Poetica
Hey! Look at me, I'm a Poem!
my words rhyme with my tongue
with lips summoning secret séance scribblings
from upper palate delights while my teeth scalpel
saturnine ecstasies from mammock reservoirs of
poor pouring pores like promethean cantation preferences,
quickly bypassing undisturbed milieus of voluble blatherskite
pre-recognized by M—-ass appeal of soul-less, regressive expression.
Rather look to creating poetic serenity. Dig deep, ride low, let go--so words
flow from that undiscovered, untapped antisocial well spring of predictive,
b-o-r-i-n-g, literary ire. Release yourself from that bereft homemade fixfax
by growing a vocabulary worthy of sensation. Scrawl from a freak show POV
drink the gypsy nectar of lifes in lived, love languished tirades left, right that free
you from your alphabetic coma dungeon--a passive nulled nodule sadly
furnished brain cell--full of nonsense letters-keeping you yonder linked to your
current, obsequious conformity evaluating form, content, rules, structure--all alien to beautiful thoughts on self paper, signedsealed, post delivered to your awaiting tombstone epitaph, with cool comprehension that we as poets suffer a left induced domesticated social dysplasia of the write hand. Bewareness.
