A blind theme
of sensual deliverance

Allison Grayhurst

Opaque but controversial
acts of spiritual courage
        visceral
        cantankerous
It is equally important
how something is given
as to how, or if, it is received
        discarded
        avoided
The summer dung is used up.
Flailing or foraging, we all get used up,
turn old and baffled by the complex amount
of disappointment – not just by one
by everyone.

Then it is murky
and mortality-unbelievable
that things will change into childhood’s ideal.
A choice emerges, to accept without
bitterness, just do the things
that make you happy - child’s play.

For you - that is all it should have to give.
For others?
A shrug to feign indifference
For others
should not be able to give or take inner satisfaction.
Connection.
Cull the fables

Here it is, the butter slab
on the table
pepper spots on the floor
and marmalade
in doses.
