Infection Sublime
                 by Odin Roark

with his lone return
on this New York street
in middy’s humid heat
he did see shutters closed
behind antique glass
whose reflection reminded
he wasn’t born there
only grew up in...

Different moods, Different tunes
For guys different females
For women different dudes
Certain environments and multi-foods
Can cause the infection of a bad or a good mood
Unusual vibes, certain bribes, and sometimes what the doctor prescribes
Can have you feeling queasy inside or better yet bona fide
Everything that you encounter...

My heart right now so low.
Which makes it so easy for these words to flow.
A pain so deep that it cuts into my soul.
My soul so blackened like coal.
Im losing myself and all control.
But right now my fingers and mind work as a whole.
This thing...

The hardships of my life
Are like a clump of maggots digging through my skin
They are deep within...
How do I inspect them? Where do I begin
When I am in profound distress and sin?

I’m infected…but yet You healed me from all illnesses
I’m defected…but yet You cleanse me...

Tried to clear my throat, though you
didn't look at me; may be you
assumed it is infection;
aimed to get your attention.

That first look, that first connection
It sticks in your head
Creates a home in your memory;
Imagination running wild
Replaying the same moment over and over again;
That feeling in your stomach getting more intense by the second
The blood pumping through your veins
This is what you feel every time...

THE INFECTION
I have caught an infection,
it’s not a cold or flu
but if we come in contact
I'll pass it on to you.
Although I have a case of it 
I feel quite happy and well,
I caught it from a stranger
who she was I cannot tell.
I've passed it...

You say I'm a whore, father
But who created me?
You say I'm a prostitute to society
But who prostituted me?
You say I'm a perversion of beauty, father
But who perverted me?
You say I aborted your love, father
But who aborted me?
you say there's a darkness behind my eyes
But who...

         Don’t look for happiness outside yourself,

               Don’t use your eyes, feel your way.

As Rumple in blankets,
I vegetate in unfilled torpor, 
Blind enervation adrift among
Extinguished stars, among dark 
Torpid galaxies where I am a stranger.
I find only dead planets, windswept and barren,
Where molecules of a distant living past
Are vaguely recalled,
And where conceptions, 
Convictions all collapse.
Exhaustion is an avalanche...

It's my body, and I'll cry if I want to!
Lie if I want to!
Die if I want to!
You might die too if I come near you.

No vaccine pricks my skin. 
Absolute is my right 
to randomly infect another,
yes, randomly kill if necessary to preserve
my freedom!...

Warm June afternoon
The mirror I stare into
Shows my coldest fear

In the summer air
Dancing molecules of sweat
Await a new home

Its spikes like arrows
Our cells a shield of tissue
Waiting to be torn

Too little, too much
Sacs deflate while cells rush in
To stave infection

Thousands cram the tent
Muttering, howling voices
Spewing...

Don’t display, they will quarantine.
Runaway escape the quarantine.

•	Don’t worry, just a few days till it fades.
      This will keep your family and society safe.

I don’t believe in social distancing,
Solitude is something I hate!

•	A carrier infects all, around.

I sit by my window and watch them go by
The ones who refuse to stay at home and people wonder why
Most of them are foreign, some live here legally, others do not
The sun is out, today and it is hot
They stick together like leeches
Heading to...
