Claws Not Tame


these tame claws
are but not benign
not lacklustre
not positive
for negative

these claws know harbour
know scratching in silence
in silhouettes and shadows
in the orchestras of light-play
and dark offspring-marks

when you cradle these appendages
these limbs
these flesh of chisel and plum
remember
to let
me
see your
eyes

these nails and hammers
that move music
play as silk
in a carnival of instruments
that are in my body
can unplug
those marbles

your coquettish tweed suit
needs no ironing
as these claws
needs no clipping

in meditation
they perch
and flow
like tides of water
venom of ice

you can smile
remember
that the eyes
dwell

and fingers linger...

Limit Knows Not

Seraphim me rose to the clouds
burning blue upon her face
her veiled genius
errupted

no, no rain always needed
just her in dazzling heat

blue chromosome
that decodes dreams
DNA for water replication
DNA for limitless

you rose with me

Oh Sky immortal

Bask me also with the blue valour that knights you

The origin of the Brave
rests with you beautiful daughter...

A Clean Wound

There is no way to cut a clean wound
nestled in a body exclusive in a pensive 'anywhere'
'anything goes' pinned up with serenades
like water hardwired electric I see it

your ass
yeah I know
I'm not talking sense
'cause baby my heart was supposed to be here

it's a clean wound see?
Shylock's curry
Antonio's soulmate
Portia's butt
all up some shit
of tangled stupidities

There's nothing like a clean wound ok
better than ecstasy drug
better than anything cute

oh wait
I'm really bleeding to death
ok
which page was I on again?

And Lilith spoke


Last night I envisioned a retelling of the tale of Lilith
She was no women but the first Androgyne
Man withing the female casket of bones and flesh
Women within the masculine bosom and the looks so entwined-ethereal
Feed me not with the sinner's apple but with the leaves of that knowledge wood
that scarred humanity - let me dance with sin in a periphery
but never drunk with its hollow dances of a tale too cut with chaos

Let me know man as a single; the woman as a double
Let me know woman as a single; the man as a double

Let me see the one called Azazel fallen for that which he constructed
Oh Allah let me see to know the bounties of sin and grace
To know Eve's purity and satan's malnutrition

Oh Allah the One who wrote the book by which Cosmos prays
Let me be embedded with the voluminous alphabets known as stars
Let me read as I make tea of these leaves
For You who knows all
Knows me

Let their fingers have blasphemies

I shelter no sainthood...

Vein Explusion


That which was done to improvise - impoverish the necessity
came into the mouth of the apocalyptic - dreaming vices in a riddle
your corrupted semblance resemble those of biblical destructions
your lies crafted as but the poetic of bone-bound bondaged machine
you are called the threshold of nightmares and romantic disabilities;

why
why
oh
why
oh why
oh why
why
oh
why

Did you understand so little you mechanism of ill-trusted design?
Why was it not enough to cradle a love-enzyme enabling gestation?
You are so coil for striking a madness of pragmatism-dogmatism
Is this the cause of a resolute being? Or, the cause of a dominion of you?

I reject
I inject
cross veins

My madness
My Kingdom
My dominion

is of my own


Myriadic


You blind denizen who has lost his slipper
I recall Solomon's scenarios
of streets visited by a paramour seeking
beau lost
The art that which emits me now
is warmth
Ai Wa Umi
on my mind
listening to it
dreaming
oh what a nuclei in the midst
like oiled up cells
bursting with life
maybe so
who knows anything
But then we might be sleeping
in a cocooned off-filled comfort
progression in regression
life twisting
an earth inside
an earth external
too many mouths talking
in a beautiful water
of me - whole.

Mutilated stars End

The telescope mounted my eyes
it reproduced a tragedy
bend it back
the lenses cloud

your astronomy knows no senses
you are packed in the neutrons of sadomasochistic

pray, look at that bow
pray, look at that sword

that constellation armoured

the heavens soar to battle

Lines



The factor with lines
they blur
they merge
zygotic
kisses


Some peripheries
no peripheries
all
transcendental
allegories
analogies
dichotomies
synonymic
alterations
originals
Eyes
are
detailed
beholded.



