The floor shined with the sparkle of the future
The oversized t.v an AI baby sitter
The child infinitely alone
Grand plans for adored son
Inside that heart was space for a warm family
dark floor reflecting the light pouring off distant hills
broad empty spaces inviting meaning at every angle
remote control fell from his hands
longing in his eyes toward the distant windows
from floor to ceiling not a morsel for the soul
The bar was fruit
the intention apricot
beer poured into the vessel
office tired weasel
Watermelon double dating
a city with grand internal spaces
a thousand isolated young yearn vaguely
Like a cocoa bean it was a city of large restaurants
giftshops crowding and bulging along narrow lanes of it
Some of us give fruit after a year and shrivel up
and some of us only give fruit after many years of toil
yet never truly shrivel
City steps fall down across it, catching bouncing berries
Trust is the fruit of good exchange
a plantation of good faith is the underlying system
The circus of local harvests tickles your apetite
the circus of this fruity city tickles your face
flooded with dull grain and obsessed with survival
From the outskirts of the concrete mess
into green chaos
You are the very fruit raising lids on containers
of terrible content
Thus your eyes never escape my abundant words
There´s no steady
Life won´t carry you
Candy is suffering
We can fall from the skyscraper that was a career
purpose smashed and paralyzed on the pavement
Emptiness is cracking jokes at our expence
raining on our grey hair
we´ve given so much
Taste is longing
Our face needs to be painted into the picture
wrinkles, flecks and speckles over hopeful clean eyes
Some lost nephew singing our praises
The grass is too long and summer is closing
Your eyes fill up wth the last sunsets
Pain no longer an enemy
Life is in not so many words a bird
Because divine is the concept of flight
My god is the future
Not the present concept of time
Life is affirmative with exceptions
not one encroaching on the force of abundance
My god is inquisitive and curious
residing in our brains
