I remember Africa
A skeletal footprint
Awakening humanity
To Earth
Her
Being
Mater
selflessness is the father of human survival
a feathered ear
upwards
a hummed prayer
soars without me

homo-
erect,
explorations into same
sex soundings,
flourishings, embellishments
a blip into sonic humanity, striking
the most sensitive chord
western civility estranged
captivity in genital awareness
a rough and tumble, hide
and seek gathering
pushing into skin
draped exotic
law, broken by
caress and
gentle magic,
winning over
the ravaged tragedy
of attraction,
a sounding
for the war
on sex

and not leading, trying, attempting,
nor bluntly giving, allowing or assuming,
yet to leave an ear, as offering, sacrificial listening,
to give an ear that attached a host
lets down the body into the cured mammal's coat,
whose friendship bore a spiritual communion
to dash human isolation into a silent greeting with nature
in even breath,
to leave that altar, as it survives within us
a space through which a command may pass,
one totally absorptive and proud as the enthroned mythic law,
expressed from the bearded name
whose secret existence frightens no one
its instantaneous insignificance is to be always present,
in the moment and never born nor witnessed by any thing manifest,
that whispered from a most minute creation,
a passing glut forgotten by the entire visible universe,
only to return through a remembering heard in voiceless rhythm,
to create from nothing!
an identity beyond the mimicking mold,
shaped by more hands.

I drank in the stupor
10:20
|
|||
I drank in the stupor of cacophonous snow
blind midnight blood horrors
till dawn's resurrected weed drawn beyond -
hoarse, grotesque awe,
forever naming the ingrained hosts of cemetery brooding
under fine wintry lights,
the ancient melancholic seed
planted woodland northeast, Georgia to Maine,
climactic conflicts astir amid native rumors
climbing upward into the dimming roosts' long call
granting palm wishes in the Mexican eyeball drool
on John Lennon street fair-minded
donating beautiful soundless hearts
through world music motion
of our one universal language emotion
and the commonly evolved ground broken through violent social awareness
meant to survive generations
with the traumatic blessing of the great earthly groan
from
MA, virgin, temptress,
my Kuan Yin

roaming to sacrifice

memories
and the aftermath of a wordless crisis
vagaries of mind bound by geographic boom
into the obscured continental pole
driven
estranged to unknown homes
sacrificed to roaming

a distant, dry flame
turning over the ashes of the unnamed
fallen in pits
beware, the presidential return
breeding with genocidal urns
loving the tirades that sink oceans
into Charybdis swarms
alone, centered by intoxication and my forlorn host
brother, in demise
a lonesome paradox in disguise
read and weep, as the ancients' rowing
cabins alight with pages
in the eyes of warring children
who cry in blood
and tear from the sod with teeth, cracked
amid the skeleton earth, war torn
greed, strapped aimlessly to the butterfly
home bearing Trotskyan steeds
in the fight to bring back wealth
to the lands of Zapatista
covered with stark, oppressive emotion
and chained, now
to the oriental rug

celebrating her love
in an instantaneous flash, begging at the feet of an all-encompassing Mother
at the breast, featureless nipple, dropped
into the fornicating mouth
purple with newborn fear
loosening the strung demons
frequenting with a mental fine
earned through saturated yesterdays and plagued hideaways
lonesome distress in this unshakable trespass
into the inter-racial fallout
shelter, my only body
in union with earthly desire transcended
in the felt Lust
buns eaten and craved
low
follicles broken to her anal rash
grunting in forgotten praise
for reason and being
whose eyes prostituted Love
into the ever-waking burn
a forsaken need
swollen whole and dreaming in phrases of paranoia
the random blessing falling on her forehead
resting free the cyclic name

Rusty Kjarvik Brooklyn, New York
My ancestors are from the lands in and around what is now Norway, Poland, Germany and Greece. They lived above the Arctic Circle, spoke Yiddish, were Romaniote Greek, English settlers during the revolutionary war of America, and from Germany pioneered in 19th century Alberta, Canada where they also took Blackfoot names. They were buried in religious fame; and so I also go by Menachem ben Asser. ... more
