The Body, an Ailing Universe

Mike Brennan

The horizon appears malnourished
washed-up
muted & tangled
in shear jet-black promise

Segregating the daze that surrounds my day

until all possibility is revealed with the
eventual rise of the evening

Like a porcelain doll shattered in a second
my psyche becomes psychedelic
&
splashes my excesses like blood
all along a murder victim’s wall

I am sorry I killed you with my travels and separations

Your forehead is always the perfect place where my lips land when I dream

So where are the stars?

The fireworks? The encore? The fantastic farewell?

O’ yes,
They all drowned

In my liver’s love of whiskey & wanton nights.
In the sea’s hunger for sailors & landscapes still undiscovered yet.
In my eyes’ silkscreen of immorality & forgetful sex.

I still remember. . .

I somehow
Can’t
Stop remembering.
