A Pauper's Luxury – beat56

October 20, 2020

nepenthd’ nectard’

 

addiction is its own universe
galaxies of tired sad withdrawals
faint red suns of indifferent drugs
waiting for the entrancd’ hour
the illuminatd’ flourishing declines
and the need and loss of the
unseen behindlife attempts to call
again the ordinary hours yawn and
sneeze

Prologue prolongd’ death hours
mourn moribund for the ageless
time of nepenthd’ nectard’ and
escape from the ordinary lowly to
the spirit of the spheres

 

the muse strikes back

 

Smoke for morning tea
recreational substance
induced disorder
generation
uncopceptualized concluding
enlightenment
concluding
enlightenment
mundane
enlightenment
this sad pause
melancholic silent
even in company man
drugs of solitude
chemical meditation
the muse strikes back

 

adown

 

beat powder
to get antiquity high
warm sweet breath of
past sublimity
adown
such alone
even in company
dreadful ease from
the dread full waking unease
poison your
own life
herb honey
wrecked wretched
logic of dreams

 

Racing the Ordinary Speed Indian Summer Sundays

 

a sleeping poppy
the expense of spirit
divine despair
excess of pleasure
impatient sorrow
addict masterpiece
make an end
spirit on the heights
racing the ordinary speed
Indian summer days

 

treed’

 
cannabis mercy
but I ran too slow
expiates
opiates
dying days
living death poetry
in a diamond powder
