The Sliding Veil by disengage, literature

Literature

The Sliding Veil

Remember when used to watch the storms Pale shadows lighting the negative Where the silhouettes of our beings rest Inverted tears rolling down the invisible Sheet of plastic surrounding us Giving our loving respite The necessary pathos As the world crashes around us. Utterances few. Little puffs of air Struggle to term Imparting meaning That echo into the Caverns of our unconscious. For at the present. There is no momentum. No typewriters clicking. No signals fired. The present is merely breathed in. Where there is So much hope In abundant collapse. The primal element Coating the woodwork For a metamorphoses in grey

Robynwood Cemetery by disengage, literature

Literature

Robynwood Cemetery

My heart lies in stoned walls keeping the little inn warm from the ghosts that wander Robynwood Cemetery A fanciful breakfast and a rainy Carolina morn. I feel our time together would best be suited in hues of grey. Stirring her coffee, our environment blurs, and in the reflection I spy, an existentialist with a timrous beastie She seems afraid of her stock, while I remain a pantaphobe, brokering peace between personas loathing all the while. But after wild years, chasing crows and running the tender thread that binds our time I just want quiet conversation with milk and a biscuit. Her gaze never meets mine, our words ru

Elegy for a Cyclical Soul

Velvet memories whisping through an 8mm projector. We are not what the kaleidoscopic film reels of the future promised. No more sepia-toned dances No more voyages into the vague spaces of reality and pulp. Now the spheres separate. Now the reflection of life is seen at the end of a line of text.

Literature

Unification part I: Fear

And she asked me that night, "Are you afraid?" "Am I afraid?" The mad are not afraid. The mad are the inquisitive The lunatic with the typewriter in a garden. Tasting the strange vegetables to catalog and record the hidden geometry of things. Merely fringe anthropologists as it were. Yet, the realists are the deluded ones. For they fear the threats that are easily evaluated. No more fragile than the avatar, a perfect balance, a perfect chance. Flesh and blood need only use invention. There is not one element that can be matched with another. No, it is the mad fools who can see where danger lies. It is the stone garden in

Deconstruction by disengage, literature

Literature

Deconstruction

So what is the purpose of a microscope? Is there a set of defined parameters to take an enemy apart? Because cutting up the guts and sniffing the entrails, hardly makes one superior. I can see you. I can see inside of you. I can see the twigs you've snapped. I can see the residue you are leaving on the oak. And I can see the soil preparing itself for your feet. Because therein lies the fallacy of lens. You are not God, young child. Your cannot predict and master the maps of the machine. Indeed, you are selfish. You use your experiments for your own assurance of destined greatness. And you play tyranny with your dolls
