ar.ar..HOOOWWWWL!

 

it's all about breath

we all do it, breathe that is, and it's our breath which gives us

pause

the rhythm of your blood pumping through your brain

 

it's all in alliteration, when it's not forced or even thought about

in this pause, i've reflected back at me

not a suicide note

   not a suicide at all

more like a weary man just laying down his head

      in the desert night

after an exhausting drenching drowning  lifetime of days

seven by threes

 

albrecht durer castles steps

gothic passageways

gargoyled paths   pathos

 

dreaming.  i know i am

very lucid dreams i follow

finding

          crumbs

                    along

                            the

                               way

                               way

                        down

                 i find

     illusions

sparkling waves.   elusive

mist mirrors.   no reflection

durer's fortress.   staid

dali daVinci          warhol

ah!  picasso w/a twist!

 

i dont know where this is going here

just as when i sleep

comatose-electric-rems

 

and then i gotta pee.

post script

obsessive meanderings

  counting over & over

    reading the line

      breaks differently

but i always went back to how i wrote it first

 

seeing patterns alliterative pairings

they march the paper in groupings

  triptich in nature

uncovering by threes, seven times.

 

from word four

line six seven eight nine ten

counting syllables

not trying to make it fit...

  noticing that it does

my breath songs know how to sing
