Truth

There is only one truth
It is your truth
The moment you think it
The instant you speak it

It cannot be my truth
However I might try
To steal it or utter it

Love is such a truth
A truth for you to reconcile
Each moment
By each reconciled moment

Fissures

She takes me as close as I have ever been to being there

In sight of her voice I have the same sense of anxiety as seeing her

Female and fleeting discourse she sidelines the midnight air

Setting the course, turning the sextant, I feel her stare

She takes me as close as ever I've been to being there

I resume, consumed, subsume the particulate of her bearings

Of her lunar landscapes, of her inner tune

The flumes of her fjords gorge me

With their plutonium tinged, seraphim crests

I am beset, heterosexuality is rampant

It rises in me to turn the frets and the regrets aside, to put asunder

I take her, as close as she has ever been to being there

Helpless, without choice, I have the nocturnal habits of pleasing her

Masculine and handsome the source is wilful in fulfilling its share

Such resource that rallies and rails as one turns to the guiding flare

I take her, as close as ever she's been to being there

Least known or unknown address

Valedictory eyes

Purple gaze on to no one

A precursor to the past people

Of my present premonition

Unusually I am keeping going

I am on my way

To somewhere of little interest

I keep going

For something usual may occur

Fundamental

To superficially soak

In the stupendous stupor

Of not even half understanding

The weighty tome before me

With style, form, scholarly

Vocabulary; a resonant

Ambiguity holds me transfixed

By its inadmissible beauty
