Emotive expression through words, words that give flesh to deep, ethereal, and complex emotions. Instead of running away from these queer emotional constructs, this zone greets them as friends and converses with them in light of that friendship.

GOOD ANCESTOR These lips are theirs, They tell me live. This strong black nose, Powerful, massive. This angled jaw, Cuts like knife. If no you, For me no life. I wish I could, Just see your face. Offer thanks For this their race. I wonder what their word would be, Could their eyes today see me? To aft or bow would they go? And perish in that sea below? Or would their seed be cause enough, for peace in a Jesus from Lübek? The carrion call of treacherous ocean Or future cries of offsprings’ devotion? These the broken ones, Baptized in blood, Are good ancestors Watching above. by: Planted Black Prose

Guard them from john crows circling above. by: Planted Black Prose

Your humble acquiescence belies no hint of fright. Darling, won’t you smile? Your smile is a protection from blights that blight your soul, an ingenious deflection, balm to make you whole. What goodness you inherit when masking all your trials? Chin chin, head back, now ferret out a smile. Friend, won’t you smile? Only in your joy I promise I’m invested. I ask this all for your own sake, my innocence untested. My anger grows by increments, imperatives defied. My patience slowly ebbing when you refuse to smile. What know you of choices? I know what’s best for you. Controlling all the voices, you’ll do what I say to. You the stain on pristine station, wagons rolling west; the darkened spot bes...
