Sine capite et corde, non est vivere.

Go like the breeze, climb like the mountain intends to kill you.

embellished with mirth and armored in awesomeness
Pinned
landscapes across emotional planes
in the distance—beyond #myth —mountains
can we walk far enough
or will we fall before we get there
will there be a ledge where it happens
or will our feet rise onto clouds
each step floating, as thoughts sigh into sky
heady heavy horizon splits
fly

the love he held
for her
amplified e v e r y feeling
before
or
after;
a heart of reason
loving d e e p—
an unwished
unhurried journey
t r a n s c e n d e n t
their reality.

the love she held
for them
crushed e v e r y feeling
that lived before
or would ever
live after;
the heart has no reason
when it loves this d e e p—
yet she never wished to
escape
feelings that t r a n s c e n d e d
her reality.

climbing in abstract,
where paint thins to ink,
pencil rides margins,
fraying bindings
free of their spine.
juggling pages—
in tête-bêche orbit,
topsy-tervy,
as if meaning were Möbius.
where there is no end,
there is no beginning—
unbroken,
to be read
without #goal.

flagrant amplitude,
ample attitude—
directional findings
far-sighted sightings,
perspective wobbling.

in the distance,
reflected closeness—
reality mislaid,
words hunting meaning,
unheard.

a beep,
button glows,
nominal—
a test,
and we wonder,
in the hush:
did we pass
or merely proceed?

plastered in paris,
staggering like jagger,
a man wanders—
no longer wondering,
stumbling,
feet beneath feats,
how were they standing
against all odds?

every stride a gamble,
every sway a prayer,
and with that crooked,
glee-struck smile—
it was, somehow,
undeniably
his day.

more than a #number
a dream, a mind unbound.
but paths cascade,
branches snap.

as rivers go,
unable to find a shore.
rapids, rocks, ratings.
oar through all of it—

paddle,
be like a raft,
soar to the bleachers,
above rafters,
a world built
from those same
cascading
branches.

a metaphorical mile
quantized quotes in quettameter,
parameters and parsecs,
warping time,
warping space.

metrics measured in meter,
amplitude waves tonal and strange—
cantrometric reverberations,
an ensemble of encore,
fated in black.

to flounder in finding
stitched strings form rivers
shore is where we gasp
water is where we live

how do we survive understanding
though knowledge grants power
to swim against the school of thought
is to break from reason

oxygen expires
we fade into light
a corpse of creation
feeding life

to be within—
arms open, no reaching.
they leap, release,
fall into me,
let go.

they spin—an orbit,
afterglow;
we coalesce.
energy flows:
science meets soul.

Undercarriages & baggage claims
full of the same scarlet desires —
to feel the sense of being dragged.

Golden hours & the bitter puddles
of fine rye spilled from the tea
cups of fraternal twins,

trussed together & softly stitched
like some Build-a-Bear tossed
to the gulls guarding graves

air

fundamental—oxygen;
wind thinned to breeze,
dissolving into tenderness.
it rises on the inhale,
settles in the chest;
chemistry sets pace,
and the heart, unmoored,
wanders beyond body—
already in flight.

as she had to leave, his eyes attempted to flush reality away with dreams.

how much
asks an immeasurable object,
quotient and query.
indivisible went the line,
running in metronome.
gravity wells, all too well,
knowing the pull clocks time.
punchmarks pressed in palm,
out walks the ticket—
undemanding.

cheeked and chic
smile wide, wild side,
seat-of-pants ride.
minds collide,
time binds,
to the left—
take a bite,
each in kind.
now the climb—
two arrive.

of the heart:

when did you feel it last—
so close, yet often missed?
then you arrive and discover
how deeply it moves you.
were you to be taken by every beat,
wouldn’t you be lost—
undulating on waves of survival?
the edge tremulous,
and how we avoid acknowledgement.

shade of night
the earth sighing beneath me
chosen shadows imprinted
by spirits and broad cadence
signaling the presence
of blanketed bodies
lacking the state of sleep
