Memoir

Surface gestures mechanically derived,
Fascinating outcome of collaborating minds;
Easy anatomy if photographed.

It’s the tale that humbles the limbs to cool hypocrisy.
We look like snowflakes:
Iridescent glow & curiously shaped holes.

Direction un-foretold, yet, always leaning–
Animal inclination on the Great Highway:
I shift into drive & bravely close my eyes.

Blackout awakening – traditional stumble –
Gravitation back to my epiphany;
Once again I mold images & ponder

The reconstruction of the clay,
Take a step away & fire – now frozen
Are the affairs I lay before you…

Puzzled diagram of imminent move:
Reaction speed – deducted – here in the heartland
Dreaming up fear of what I could loose.


Appendix:
(Copious or starved, my muses stay loyal,
But I expect a seraphic death is in future order
For these words are dissenters in a mad army.)
