Angel Wings

I slide a pen against the pages ‘til abilities are honed

beyond the blades of razors paper cuts can touch the bone

angel dust is never shown because of heaven’s housekeeping

so I don’t know what they’re smoking since the name is misleading but

whatever imaginary hand touches creativity

I’m thankful for the fingerprints that land in my vicinity

I do know for a fact that the bats in the belfries

are thankful every time I go to write because it helps me

come to healthy inspiration, looking out the window

with the hazel-painted glass stained the day they built this temple

if the pencil tips beyond an angle parallel to therapy the scribbling breaks the glass and grains are cast upon the balcony

when angels pass in front of me the shutter speed changes the double takes are just a way to conversate amazement

if I could make this poetry as beautiful as some of you, I’d write until the world is beyond a paper shortage

tips would be eroded to needlepoint precision givin’ blackened gel injections of WallyJac’s enjoyment

I’d hang my inspiration over the door so if you enter let my soul embrace you focus let the present moment kiss you

your interest is formally more than a reward for me wipe your reservations on the welcome mat of dormancy

as far as I’m concerned the spoken work is (border) sorcery a forum where the gods are born performing art accordingly

casting spells making sure the letters are in order WallyJac the foreign soldier, thermos full of orange soda

bonded to the homestead, anomaly to family, finding liberation in the sock the master handed me

time’s the imitation witness ordering the images vacantly expressing limitations with our ignorance

& when it gets late I lay some life into the mirror

a time-stamped capsule of any given second

any pen that hits the record reflects a moment that had molded me

the past becomes nearer, paragraphs grow in potency

pieces of me live in every word ever written

color pours immortal over tapestries of language

the captioning is ageless,

evading timetables

weightless

as the fantasies fighting for control of me

the pen eventually runs dry with fluid ounces absent the cursive bends have ended when the riverbed’s a casket

bask in life’s potential energy, mobilized by purpose expression is the universal method to convert it

I’m a power surge that’s evidence of human supernovas, blood flowin through my veins at the speed of light I’m radiant

The mind remains so advanced it’s a waste of time explaining it

My thoughts are food to higher gods, breath is what they pay me with

Angels sit and dangle fishing lines of inspiration

Briared vines of mind invasion move adjacent to the stream of conscious waters flowing gracious on accomplished author’s brains &

all this plays a role in what I’m writing on the pages

The strokes will never soften though I’m out of space for writing

I’ve siphoned each remaining piece of creative speech for rhyming

Sliding pens against the pages northeast to southwest without questioning how many sheets are left to spread a melody

the last page is one thing but writer’s block would be the death of me

my destiny is painted pixilated over angel wings so when they fly together you can see where life is taking me

I’m thankful for the vacancies that challenge my expansion

The gaps within my spirit that illuminate reflection

The passion keeps me documenting any living instant

I draft a paragraph connecting pleasure with commitment

potent to the bone yet poetic to the fiber I’m a writer for the point of never losing what has made me

embracing what defines me ever-changing understanding captivated daily

She’s

She makes dreams out of the day and puts hope into tomorrow

eliminates my sorrow

makes crumbs for me to follow

Doesn’t borrow, won’t abuse and loves the views of Old Dominion

starlight in her fingertips

there’s heaven in her vision

Twice as nice as what I wanted, more than I’ve afforded

undetected, unrecorded how she walks into my morning

Stepped in through my door amazed, adorned in her infectious ways,

her gaze remains incurable, in other words adorable

She holds the moonlight in her eyes and carries sunlight in her pocket

(I’ve) seen our fates in deeper space but keep her face within a locket

She’s the topic of discussion, causes rapid heart percussion,

she’s the button on my elevator taking me to rooftops

my path along the river stepping over roots and loose rocks

to balance on the tracks and leave a quarter for the crushing

She’s a fire in the works, my desire for the future

any injuries – the suture,     my attire if it suits her,

She’s my hot exotic counterpart, the mile to my kilometer

the glass of milk I’m dying for, I’m drinking every drop of her

She’s popular, a lot to love, my drug and my addictive vice

my afternoon delight, my leading purpose for the gift of sight

My grip on life to seize the day

my kryptonite when she’s away

My favorite thing to intertwine

my spinach when it’s dinner time

My center line, my Greenwich prime, her love divine inside me

my day defined within her eyes, the sun that rises guides me

She walks into the room and steals the rug from underneath me

the oxygen from out me, she’s the one I love to squeeze me

She smiles of silver with a heart of gold, her body bronze and glowing

holds the planet in her hands, showing magic in a glance,

going fast without a chance of ever getting off or slowing.

