Thoughts
Each riddle (cause for, unheard) - drooled upon the glimpse of psyche,
playmate vie with the portent day, woken to
with heavy rind, a cloth
of circumstance –
is a zephyr trail, a bipolar dupe;
a rush of strawberries or the frugal vines of bed grapes.
We are angles bloated, presumed
controllers of our cortex –
trip wires and bobbin,
spun upon words that mean everything,
and silly goats flocked off
the hairs of our woollen tongues.
If a thought could keep you warm,
no warmth need ever be born –
upon the scars of solar dances, budding limbs and lips,
departing Piscean mistakes,
reaching for a hook to die, alarmed -
la petite mort –
nor score itself upon the homestead
of our birth,
a real wood, and the real wood burning,
a real match and the real scold turning
thought to present
and present back to lack of thought .
Need we a care?
For we create each world
from air .
Watch
the hair line escape,
tumbling without any discourse.
