the undefinable

The eternal infant Humm mms:
Be One
The eternal infant speaks:
You are each
a piece of the original eternal
all cracked up into
cyclical alternating opposites
If you balance out
the play will end
And dormancy will creep from year
to year
For you are but specks, stardust flings
finding homes in beating hearts
tasting the dew of tomorrow
scaling rock cliffs hoping to reach me
Eyes searching for patterns
looking to tell you what to do
Hearts broken into shatters
finding your stories are just lies
Since that from whence you come
is clearly ecstasy riding waves
an underlying inflammation
seeping along my merry way
into
The concrete barrier wall
cracks that look like bananas
stains that resemble Jesus
duck-taped rancid boots
dog piss on the terrace
breathe
Empty your pockets
Butterfly your hearts
Close your eyes
Look into the darkness
Don’t stop breathing
The darkness is soft and warm
A welcome blanket after a harsh storm
