Distances
by Michael R. Burch
There is a small cleanness about her,
as though she has always just been washed,

Sick Art
"Sick Art"
I walk the streets
still and quiet
I do not lie

what the heart belies
pickled kidneys

of my former self
ears lent to hear
the sweet music
of the sounds so fraught
caught up...

An Anxiously Anticipated EventDear John,
All day
yesterday
I loaded up with a cascading river
of mixed anxiety and anticipation
about what to safely and kindly,
transparently and vulnerably
compassionately, so non-violently, share,
what to communicate;
Which narrative tributaries to choose
within this vast spacetime stream
of choices
directions
felt depressions...

Perfect Love, Optimal LifePerfect love is perfection,
it is rare,
if such love exists at all
it must thrive beyond boundaries of my own experience
either receiving,
or giving.
Could this perfection of synergetic harmony and confluence
we have grown to love as love itself

God's Zen VoiceOnce upon this time
I was listening to the Christian Fathers
retell traditional stories
of God's election and predestination.
Predestination
is like being born into royalty,
power,
privileges of humane Earth's regenerative grace.
Election is more democratic.
Selection based on God's vote for mercy,
apparently,
because...

I ripped the pages of
that tired old story
from the heart, a body of work
buried the misdiagnosed slanders
then wiped their mouths
with the back of my spoon

Belles Lettres
“belles lettres”
It’s a slow drifting
off, that moment
before you dive
into the dark
you surface
to find a boat
surrounded by
shining pearls,
Styx, a mirror
reflecting
otherworldly stars
hypnotic,
you trail
your long
pale slender fingers

Yet I Remain FaithfulFilthy and foul I found you,
garnished in grime,
drenched in dust,
polluted in your own putrid blood,
orphaned, alone, helpless.

to let you live.
As you came...
