Feathers and Fancy

Photo/Poem 1 Minute 
 Dreamless and lost
 in a mind of feathers and fancy;

 headless
 without ceiling,
 nonsense drenched with
 the unhinged conviction of
 solidified knowing.

 No, no;
 it’s heedless 
 yoyo disintegration
 of runaway spirits
 scattered in the ceaseless tock
 of arhythmic time.
 
 Electrical metaphors,
 impulsive,
 unstable,
 but oh so pretty;
 previously seen  in the spastic dance
 of St Vitus gone a rye,
 
 unplugged
 in a 3:00 AM
 torpor.
