SHADOWS OF DANCE

The day stands on the same

bones of anxieties

and inertia. The same chirps,

that may be a song, or a howl of

a sedimented pain;

and many pieces of same sun

dancing outside my green blinds,

that for some reason

keep reminding  of

death or a muted orgasm.

And the same sonic apocalypse

of assault rifles

blacking the rainbow

of my neon infinity.

We live the same day everyday,

just clothed in different

colors of psychosis and rapture.

The buddhahood of one,

is somebody else's delirium and high.

RIVERS OF BECOMING

The hydraulic love, tangled in tango;

turbulent and fractal

reaches out to kiss you with its

limbs of liquid dunes. I think it

was Heraclitus who said you can't

step in the same river twice. And Osho

who said you can't step in the same

river, even once.

I see no river to step in,

only a becoming that never sleeps.

DEEP-BLUE DREAMSCAPE

When the day is body of Buddha,

sky becomes soul of sea. I slowly paint

your cargo of reds and let it float.

You have found me there, and

my packets of swelling anxieties.

The calm of infinite coordinates,

beyond and beneath.

You smile at me without your eyes,

the hadron collider of deathless

hopes. The rapture ruptures me.

I refuse to kiss the moon, to let you

safely sail on my skin,

while i will remain an unplumbed dark.

The water is sweetened to tame

the turbulence. I will guide the wind,

to let us be the singular blue.
