extra ordinary

moon man
extraordinaire
maybe too far
out there in
here - the
mind's
eye,
that one
time that
one time
the mind
opened
up & a-
way and
ampersand
play castles
sand monsters
& all the bad dreams.
red glow from false star
mimicing real sunlight,
the flight from reality,
the tangle of a kite
string - the theory
of such things
and memory
falling free
back to me
a new plan
a new scheme
i knew me
a new me
i know me
a me now
arranging,
getting past
the broken urn
of antiguity. churn
and burn words bright
let the word crows take
flight and deliver tales
til dawn never late

internet day-
dreams the
attention of
the planet person by person
delusions of grandeur and a
sloppy mind without an ability
to tie time repeatedly down the
line ... the stars shift and flicker
in the sky as the boxes are put
away (at least in words again)
and the mind evolves as in a
gain perhaps the truth is in
plain view. the poetry of ...

choices.
emotions.
control.
internal
conflict
made
clearer.

a rush of memories and my
fingers type words for me for
them the clients and them
the imaginary women the
real women who will read
in fifty years perhaps and
look back and laugh at
the thousand words
worth at least one
picture. the days,
the decisions,
the conscious
or unintentional
progress of my life
in a certain direction -
alone. a lone figure
figuring on some-
one at some-
point being
just a human
being with no
need to pretend
to be pleased or
understanding
when there is
no under-
standing there
is no over-
standing there
just is ...

an ordinary Extra on set
in the show that was his
own life he saw the punch-
line but refused to draw the
red line and make the change.

no television star, his celestial
reference (point) was particularly
or rather potentially difficult to
comprehend.
addendum.
full stop.
