The Quiet American
Solemn blues paints a snowy 42nd street
He looks downtown and sees a set of buildings from 1958
The background of a Madison Avenue bourgeois flick
David LaChapelle drowns Tupac in a tub of chains
His brown bold body, like the coffee cake of my honey
The minds eye is open when your naked eyes lay sleeping
Attraction of flame
Spying on the science of fire
Dancing for fame
Icy coated caves it floats through
Like birds coasting in the sky
A black and white life up against your grey hues
Hanging socks, shower floor, toilet box, sail ship, space ship
Towel
You
US
Bright lit blue-skied battlefields
Welcoming grass like sheapskin mats at the end of your bed
Chipping blue stool reminds me of the smell of a place I once called home
Like mental locations
The air chair pops passionate pupils of luxury
Iceberg oculars
Pony-tailed eyelashes
Your denim-patched, delicate, tumultuous heart beats as a bee buzzes
Docked boat, leather belt man
You have the entire netted world in the palm of your hand
that you simply squeeze to relieve stress
Casting a powerful stare out of your glowing sunglasses to nowhere particular
Then casually moves forward
You wear your aura quite well
What else could look so good on you?
Projected films and moon-lit pillow mountains
You’re an anorexic bird for the holidays
Or a Willy Wonka blueberry smoking really old cigarettes to assist enlightenment
You step off the street into the traffic of a floaty device and fruitful tides crashing little clear cups of blue juice on your back where you cannot see its magic
You chase your tail like a foolish dog
The silence before the storm comes and a really gorgeous light blinds my eyes
Tinting the world to look like a 70’s film
Dusty books and hippy hair
Blank stare nudity
Hey! Don’t you think Errol street’s backyard alley is funny?
Kaleidoscopic topics in search of better bop-it’s
I wish to dream in Frida Kahlo’s style of painting
And living
Dazed eyes behind round sunglasses
Beads in your hair, over your bed
I don’t know… what are you anyway?
Just another troublemaker? Another poison? Another psycho?
The quiet Russian walks in a room of hills that look like sand clouds in the direction of a door that will show him all his simple life’s pleasures
Suntanned California
Fake flowers on diner tables
A young couple in love pop like balloons or whiplashed atoms in the crystal freezers of time captured on a Polaroid
Intra-uterine memoirs of candy painted cars and swimming pools
Statues and Kurt Vonnegut paintings
All the links of childhood floating on a mattress suspended over the dirt next to the skyline
The stars in the sky arrange themselves to look like the states on the American flag
The blue man asks what is it all for?
I stare for a long time and leave altered
With eyes that are a little more hypnotic and glint with the glitter of six year olds crowns
Space stuff exhaled to send its thoughts and prayers to the heavens
They grow up to become happy-go-lucky girls and boys at SVA.
