Damn the Ease

If she were ever to walk
I'd give her fingers and lanterns to taste

Yet this is not time to bathe
I seize the day by preaching danger

by giving entrails their due contortions

Heavens arise
let the dreams figure their own apprentices
give the clarinet-voiced whips more pleasure

Musings
prayers multiplied, copied
en masse

formal appeasals, satisfy my breathren
satisfy my explorations

And if the Eastern mud ever becomes intolerable
shoots about plays
of eager dismissals

she will abide to hand back my wrenches

No cause for affirmation
the actions remain detrimental

Satisfy me, for fuck sake

  1. It's kinda a calling out on myself, saying that I should be more active in creating something rather than hoping for it. I think that is a rather common aspect of human nature, yet perhaps understanding that isn't.

    So the "she," I guess, is a muse, and instead of following her, I'm going to get into the ground and get dirty. But then, I kinda start to mock the muse and end up needing her again. Hmmm.

    Something like that.
