ALOUD, In Camera Lucida

http://interviewsaloud.com/2011/12/24/in-camera-lucida-a-poem-by-jason-greendyk/

Wishing you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year 2012! I look forward to more interviews, more fateful encounters and more unexpected turns. In the meantime, enjoy your break as I will and see you all in a couple of weeks. Concluding 2011, I leave you in the intricate hands of Jason GREENDYK and his poem In Camera Lucida.

The deepest arc
Free of care and light of heart
Binary allosensuality
As time fades on in bourrée pace
The differences blend
The opposition confesses its counterpoint
Counterfactual reticence
And we lean to measure
The meniscus of our innocent starts
Childhood the anacrusis of our epitaph
Yes in the ceremony of our innocence
Her presence was hanging like a chandelier
An open floor in a new house of the nomadic moment
Flickering candela
Nová, Novia
Nová vlna
She was there in spirit
The festival of light reiterated in memoriam
In camera lucida
The chambers of the intellect
On the guiding star of some deep and endless emotion
Some invisible constellation
Corazonamiento
Leads the dance in brief bursts of light
Of color
A turquoise stone
Enclosed in the walls of a troubled spirit
A tormented soul
A gruesome body politic
In a forced Viennese waltz
Absent of hesitations
Collapsing on the open floor
And rise and rise again
Charms scattering the shadows
An ontological intoxication
The digital mutilation of the musica poetica
Once an intellectual perfection
The violin concerto now a shrill and stuttering semblance
Of seas’ minor
Asymbolic psychology in asexual high
Resounding in the chaos of our steps
Somehow so light yet waited on
Changing partners on the floor
The opening of hearts
Cynical, apathetic
And all the more in love
Sweet nothings to the ears of a musing night
Swimming towards Venera on the clearing golden aura
Lucifer the morning star at the appearance of first light
Gave the name of inspiration to the goddess’
Angel falling latter
She drove a wealthy spear rich into thy heart
An aortic grove fording the many rivers of once ’fore
And the oaks of wisdom weeping happiness
Inmaculada conmemoración
Americano tragedy
Carried like another day
As after all and all
Love is mere a whisper woke
That may we proper cultivate
To grow and grow and grow
Into a neverending poem
La concepción de la vida nueva
A new house to paint the walls
