Immense Prospecting in dark corners
Uncovers mildewed remains of
things long forgotten.. Picture frames
Long since Rotted..The photos barely
Intact...WIND CHIMES SING IN THE DISTANCE
Cardboard Boxes overturned....
ChildHood treasures revealed,
Broken and Chewed by the moths of
Time
Old Transformers Bed Spreads
Nike Air from '88
They've been washed a multitude
graying beneath Bleach's fuzzy Hold
I...I want to see the dirt now
Nose up, sniffing the foul closed in air
A CARDINAL CHIMES IN THE DISTANCE
Old textbooks and High School annuals with
Long forgotten signatures and friendly
"STay Cools", and "Stay Sweets" marked in the liner notes
the faces now aged, many of them...skeletons..
in some Closet
Tears Fall
Absorbed quickly by fresh Pages with
New Ink, Tears forming the Words
MUSICBOX TIPS OVER, A DISTORTED MELODY PLAYS
Wedding Rings and Bob Marley Posters and my BABY teeth..
Some of them cut on Job applications...
Encyclopedia Britannica Volumes with pictures of Hostage crisis
my Heart is There in the Plane
Love in a Fleshy Diary
I dare not Look at it
I DARE NOT
Who AM I?
This Collaboration of the Junk in my Soul
Noone else's treasure
I see LIGHT sometimes in this gloom
When the ISLEY"S croon over a dusty Guitar Riff
beaming lightly thru the Trees in the Forest
Exhale
Breathe Deep
Hold
to contain some of teh Essence
I've seen Light when some writer
Beams their Pen into my SOUL with a
well-place Shot in the Dark
DAMN THE DARK
Nothing much Really matters anymore
Love Doesnt exist
At least not in My eyes
Someone told me My romantic Perception
was Wrong
SO ready to RUN...
I lap around this Attic 4 times...
and 4 times back...
And Then..
Sit Back in my piles of Grief
Where the Hell am I?
A RAIN SOFTLY HUMS ON THE ROOF
Lightning Bolts Flare
Lightning Bolts Flare
Something Glints beneath Baby Clothes
a pen is revealed
Lauryn Hill SERENADES ACCAPELLO
THE WALLS WARM
who AM I?
