Look Both Ways Before Giving

Paintings and drawings in black and white expressionism.
Intimate objects of beauty.
Symbols of desire.
Personal aesthetic barriers.
A bowl of fruit, suspended from a string.
Reinvention of the still life?

Diminishing words with impossible meaning.
Swim within the depths of intelligence and nonsense.

Confusing truth with illusion.
Emotional truth within a poem.

Cynicism, apathy, a sense of failure.
Excess stimuli without a social message.
Look both ways before giving.

 

Chasing Death, North of Life

True or fiction?
It's a good book.
Why do I never see you write?

A weird tiger, cow or goat?
Technically, it's a bull.

Alluring diamonds describe a river of a darker complexion.
It feels too deep.

Estranged fish with legs.
Superior to God.
I can't believe.
So call me a non-believer.

Bathing in thunder.
This nightmare returned.
Mysterious streets in a brown blur.
A loose leaf binder filled with codes.

Think in terms of tradition.
At present, there are no suspects.
