Limb Ghost (or The Soul Pain Is Not invisible)
Steve Damm
12/1/22
The kind of disappearance
that makes you look
in every shadowed
alley and doorway
in the sand…
…is the same emptiness
that seems to hook
the darkened callow
valleys when lonely
moves your hands.
We taught the chimpanzees to write code
then complained when they took our words away.
That kind of loss will always explode
what remained, it can never be displaced.
It's a haunting reminder of missing limbs you never had.
A ghost screaming, “Be kinder” so loud that it drives you mad.
It’s a chilling definer of what you craved since your birth.
A soul bomb on a live timer deep in radioactive earth.
Cannot be elocuted
Written on the face
Profound, undisputed
and clear as the day.
The kind of dissipation
that makes you burn
alone in shadowed
alley and doorway
in the dark…
…is the same devastation
that seems to turn
the darkened callow
lonely into forays
that leave marks.
We taught the syntheses to write hope
then recoiled when they snatched our hearts away.
That kind of loss will always explode
what remains, it can never be erased.
It's a daunting acceptance to believe the smoke that is self.
An unfeeling resilience so stark that it mirrors hell.
It’s a chilling projection of where your mind can send you.
A life bomb of decadence, twenty years in a tomb
Cannot be elocuted
Written on the face
Profound, undisputed
and clear as the day.
The grief gave countenance
while the loss took away breath
The empty became sentient
and eyes became window death.

Denial of Directive
by Damm
In perfect
temporal
congruency
all things flow.
High subtext
in the aural
complexities
prove it so.
The mechanics of Time,
have created the Order,
have designed the Chaos.
The problem is our minds
when presented with torture
when expectations are way off
All things are in harmony
All things are in harmony
whether we feel it’s true or not.
Webdont feel at all
Universal sovereignty
Universal sovereignty
and the design of the natural law.
(We ignore it and fall)
The perspective is what’s flawed
We’re just too cowardly to accept it.
All things subjected to our wants
is an unnatural denial of directive.
In perfect
true cosmic
cell fluency
all things grow.
In pretense
with walls thick
we keep pretending
it’s not so.
The Mechanic of Time,
has created Disorder,
has designed each micron.
The problem is our minds
presented with the torture
of having our sizing so wrong.
All things are in harmony
All things are in harmony
whether we feel it’s true or not.
We dont feel at all.
Universal sovereignty
Universal sovereignty
and the design of the natural law.
(We ignore it and fall)
The perspective is what’s flawed.
We’re just too cowardly to accept it.
All things subjected to our wants
is an unnatural denial of directive.
