NAVIGATING BEWILDERMENT
My eyes were closed as the rusty wheels
Took up their destiny in the soggy sand.
A ship of many tongues was driven to the edges
Of an acidic resolution without a bone to bury.
My mathematical elevator left thousands of stones
At the bottom of a melancholy depository of distilled heavenly excuses.
No one attempted to straighten the distance between
A hellish hemisphere burning bright and the oppressors of a polluted journey.
My mineral collaboration with God took a turn beyond orderly abuse
Before the raucous singing angels could fertilize a planet.
A domestic smugness added weight to the dusty conquest of a bliss
That originated where jasmine perfumed eternity.
My oyster odes returned to the ocean for a saltshaker sanctuary
That left no explanation for a dizzy soul to confess its bewilderment.
A sombrero heart that can crack the nub of both Heaven and Hell
Takes a circulatory curve toward what can be the inexhaustible ringing of change.
