The Heir - The Air
E(x)ternal imagined, its energy in-min[(e)(d)]. Equable in-vision:
Impervious eyes. Well faired. in warm winter – Air Is – in-hailed
Then air is. Ex-hailed. Air is. In-took and then is: ex-spelled.
Ex-halting the air – The Heir – Is the(a)ir:
Revoltened. Resinous. Residue;
Re-cyclic remains are rightly returned
Re-changing the flame – re-chaining;
Re-claiming the same: a gain
Again and a gain and again;
Re-naming the smoulders of rain.
The game is plain:- Inside.
In side it is plain – plain’ with his zein; again. And outside
It’s plain – in Time. Out side it’s plain’ in va(e)in.
In place and on going, it’s gone from the main…
Read the rest of the poem Show less
Gone from the main – it trains,
Its lefting the brain:
De-maim.
De-maim, de-suffer – de-suffer the slain.
In-sain’
It’s writing whats left in the brain:
Surrender - a stroke – an inking is spoke
And summonsed a slithery snake
A snake scent to spin
Sneak, swirl and seduce:
A snake scent to strike at the fire.
Soothing; its scolding -
A soul is evolving -
Bandaged by burning: desire.
