C. J. MARECIC ChrysanthemumsI am always chasing some damn thing or other. Sometimes it feels so close so damn close I can feel its lips its whisper its infatuation its evocation upon my fingertip comprehension though a wistful thought an indolent dream an unfettered heart a pretty tail a petty indiscretion my own fucking reflection in a moonless sky begs to interrupt the transmutation of this sympathetic tactile apotheosis still these hands restless searching curious hungry genuine these futile hands thrive rest upon the eloquent the elusive grasp of another fugitive distraction; it might as well be chrysanthemums I wish it were chrysanthemums I'd rather it were chrysanthemums I would follow chrysanthemums gleefully obediently into the austerity of winter if they'd warm these chilled hands, if they'd reclaim these empty hands with one more feral distraction one more fanciful dream one more journey homeward, or, failing that, with, at least, a liquid promise immured today within the alchemy of those spontaneous efflorescent suns. poetryrepairs #198 v14.03:030 |
