Past the Sanctum


From when it is mundanely cloudy,
  that long pause
of the balcony
   clinging all by itself
to the murmur
   of the passing wind...

       underlying
  concoctions to which
    my ears
 are as rhetorically irrelevant
   as licked spoons
 
   i stagger irretrievably
past,the usual
  scrimmage,about
 the infinitely heightening
     pleasures of
  watching the neighbour
   lady milk her tits...

  1. Ha! The ending was a stunner. Love the line about licked spoons. I imagine, if we knew how much of what we did and said and thought was irrelevant, we might decide on permanent hibernation. Fortunately, we are too vain and full of ourselves most days, to consider such a thing :)

    Long pause on the balcony sounds so welcome to me.

  2. Annie,
    You're right..irrelevance has formed its own space around us...A long pause on the balcony would sound welcome to me too...but this is a mere recreation...it has been a long time coming...
