Freeze the Frames

A very abstract yet true-to-life free-write piece.

This tightrope stalk, my walk reverts from straight

Falling off just to get back on again

What do horses have to jump onto once they’ve crashed to the ground?

Weaving underlapping braids take Sunday hostage

Heart freezing heavy weights and limbs turn to grey

Hair fashioned into a replica of your girl previous

What a perfect tune to add to the score

Curvatured spines, don’t they tell you

To do lots of things ladies must but no longer

One panoramic walk around and I’ve lost you

Certainly for certain, ceased all prospects of tagging and branding It

With your call I’ll consider a decision

I can’t believe I’m taking their year-old advice after all

                                  

We are in undeterminable limbo of determinable matters

Stomach aching plans of companionship, long servile drives up north

All in all a barely breathing set of lungs gasping and sputtering

We can be friends if one of us tries

Let’s get something going that has the blood pumping, juices will flow

That uncovers shades, exhibtioning inner cores like apples

Teacher, told her

 Read the Premonition Book but didn’t mention where to get it

Tunneled home in the back of that downtown sardined bus

He warns, “It may hurt your feelings.”

 

Upper, downer

Jupiter makes the call

A computer

Better suits her

If you’re with me, I’m with you all the way

Whatever made these nights more tolerable than day?

 

Take my hand and swipe away the workings inside that cross dark wires

Replacement with light, all that’s needed to conjure up

She doesn’t have to have eyes to know that someone’s standing right there

To help your heal, seal the deal

If it comes undone it breaks apart I bid you well

In some cases I have to run it and gun it until there’s no more left
