the upinishad's revelry

scrape a knee
wound the flesh
dance about in ridicule
how do you measure up?
do you smell?
I mean have a scent,
These are a few of my many smells
and the Milkmen dance
Is word association a talent?
Is it a curse of intellect?
It is something to cast aside
like a commercial
being pompous in it's velvet flavor
tasting the grit and grind and grade
of sharp particles
waiting to be the pearl
move on
glide on
glisten glide
know that I am gone
I don't want the pearl
life is much more precious than
that
me
or
you
it is more than we know
