I attended a dream last night
Eyes wide open
laugh cry shout shush
In a wild corner of heaven
diaphanous Habitation of
sprites nymphs ghosts rush
Phenoms and
Enons
Keyhole peek sneak freak
Screaming, begging, coaxing, whispering
Music
and
Invisibles
into Being
in pelting colonies swathed in Light
or
singly in blasts and shadows and sighs
Visible only in intangibility
Phantoms of Paradise gone mad
whirled fantasies
demon notes
underworld’s White Horse of the
Night
aaahhhhh i sigh sigh i
how do i paint music with the brush of Words?
with the Brush of Heaven, Lover of red priest and white
FirstBorn WordMadeFlesh
the red and white
Sanguine FleshBread of Heaven
wine and bread
drink engross
eat unctuous
and not quite touch
whish
gone!
where?
Words? i? you? them?
gone to the berserkness of ultimate beauty
i must remain in penultimacy
swingswang
i reach for Words.....
twining, spining
spinning, grinning
circling, crushing
flowing, blowing
surging, merging
haunting, wanting, loving
sexing, singing, clinging,
laughing, crying, dying
mirthing
birthing
i not even God’s MidWife
And how shall i
thread the flashing needle
prick quick
to anchor it all
within God’s Mouth?
Swallow spew breath
Exist
La Folia
Folly Molly Jolly Solly
Brolly?
Raging Pulsing Churning Notes
the NightMare of Torrent
Torment of Red and White
concussing brain
percussing heart
At last
Left hanging there
i? you? them?
Words?
Notes?
replete with the nothingness
of everything
Hanging there
suspended in eternity
bedazzled
where shot positioned loved placentacized
Forgiven with
the forgiveness of surcease
Pardoned with
the Resolution of Heaven
And i?
Gone!
Spirited away
Abducted by the Dream’s Folly
wealthstealth
suspended
between
Belief
and
Disbelief
Amen and amen until i never reappear
as i
