Knot Poetry
(A. Schein)

This will knot be poetry
this will knot be

This will knot the senses
blow up fences and brick wall lines
like time does not exist within this reality
must persist relative only as cell expansion begins
and now we are sinking in paths to ponder
Eyes of the Beholder
well eyes behold her
keeping pace with changing crops of fading forms
these days are for your destruction

As the negation of self
is the inflation of wealth
the phases of moon melt the praises that tell
balloon minds they can walk blind on a tight rope
when a slight slope is still decline
so

Close your eyes
cause I can’t close mine
wish I may
wish I might
wish the light would snuff the night
reverse the curse of society
rehearsed as I search like variety for more
and it’s more war
more sex
more collects than releases
so we tease ourselves with stories of democracy
but if the past dictates the future
then we are all slaves to hypocrisy
living in a land of stop lights and switches
do-knotted contradictions which create di(e)visions
we dangle our feet off their fences
speaking twisted tongues of past tenses

Once upon a time
I can rhyme the story line
into a repeating circle
that skips until you spin the recorded pages of your history
scratch out the speaker
cause I need a healer
as the music of the DJ is the same as the shaman
guide us closer to the nuclei
and we will fly like Feather Falcons
the Dragon claws for fire
while we beat higher
we beat higher
we beat higher

We beat higher into seeing
that’s why the first person of being is named “I”
well its eyes to remember
I still remember sitting in the house of freedom
under the ceiling
you call it the sky
and I call it my mind
and I can dream the clouds into a weather or knot
and tie mine with the Sun
as our time
has come

And come the ancient spells of my Mother
come the ancient spells of my Mother
drip heaven into my cup
empty cause empty is always enough
always
enough to fill me UP.
