Felino A. Soriano - from This How My Speaking Moves

Touch Sound Philosophy

                   Chordal

         passion          pianoing into

the trumpet of my good hand’s attempt

at becoming translucent in behavior.

This duo of fathom:

two windows

two wisdoms

      :  mirrors into devotion I’ve

for my familial connection in teaching

my voice to move through a darkened

application of night’s ongoing streak of

achromatic monotony

***

Toward What it means to Never Misremember my Daughter

                                                                                                 --for Mia

From the intent of what my

spirit clarifies

                    which it means to dissolve histories or

 how hands crush bone with stronger bone

    into the voice’s uncertain meander

to search within a darkness’ unopened

 memory.

Through the language of my family’s silence

their saying: do not die within the spectrum

of cancer’s predetermined timeline--

*** 

__________

my own silence answers

    with the wish of ongoing

impetus           to visualize my

 daughter’s

   smallness ignite toward

an even more accurate

     rendition of what my

mirror communicates in the

 acute language of solidified

                     physiognomy

__________

***

In Knowing What Prophecy Removes

Vanished.

   Vacuum

philosophy.

                    Vacant as

     the vertical

-ity of the body’s

    breathing

slowed through miles and more so callings to

congregate beneath trees amid flesh and leaves’

unintentional desperation to tumble.

    Groups

of us follow timeline

       visual cues: watching

     as crows rest upon single branch

  ratios, fair toward their unknowing

much more exists beyond how the talons

   grip with force to confirm rest

prior to absconding

like the death some of us will

 inherit

 ***

Silence When Thought Overwhelms

          And when avalanches

respell a dedicated dialogue

                                                 among

       my best tongue’s version

                              of

reenacting happiness:

***

__________

youth is the timeframe,

   far     not within the spectrum of distance,

 a burgeon becoming a version of self,

         how my language began its form

-ulation into pensive syllables

obtaining ornamental diagrams, oblong doors

misshapen to open for the oddities of

dispositional interpretations

__________

***

No, When Needed

  Or

 when the spasm of

      aloneness scrapes the mouth’s

  roof

         freeing a spatial pain from

seeing the last breath twirl and evaporate

Johannes S. H. Bjerg - Three Poems

1.

first thing after making coffee

and rolling a cigarette is

letting my eyes rest on the clock

on the tower across the street

that has stopped at 10 to 8

(the clock not the street

which as such doesn't stop

as it flows into several other streets

that flow into several other streets

that flow into several other streets

that flow into several other streets

and so on till they reach Germany

or drop into to the ocean or

get carried across to Sweden

or Norway or to where ever

ships sail these days)

(- I heard they cancelled the ferries to England.

- Really? Why?

- It's the times. People fly.

- Do they? How do they do that?

- They've got wings, I think

- Must be a new thing. I don't have wings.

- Nor me. We're too old.

- Must be it.

- And to poor.

- Definitely.)

John Pursch - Catfish Knock-Up Negligee

Nibbling on squirreled potato, Lola sneaks double-four hammer noggin peanut wheeze at incoming bystander, fleecing known philatelist for groping gallop, frisked calliope, canonical muskrat pinch. Now wad she all floss and fluster, figurine a bastion-bobble nincompoop of daisies, marigolds, poinsettias, pinstripe bombardier imbroglio, catfish knock-up negligee, corn-town manufacture.

Swig battalion noose to seven-score punch, morphing cobbled opacity of overlook impasto, finished off by severed onset cowpoke blintz. Bazooka breath blows by her sloughed-off year, impact frog a no-show canned by beagle fender, basted pylon over monkey.

Sawed-Off Susie fixate easement what lean off total fitness Geronimo in technicolor forgery, flicker-light to neon freighter, minuscule amortized oil, forward cookie reminisce to dime-store workload, gravel HQ south of Ordinary Umbrage, Waist Scopolamine; flimsy disregard to Savory Hoaxia, pickled hovercraft nod.

"Eyesore!" screaming swordfish tangled floozy posse fringe umbilical, grapeshot shifting triplicate malign, paprika papering wallet machine. A kit, a cadre skim, cartwheeling catamaran collapsing quietly in shaven tee-shirt pundit, spurting segue cheese.

