Anacoluthon Knights

i can never tell you how displeased readers   
   are by that position    the singular 
moment when nothing makes any sense
to them at all  but only to a few brilliant pebbles
that soar across the night canvas unknown
 to the dullards of academia
  it is the ONLY reason 
i write;   to express self to those very few 
who HEAR ME.

  the rest are noise and there is no 
time for wasting one's artistry on rigid brains
   and stiff necked human-geese.
Then again, my imagination never demands
 an audience of understanding but more
 of an emotional receptivity.
 
  A slumbering shadowy cloud-vignette
     seeping from  a tormented mind onto
   freshly sliced paper cuts.  

This is the color red screaming in a dying ink stroke.
  All inside of me is all i have.  The 'be careful' took
leave upon wings last dreaming evening of reprieve |
   a mind wondering if wondering is real
  to show me is love if upon the wind of life and how 
is lovely sitting upon a window sill while being
productive (at the sink doing dishes) 
   if more is heavier than thought
then more is the anchor of all tears
 /to tell do please : what imagination never demands
-- that audience of understanding.

just tears.
