Analysis of Timeless beings
Charles Fields II 1955 (Fort Bragg, NC)
Timeless beings
In a state of reality of pure thought
Lightning strikes of raw intelligence harnessed
Focus supernatural serendipity at paces surreal
Balancing equations In synch with each heartbeat
Feeding the aura of the Vortex of frenzied activity
all accomplished on a smooth plane
A calm face punctuated with a smile
Transformed from within a shared space
Between sentient portals
Accentuated with a wink and a nod
In a gentle whisper
A glancing touch
On the lips (Thank God)
There’s a pulse
starting A spark
jumping across bundles
of formerly inactive synapses,
“horny genes” sounding the alarm
“Make all systems ready for action”
Starting a chain reaction
of secondary effects
Triggering emotions
Long since creation
Practiced Although set aside
Awakening in cycles
Deliberate
Yet not so well understood
A renewed sense
Ascending rhythms
Of an ancient ritual
So essential for survival
Its root cause
Suppressed
So as not to cancel out
all other desires(Yes, it’s that good)
There’s no denying
its importance
Save that when being a mutually selective choice
We cannot quite steer(almost)
make a choice
in imparting desirable characteristics
as If giving humanity
With a voice in a process
So mystic there are unspoken laws
ingrained in our capacity to establish taboos
unwritten rules In the unrestrained practice
of refined sex
The reproductive ability to make family
Which matters to state the fact
That our ability as social creatures
To maintain some sense of civility remains intact
Other than periods within the realm of war-insanity
Sends our sensibility Totally out of whack
More than a chance of activity
Our supercharged emotions cascade
Over the waterfalls of our climactic orgasms
Coincide With tides of emotions
Making chance encounters irrelevant
For as long as our hook ups
maintain relative permanence
as we raise
Are elevated in awareness
by our offspring
for a fact We can’t resist
who/the what
We are Timeless beings
Stuck here within
this space in time
Proactive
kiss
