Poem Title:
Poem
It’s 5pm and sunny in Ohio, 40 degrees and dropping, by dusk it will be grey turning to red then black. Where is the oyster shell now? The heavenly picture of a pale spume-tickled . An unmarried Tudor lady applies more cosmetic beeswax to a Monarch butterfly. I will see the road from my front window for another hour. At some time I will eat a cheese sandwich, At the same time Consequently I darkly develop a sunny-side up dawn casually dressed omelet. A Siamese cat, coats a Knight with heraldic tar from a nightjar. A clay Madonna carves out epicanthic folds from an African twilight. I believe in chains of associations leading to all possible outcomes. House plants rent a niche of bedrock. Plumes of cigar smoke flutter in airless Mayan canyons. Factory farmed Quetzalcoatl’s hustle the leafy bustles of housemaids as they feather dust aspidistras. Mind can join together one probability or another, one word to another, words that seem unrelated yet together trigger an image that feels newborn. An iron skillet, crushes walnuts on a coffin of dead elephants, a black casket casts kitchen shadows. Here’s the thing, this power that may seem like a weakness, actually is the way the multi-universe works. Camels swim an underground sea, sand dunes wave over a once boozy tavern. Humpback whales recite the scriptures of aesthetic scarab beetles. The laws of poetically possible realities operate for you when you follow your imaginative mind-stream, all these co-dependent transitional factors want to link hands. A speckled moonlight chases a hen around a weather vane while a barnyard tornado whisks a can of English beer. Congratulations, you are now a creator, demonstrating clearly that you are a child of God.
