Atrocious verse of silence
and toad of nothingness
atrocious page where the wind is silent
territory isolated from melancholy
treasures of insomnia and the plain of silence
over which the rain and words fails
and the wind destroys everything except the word
-Leopoldo Maria Panero
Radia
My heart is elsewhere camouflaged by the
poetic phantom power
church of clarity eminence front
cardinal lamentation dwell
melancholy body sacrilege
tattoo highway insomnia punk equinox
superhorse transfiguration tesseract
deacon anarchy untitled child
and the night ocean I neglected to mention

this is quite interesting….there is a certain planned chaos exhibited by the poet…and in the poem it shows us how sometimes are creations are like that to hide the real emotion…we throw up many red herrings…lead the readers in all directions…and keep them from the poetic truth…that we would rather keep undiscovered. I like the whole Tattoo part…but feel it more figuratively than literally…our hearts are often tattooed by our relationships…and those are hard to erase as we try to move forward.
