from a wearing of light
Thrust from
Something assembled slanted. A something
of a shadow’s verbal praise. About behavior,
nothing is earned is a fabricated dissection
of the holder’s internal modification. Sleep
does this. Why awaken well when day’s
double-handed hold always resembles noon.
Changes burn their pockets, leaving what leaves
whole a diameter of a damaged garden.
Spectral
A breath stretched its skeletal sound.
Its corporeal state, altered, renaming.
Man does this, developing ideology of selective façade.
Something becomes altered following the
hand’s evil speculation.
Language
designs beyond what
predetermined
miracle
delves into gradating an eventual improvisation
of sound and mobile dexterity.
I’ve seen dragonflies examine blur as thesis confirmation.
The good eye researches factual alphabets confirming
duality of already splayed and unorganized plurals. Tiredness
of static smallness portends a trend furthering the baseline
behavior of why aloneness leads to remembering.
An importance of ascertaining portrait
Rice grain tumbling
between grace of finger
-thumb aspect,
configuring sensation
of frictional elaboration, paralleling
a painter’s release of
idea into fruition
of composite simile,
accurate delve amid
conscious exertion.
Nothing
collimates water’s frequency of
burying apparitions. Of what became
following
death of the oscillating food, what replaces
color when hands donate
ghosts
in return for angled trickery,
assaultive implication?
Eclectic
The formulation of fingerprints and
glaze interacting on a window’s elder physique. Nuance can never
fully emphasize a wholeness’ predetermined
architecture. In pre-knowing symmetry I resemble light foremost
amid morning’s slow push into varying angular
hours and flailing misconceptions.
And music informs me
—as does a calligraphic crow
indenting to remove margins
of
systems’ hierarchy of closed hands
and fleeing from diversions of blurred
adaptations
—holding flame
furthers the palm’s designated
purpose
and expanding recollection
toward providing hold inward
…figuring dexterity of searching
confirms trio of signaling apparitional
momentums
i.
praising wind with wishing verbs to
confiscate elation from the watcher
whose permission to conceal enables
mentalities of follow and forget applicable
systems of unremoved deliberation
ii.
composing text from perspectives
of purposeful openness—collecting
permissive data from the mirror’s
meandering tongue, tonal and accentuated
among an hour’s elongated fathom
iii.
[possessing] watercolor trees
processing spring’s diligence to entertain
bridges of ongoing collocation—
what wanders is the eventual finale of
improvising shape and allegorical elation
What becomes from unknowing
An error occurred amid recognizing blur.
The alphabet of untruth
misspoke into drawing of a curtained
flame too undervalued to provide sedentary purpose.
This
is where light wades into a wandering
quiet
near
where movement means the body’s
premise is a written theory of prosaic
division from rhythm’s devotional
collaborations.
Again, the eye is absent.
This means language is not yet invented
awaiting tongues to mangle the innocence
of desire. Layers rely on introverted
bouquets to splay, comprehended.
When
death is the cyclic mention of needing. An
answer dictates each hand’s rendition
of manipulating vision’s etiquette of
nuanced invitation.
My
wondering of mirages’ foundational hum,
the hearing of how a wing looks with
focal examination exploring diversion
more so as gift
than
the permissive disposition
of wind’s softened approach
to parenting grass’ earliest
threat to cut into angular
clarity.
Dexterous appearances
i.
where the ocean watches launch—(mirrors reenact their own inventions through visual echoes)
too, among spirals of dangling sayings learned watchers use reach
to perform what the memory’s
residue calls on to engage
an hour’s consistent relapse in
portending obedience
ii.
Couriers mention they’ve lost their way. (The body releases burden.)
Cannot, —in varied contextual allowances.
I heard an underestimate of language tainting value.
The moment of malleable truth expands into reconfigured otherness.
Philosophy.
My wondering of the kaleidoscopic moth—the tonal recreation of painted absquatulation.
iii.
walking paths: mundane
instead: flight
precision: a fabricated nuance of cultural influence
instead: improvise
purpose: intuitive explanations of the mind’s bending pathway
instead: react
thus, with meaning of autonomous secrecy, the body believes and ignites amid causational configuration
