Long Misperceptions Poems

“SUMMER”



Where 
has Summer 
gone?

The world 
has lost 
Summer

Sweet 
little 
dream

missing 

all those other 
beautiful  
small dreams 

seen as toys
small and 
inconsequential 

casually tossed aside, 
disposable play,
things

pure shining lights
smiling eyes once so bright, 
switched off,

'neath...

Once within eternal time
of pre-LeftBrain domination,
I recall breathing in 
EarthMother's richly hued nutrition,
and this Other inhaling me,
purging lungs of misperceptions
that I was Her
any more or less than S/he was me.

We owned this communion together,
sacred breath...

dust had gathered on her many memories in outlines and heaps

had sheltered her from full on attacks of pain and self lacerations

the broom with razors attached right next to the end of the stick


inside lay...

I present unto you 
Unsub one and unsub two
Each looks as I do 
They think like me too
Unsub one will have some fun
Killing everyone that survived
Unsub two will handle the cops and news
As soon as...

Predictions work in twists of what makes life workable
High and often misconstrued by the dogma of science
Lies and damned lies and statistics for the insecure
Foes foretold surprise when the blindfolds shed masks
In the light of...

What is time? 
But a rotation of the planets, 
A love gone to the wind, 
Or a setting of the sun? 

Sometimes we can’t tell the day, 
But by the bottle we drink. 
Or the...

If we are not,
is this always the opposite of
when we are?

If we are negative,
is this sometimes appositionally
in creative tension with
when we are becoming more positive?

If we are a noticed absence
is this sometimes appositional
to we are...

Avast emotional gulf manifested; courtesy
series of unfortunate events; sundered
biologically accorded, cherished, enshrined
paternal bond; resultant dereliction defies,
justifies, ratifies...dissonance; unbearable
hindsight excoriates impropriety reviewing

dirty deeds done dirt cheap; impossible mission
to excise indelibly etched psychological
impacted repercussions upon mine fountainhead;
weighing...

the personification hurts the reasoning of an untrained apophenic

cacography ensues as the computer throws a spell check wobbly

the poet scribes on because everything is not what it seems to be

clouds become animals spirits aspirations and...

 King of kings and Lord of lords.

it was her normal state of affairs

she smelled the cacophony of blindness

touched an overflow of drought

listened to audible brightness

tasted a crescendo of palpations

until she was so out of tune

with everyone else’s senses

that fragmented perception was...

Angels observe our unfolding galaxy
Seemingly eternal to the human mind
Misperceptions they are superior in nature
For them like a temporary blink of a firefly
Their understanding of the prison we have created
And our ‘reality’ submerged in the...

Eyes in a half-opened gaze
Catching their breath after hacking up sea water
Reflections of the sun bouncing as they bob 

'To sing' clearly defined next to my name
I embodied melodic movements and spoke in song
I hypnotized...

MENTAL ILLNESS
Darker clouds appear more so near,
spirit sympathy and mind in empathy ponder,
thoughts a haze of past future days,
a mental candle aura, flickers 'n' wilts in wonder.

This shadowy sickness,
creep 'n' seep,
seeking capture, no rest nor...
