Peace, Women, Bliss, Clouds

Beautiful daybreak written in cloudpuffs,
If I speak to you through the trees, will you
Respond? Will you tell of where you’ve come from
and how are things over that way padam
padam padam Will you tell me of it
and when I grow, I’ll remember my youth,
spent chasing rainbows through anchored
down hallways, over staircases, and cruel
mockeries. And now that I return in a spiral
engraved with reverse quantities of bliss
bliss that springs from every tip of Life count
of unlimited numerals, Love, Pride, Peace,
Dignity for my People, women, girls,
in the Borderlands States and POET’S RIGHTS.

Jump! If it’s spice you were seeking, that was It! C/s

Microfiber miniscule—is it you
digitalis modos de comprende?
Pues, amigo understand. A cruel Ghoul
gets Bank for your dreams and Love. No wonder
you hate me. You misperceive my goal
and think it should take me longer to score
a sonnet. So mine’s a little (or a lot) rattled.
It’s still got its writhing. Do not mistake
the Original Conception of verse.
Against Vice did it wage its best Defenses.
I’m sorry. I’ve done it again. Here comes
the Volta without any twine but a Plank
for a High Dive I’ve brought it along: Jump!
If it’s spice you were seeking, that was It!

Beauty is whatever Cost can’t be Forsaken

The fine art of desire requires
stitches in beautiful letters that’re
trimmed once and twice then five times again
before there is something called a Sonnet.

What is the point of talking about it?
Poetry so what. It’s actually weird.
I don’t want some of that crap. Me either.
Does it care that none hopes it appears?

--Consider what I ask myself a lot:
Poems are just a faster way to trouble,
and give enemies what they need to smear
me further. Why do I teach what demeans me?

C’est l’ars pour l’ars? Once again: Beauty
at whatever Cost can’t be Forsaken

SHADRACH VERSES MACHISMO:INTERCULTURAL DISCSPINS

SHADRACH VERSES MACHISMO:INTERCULTURAL DISCSPINS

--after Joan Jett

Machismo doesn’t want to know
macho macho macho macho…
Joan Jett: I’m Vibing your Macho
Song. “It ain’t about your Ego! Noise?
That ain’t nothing New! If you could
only see yourself.” As I do shamed
by your actions too late to be Human
again. Lawyers and Muses? Who
is who? What Fun has this Mousie
your Tractor mowed Over. Over
goes Verse to make Fruits
with its Knowledge and Winter Chill.
To Speak as Browning did to MAKE
REAL the False Philosophies
Of “If there is Sound No one Hears…”
Shadrach, Shadrach, I am that Man.

An Authentic Life in the Fringes: A Philosophical PriceTag and a Gun

An Authentic Life in the Fringes,
Oh La La La I'm a Modern among
Primitives Pesky Mental Monsters,
their Supreme Reasons, Rationales,
and Investments of False Dogmas
in Sound Alpbabetique! A CrapLoad
of Viliterate Venereal Vices
in Suppression of Purpose and Reason
Imagination is Prone to Sovereign
Souls whose Internal Worth has no Price
Tag that's not Paid in Currency
based on Morals Actions. Silence A Gun?
You're wearing some Floods from Crotchedy
Squalors of 20 Cent Pipe Streams.
Defiendennse en la Frontera donde
el Permiso fue Violado por el Femicidio
Mounstro Malicioso Sin Caridad. Ya Estufas

Despair, Terror, and Mental Violence. What you Inlaid in my Thoughts Back at You!

Manifiesto Anthropoliwogolo: What you Have Back at You! c/s

Good ol Reginald Horseman gave it Straight
Up: Eugenicists have always enjoyed Tenure

Blacks, Single Moms, Autistic, or Impaired.

A Vain Oppressor , Academy Oh!
You have pushed one too Many Times Mobbers!
And made a Professor into a Mime
that Recovers and Reverses Each Word

of Hate for the Shame of your RedNecks So
Sublime is My inspiration. Let’s see

Peace Fights just as Hard as Hate: Maximum Heat NT’s! Disabled? WTF!

EMPTY NT’s

I salute you. You are as Perfect as You
Can Be…Not like a Poem once Grown Up
That can never be Straightened, Editors
There’s no Correction to your Hate Rage

For the Pole of your Normalism seems
more a Pole for Extremism than Dance
And without that Glamour and Radiance
(anAtomically Speaking This is True)

I must Live and Living Endure NT's!
No Worse Distortion than your PreJudice
And Bias that you don't trouble to shade.
This is why my Blissful Freedom I Won

Blissful Freedom with no Sickos or Perves!
In my BaUhaus my Bohemia...Edie!
De todas Maneras Vino de Roja Tinta,
El Color de las COmunistas que se Yo!

No soy MarXista,,,hay OdioS que Ellos
Me Dejan Sufrir por ser su Iconografia.
Ya Estufas Liberales Falsos Machistas
y sin Suficiente para una Yegua Ya Basta!

