Everyone has

Secrets

I suppose

Given time

I have mine

They feel lonely

Though I imagine

There are always

Other people

At least

The other ones

Affected

x

But it feels lonely

All the same

And even though

They might

Go back

They feel aged

As if I could only

Have such things

When I

Am old

Or as any

Age this way

With more time

For wondering

x

The circumstances

Have passed

Mostly long ago

And that’s something

Maybe an ingredient

For

A recipe

For eating isolation

x

Enticed

To tell

Is an easier thing

To forego

Some weariness

In life

Makes it so

x

That I

Don’t want to

Realize the energy

And

All the pain up high

Again

And then

As it drops through

Me

x

Maybe

Rolling then

Sliding

To the deep and

As you know

The darker parts

Of Freudian-

Or Jungian-

Chemicaled water

To push through

Or tread

In bouts

For endurance

Again

x

I will say this

That

When reminded

What I carry

That I could lose

All secrets

In the light

And lose

All these

Damnable burdens

Sounds pretty good

Sounds pretty

Light

Habilin

Habilin

 

A golden ring

A sword by a lady

Genie in the lamp

 

Silver kept by first

People before

John Reed could

Claim the hero’s

Steed

 

Who keeps the

Holy Grail?  Who

Killed Cock Robin

 

And, more soberly,

Black Dahlia?

 

Where is Jimmy

Hoffa?  Where

Did D. B. Cooper

Fall?   What

Happened to the

Mary Celeste

And Flight 19?

 

And where is the

Key to my hidden

Heart?

 

I don’t know

Much about holy

Relics, enigmatic

Personages,

Famous mysteries;

 

About secrets,

Well, I’ve kept a

Few—I’d rather

Not have had to

 

To children,

Secrets make

Innocent mischief;

 

Later, for safety

Sake, they might

Be exigent even

Into years

 

But, finally,

When the glass

Is no longer

Darkly, when we

Shall see with

Clarity

 

And all shall be

Known face to

Face,

 

On that day I

Shall be

Relieved, for

Heavy chore

Has been

Reliving secrets

 

 

(First Corinthians 13:12)

powwords

powwords

 

words levy power like

wizards casting spells in lore

 

words do take over

especially with nothing left

 

when everything has failed

and utterance remains

 

we are words

we are made of words

 

well we are not

though it can feel that way

 

do you know the secret

word that elicits gnostic will

 

do you know the word

that can heat a frozen spirit
