Vineyard Of My Heart

I drive across the desert of my heart
to find two-headed monster of despair
dancing among stars on the mountain peak
while drinking blood of humans killed in war,
then steal every photograph ever snapped
and mold them into golem of lost souls.

I wander in the vineyard of my heart
spoiled by frost of inadequate respect
contrived by thieves with legal strategies
to ambush angels on the bridge of lies
based on procedures scientists devise
to unspool stories of heroic fools.

I set fire to garbage heaps of my heart
through lamentation for the injured god
who clutches scroll of invisible faces
that spiral within frame of reference
from contradiction of spectral libraries
stuck in congruent absence of false words.

I release serene demons of my heart
reflected on surface of fraught conceits
that serve as unreasonable substitute
though nothing is guaranteed to be real
from speculation reduced to kind jokes
based on skepticism of proven facts.

I critique meaningless plays of my heart
that present subjective degrees of being
through evolutionary leap of faith
contained by flirtatious malaise of friendship
mixed with abstract rituals of shrewd denial
counterclockwise from arrogant respect.

I wash capacious window of my heart
from perimeter of contagious passion
spoiled by false information no one sells
better than the monster in flowing rivers
whose riddles duplicate difficult truths
as ladder to indeterminate planes.

I wander roomless palace of my heart
to unseal reliable evidence
that we are golems of backward deferral
just awakening from sequence of dreams
where bodies proliferate from slime pools
because lines converge at infinity.

I measure boundless gardens of my heart
without empathy for fame-addled winners
who sell their memories to the highest bidder
with grand tales of assumed identities
commensurate with theology of pride
exposed by sorrow of aspiring angels.

Orpheus studies strange vagaries of the human heart to understand demonic influence that duende wields in words honed by love.
