A Mad Intercision
“Surrealism to me is reality.” John Lennon
"A Mad Intercision"
Pulled back by the wind, fog lights jumped over
Knocking pressure below the air plane,
She went off the road ’cause her mind
Let-out-line for a memory, a mad
Intercision, and I remember I
Was the one next to her as the
Hospital bed ran the motorcyclist
From screaming children into
A river where we swam all summer
Ate at the park pepperoni pizza, green chili fruit pies
We flew, thrown high from it, our kites in spring
Sucked hard warm gasses along the jetstream
Conical shells, road piggy back
On joyous ants, split soul per diem
The sky was like glass
And I tugged you mom wake up, the er nurse
Needs you to get her ice Why? She's flying
We laughed ’cause we made one moment right
Before we forgot we were in route
To moralities where everyone stared us right out of class
You took one long, yellow leg with us to snow summit
We chewed into lobster rubber,
I wiped the tomato paste off the molcajete and the
Motorists hung white linen sheets in the wind
As that silly snowman with the middle finger,
Cigarette, and beer can smiled
I thought he needs a winter coat, so he doesn't lose his beer
Or a friend to remember how he was, a
Nice chunk of ice, an intercision
A memory mad for your undivided vision,
Flying glass kites on chain smoke marinara
I walked right off, out of the hospital window
With sangria fireflies
Attached to my arms
