When placed before me
  surveyors marked
    stakes in unbroken
      frozen ground hammers

Could not penetrate the ice

Congealed staining pardons
   ushers hurry in the late
     seats unwanted going fast
       opening night shakes piercing

Impaled on acceptable Grayness

Bleeding out life in not
    quite red blood insistence
       subjective defined many never
          one to staunch unworthy wounds

I bleed time people run  to scream

    no tomorrows no forgiveness
      in living as one believes is
        page 222 of the all inclusive
          songbook saving acquiescences

Child of the moment knowing no tomorrow

    no sirens wail old world trash heaps
      are precisely that worth removal never
        saving poison ideas which gave you the
          everlasting right to walk away complete

Without questioning tell me what does all this mean


"I dreamed a dream wherin I was dreaming, awakening within to Aushwitz eyes. I awoke of course. Staring at the boldnesse of my regulation striped self."

Valid memories of a time not soon forgot...and in a style that jars the senses this morn.

If I whisper, will you listen?...
I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound.

Interesting.  
will have to wait until my eyeballs quit bouncing back and forth to absorb this.  Felt like I was watching a fast paced tennis match  

Live for love. Without love, you don't live.