Y por la ultima Vez, que se Callen
para Dormir bien un Futuro con
Conciencia Limpia. Porque yo Cobro!
Y en pagar esa Deuda, te Salvas.

Latina Poetry as Humanitarian Feminism: Women's Rights

REVERSE SUPPRESSION OF MY RIGHTS: Mother Father


Dejeenlo que se olvide de me querer para dejarme
Que me muera con mi pena y mi orgullo
Ser Mujer que escucha a Alicia, a Lila, a Lorna.
Latinas, what are we if not a Revolving Muse
who’ve inspired a War to Change the World
according to Humanitarian Feminism?
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah I’m Comfortable with my
Charms, my Intersectional Analysis, a Ring
or Not on my Finger, a passion for Books,
Books, Books….I love to Read and to Think
and to be Free. If I were Dulcinea to a Fool
like my Don Quixote I was too the Teller
of not One Thousand but Endless Infinitesimally
Intricate Verses….A Machine of Words? Small
Stature of Momentous Forces, a Filigree
as of Lace, built in Black Oil forged and with
Feathers…A Changling am I that Observes
My Mistaken Birth, Dr. Asperger, you Know
My Name: I’m Autism Unveiled. Rhythms
of Life are set to my Specifications: Flower
Powder I inhaled, a GoldenSeal Tea, Sí Mami
me lo tome como Usted me Dijo que lo hiciera.
Ahora espero con Ansias que regresaramos
A Platicar de tu Vida, Mamá y de Mis ancestros.

Like Ted Hughes when he told Sylvia You're your Subject.

What's it like for you to Feel the Scales
of a Just Word? Je pense qui I Know How
through Reverse Analogy.  I Felt Full
Strength the Burn Sensation, High and Low

did they Lacerate me top to Bottom
when the Stalker did stare at my Thighs and Loins
and obliged me to accept a Dyed Cloth.
Forced Romance between Giraffe and Lion.

"Take your Position in the Safari



I'm the Predator. You are my Quarry."
A True Transcript from African Lineage
enacted with Colonial Privilege

To Tell of Woes in Academia. Like Ted Hughes
when he said, Sylvia You're your Subject.

when all her Oppressors Claimed their Tokens.She is more than a Hero who Stands Strong

--for Dolphin P and Dolphin E 

She is more than a Hero who stands Strong
against the Vicissitudes of the Mind
that Push and Pull and Scatter all her Songs--
their Rhymes, Muses, and Sacraments.
Where, where have all the Puzzle Pieces Gone?
Why, why, why have the Sonnets become Changlings--
swapped at Birth by their Treasonous Brothers?
She is more than a Hero with Siblings
gone Berserk to seek their Submissive Shade.
Afraid, they Forgot their own Primary
obligation: to Fair Play on Level
Grounds! Those! where I was Hunted by their Hounds!
She is more than a Hero who Stands Strong
when all her Oppressors Claimed their Tokens.

Little Girl Christ born in Emergency's HoursFrom this Vantage a Pa PaNoRama a Clear Spring of Changing Times can be Heard.

From this Vantage a Pa PaNoRama
where Water SPrings can Changing times be Heard.
--LIttle girl Christ born in Emergency's Hours:

"Things weren't always this Way. Yes, they were
Disappointing but SomeThings ... Well I've not  
seen Things like them before:   Explanations
for the kinds of sickness are in a book
that describes all of the requirements  
and the Onsets of Symptoms." 


"but Who knows
how to help so they don't do that again?" 


 Well, the Patients have to have Treatments
and Illness is evolving every day.


(The DSM Manual is updated periodically)


Count down from ten. Return to your Meadow.
You can even write a Poem to the Girl.

you strike like Pluto whose Planet is Not.

I recreate what You say by no Choice
of mine. Wouldn't I rather be Free as Birds
of all Stripes and Colors? See my Feathers:
They were burned in Attacks that forced my Voice.
Violeta, Sylvia, Delmira, Julia,
mis Hembras soy de su tribu AmorSer
Libre de la Tristeza Oscura ser martir
del Mundo en que mi Madre fue Esclava
So, here I am, my window half-Blinded
to endure the truths of Burning Energy
that Incinerates the humble Refuge-
seekers. That is my Trouble with you, Crude
Insensitive World, by your Mighty Shots
you strike like Pluto whose Planet is Not.

una cadena enredada en la
Paz del Cerebro. Unica
Palabra, te Calmaras
si te doy toda mi existencia?

For my Student who Escaped Abuse

Whaddya do when you have a student
who’s domestically abused? Do you give
extra time, extra credit, a real chance
for her to have a good future, to leave
him by her books, her studies, and her brains?

I watch her as she gathers her backpack,
laughs lightly with a shadow in her eyes.
The others joke around while happy
messages spark from their hearts and smiles.

She’s got her own style to pass time, count
down to freedom, peaceful nights, studying
without fear, suspicions, keeping a low
profile. Each lecture she learns a new
device to write her way to dignity.
