Differing the Existential Potential of Crawdads

scarred taurian torsos on the side of burleigh -
i thought i was complaining
but words spilled liquid all over dover...

springs crushed under their own bounce,
jello wiggled inconsistently in shadows
brought on by feigned marigolds squinting

thru harmonic divergences pasteled by gargoyles
erected on phantom whispers shouting in dutch
hellevating the dissipation of magnitude rightly.

i recited the alphabet splattered like warriors blood
against the walls built of ivory stolen from japan
but my heart pedaled furiously counterclockwise...

spirals spewing fumes of stale nicotine
exhaled by lungs from african mystics
relying on sanctity to provoke angel’s dust

to endure the basquiat figurines distorted
by three feet imitating grasps of confusion
wiped by cloths imprinted with slogans from

nine hundred and sixty-three migrant midgets
collapsing in domino effect without clatter
upon furrowed brows confused by dilettantes touch.

i awaken to seven moons rotating to brahms
causing the midnight clouds to blush as if
nuernberg was invented by historical events...

june proceeded the winds of flatulence expelled
by the earthiness of nature's feline presence
and yodeling woodsmen chopped cilantro abroad...

mercurial disadvantages slipped on peeled acorns
adjusting leverages out of borrowed bottled air
masturbating against venetian blinds from taiwan

a king of nigeria offered me one gold pendant
the replicated sinus of a wild boar
while i knelt on one knee free at last

while the echoes in my head subsided
across the placid still waters of lake titicaca
deep in silent meditation, life begins again

2004 *was* a bloody time, my friend, and one that unleashed the crimson juices, spurt by spurt by spurt. I was unable to wear a white shirt for a year. But it was creative, I must say.

btw: Horror is a very popular movie genre that never gets squat from Hollywood. It's not right, you agree?

[the mingo]

it certainly is not right -

[mnaz]

Hollywood doesn't care about horror. It cares only about the explosions. It is too busy turning out jingoistic computer-generated-special-effects propaganda epics in conjunction with the Military Industrial Complex. Which seems kinda ironic actually, considering how many Hollywood types were blacklisted for "un-American" activities by the feds six or so decades ago ...

But ... I could be totally wrong about all that.

I think you got something here! Not clear yet what it is... but instinctually I think you got something here.

Hollywood certainly is, for the most part, family rated thru 'R' ratred avoiding XXX and the horror genres... keeping the business clean and sanitized with a general thumbs up for military oriented violence using the current war as a backdrop to produce these "bang busters" that the public so enjoys... also the Marvel/DC comic heroes using the same military superiority that Hollywood has mastered so well.

You are welcome, amiga mia... it's been too long since we've met up here! I hope all is well with you and your family.