Egret Frank he sleep a night a week a porpoise crease to ballyhoo in lullaby of balky babes, six to a bunk, freckled mosquito knees awkward in pumps, scattered landfill hidden squeak, lumpy crowbar fish amendment, spirochete a pipsqueak hunt, swan-sung Nubian agility.

"He got enormity, doobie codfish cantilever hilltop spot, stopwatch swab a-tween a teeny atropine amorphous ageless mine, fabled mitten underpants, gimpy pool hall escapee," warbles King o' Gang-a-Ruminant, Singed Wad Phlegm in Ancient Heaven Seize to Gums and Traveling Cavalcade Wad Mossy Pie-Clam Torpedo Beak Dipsomaniacal Heterodyne Ipanema Dish Robe.

"Swaddling title, hefty doze have sewn to pocket pellet poultice!" schemata Underlying Umpty, once a lofty snow-cleft codified by groupies, croupiers, sibylline ceramic sparks, musty burning rum in fumigated scarf.

Jim Leftwich & Steve Dalachinsky - six poems

1. they fly like heretics in the tall grass

charcoal, who bent the spinal dawn,

      snuck into the basement

  through the backyard garden,

            snakes falling like juice

on the grateful card game

             johnny says where tho are the chips

  they lie where they fall but i have found any

    werk that right or wrong don't matter

      tuned partly to new party moxy.

when hammy nixon plays harmonica,

        they fly like heretics in the tall grass

              perks of long light and antimatter

    tuned partials to the heart of the melody

              micro-waved flags in final tonality of proxy

    exploited epoxy fixed didacts hummdrummin down

                   the cotton trail

to the forgotten docks and textile mills

           (listening to Pharoah Sanders Love In Us All),

    hard-boiled barbecued flags

        on the back burner a yard-long pox

                          yet somewhere there's a place for us

   a place mat a replacement a sphinx of a different color

           the sphincter muscled tightened in protest & opposition

Mark Young - Ludovicanus does Deutsche Disney

Wink: I'm looking for scientific papers / books on Disney (especially with regard to gender / gender roles). About tips I would be very happy. : Hug:

I want my undergraduate work like writing about the representation of the female gender role, probably by a comparison of the films Sleeping Beauty & Maleficent. I wanted only to Snow White & the Seven Dwarfs & The Ice Queen - Completely unabashed write, but since my supervisor said that I should come up with a good reason why exactly the two movies. They were extremely successful & were therefore seen by many children unfortunately not enough there. As a comparison of the different representations of the characters from Sleeping Beauty might be justified better. A few books I have, however, is a bit thin.

* 
 The work has been completed, graded and defended orally. Who wants to read time, can send me a message, I will send then a Dropboxlink to work as a PDF. :-) 
 You wrote in the short time your Diss ?! : dd 

 : Giggle: ne, as far as I am not. If the Bachelor thesis: Laughing Until Diss it is far ... 

but Warste still fast. Here is estimated to half a year for. 

 What rating would it? 

 In the note there are two numbers that are also used for programming in the computer language. ;) 

 Komische mixture. How was the Teilnotefür work. That you should but out with the report. 

 : Jump: jump: top: Congratulations and super interesting topic

A.J. Huffman - Four Poems

1. The Mindless Newscaster

rattled on about someone seeking sanctuary,

and I thought aren’t we all seeking something?

Then flash/break (no segue here) he was off

on some poorly written (and even more poorly read)

diatribe about a maroon sedan speeding backwards

in rush hour traffic.  I so know that feeling! 

I actually laughed out loud when the video

rolled, and some microscopic box-shaped blur

criss-crossed the screen.  Who shoots this stuff

anyway? [Dramatic music pause]  Breaking

news:  the weekend weather is going to be crappy,

with a slight chance of an upgrade to barely passable

by Sunday evening.  Oh Goody!  I sigh

as the next picture shown (before commercial)

is a copper-toned sunset behind a moss-covered stone.

At least I’m not the only one rolling

nowhere fast.

*Click*

*Click*

*Click*

Oh, a new reality show!  Suddenly my life

didn’t seem so bad after all.
