flounder in fictional field
—squeals and squeaks
Whimpers and growls
Sylphic swaying,
of flames spewing,
inwardly throbbing
of my nostril
lobotomized cosmic orbs.
scent of cinnamon
and coral on a rosary
interlaced of aurulent rimes.
Shrouded your burgundy &
coniferous ravines
loop of vitality
& unbearable redemption
in spanning eons,
ineffable wonder cradled
by melodic hums and buzzes
of lazy heat
and whistles of pitches
of endless hymns
echoes of choral chants
sung by soloists.
black ravens croaking,
like peals of doom
dewy allelomorphs
with waft-aloft wings
angels of ethereal whisper
of thunder,
that rang deafeningly
through the crevices,
of anodal motion
scurrilous loci
modeled as diploid.

Cars are the wind on the streets
semi-truck wheels shriek thunder,
rain shatters against stone and brick walls
on dusty roads, oak trees fence with twigs—
wushu wooden clatters.
Dreadful arrays of dryads
azure and amethyst gossamer haze,
sleek, silken strikes gist an opera of wisteria,
as they sway to silver breeze's sibilant rustles.
They chant lullabies in lyrical lilts of hued iridescence,
of hearth and opals back to my scarlet nest.
Angelus silver trills, the sylphic sways of pure rays,
Coral rosary—incense strands of aurulent rimes
hum, endless hymns echo as choral evensong
alleluias softly peal out—doves with wet eyes
that drift upward on whispery—ethereal wings.
Ocean's plea emerges from apothic abyss,
a voice conveys the core of faxed shores and stars,
with earth and wind in a solemn tone.
A cosmic biography—in loud squeals and sighs
sea vernacular hinges on nature's lasting awe.
Breath goes to fog—snow melts into puddles—rain returns,
a china-white grave—encases the deceased deer,
before thawing in the morning—icy skin lies frozen.
An eerie distance holds my hand in a purifying blizzard.

O Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva !
Thou are wondrous beyond compare,
August is your ethereal appearance,
Aurulent is your demeanor,
Great are your vows and lyrical is
Your Lyre of Dharma
Which you play with grace,
Adorning the Samsara with
Harmonious sounds of Dharma,
Thou are mercy embodied,
The shade of grace for all beings,
The light of your pearl mounts up to the Heavens
And your golden khakkhara shatters the gates of Hell!
Guiding beings mired in Gordian knot of karma
To bow before the Nine Blossom Dais of the Buddha,
Thou are the Beacon of Light for those in perdition,
The one who pardons and blesses,
Honored as the Great Peak of Nine Blossoms,
Namo Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva!
Namo Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva!
Namo Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva!
