Poem

I know you're out there
    I can hear you ... typing, rat-a-tat-tat
      I echo it, but place with intent
       each finger-step just SO
      each notion a necklace of keystrokes
    individually-knotted
pearlescent beauties, round ...

      ~ I squeeze my mind of chaos, tamped and blessed
Thoughts gossamer, these tapestries I've pressed
       'Tween leaves of crimped reprieves, if dispossessed ~

       I scream without a face
   my voice of subtle silence howling windward
 I scratch messages on cell walls
my red breath burnt with the truth of negligence
 exquisite sculptures ...
   the words dripping like stigmata
       Madonna's bloody tears, each precious ...

~ I place these golden dreams in phrased bequests
       Bright dazzled shining gems of hearts expressed
Adorned with tender odes to thrum their breasts ~

How do SUCH ears not hear?
    How can such breath-embezzling eyes not capture?!?
      Should your own gray matter dance a-tongue
       its metallic tang of truth would be lost
      I would BEG you hate me ... with every fibre
    but that is not love's opposite
THAT demon is the monster called 'Indifference' ...

      ~ I knot the rope wrapped 'round my throat, aware
That you and yours are pleased to kick the chair
       Is there naught ONE poetic soul ... should care?? ~
