The Colors of Humanity

Manacles suppress a beautiful mind
decayed by the stench of putrid bitterness
created long before Mr. Whitney
made you expendable

yet you loathe me
despite my relation to Harriet

uncle Tom was never relevant
nor did his cabin provide shelter
unto your bitterness
its wood burned food for thought

could one become a christian
to be born again
and return as an abolitionist
the absurdity of it astounds me

but chains will always bind us together
regardless of our ancestry

linked through the color of love
red hues splashed in anger
dipped in disdain
tainted by the past
we live to paint
the pictures shadows cast......



nice job, professor

Have you ever

bathed

in the feeling of empty..


over and over


until

gasping

you pull yourself out

clinging

to the edge


rebellious release






awesome

take off
clothes in rows
on a clothesline
drying is becoming

take off
mind ropes
drawing nooses
understanding doubt is not
understanding

now rows
mind clothes
lines and rows

some of the
clothespins broken
some lie on the cement
around doubt
reason is broken
a token for a dream
is not understanding

on the ships
the despairing jump in
blue into blue
i see no clothes
on the drowning
reason does not
become reason
understanding reason is not
understanding

lord the word
between the mean
confucius was too ugly
to eat a pineapple
yet he was ugly enough
to taste the sweet
and sour stuff

onto lao tzu
his name rhymes
with shoe
you cannot say blue
with lao tzu
he withdraws
without color
yet in town
he still wears
a shoe
and some say
a blue shoe
yet not lao tzu

if again
i could taste wind
a pineapple wind
i would not have ate
the taut pig
killed in the pen
of a blacksmith
it would not
have been
nirvana

i was born
worn in heaven
i was born
worn

i let
to get through
i let go

i lie in a pasture
stones on fire
barefoot in paradise

war and love
in the arch of wisdom
color my thoughts

in the sky
high and low
floating goats
walk away from god

in the starlight
i have light
when the star dies
the light lies
within

a metallic
immanent needle blood
losing i reason brain
soft raw metal wood i forget
wood burns deep
dont fuuck with me

in meadow worn
on a highway
meek shore immanent void
in wearied mouth
ovenless eyes broken
drum ribs resolved hunger
in the immanent young divine
dying
thirst open moon starving
they are throwing away
my body
again
and again

whiplashing in sky
a quart of cheap ale
some stale weed
i have belongings
in all
pressured into
the small the small
the small

i battle
three am wind
yet free yet free
cage in sky
cage in sky
chained in

i eat coal
i drink tar
i smell smell smell
i walk in circles
circling circles
i am bone man
bone and bone
i eat my flesh
i eat flesh my
burning grapes

so the hole
in coffin hole
in hole in coffin
sweeping flesh ties
sweeping ties in

stones i have
each stone pressuring
the small small small

im walking down broadway
an island girl
on crack
takes me back

a heroin man
passes out in the can
in the bums ruse
i reach under to grab
the sack
yet the police
enter

way up
on broadway hill
the whores
still sell hell
for twenty
their skin stuck
to bone
even the fat ones
have skeleton faces

open up
the defeat
of the downtown gnome
i am the compulsive blob
fuucking and drugging
my fifty souls

after the drawing sword
up and through the web of wind
now the drawing in

the drawing up
pointed through

what is up
what is down
what is through

sword over
sword under

in

hollowed wood frame
the plastic tragic
swallowed muse
swallowed muse

favor flavor
icon icon icon
never mine

savor flavor
skin
icon icon icon
never mine

lady blue
i write shadow
poem

i have battle
ribbons in inferno

oh kindred ghost
i write gray words
unspoken

give me
your scarlet vein
flood life giver

afterkind spills
purple river
words broken

let us lie
in the pasture woven
in the dream green shadow
poem unknown

me amble
spirit goose
rushing faith
words become

amber meaning
shadows bleed
pure rainbow
poem unreason
yet words
hope
