My dilemma

My dilemma

How do I get from me

To Ellison?

His writing

Was so tighten

In its structure.

How the hell do I reach that plateau

Without losing the academic

Prowess.

Feeling and energy of such art is my cross to bare.

Because it lies in contrary to

Academic structure.

To me the music

In literature is found in Ralph Ellison writings.

If I had been able to do anything but write

I would be a musician.

A physician of notes

That carried boats and boats

Across the river

To deliver its message upon the

Banks of the big city.

John Coltrane

These cold-trains
of thoughts
causes conniption fits
across my cerebral cortex.
I wish to lie down
in the vortex
of warm actions.
Contractions from unspoken
verbal interactions
derived from venus's
flytrap.
Can you feel the rhythm
of the night,
the nights twilight
has burned a hole
into the soles of my feet.
I keep tapping,
enjoying the flow
of fluidity from the Sex.
I mean Sax,
for it reaches to such a heights and stays there .

Worlds of Creativity Seem bigger than the Mind

Sounds of gray
move through my atmosphere,
which I fear translates into music,
but no words.
Whispers,
only of notes that leaves
its mark on my thoughts.
I bought wine in order
to translate them.
The jazz had changed my focus
I wanted to feel my space
like locusts.
And touch the clouds.
I just wanted to understand how
it feels to cry,
and fly higher than I expected.
But the words never get me there,
So now,
I spare none,
They run along this sentence
with reckless abandonment,
opposing all editors,
or judgments in general.
I am now just trying to translate
and condense onto a plate
what goes on
into the head of a man
trying to live and love life's
changes in all it's forms.
