fall awake

your stellar green motions lift the corners of my mouth
turn them unpside down (which is to say
right side up)
and i realize the upside of down isn't so far off from on.
and your thoughts are long and curly and shine
like rusty nails. i like the authenticity.

ha

laughter.
necessity.
floating music.
breaking sun sealed secrets
tightened in your little layered lungs
that exhaust and perfume when performed

society is the stretching skin of the unfolding, unchanging molecular
make - up of matching marching meltingpots.

there's a tree delivering bones to the worthy souls
about its trunk
and spouting sap at those between here and there

but i only taste when the tone matchs your breath
and i see the vibrations of your heart in your tongue;
open wide and wide open to those delicate yesterday turnovers:
tasty twisting tales of youth and imagination hiding in shadows
until swallowed soulfully and the belly bloats with innocence.

all those farther moments
that lurk from under the bed and grab my ankle when
wandering through a cold breezy afternoon: stale

but i close my eyes to such a blaze

refocus

center

travel and  unravel in mind melds with flowering
gypsies from the center of the universe where the
image of home becomes the new alien taste on my lips

that i tend to fall awake to

Please tell me what you think

    Very Enjoyable

    You have some really neat metaphors in this poem. Shines like rusty nails, I really liked that one. The vibrations of your heart in your tongue= beautiful. Strong finish, great poem.

    Beautiful. The beginning feels both fractured and fluid and once, and I like it. I think it flows very well and paints a very vivid image.
