it is all new to me
like I just got off the boat
from Poland
she came here at the tender age of 13
a refugee from the Czar
saw her family disappear
the fear in Baltimore
sitting in her front parlor
listening to the news from Europe
by the light of a an old floor model radio
the amber light from the tubes reflected on the wall
the flickering light of that wood stove
it is all so fresh in my mind
eidetic etched on my brain
like Nietzsche on acid
Not to dwell on the bad that is past
but it seems the past is never past
Got the peckerheads in DC that keep bringing up 1939
we got to hold the line against that Nazi Nigger in the whitehouse
No past ain't past except here and now in this text box where it is all timeless and ageless
H*tler
she never could say his name, only spit on the ground and curse in Yiddish
loosely translated as "may he lie in the dirt/ground
I am an ignorant child for religion
I thank my crazy mike for that
the stone cold atheist Jew
when the women wanted me to go to Hebrew school he put his crazy foot down and squashed that.
Never too late to feel the love of a father
grateful to him for that
poetry I got so little in me mark
cause I got no music in me
it's all Wuji to me
I stumbled onto that action poetry board on litchicks out of my vanity
I hope I can get by on studio eight with a little tolerance from my poet cyber pals on studio eight, Doreen, Judih, and Neologism. I owe them a lot
this my oasis my home away from home
my nirvana, my road my life in the limelight
where I feel like I am love
When I feel so much undeath
when I am in no fear of the Wuji
does that makes any sense
please pardon my mangled prose
it that is what this is
hardly poetry
just jam
that's all I got
Wuji and Taiji
I feel like Winnie the Pooh these days
remember Lucy's poem

This
This existence
the UnDeath of us all
is not tangible or real
Nor is the era
of Death or AfterDeath
A brief present
An everlasting past
An astral, eternal future
PreDeath drips into UnDeath
Undeath plummets into Death
AfterDeath ravishes all
Nothingness emerges
Predeath succeeds again
