Artist's Comment:
Jealousy is always harmful ... usually to the jealous one.
---------------------------------------------------
JEALOUSY
Beneath the honeysuckle hedge,
web-woven from the hammer-head hole
to the spokes wheeled outwards
all of a spinning spiral in a scattered
multiplicity of a myriad mad myselves:
compacted personae in a dire display
of shattered vitreous images.
All eyes, flies’ eyes, spiders’ eyes,
glint and glimmer;
while we linger and listen to a voice
reminiscent of a trod treadle
singer sewing machine
stitching, stitching ….
“I have woven my own web of despair
I, the spider
I, the fly”
Mosaic hedgerow light
moves no more: fades, fades
gives way to anti-light, to dark …
and with a leap, race, quick
my Olympic mind is slick again;
kicked alive,
stirring screwed anger
sifting remorse.
But in these broken mirror shards
gum tears cannot spill
fill instead the dank abyssal well
of bed and bored unease …
[Ah, no …
not bored, No!
Not sad, No!]
With ersatz serenity
and feckless reckless reason
I seal my captivity
and devour myself.

I'm in awe of you're vocabulary and excellent use of it. A twisted and convoluted poem, for a twisted and convoluted emotion.

"I smile becuz I have no idea what's going on...and I'm trying to keep it that way.", she said as she stuck her fingers in her ears and started to sing, "La,la,la,la....La,la,la,la".
