Poem #338 for Karen Cigna

 

Screaming in joyful rage

Running full speed until muscles explode

Taking my hand
plunging it deep into my veins
and creating a masterpiece for the world from
the blood I release

Kissing someone so deeply, trying to climb inside of them

Tearing up for no reason other than not having any
other way to exude my joy

Taking a breath so deep that my ribs crack
feeling all existential energy
holding it in my lungs

Waking poor, homeless, sick, alone, debilitated
and wanting nothing else but to smile and keep pushing forward

Forgiving the condemned
understanding that the spirit of perfection lies just as
strong in those who endlessly condemn me

Dancing in a typhoon
…Hearing music in catastrophe
…Poetry in purgatory

Staring into a pair of eyes
that refuse to look away
and reading all the secrets of the world
