Tango de la Materia, No. 89, Epitome No. 8

The ephemeral disgust of an Eastern accent

Denotes a certain preparation for death

That I find irresistibly attractive

As we come to winter

We will come to find solitude

The poetry turned dry in my mouth

Waiting for the bleary eyed sunset to pass

This lovely October falling

Toward her quite so open ear

And silent tongue

As vast as the ocean

Where my words do sail upon

Echoing ineffable

Inaudible she reaches to respond

A softening breath

As only to softly pass on goodbye

Close the sea we weave interstices

Having wept so god forsaken long

There is no more sadness to softly mumble

The shrilling screech of the violin to halt

As the child has passed a lullaby

Out a muffled weary song

And passed away

A dreamer in the veil of life we carry on

Despondent

A ruse to chaos to justify the order

Logic numbing steady materia

Chameleons to rationality

Need not carry discourse

In order to justly silent agree

Respect and carry on encompassing

The mathematization of emotion

(A static/asexual) mask to (feign/deny)

To don this hallows’ eve

All becoming

Honing in on thy prey

The violin is the child

Hanging in the gallery

The connoisseur (a-sexual) predator

Longing for her daughter

Having drowned so innocently

In the ceremony of our reason

A baby girl

Protector of humanity

Emotion found its logic

In the final throes of a fuck

And denied it

Tossed it to the (faint/feigned) howls of lust

And I felt the flutter of the pigeons

Taking flight behind my stride

Like angels I need not turn back to sea

As I can sense the wild eyes

Already staring out of thine

And I must walk my steady course

Until my passions take to flight

Having run reiterations dry

Despite the choice we make

We are committing to a life quite naked

THERE IS NO REASON NOT TO FOLLOW THY HEART

There is no logic in denying emotion

We bare our love on (a-cross) abreast

Wishing good night our children slumbering

Buried quite

Within our souls

Though having run our dire course

Is she waiting for me still?

Or am I lest a mere

Still wishing for her ghostly?

Having offered sacrifice of love

The child of thy heart

A fool to his stubborn pride

And forcing the structure closed

Is there anyone listening at all at all?

I’m crying out for help!

I’m dying all the time


My child my spirit

Listen well to my rhetorical soul

As ’tis the shell thee will grow into

Come to humbly know

Thy solitude has ripened

Have been plucked up on the winds

And will sail on off to sea

Upon where thy’ll be thrown

Before the gods dancing high in crest

The sparkling of the water

Perched to swim to coast

Thy swells collapsing thee

All I want the salty air

To whisper to my spirit

That all is right in the world

That my being will be a bountiful echo

In the vast reiterations of time

And the discord of my intellect

Will be sewn tight

Sweetly done

Weaving blind a tapestry of abyss

In the pigments of a dusty shelf

The pathological disturbances

And when the many rivers of thy tongue run dry

Remember that an angel sent thee here to suffer thirst

In order rapture might be thine to scavenge

And for the sake of thy posterity

My angel of a child

I’ve conceived of thee in discord

And before I can quite grab my hold

I can sense the vultures

Feel the tug of wild shores

This life is a desert

A boundless ocean floor

And the ticks of time will stretch unfathomable
As the measure runs indiscreet

Ah the grandiose of love

Is thy child prostrate at thy feet

The mane on a moonless night

And every fasting moment

Masters an eclipse of spirit

Thy child dearest passing on