Red Labyrinths

Your red eyes
irises on watery ground
pinching off
labyrinths
your
destiny
soaked
in
blood



Paper and Ink
Vein and heart
Brains and collagen
all interlinked
in the offspring
called body
soul's heir
practice
the
eye well

Sun-Kissed Walk

The road ahead tumbled
wake against wake
crystals in the avarice
crystals in morality
the touch axis
plays cordially
life opens
as sun
lamps
on
Serenity orchestra
waters aloud
greens purring
pouring waxen delight
viridian candles
sorcerer's intake
sorceress magical
annihilation
of
impiety
Giveth
Chance
cracked
walks
imperfection
yet
skin-talk-like
beating
proud
weathered in weather


such romances
are hard to sleep

A Whore Of My Melody

She dances and undresses
like toxic tape on my skin
she undresses as I call
this whore by my bedside
lamp

You agree that she's
pretty
in the archaic, primeval way
as she undresses
colours all span
and erupts in folly

She undresses and undresses
like layers
I can see now
bones and flesh
such a fleshy knife
the heart

It is meant to see no oblivion
for it equals obivion

oblivious is not a state
it's an existence

her toxic body that undresses

no wine can cure the undressing

Variances

We all have dreamers
serving a lesson
a goal
to court
reality

Mindless pragmatism
leads one astray

and the dogmatic is drunk
with untied metallics

only me the human
remains chaste

Contemplative

Love matters
why so?

When sex serves
as a stronger
billetdoux

Oh the soul that manifests
in a biological code
can it be explained merely?

With wetted lips
eager eyes
a clasp of skin heated

hair all coiled?

A Little Definition

Bewilderment is human
sin is human too
Virtue polishes in DNA

a code to rely on

but strands of error
is in the form
designed to be dancing

on air and water.

Ocean Friend

The Ocean could not reveal
its body too vast
or was she? he?
too androgynous to give it cast

This Ocean that bonded
with me
solely for my pleasure

This Ocean who tamed and remained untamed
like glassed universe
on a poet's hand

Some Fruits

Some fruits I've learned to eat
because they were of easy skin

they peeled without much commands
some old wrinkles
some youthful tease

These fruits had broken seeds
some too new
needed coat

These fruits are all I eat
All forgotten
All digested

All matters to be dismissed

Passion Crime

A tender voice
that concealed
my sadness

kiss me
kiss me
kiss me

lie on me
lie on me
lie on me

Thy tender voice
that concealed
a ring

you can bend laws
you can bend hearts

you can rust my soul
you can play with lovers in the park

I see you
your tongue
brushes
in leaves
in hotel-rooms
in phones
in chatrooms

I drop coffee
you scream

a minute revenge
for your abysmal self

The Courtesan In The Courtyard

The courtyard wielded a courtesan
waiting for master
with wide eyes
as doe-beauties

whispering maids
quizzical guards
butlers uneven
and a governess too ashamed

the gentleman is gone
come back another day
you are mistaken
his office is of heaven
no worldly lust
can earth him
he is man
in image good

your goods do not seduce
your looks are not maiden fair
nor breathed in of
a high stock

his mistress-wife with children will opt
to throw you out
you heathen wretch
of creation

your lies are thy home
this chastisement
payment of the due

courtesan smiles
all offices wield gates
all lies polished
a mask of all honesties paraded

courtesan smiles
he knows me as an Ursula

he gets up to go
other dues to collect

Realms Questioned

When you breathe the genie-smoke
in lamp-bodied dreams

can you hear the screams
of an orthodox realm

nay your tongue is dumb
nay your eyes glisten

too much ideas
go on
punished
to see
the
lamp
upturned.

A Death Of No Death

A fish that was eaten
in a stream
clawed to be an egg
in another's life

Caught by the net
a reincarnation subdued
visited by angels

prayed,
hummed
kicked

death
is absolutely non-absolute

in the sphere of creation.
