Hitting Homer with a Broken Bat

Post by mtmynd » December 3rd, 2016, 9:22 am

Hitting Homer with a Broken Bat

it all happens as quickly as it begins

when the circumference of life returns

those beginnings once lost now found

and that blessed circle brings about

unforgettable dizziness ... stop it!



i offended my self and those echoes 

from some distant past, dust covered,

stacked like two-by-fours, askew you

askew me, as livermore acres delivers
whatever the hell they’re good for today.



a torrent of gratitude tilted delicately

upon the precarious ledge of boredom

driving the cherished principles of life

torn from ancient texts illegible to the eye

but the friggin' mind..! translate this!



how can desperation be so cruel when Homer

still insists on being remembered 850 years passed
...
an instant in the life of a memory that groans

and whistles thru gaped teeth, chipped by time

to never chew the proverbial fat with antiquity

we invent out of turmoil today's humbug buzz



bzzzz.... bzzzz... bzzz..... deliverance in an echo
