Pygmalion

 Pygmalion

Someone challenged me to write like I used to write before the rod entered my spine to walk me straight to the job that was going so

I would I like champagne & caviar it’s beyond my budget but life is beyond my budget a little Lord Byron flows through her veins & she’s the only one for me ideology works today despite its nonsense-value perhaps because if we were straight up our pants would fall down my breath my breath he gasped but her sex felt like “god” & the painting was peeling like infinities on a wafer a lifer thought a snail a friend it was pleasant not rushing for once

the songs ’ve stopped it said my dear you look a little blistered or is that pistons? The wherewithal was combatant like the moon & I swooned hence found out as non bona fide carrion for her lace that framed her spider inside her & then the men of the slogan shot automatically & rather only asked questions & offered nothing as to their mood swings after all they were punchline drunk like blinded men.

In a very unorthodox way

  In a very unorthodox way # (For Max Sometimes) In a very unorthodox way, I’m an Irish Catholic. Of course, in terms of Belfast politics that MEANS something. & while that maybe true – in Australia, for different reasons, as Fr Bob Maguire put it – when Mary first saw Jesus walking out of the tomb on day 3 of his death, she exclaimed “JESUS!!!” – the first time his name was used as a swear word. In that way of an irreverent joke, REVERENTIAL & ORTHODOX are not my way to the Sacred/Love*. For me – I’m not really into Theology – as Max Sometimes quoting me, quoting my mate Richard, quoting Bob Marley, quoting Rasta elders, said today “who feels it knows it.” & I believe that if I am to write my Mass/Symphony of Hope/Love, I must include at least one blasphemous hymn, else the vision depicted be simplistic, like George Handel’s Messiah. The Hope/Love represented or perhaps alluded to (if you prefer) must include genuine despair, dejection, transgression else it...

Love

  Love   Some people exude a loving energy Like Mary & you feel transformed From your woes & spleen & love is woken in you   They made no mistake when they named her Light floods you when you’re with her & though she struggles to find words Now she’s 91 years old She loves all the more Like the unknowable name of God   Like that Indian girl People would visit To receive wisdom & healing Just by her presence She locates the good in me & I feel so much better About being alive   She reminds me That I can play that role for others That I can let go of the grief, the hurt & let go of the rage   She reminds me of my mission To bring truth & light Through the darkness & show the path to follow For other lost people    & that the love she exudes Is as much a reflection of my love That I had forgotten I possessed     Published ...
