Nebuchadnezzar Wine<\/p>\n

sundays are mine not mine
\ntrade insanity for pride forgo
\nreborn chosen unchosen
\nungrateful no now
\nbathed in black milk
\nthe not so petite death
\nwashes & cleanses
\ndirts, sins, & candleskins
\nlockpicks plucked chastity belts
\nV shaped softer doves coo
\niron clad hearts melts through
\nbeats of blood heartless strung
\ndrums hushed animal hides
\ntanned in shit piety
\ntroubadours untravelling
\nno one is dancing tonight
\nstrippers of unreal
\nworshipers corporeal
\nholiness lauded in
\nwild silence
\nlove’s mercenaries
\nsiege machines
\nfashioned & fastened chasten me
\nmy charnel house burned to ground
\nturns all my lovers against me inside me
\nteeth, moleculars, & neurons
\nroots gnarled soil
\nvirgin of the rocks
\nplainsong & sublime
\nmake from my tears your wine
\nyour window to my soul
\nbreak my heart change my tune
\nof flesh fruit to mercy truth defies
\nhigh minded faith inactioned
\nears of ignorance peals of laughter
\nforest or cathedral squared
\nhaloed hallowed accidental
\ndark penitential prided potential
\nhung & disemboweled
\njudas miscarried us out
\nunawakens to mortality
\nmy elite machismo
\nworlds floating
\nweightlifter of
\n3 pounds of pink
\nmatter fecal fetal femme fatale
\nbe likesome the one no one is like
\nbe softer supple to his will
\nthe self you should kill & let win never
\ninsects indigestible swarms
\nlocusts wave without words
\na murder of birds down
\ninto the firmament i
\nmake war paciferous wrists
\nkisses pass the lips
\ncuts the flower throats
\ncured & healing snake
\ninvasive intoxicating
\na pair of wings no
\napocalyptical yes
\nfour fresh horses fly
\nthe thrush of praises spark
\nfears on pain’s frontiers
\npleasure to suffer like
\nthe earth fallen
\na comedy of errors
\nfaultlines & fractures
\nsteeped in stupefaction
\nbrilliance centering
\ndisciplined grieving
\nmourn for zion trumpetless
\nundress in the white
\nblinding those naked
\nimproving the nudity
\ndrinked down mouths of babes
\nmastectomies concaves
\nthose circles once fixated on
\nspiralling down
\ntranscendent prolonging of
\nmy stanzalessness
\nverticalled & bottled up sold
\nwarmth medicinal gold
\nheat surgical precision sing
\nnot the foreign songs
\nwoon not the strange woman
\nno wine is better than the fruit
\ncry with those drinking the very
\ninheritance gasping for hair
\nageless & dieing on the vine
\nyou must age before youth
\nthe womb will not return to you
\nthe same the grave the name
\nonce & forever wet
\non your lips on fire
\nslippery whet glossy finishes
\nopen flowers wedding everything
\nto the best blood ever shed
\nthe only tears ever bled
\nwhite to wine eyes
\nbedrooming sigh
\nzion unsmalling
\nvolcanic uncupped
\nphoenix onyx peacock black
\nbubbles for ashes undrunk but
\ndancing for the first time
\nangels on the head of a pin no
\nchildren in the summer no
\nsacred again the never changing
\nfind me in the reaping
\nhow many souls deep
\ncull me in the harvest
\ntoo many skulls heap
\nat the foot of the cross
\nneath this poem is a prayer i
\nfail i fell i blush she
\nwhite hot snow wakes me
\nfrom her here i
\nobsidian fingernailings
\nsubterra subtited
\npainted film aches
\na thousand william blakes
\nsay there is nothing left
\nnothing left to understand
\nasking me to pour myself
\nundergroundings liturgal
\nconvexing me to you
\ndetoxing me to she i
\nam paralyzed today
\nsundays are yours
\nsuffering mine
\ngrateful spine
\nserpenting no
\ntemptation reborn
\nDNA encoded
\ndenial ended<\/p>\n
