Flank
2-18-13

Projected are the bastions and flanks
In that in all things today I give thanks
Reading again the book of Leviticus
Discussing the offerings and sacrifices of the blood of bulls and goats
That do not take away sin
Yet are set in place to cleanse the conscience
Hoping to set aside this suspicion
Of a green Ford pickup truck
Of which I set aside
To have a prolific presidents' day
By my candlelight and incense of joy and thanks....




Bowl
2-18-13

Last night my brother was in my head
Telling me to just breathe
Because it is free
Staggering out of bed again for a bowl of black Cavendish
In that I am happy right next to God's manifestation of unmerited favor
Hoping that when the time comes I'll be apt to let go of this attachment
To serve as an obstacle of acceptance
Putting my menagerie and my library back into good use
By the beatific bliss of my percolation and my morning juice....





Rash Choice
2-18-13

I was pondering over and over again
In my bowels of God's mercy
Of how I will learn how to live with my rash choice
To shave off my hair
And how I will present myself
When I return to class
Where the devil tells me I ought to be ashamed
And my Angel says that I should be proud
Willing to accept all commendations
In that it's all good....





On Leviticus 3:4 (check this out)

Of fat and of loins and of caul and of flanks
For notes and for coins
I give my God a million and one thanks
As this peace offering is preferred to be as a male without blemish
In its quality and consistency
Where she tells me to keep my head warm
Viewing on the previous evening a sky of orange and pink
To serve as a new way to predict my storm
Uttering my supplications to slow down a tad
So I can capture my continence
Of mind, of fat and of loins and of caul and of flanks....
