Notes About The Poem

a heart for a soul

a heart for a soul and a soul for a heart 
i am the living ocean and you will drown
i am the sun and i will storm

your attention seeking with infantile trolling 
is a bigger concern than your interest in UFOs 

some men are wise while others trifle

RIP all your internets 
the star the priest the pope
the elephant in the room and the flying monkey
the wise folks and the otherwise  

your birds sound like a flock of seagulls
on a beach where no one hears them scream

some women are nice and others thrice as nice

put down the wine you are not fine
i am the chaos that drives innovation
i am not a momentary event i am the truth 
the factor infinite and unknown
gives us the confirmation that we need 

a reminder that benefits drown 
when swinging from one branch to another 

the sun shines forth in redoubled beauty after rain

my condolences to all your thresholds
the tiger the rabbit and the pig
a petting zoo of your own making
the noisier the cage the better
the collected earnings of a bad receiver
i am not here i am where i've never gone before

your souvenir of me is a breath of fresh air
my memento of you an empty box given away with largesse

i'm fruitful with crazy it is not my loss.
