sAY wHaA--
Reaching deeply into buttery absorbed pockets
Only remaining Song
Left unrecorded for another chance expression
Just the way Music is
(and begin again)
White sprinkle bud Flower growth
Germinating inside Green
Important Green Change of once
Of Eastcoast Black Ant Eternity playing
Working easily outside past any Consciousness
(to begin again)
…dusty syndromes dont care Dharma
…in–filtered gratitude da da of imperfection
…showboat sailors without wings or patches
…hello greeters with no name no number
…Maxwell dog breather working out on tennisballs
…Holy Flowertop perfectionists
…Salt venders of Northcountry farm belt
…horney tail wagers lingering in subway dormitories
…abstractors who just get it, and more
---oh, too much weight to breathe easy
---oh, too little feeling to rise and stand in deviance
Instead: I call on the shrouded hat faker lingering in the grey sunshine:
Become this full moon tonight, Albion,
with your Grace, your Ease
