Mind Alchemy

the mind is a dark knot like bones cracked in violent love when suddenly touched by sight ignite into light I am how the sun says I am cut in ribbons of blood clarity in scars cold to the touch held in crude earth flesh and memory the only thing left the sea in me - mind and body drift caught in the breath where blooms the desert coral, a Lacanian echo… “I think where I am not therefore I am where I do not think” so, I am not where I think I think where I am not (I think) upon the haze the wilting horizon unwraps in red rapture the dull entwine of being in the here not here but there…with me but where…I be a dark knot to unwind tangle thought deep grind storm caught soul blind juggernaut

Seems you wish to be somewhere else- "violent love"- you wish to be with someone else but your mind won't allow it? Heavy, deep.... beautiful
