Chapter 10: Thunder and lightning bear smash the squad
Host of the true and the brave
and the innocent
infinite speed at any moment at
the last moment in the moment of inertia
for the myriad gods and mothers
and guilty soldiers
who believe in the lie of the
dead, to play a weary slow dirge for the tortured
across the misty beach at night
with the cold wind blowing hard and the roar of the surf
And assume the form of their
various days, your thousands of days and years of the dream
white sheets would blow in
ghost windows where it lasts and you forget time
sit at the slowly floating
piano playing beautifully and sadly
human shapes like pearls under
the full moon of her ripe days
gentle gristle of rubbed sea
sand, the whales and elders, to the seagull and rocks
The foamed spray and salt air,
all lost to time
like the gods of fallen heroes,
covered in long dried black blood, deep in the ground
the piano would at times
actually float apart, gliding and then moan before it smashed
and then trillions of wooden
pieces, all put back together before the morning sun rose
and then out of its joints and
then its life without mass, only light and non-time fishing
And then like a modern hand gun
and then it forming itself into
a black metal bird, large and alive
and then it rains out across
the wet rocks in a musical production
and then like a sharp bell
shaped retort, gabriel’s horn never ends
shooting its own ivory into the
endless galaxies
And at that moment a large wave
did flourish and a rush of gargantuan sea flotsam
and in its chaotic dictatorial
force it flung me across the jagged rocks
boom and then carried into the
hereafter with all absolute violence extinguished
all inundated by the
appearances of shades in the nothing, as they did appear
and tumbled about by roaring
white sea foam , cleaned of material force by my dome
deeply down into the darkened
night at the bottom of the sea
where all kisses cease to be
a place where only the new rain
was ever born from again
a place lost to the world of
the dark abject spirits
those deluded advocates of
material satisfaction
Back to the one free and
absolute peace
where the memory is not forgotten, and the thoughts are light again
like a child
back to where the green wooden
boat lands softly down, in the pages of earth
