A sponge has that much absorbent capability and after a while you can pour water over it and nothing stays.

Universal Harmonic Vibrations

half monologues
understood by
universal self only

part of who we are
when we listen
to soul universal self

so often so common
material absorbent people
do not always listen

The Map-Maker

I am a map-maker of high discernment,
I am an agent so absorbent,
The feelings attached to me created
This felony so wide and long aborted.

The maple tree outside is flung by the wind,
There are leaves on the ground thinned;
My staple diet is so well-known by the nation,
Eventually we are proud of none.

Surfaces

at the surface it may be smooth
like varnished furniture
but then it is not the surface that really counts
the inner layer makes the difference

is it made of steel or plain wood?
what stuff are you made of?

what heart is there? what spleen?

softness of cotton absorbent to failures
the hardness of clay that cracks to heat

The Up's and Down's

weak slippery knock
my toe, a hill
that shadows my knee,
hurt but fulfilling absorbent
of droplet sweat that linger
in my feet

thundering tears fall above
my head shallow
the pain into my feeling,
tested like mammon in the tongue,
roar down that moves
to close the teary eyes to open
of pain

please find the sweet role of
romance that quest
the lasting happiness
holding without the beam of memories
for today is the beginning to a

The Opium Eaters

Addict weak shaky bought
in checked wave line motion.
Fifty sturdy dollars worth
elixir dream time life potion.
Absorbent sacred ball spinning
holy thin line magic flame bidden.
Uncut pure sudden dream death
worship magic mushroom lotion.

In vestige ritual days of seer use Ancient Egypt
powers of magic mushroom were temple sacred.
In Odyssey weary trireme warriors of Odysseus
were lost in trip addiction on island of opium eaters.
In an age incorporating scientific inventions absolute
misfits lost within masses use cocaine or hero heroin.

Lotto Life Spin

Addict rue bought
in check out line motion
five dollars worth
of elixir dreamtime potion.
Absorbent sacred numbered ball spinning...
purchased from holy grail line magic machine;
state blueprint sly sucker pantomime taxation...
proliferating pie in sky get rich quick dreams.

Attendant shop priestesses
minimal menial minions pillage;
operating lotto outlet shrines
serve worshipers paying hopeless homage.
Apollo’s oracle precisely programmed
speaks chosen erratic prophesy package;
in electronic statistical lines formulated
randomly selected spun ball bondage.

Uwaoma

My love-jaundiced eyes
Are intent on the moon
Because I see no celestial curio
Only her wild serene face

Face that rouses my hunger
Desperate and unquenchable
Because she is no real meal
Only an abominable bowl of pork

Pork which Eleazar
Does not even simulate
Because I sense no satisfaction
Only a bait to fire my hunger

Hunger being Alexandrian
Wields a weapon futile
Because I crave no Maria
Only her absorbent tranquility

When God And I Sang Love Songs

In the beginning was the word and the word wanted me
words many words haunted my days haunted my nights
sleepless nights so tired so tired yet the word wanted me

wanting needing to sleep yet words drove me would not let me be
words lines of verse filling filling my mind time after absorbent time
poems born in the night night visions night words wanting born life

no choice no choice the word commands commanded servant soul writes
hot summer nights sped youth hair dusty blond skin beach burnt brown
wind kissed bronze naked skin sea carried surging soul safe in wave water

salt spray wave spray sea foam wave burst white foam birth born surging
sea surge ocean surge wind wide sea beach breaking over wild soul free
swimming beach sand river tides water pulse washing over through soul

riding out hard fast with death wave laughing life rhythms tide fast run
words nights of words stone dropping given in love to God life codes
biorhythms still life lost thirty minutes hours blink in deep meditations