These summer nights are still oh how I’m swept with warm effusion
Chatter bugs envelope residents to charm communion
Not a whisper in the bushes gasses linger breathing lightly
Moments blister in their humid silence singing nightly
The sonorous quietude implies a beauty restless
bird feathers rustle adding prattle to the guest list
a momentary sequencing relinquishing involvement
of an interlocked allotment, oxygen dissolved in solvent
a crinkled bark, a scruffy brick,
a trickling brooke, imagine bliss,
a seated squirrel, a wagging leaf
a rattling pluralistic matting of a million currencies
across the southern strings a star extinguishes its sense of gleam
shining ’til its finished giving life to things around me

This World

This world seems so big
but really is so small.
I can reach the other side of it with only my phone.
But I cannot make the person I want appear in front of me.
The space around me feels larger than the sky with its endless reaches.
Winds stream through my soul and chill my sense of peace.
Like trying to hold a cloud or capture a ray of the sun, so will go on my desires.
But not my dreams.
The height of this boundless, empty box is only so lonely because I have known such fulfillment.
I can only know the longing of a hundred heartaches because I have felt the joy of a thousand lovers.
Not a heart strapped in chains but one free to soar.
Though minutes pass like days I keep tight to the string that connects us.
No element of time or distance can sway the path from where our hearts swing.
To kick your feet up and feel the excitement of the ride is why the Earth turns.
It moves for us so that we might live in its currents.
To feel the tides against our feet under the shine of a sugar moon.
To unite in harmony with two souls that exist as one.
To dream.
Explore.
To laugh in each other’s arms like children in the Summer.
This world is so big,
but together
we are even bigger.

My spirit scoffs at this condition
‘Puh!’
This soft cloth that I’ve been draped in is ready to be shed
I look down, look up,
Look left, look… Well, ‘try’ to look right as much as I can
I forget what’s over there
I retreat to my blessings
My soul wants to shribble but I know it’s set and ready
Transcendence
My return
My travel
I’m ready to connect to the stars and the moons
I’m ready to rejoin the scriptures
My body is getting weaker so it can’t hold me to this plane much longer
It’s letting me go so I can move on
I’m light-headed and weak
Perhaps the part of me that’s reaching out
the spectral fingers sprawling up, uncurling towards the heavens
Maybe these are the sensations of becoming part of the Greater once again
I don’t remember this
But I know
I know everyone coming around doesn’t see it
But I’m going home
I’m okay
I see you
I love you too
But I’m fine
I’m more than fine
I’m going home

The worlds collided
silent
violent
very fabric of our time ignited
torn like children riot minded kids that Malachi divided
Pageantry of casualties, collamities in Amnitty
portals in the city, mortal families in Albany
global oval fallacies fanning the reaction
endothermic murder perm-nent subversive cursive regiment
sure rehearsed in detriment
an excellency action
the spinning posi traction over-acted
alpha dominance
out of balance damage mounted talents to its prominence
polar caps to magma, gravitational and fire swept
explosive moment jet kinetic faster than the timer kept
evap-orated glaciers cirroSTRATus zero chance acidity
celestial confessional for the planet’s scant morbidity
submissive to the rhythms driven universal pulse
engulfed in bulk beyond the strength of Hulk I sulk in lost confessionals that cuneiform results
explosion polka dots the heavens fell in synchronicity
towards the largest scheduled unpredictable atrocity
the pearls combined to form a bi-unit of ferocity
due to cosmic forces their velocity was promising
comprised of masses’ massive mass momentum distant gunning dart
powerful confliction with the biggest running start
to contradicting evolution useless sense of energy
to deconstruct the progress of infinite lives they’ve given me
the ricochet was sick and stretched a million years of light away
the outer most of galaxies had just a moment of delay
I pray the angels intersect inject themselves, what the Hell they for?
anomalies directed to correct the shit they billed me for
the twisting core created life and lightning struck the center
self-adjustments stole the life from us
and made it something better

Daily Mission

As the dark silk of night melts across my blue horizon the cooler skies endrenched in blackened moments takes its grip to pull the drapen wholeness covering the openness recovering the still of night encumbering my being whole when all is told I like the soul discovery.

I stand diversity aware beyond the color scheme of panda bears
and plan to pair my findings with a fully loaded spectrum
Once addressed I’m sure the faded soul can qualify complexion
and satisfy connection where the painted eyes are destined
I’ll follow autumn’s yawning casting shadows on my arbors
Words like falling leaves abound but only caught by authors
A solem phrase in moonlight floating silently on water
Eclipsed in centered space, adrift on lillypads that wander
Replenish energy reserves by laying still and motionless
Have angels on perimeter, patronum to my openness
I’m to the moon & over, cows follow my trajectory
expectedly I question if the universe selected me
I speak in morse code tapped in tides and white spray
Use lunar cycles guiding me through night to find day
I’ll intervene divinely turn square worlds spherical
wave to you through ocean currents interpreting a miracle

Released

when I walk this route without you it’s surprising I enjoy it
’cause I stumble over technique and lower my performance,
so maybe it’s the step itself and not the larger measure that
produces pleasure for me, not the X’s on the treasure map,
the ground-residing toadstool and dandelion pom-poms
thump like little drummers from the peat beneath the palm fronds,
            a riff that still exists for me even though your arm’s gone,
I left without my watch and didn’t even tie my tennis shoes, forgot to fill my water up and didn’t do my stretches,
but the reckless sense of order feels correct if not infectious,
and I’ll testify perceptions – seem to tell me that I wasn’t crazy – beauty seems to be a breeze the trees discover daily,
 and there’s comfort in the way we all exist with one another
so we still connect directly even when I miss my lover
