(is it true that just a tiny flutter of their wings could be the start of a hurricane? are the icebergs melting?) i didn't just write that out loud...did i...with you I'm shy...genius. GENIUS? fine! hide. don't show yourself. don't speak to me. fine! don't bother with rising the sun today. forget those showers you create your magic arc with, vacuum away all the plants. lower your wall of blue. i'm not interested anymore in those pillowy shapes i use to love so. i've always known it is fire that cleanses, water that burns, it is the moon that breaks the heart, the stars that slaps the face...with...i don't know...reality. i've always known by the time we see a star... in real time...it's already extinguished...already dead. it is our friends that will use us...our heroes that will lie to our face... our blood will betray our trust...our teachers will fail us... our leaders treat us like just another job... the devout that will exhibit hatred. still i believe. no matter what else...the rose will always survive. the petals deceiving. they will repel all that is unholy. grab it by the neck and squeeze out its black ooze, leaving a gentle soul there to admire its adversary. don't even get me started on the orchid or even the flowers all...alphabetically. i dare confront the beauty of nature's art unframed... canvas loose to admire...genius! i miss you but i am out of tears. do drop in though. i can offer you a cup of dry warmth... soothing like burning logs that crackle with laughter. or take you to my secret place. behind the camouflage of forests dense, where vines grow through spiral staircases made of turtle shells and dressed in discarded snake skins. green is the theme there. it is everywhere, unabridged, unabated, unaffected, undisturbed with a fuming, burning, yearning to be touched. so let's...let's grab...hold...squeeze.. feel free from the cheap paradigm offered. i don't think you know, even while you sleep, i hold your hand, genius. dream a full rainbow on a fingernail moon night, feel february twenty ninth its absolute might, taste fully the slight of a pheasant in flight, yearn eternal life, wish a vampire's bite, concoct rhymes nicely fluffed with built in sight. genius? on this sombre morning the sun is blinding. damn my eyes. there is a negative entity drapes our children's world. shame on us...shame on you...i need you. i am reduced to an objective observer. life glides on the little wings of its carrier, its final resting point in the hands of the wind. another life carried away on a worker bee, busy stealing nectar from a succulent bud. a stowaway hangs on for dear life to the flyers leg. gets off at the next flower. meets up with a companion to create a new life. genius?, everything changed when I met you. was the sun rising or the mountain sinking. was that an orange globe against a blue sky or a lit round hole in a sad wisp of air. i'll play a keyless piano if you'll paint me a horizon I can reach. i'll sing you a ballad with a single note... i walked into my life without consideration. maybe crawled. all the same... when do I get a choice. when will they stop holding death over my head. if i could direct a few more plays with you as my guide... my art, my life! genius i long for your influence... even one last time to see your face, unite and give you one last kiss...goodnight.
