Freeway of Escape

In this era of experimentation,
unforeseen boulders form 
in the road of progress.

Low interest rates
encourage the right hand to invest,
while the left speculates unnoticed.

Governments spend money before the ink dries,
purchasing assets, forcing lines on economic charts,
following virgin protocols.

Skewed markets seem normal,
kurtosis no longer matters
in this 21st century laboratory.

Social scientists join the parade
with shutdown demands
to end a pandemic.

Boulders become barriers,
traffic crawls,
and anxiety replaces speed.

Fuel runs low,
compensated by steep descent
into a mist blocking the destination.

No one knows where this new turnpike,
with untested exits and unmarked lanes goes,
but drivers follow large road signs overhead.

Wisdom

A candle burning in a peaceful and tranquil state,
In its flicker, reflect on past and present, successes and mistakes,
In its glow, absorb the radiations of actions and thoughts,
With it light many candles, share the wisdom in its pure and powerful state.

As a child, I imitated elders,
Parents words of wisdom still dictate my life,
Speak words which does not hurt others,
Appreciate good in others,
Knowledge teaches, Wisdom listens.

Gather some wisdom thru experimentation,
Explore new ideas and bold imaginations,
Help solve past problems, and create new hope for the future,
It is a wisdom gained and never denied.

Ready For the Close-Up

hello,
i am ready to be seen now
the bush shield is scabbing over

hello,
i am ready to explore now
the implantation fever is breaking

hello,
i am ready for all roads now
the butterflies with upset stomachs are now fully coated

hello,
i am ready to erase all the question marks now
the punctuation pacification has now been adequately bypassed

i am shaking the hand of all with the welcome mat smile
the tour guides of this new chapter threw away my bookmark collection
a gentle breeze blows as i take full responsibility for the previous abstract art i created
now comprehension is like the calming sound of a flowing water from a spring in the country
i skip rocks like a multiple choice inquiry and eagerly await the destination of the reply vie effervescent experimentation
this circle will not be broken this time....because THIS TIME GOD IS FULLY INVOLVED....

When it came to love
I had no real plan
I know I wanted to connect in an intimate way
with experimentation and playfulness

I was short on experience
there was a pandemic
I’d had few ‘at-bats’
that’s a sports metaphor

Much of it seemed surreal and abstract
like we’d entered another realm of everyday places
there was a subtle unpredictability
that was unfiltered, instinctive and unapologetically unhinged

freedom permeated every element
still, our collaboration allowed for honest conversation
I remember asking, “What are we doing?”
Thinking back, It underlined how vastly different our two experiences were

Back Again

A hundred years from now
or in the next moment
I will be dead, gone and back.

Not this 'I' with its sticky ego
gumming up the works;
forever tinkering, jury-rigging
a mental machinery
that was always poorly designed.

Most likely, baby me, is already out
of the chimeric soup,
he or she probably
made of spare parts also.

Are we are all variants
created in a biological laboratory
purposely put together flawed,
'try outs' tested
to see what works best?

Constant experimentation is important.
Reincarnation but an instant
then we are out the door once more
clanking around

trying to look normal
but we won't know 'normal'
until we find it.

Pretending can be a bold form of experimentation
and inventiveness. In pretending joy or happiness,
we may discover or enhance our capacity for it.

Harriet Lerner

Lord Leofric:  The waging of war is man’s affair
Lady Godiva: Then wage war in your way, M’Lord,
                       and I’ll wage war in mine

Movie, Lady Godiva of Coventry  (1955)


MASQUERADE

Quivers the man traversing the icescape.
Queen dominates the saddle with her eyes.
Size five, bare, narrow feet melt snowy floor.
Masquerade - his wife dreamy in disguise.
Flesh, smooth as ice rink, after zamboni.
Warm hearth behind the seven veils of d’sire.
Godiva tresses descend to her knees.
Bright red lips, parting flames, a flute of fire.
Singes where cherry makes contact...shivers
and moans like Winter Nor’easter through trees.
Memories malleable — tongue to ink.
Lobe, neck, thighs surrender to cold night tease.
Quiet warmth underneath the satin sheets.
His eyes wide open - concedes his defeat.

Not Yet

I do not love you
I love possibilities
Ideas
Creativity 
Abstracts over absolutes
Exploration 
Experimentation
Who we might be
who we could be
theoretically
if certain variables
would happen to be true
If in your presence 
I found this veil
obstructing my vision
lifted from my eyes
able to see 
colors once again
bold and bright
instead of muted hues
If we were to discover
synchronicity of
our energy in
pursuing our endeavors 
If not only my words
but the heart beating 
behind them mattered to you
I don’t seek perfection
but maybe you do
Perhaps that’s the problem
I don’t love you

Backwards Spells of FEAR Part I

so easy to fall, and so hard to break free

somehow as a child I knew
it was as if they knew my name before I had a clue
at 10 reading books about orphans 
free from the church
the dignity of evil
nuns silently brought

the battle of addiction began without meaning
images crept into my head at ten
child orphans hooked on opiates
living on the street homeless
but somehow free

my time as a child skipped over
teen experimentation
no social life
and straight into motherhood

the first time I ran from myself

9 months of being a teen
happy, unknowing

thrown straight into postpartum trauma
with a child of an older man
who knew everything
gaslight dreams flickering 
fading with every press
morphine drip, and 3 months asleep
surgical birth 

I didn't hear her cries
asleep she was taken
my ship was sinking
bonds breaking silence
anger grew like a cancer

hurricane spiraling within
my fist at the end of the funnel
ready to blow 
a target in the darkness
floating on hope
circled by the unseen voices

whispering my doom 
seven years of a precious life
lost to me
“end it all”
“leave it all behind”

ashamed, grasping at threads

death refused to take me
shouting “fight with patience”
through the thick 
the echoes lightyears away from my ears

20 years locked up as grown child
mentally fatigued
10 more years locked up in the standards
of what society calls marriage
an adult thing to do

pleading for help 
from grandmother's psychology degree
with the words
“keep your mouth shut for your daughter's sake,
she needs both her parents”

I ran a 2nd time

chained to my abusers
demon bound chasing
with overbearing shouts
30 missed calls in a row
shaming me, nothing was ever the right thing
couldn't have me, so stole all that they could
and the only child I ever held

10 years of tears
angry and depressed
hating every new day
afraid of happiness
dreaming of death
unable to save my child
from barely escaping repeated
suicide attempts

kept away
stayed away
threatened by his constant
demanding
civil servants to tell me
no one could help
without a proper court installed judgment
hellraiser dug the chains in deep

waiting for me to succeed to the pain
that kept my nervous system alight with fire
