| Dream Of A Woman In Snow Posted: 2/9/2006 3:14:21 PM | Dream Of a Woman In Snow (© Black Mary poems 1998-2006)
I awake in a waking dream In the blue-gray color Of four o’clock in the morning
About me, the house has dissolved, No walls and I lie open in an open field Of snow brilliant blue fire Frozen with the photon blood Of a hundred thousand suns Across the long day’s sky
I am not alone Nearby, neighborhood dogs Come tail-wagging, A family of rabbits sits, ignored
From the branches of dusted trees Owls call out
Look! There!
A woman standing Shirtless in the snow Hip-cocked, flirt-dancing Non-Euclidean coquette She is singing:
See my joy! I am a gypsy, a laughing woman See how my breasts shine out Like the bald heads Of two laughing Buddhas Like two hats on top of the world My joy! | |

| Dream Of A Woman In Snow Posted: 2/9/2006 3:19:13 PM | I had to replace the phrase "hips cocked" with "hip-cocked" in the above poem to get it by the goddamn censors. Fuckin' ridiculous. I guess you can't****a gun or hear a****crow

| I apologize Posted: 2/10/2006 7:06:59 AM | | I apologize for my use of profanity and bad attitude in the above post. But I still don't understand why some words like peckersnot for example make it in and others like hip****d don't. | |

| Kentucky Snow Poem Posted: 2/12/2006 2:42:44 AM | Kentucky Snow Poem (© Black Mary poems)
There are times when I’d put my faith In poetry over science For instance Take that snow bank there Put your hand in it Do you feel it like warm silk Those are the dreams of children Lost to the plague in Milan…14th century Dreams not dreamed Come down with the snow
All these centuries they’ve been Riding the wind in the interstices Waiting in the collective for Someone…to receive them
And the mind of science Understands this Like it understands God’s tennis shoe
But the mind of poetry knows Because…
Tonight there is a pod of whales One of which is albino Exactly midway Between Milan and Kentucky Which is Where we are now Which is Where the new snow Comes down in fever | |

| Postcard To Tallahassee Posted: 2/14/2006 6:34:39 PM | Postcard To Tallahassee ((c) Black Mary poems)
My heart awakens subversive late in the afternoon in the city growing shadows I press to my forehead the words:
Tiger wing and monarch
To remember you on that oyster road to the lighthouse of butterflies at St. Mark’s
You see…
An exterior gentleness is something I’d like to cultivate
Perhaps like Stendhal tracing the initials of his women in the sands along the Seine
I can see the irony in what you once tried to reveal but you had me confused with a future form of myself…
…slow elliptical wind spiraling like winter leaves | |

Sometimes In the morning time When you were most unguarded When there was only your giving That was when I felt Your lace kisses melt on me Like snowflakes in warm air In those moments I felt the rush Of your existence Run through me As if I had lived another life As if I had been someone else | |

| Miracle Of A Woman Posted: 2/15/2006 9:58:00 PM | Miracle Of A Woman
This morning, my fountain Of small white worlds Adorned the fruit of your breasts You became high Moving a level or two Above Stretched out female Sheet of woman the swan Of hip, bone lines, and pelvis I felt the narcotic sigh of sex Waves move through your spine Deep into henna silk fire Burning wet In your holy lands
I told you You were beautiful I told the truth | |

| Miracle Of A Woman Posted: 2/15/2006 11:50:40 PM | "Postcard To Tallahassee" was exquisite. Don't know how I've missed this thread till now. Will have to go back to the beginning and read through, but when I have more time, to give it justice. | |

| If You Really Knew-Would It Matter? Posted: 2/20/2006 5:06:52 AM | If You Really Knew-Would It Matter? (© Black Mary poems)
Animals have their devices For enlarging themselves My cat runs an electric current Through her formidable tail To be ready for the World
It is Monday The eagle unchains the dawn By way of inspiration I read Another passage from The Autobiography of a Flea Heading out I vault Across thoughts of you Long as the Brooklyn bridge. In mid-air I become Aware Of a desire for Tortillas Of twilight and chrysanthemums Wondering how long Before I reach the other side? | |

| I Discourse With A Genius Of French Literature, Meditation, And Mathematics Posted: 2/20/2006 10:34:33 AM | I Discourse With A Genius Of French Literature, Meditation, and Mathematics (© Black Mary poems) She was one of those types As Dostoevsky would’ve said That just had to be better than you.
She was a spiritual master Of transcendental mediation Levitating at will Through your living room
We were giving her a ride From Destin to Tallahassee In the night through The entire history of The pine tree panhandle As I knew it
Tomorrow, she would go with Beth and Someone else To meditate for a nominal fee
En route she discovered I was A mathematician By coincidence so was she Before getting her Ph.D. In French Literature
Before selling real estate She was a mathematician Simply by virtue Of knowing Calculus
I asked her who her guy in French Lit was And she replied:
Pierre Louys-But you wouldn’t know him
I'll never forget the way Beth gasped But I had to ask :
Pierre Louys! Didn’t he write that book “She-Devils” ? You know the one all about ass-fucking?... That guy under the stairs and that family of whores? | |
