The Fibbing Bell and the Flutterby
A collection of oscillating Fibonacci poems
Locked
in
blinking
frequency,
he recounted life
through letters paced by visitors,
moving sans movement
from the one
eyelid
left
him
—
Squint-
through
shutters
expose the
spectral pos- and neg-
itive iterations of sight:
beauty and horror
dancing in
dust-striped
scant
light
—
Mind
those
awake,
currently
experiencing
currents of waking dream escapes
while sipping vague days
from dry faith,
to stay
their
fates
—
Patch
or
prevent
processes
that produce plastic particles
with permanent and
pulmonate
reper-
cus-
sions
—
We
the
people
must right the
long wrongs racism
wrought in founding this wobbling plot —
what is still not healed
reveals lost
ideals
a
lot
—
I
pray
AI
will not vie
for my livelihood,
likeness or lifetime liberties,
instead being an
auto-mate
for growth
and
art
—
It
could
be that
Adam and
Eve misperceived when
God spoke with them about the tree,
as they were cast of
Eden’s clay —
earthen
ear
wax
—
Meet
me
with grace
in that place
where dreams coincide
and grow inside reality —
we can, together,
imagine
what is
to
be
