BOUND
Lynx, what pretty cat you are, what reflective eyes,
Insoluble as paint or oil, or silver chloride. What
Metals we could make to understand compounds.
Insouciance is not a constant, but maybe worry helps.
Tidewater region, I feel that I am from you,
Entitled to the marine life as our company, our
Dear mollusks and conch shells we hear the sea in.
Mimicking nature, Fibonacci patterns spirals, an
Exceptionable staircase only seen in Paramount.
Revamped ramps for skateboarding, the skaters were
Unswerving and then deliberately swerving, & she,
tidily flummoxed, attenuates herself, toning muscles.
Audiences wait some in expectation some to kill time,
Curt and silent as the lights dim before the show starts.
Holidays in this high place a new world of performance.
Border
Tidings from this border to yours, our border,
Cursory studies in every good place, we feel ok,
Honest to goodness, we feel fine, the single all waiting,
Unsung and paranoid sirens, men swimming upstream,
Minimal funds, pressed to get ahead, to be on the top.
By leaps and bounds.
Nestling like little cubs, the children snuggle up; no
Insensitivity has caught up to them yet.
We fear
Tightwads, giving saving a bad name, criticizing our
unsure future, ascribing all to faith, not understanding
Retrieval of these funds, simply wanting to explore.
BY LEAPS AND BOUNDS
Bonfire, what is the price of exploration or knowledge,
Insolvency no indication of anything but a lack of
Meaty cuisine or any more substantial matter. These
Homogenous mixtures are nothing more than batter,
Instantaneous mixes, just add water.
I loved my green
Reversible rain coat, on the other side the whales swam
underwater in their navy blue cloth, an even print.
Tulle used chiefly for veils or ballet, well I had no tutu;
Reveries of trees & sunshine, I could braid and pray for
Auburn hair, but I could not take dance lessons, now I
Borrow the beats from the radio and try my best, note
Auras, the sensations one goes through while typing.
TO BOUND
Let’s go somewhere we don’t know we’re going yet,
Insolvable, travel costs, where will I go and with whom?
Turmeric makes a dye and it is edible.
We liked those
Correspondent colors, earthy tones were conservative,
Homelike. We found Sassafras leaves
and boiled them.
Our counselor at summer camp showed us how to dye.
Mechanic understandings. It’s a lot
of work to learn.
BOUNDARY
The night is underway again, I still want to know,
Creation is so multifold, I don’t want to fold clothes.
Here there is a boundary. I thought
love not a mystery.
Unimpressed, the lady wanted to see a higher level of
Merit. I wish I could set such
limits, but it is a long road.
BOUNDED
The silk road was, is there. We
care, we don’t care.
Attrition is a line to one point, not the infinite path
Caused by love and devotion for our great creator, but
Harelips could make one feel ungrateful. Tomorrow,
Unity will still be needed, but also a brief disbanding.
More of this and more of that, but we had enough.
BOUNDLESS
Swoop down dove, blackbird, macaw, wren and raven.
Higher than the highest mountain we’ll be clean shaven.
East of here there is a quiet stream, I can take you to it.
East of there there will be yet another ravine and a hill.
In three days time you will not hear from anyone but a
Net will be given to you by an old man with a beard.
Let on that you knew of him and he will speak to you.
Onslaughts of pigeons and porcupines may occur, but
Guardians will be present surrounding the mayhem.
Veronica is an elf goddess who will take you and the
Untoward elder to your lodgings which will be fair.
Let in the hungry tired boy that knocks at the door.
