paradise

this hallowed hall
oh,
the sonic boon
booming
and whispered
all deferred dismay
doomed
to some outside solitude
this
sounded defiance
reliant
upon the specter
cardiac
in its calcified cage
the rage, refined
to unwieldy
portrayals,
the veracity apocryphal
so mad,
it must
be true,
unknown
yet, certainty established
this rabble,
this tangled weave of
souls,
of meaning,
some sights seeming

-unavoidable
-divine
-out of time and
-cosmic

caustic of classifiers
unperturbed
the inspired outward lashing,
the uplifting tragedies,
grab hold of
thee,
charming the song along
from
beast, to beast.

at least, we
sing,
our greatest sin, unabashedly
these
dastardly derelictions of
constrictions,
the
relentless fight for well-worn
liberties,
our prophesized, endless
atrophy,
defied-
in melodic, octave or,
harmony.

so,
sing to me,
and see,
the worth of journey,
damned
be destinies.
