Body of Knowledge
the source of all knowledge
comes from our body
perceiving the world
numbered senses:
measured, felt, and documented
or remembered fogottens:
longed for, loved and intuitive
Week 27, Day 186 – “Body of Knowledge”
Week 27, Day 185 – “Wilder-ness”
Wilder-ness
the amount to which
you are more wild
than someone other
to be taken note
by opposite sex
who’s interested
to have a good time
Week 27, Day 184 – “White Space”
White Space
lots of plain white space
around all my little words
nothing negative about it
poems and screenplays
look good to me on a page
Week 27, Day 183 – “All You Need”
All You Need
lennon singing “All You Need is Love”
on the YouTube video
as I surf the net
looking for something to do
and a reason to be
I don’t think that I’ll find love
by buying brides or dating sites
but maybe I’ll find something
to keep me occupied until
life’s lucky accident come calling
Week 26, Day 182 – “Nobel Prize”
Nobel Prize
I won the Nobel Prize today
for the books that I am going to write
they will all be wonderful
critical and popular successes
that will be read for generations
made into movies
and provide inspiration and despair
for future college students
Week 26, Day 181 – “Flippin’ Out”
Flippin’ Out
throw the blue gills
in the boat bottom
and they’ll flip out.
put a sleeping man’s hand
in the water boil
and he’ll flip out
put a sane kid
in the crazy house
and sure enough, she’ll flip out
Week 26, Day 180 – “Semi-Circle”
Semi-Circle
half a way a round the globe
semi-circular navigation
faster still would be to dig
and make my way
through crust, mantle, core
all the while singing Soul Coughing
and thinking of Yogi
Week 26, Day 179 – “Love Is Not Down”
Love Is Not Down
love is not down
beneath, ready to rise up
from the gray asphalt
of the paved roads,
and love is not up
love is not a bird
looking down on us and watching
waiting eagle-eyed ready to swoop
love is just an accident
that smacks us on the face
as we are walking
down the wooded path
Week 26, Day 178 – “Sky”
Sky
no sky
just dust
been so long since I’ve seen blue
I feel it but don’t see it
just white
white sky, walls, rocks
sometimes grey
Week 26, Day 177 – “OK”
OK
I’m OK
or at least I’ll be OK
OK
Okay Dokay
best day of my life OK
Oklahoma is OK
Go
OK Go
dance on treadmills
and in back yards
OK to be cool
you fool
KO’d by Mike Tyson
not so OK in the morning
O’ say can you be O’ kay
I’ll be OK
after that
matt
OK?
