-pot asking for starvation hand-downs
    I float upon the horizon’s vast canopy
    Caterpie shedding a cocoon to kill gravity like a soaring butterfree
    So when the sun sails to the easterly-planes
    I’ll open my mast and let this bark move on woods
    Severe the anchor and blemish stagnant currents oddly
    And I can’t be a marauding bandit
    Lit candle stick, photographic candid camera pick
    I hang factual myth
    Burning truth at the melting stake
    Virtue is my good grace; salty fingers are a welcomed ace
    Timeless sun-dial, prehistorical dim-watt
    Brass horns sing aloud quite proud
    Asking to get polished so as to gleam for the crowd
    That’s a Barbie-doll fortress with superficial modelling rings
    I want a mirror
    Just to annoy my shallow mirror image
    To giggle, when it cringes in silence
    Truth kills form so substance should live forever
    False impressions reflect cookie cutter facades
    Think hard
    Gravity is just another mirage
    Right, the Wright brothers proved that flight could easily be done
    So force weighing anything down, clearly not a tick like a dot in light

    Daps to you, for your works sparks a flame in darkness, an angelic being links truth to minutes, to cast away times constrictive spillage

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
