Was it enough, or too much?
Was it enough, or too much?
I.
Just enough
burgundy ink
only a touch
turpentine
everything & nothing
ochre, cinnabar, paint thinner.
Graphite
(6 for 99¢!)
Erasers
(Sold out)
Charisma
Euphoric porcelain,
fragile: indestructible.
Citric
Lioness— fierce
goddess.
Palace walls tremble
her facial grimace.
Pulled out of the ashes
by a hand being
pulled by a hawk
Into space.
Our cells
Are unzipping themselves.
II.
The connection.
(Page 83)
Synthesis of human folly &
the foibles of living stone.
(Page 107)
The huntress & scribe, her
bargain, re-articulated.
(Page 215)
Every moment was
artificial
fluorescence
saturated
toys
white
plastic
Mirrors vomiting sex
with that
unbearable
fake
smile.
Every second was
organic
biochemical
modulation
incessant
Orgasmic microparticles
with an
unfathomable
charm.
III.
Through dualistic constructs
"You'll have to
learn to endure
dualistic constructs."
the teacher learned
to say
through pain
the pupils, playing
with a ball
of yarn.
What matter
Humans or kittens or
Fleas or reptilian mustard or
Friends or dehumanized foreigners
Were a splat on my
TV screen mind or
my rope of psychic entwinement,
the antenna of my
exhausted profusion
(Simians, frogs in monk robes or
an old store clerk, a rusted spork or
swollen canned SPAM,
yellowed Andy Warhol prints
or bath bubbles, creature
comforts,
not-live-without-able
imported luxuries,
fermented pickled caviar,
buried-in-the-earth-in-an-
elephant-heart-for-sixty-days gourmet anchovies,
fine products,
silken goods,
masterful touch
of mustachioed artisans)
To tell the truth, it was
all well made, but
a bit too much.

Is it ever too much or too little? It is a matter of perspective? Sometimes the world judges too much so I say it was just right!
I'll say cheers to that! Cheers!
I was delirious when I wrote this answer so I definitely wasn't alert. Maybe I should get sick more often!!! :D
This is too little, but from everything I've seen the best is an old
gramophone.
For poetry I was left without comments.
Amazing Poetry ! @d-pend
Hunger
