Deus Ex MachinaA Poem by JF Toomey
Deus Ex Machina
3/26/13 Waking, To The Force Of the cold Early spring morning's Rain, Wind, Pelting, Thrusting, Against these sturdy Mostly-wooden walls, Warmed by creaking Whistling hot water, Rushing Through the house's veins I dream of Shedding All fearful thoughts, Releasing My hellish ensnarement, In an unconsciously adopted Identification, With A Projected Hegemonic Masculinity By countless generations, Of Galactically stu'pefied Men, Confusing Narcissism for Manhood, Like Achilles' heel, The hero's hamartia Limits his bearing strength, All but Guaranteeing, His inevitable and Portended Tragic End That I may embrace My divine inheritance, Abiding Deep within: The tenderness of twilight The brilliance of a star, The sustenance of solitude The beauty of a flower, The genuity of the aged The curiosity of a child, The freedom of the out-breath The power, in the present's, possibilities All Urging My deliverance, From loveless cold despair, In life's cocoon Of fear-based habits, Of struggling ego's aimless ends Of sabotage by solution-forcing Of unduly seeking night's Revenge, In Rage's, Cradling, Oblivion Choosing Movement Shifting Thinking, Outward Toward Light's peace, Fearlessly Grateful for Deus Ex Machina: The percipient raging im'pulse To Destroy, All manner Of dis'ingenuity And escapist release, Like a petulant child, Taking joy In annihilation, Of his building-block masterpiece Forced now to sit With raw emotion, With mighty urge Now, to flee, I've come to know Mind's monkeying nature, My essential goodness, And Fear's confrontability As time ticks forward I Sense the glimmer, The Master's Stroke within: At long last, Epipha'nic Revelation! True Self Authentic!! Kaleidoscopic Spontaneity Breathed into me Sent from my iPhone © 2013 JF Toomey |
