My Interests |

1 the reintroduction of the american timberwolf to cry and howl across the mid-west wilds stalking grey packs outlined against the horizon with reflective eyes to startle passing cars gives me hope for the future of poets. though cattlebarons disagree with shotgun antics. 2 the gutters of kerouac are the gutters of levy are the gutters of whitman are the same gutters as yours are the same gutters as mine which are the gutters of the world; we're all on our backs, stargazing. 3 there is a sound made when she opens her mouth exhaling, a long, slow mystery of life that shudders along the collarbone (where vibrating, it becomes honesty). 4 this is important: you are all divine. angels found in the details of living and i am watchful of the tilt of yer halos. 5 i am built with faultlines darling; every time you make me tremble the world realigns oh so slightly. 6 i chase moments inside of movements stopping at every roadside attraction, balls of twine, giant frying pans, scenic views; there is a truth to small town diners, so if i'm late, be patient, i'm bringing you coffee. 7 the trick to uncovering mysteries is enjoying every inch of it when the world hikes up her skirt during the act of seduction. (the mystery of collarbones though should remain unknowable) 8 after a long day of writing or drawing there is no feeling left in the fingertips; pen pressure leaves lingering numbness and i feel like a hypocrit. 9 minutes, hours, days all pass, but this moment remains extending its possibilities. 10 wasn't born to be rich but to wake restless and reckless reaching for pens through dreams, to lay about in backyards framing half moons in fingers to be and love and live and count pennies into the night. 11 lost my innocence at sixteen rolling through arizona highway heat my car seat sighing at gas station departures, holding dear my form in anticipation of revealing the next mile marker. 12 drove my old toyota mini-van 100 mph east out of the colorado rockies through midnight kansas towns that slept in the knowledge of safty while tired cows grazed sage-like on the reflected moons of farm ponds. 13 i slept among soft curves when younger- can still tell you the rhythm of her breath, the memory of fingers resting on breasts. (is there a wisdom in that?) 14 made a day of it once, sat and read through your poems, my hand along the spine of your words, learned to ache with every verb as though the idea of action had never occured to me before. 15 more than a rock in my stomache creation leaves me a restless sleeper; ink the jasmine of my eyes blooming petals at two AM, bending to pale light revalations. 16 the soreness of foot soles has become an expression of faith that leaves me genuflecting at entries awaiting the absolution of door knobs. 17 scratch scratch scrath, "i am digging a hole in you daddy," and off to play with building blocks. 18 poker games contain truths hidden in muscle tics and hand motions; she played with the hair across her face just prior to exhaling, "yes". 19 writing at this very moment i'm reminded of eighteen years old on that first date with krista, the importence of muse realized leaving me speechless on her couch. i eventually found my voice. 20 speaking of muses: i love you, darling. i've been rewriting this poem since that very first day. 21 endless bottles of fat tire ale talking about all those girls, the girls we knew and sweated over, all the ones we hoped to meet the world spinning on an axis of redheads 22 time has only one secret full of high expectations and constantly moving. 23 the ink well running dry, twenty two poems in three days. well. my hands tremble at the idea of your chin, that fine china fraility of voice: you are india, rich with mythology and far away. 24 i'm quite mad you know. i regret blinking chew my fingernails chase the curves of necks obsess over random scents and grassblades between toes. 25 i keep looking for the answer to the question of my insomnia at the bottom of endless coffee pots. 26 woke to the memory of dream today and no pen handy to capture it so even that final arch is fading now. i'm sorry. 27 there was an ice storm kansas city in 1986 when the whole world froze over and i swung a bat at the front yard tree found numbness through the pain. these goodbyes are winter afternoons waiting for the feeling to return 28 fingertips across thighs like lockpicks in trembling hands still learning the art of entry. she opened the door regardless. 29 a good portrait is the struggle of orchids. -JJ, 2006 |
