So how does the poet
Say it?


Trench-coat the backward flow of the time within
Us yet living in the ever present ever knowing NOW.



Yeah, poetry's alot like that sometimes .

Mere words more than memory's clutch
Or  screwing verses

In the dark.

Awaken
The dead song
From the grasp

Of Gods …


Worms.

Correct all the wrongs
With one single line,
Tear down all walls

With love.

Which you must
Wear

Like hate.


Instructions?

1.

NOTE:
See manual on living a life
Half life  Any life

And write.

2.

Capture fragments
Of all things lost, long forgotten
In linear time-line
And devour

Like prey.

And burn
Without remorse.


3.

Remember all
Recollect & instigate.
Exploit Whitman
And rape language;

All
Sonnets
Martyrs
Words.

Love with heart
But fuck with soul

For an eternity
Avoiding clichés.


So how does the poet
Say it?

Become human.

As the light passes
Through the window

That is you.
