Equinox

Saturday breakfast comfort
The luxury of masticating at leisure
Fogged windows and eyes urge a return
Yawning into dreamscapes
Mashed up hornets nests of
Creatively firing synaptic crevasses
Contemplating our daily encounters
Minotauring each moment into
Beast-headed remembrances of nothingness

Full stop upon each uniquely awkward aspect
Dissecting it into truth
Purple cauliflower eyes transfixed upon
Orange crush moonlight cresting over
Blue sky birthday cakes rowed by
Magenta candles serving as posts
For the heads of all who have died before you

This state in-between often provides
More reality than the extremes of awake and asleep
We are chemically dependent beings
Cresting on our biochemical half-truths
All praise due to Serotonin and Her holy saints
Eager to alter our dosage, in/out of a focused anything
Doors revolving in updrafts of our sanity’s precipice

Chemically fueled on our own volition
Uppers/downers/ragers/muters hover like mobiles
Elevator binary logic guides our direction
Mouths/lungs/veins agape for the heralded return
Yearning to dawn our beast-headed ceremonial realities
Affect triumphs over effect
Only immediacy matters now, until forever’s black
Devours our body in a sweet gulp
Champion over perception

13 E

Sick-gutted with timidity
  Half-emptied values ooze on floorboards
Carpet tred down with past and exodus

We have never been more apart
  Occupying worlds incapable of transmutation
Summer-Winter dynamism, we slush all around us
  Such hopes for the other yield fields of blossomed disappointment

You are all I cannot hold known
  I am the ‘he’ you do not foster prudent
Standoff armrest jockeying, heavy-sighed
  Lamentations cast at fate’s deaf ears, unapologetic

Be not real
  Be not here
    Be not me
      Be not we

All before takeoff
