Movements in automatic writing

 

I, hemeroging the color of rust
Or the bald pupil of an eye.
I accelerate

Down the thumbs of you half cut onion
Acceptance is what makes the heart beat,
it is what peels out from the still black of a mind

It is great, like the sword of a 1,000 year old god
of who stand upon hills displaying nothing.
I, his unquestioning disciple

follow him like I follow golden ears of corn
the toppling hills, I show no red inflamation
drawn out from the hem of my green skirt.

absent, I am black and white, a mild vibration
Like a mother begging upon knees instead of two feet.
I shall come back in your broad day
