Tides Of Our Ocean Mind

Tides Of Our Ocean Mind

I find the natural history of my soul 
as primal star-glitter of the First Flash 
in crystal geodes of the agate stone 
that reflects memories of ancestral brains 
woven in tangled genes of my sponge brain 
that pulses with tides of our ocean mind. 

Crouched by twisted pine on snow-frosted shore, 
I become wild gush of the mountain stream 
that sings ten thousand years about true love 
based on the clumsy way I interact 
with people who perceive me every day, 
so I walk ten thousand miles to the sky. 

Because pines know the reason I was born 
they dream the way I walk beyond my death 
since ferns are growing from my bloody chest 
in jeering sunlight of uncoupled time, 
so I eat raspberries from thorny vines 
to prove Pain cannot find my naked soul. 

With twisted finger of perpetual hope 
I write long treatise in forest-floor dirt 
discussing existential truth of roots 
in complex theory on meaning of time 
that unwinds mute surprise of ringing bells 
at pungent scent of mushrooms in wet soil. 

From gaunt-faced hunter in dark primal woods 
to noble well-fed king in castle court, 
I paint enormous canvas of my trip 
in winding maze of myths beyond my grave 
to chat with alligators in the swamp 
who work as lawyers in my new regime. 

Hysteric laughter of the Apple Witch 
startles me awake from ominous dream 
to calculate thematic drone of faith 
when planes crash burning in the field of wheat 
to prove we understand how Death unbinds 
spirits from brains of unbroken desire. 

In solidarity with distraught hawks, 
wounded soldiers draped in the red-cross flag 
walk stuck in loop of the lunar eclipse 
that conceals the road home to paradise 
though they study patterns of weird behavior 
based on channels of television shows. 

Nervous with melancholy of lost faith 
on leather couch before three cameras, 
I answer questions on meaning of life 
with language of rocks polished by the sea 
on the late-night television talk show 
which beams atoms of my soul to your heart.
