— Eye for Anything

The first time I saw
my new love nearby,
my heart was a
rumbling volcano.
The volcano was
overflowing
with love as its magma,
as the eruption of
emotion
latched to my heart
as bait to a fish.
I felt so
alive,
my vision was clear as crystal.
my new love,
Chipotle.

It was at that Dang Nab It biggest family reunion ever,
I was eating cheddar cheese cubes,
and conversing with Sméagol.
When some one asks me to pass the Brussels sprouts,
Turning around I nearly choked.
It was Madonna, my fourth cousin twice removed,
with a loch ness monster on her mother’s side.
The first time we met was at a Quiddich game,
In with my brother and his friend Harry Potter,
were playing against the Yeerks.
Madonna was there with Uncle Elmer Fudd,
They were taking max to a skating party with James Dean,
Whose great great niece is my cousin’s mother.
At the skate party they up with Tony Hawk, in the midst of all this,
Our cousins the bush twins decide to start a streaking party.
They were arrested by chief of police Wiggum,
and talked Maggie Simpson into breaking them out.
Of course great grandfather Yoda didn’t find any of this amusing,
So he throw the dang nab it biggest family reunion ever.
Our old nanny Captain Hook was there,
And like usual he got into a duel with Mara Jade,
over who had a better story, Frosty the snowmen or Humpty Dumpty.
My cousin’s friend’s lawyer’s employee, miss piggy was divorcing her
husband,
Kermit the frog, because she had found a new love,
Big bird from Sesame Street.
Whose uncle, the Abominable snowman,
Is my aunt’s friend’s, cousin’s, nephew’s, uncle’s, father’s, friend’s
roomy,
In avalanche school for those who can’t growl and want to learn,
how to sneak up on unsuspecting people.
My uncle Dr. Sues was walking the family Pegasus,
Through the Garden of Eden,
when he ran into a very distraught snake.
Because he offered to help the snake,
He now speaks only in rhyme.
This as effect my cousin Dr. Doolittle,
Who is know conversing with animals.
It was at the dang nab it biggest family reunion,
That we were all gathered together,
And Madonna gave me tickets to her concert.
Now that I have explained myself officer,
Why don’t you let me go, or would you rather hear from my family lawyer,
Obi wan Kenobi.
Well maybe I had one bottle, but I have to go back to the concert.
Blackout
Hey what I am doing in this car
Zzzzzzzzzzzzziiiiiiiisnort
Blackout.

Within the walls
to which my eyes have bonded,
a vague sea smell of breath
I taste

when you talk of the beach,
without accompaniment.
The dove cooing sounds ringing through deafness,
a defeat of sensation,
welded into alien air

ultimate extension of mind’s strings
to pluck and to play

You, the finest tune.

You’re in a different time zone.
The world must have slowed down while you were asleep.
Days go by with each passing hour.
Others are unable to comprehend how you can move so quickly,
or why you would want to.
You’re passing through a field of different colors,
and none of them is your favorite.
Someone spun a dial when you weren’t paying attention,
changing the picture into a different view.
Formerly simple harmonies clash in complicated dissonance.
By now it’s clear that you’re not very comfortable here.
But you’re not sure whether to be taken away or not,
so you jump unknowingly into the abyss waiting to be caught
Being embraced is warm but flying is free
You can’t decide so you just fall until you’re ready

I sit in the front of the room,
Unnoticed ’til I’m needed.
I am lifted from my spot
To embrace the cold, hard board.
Everyone watches me.
I try to do my best,
But I break under pressure,
Left to be stepped upon,
Lying on the floor.
