Tableau Vivant

a missed step in sleep
a dizzy pause
a creak of a gate
a dogs bark
a sulphuric smell
passing out through environments
i move like a worm in the soil
carriedin a pewter cup
a verdant womb among roots
in a low nest of my own limbs
below a hill i look up to see children suddenly singing
i see a great circle of flowers above them
and a hole bore in graphic reality
it's inner vision a crucifixion
a pitiful sight in periphery
christ is removed of his crown
which is placed just above like some profane halo
that dots my I
all while the children lock hands
and the wreath spins around the hole
the children sing in stone
meshes of evergreen
each simple line is a web seen from the side
in a trance and
unbound in a song and
unsung in a word and
caught in a lung and
in a bell unwrung
in a sky of dunes
in a scene of scars
on a bleeding wing
eclipsing mars
a stained glass
of the halo's eye
in a saints mind x2
in a sense mine
in a sense mine
uncover the censor
uncensor the censes
my censer is empty
a word unsung
caught in a lung
dropped from beneath
the tip of a leaf
in a saints mind x3
in a sense mine
magnetize the fires
burn the lyre
to hear the strings pop
invisible mind
in a bee sting
in a clasped hand
spill the censer
to cleanse the saint
mix it with smoke or a mixture of paints
circling round x5
behind the eye (follow me...)
in a saints mind
in a saints mind...
I woke up confused
knowing that even horizontal problems have their vertical sides
was there more to this? I can't be sure
I had to paint with the dull earth tones
the colored fire
vibrating along the rim of the hole
where it was seen

about
Tableau Vivant is an attempted recreation of a vision not a dream, being brought along by vertigo and other illness, maybe 3 years ago. The vision involved children, Christ, ee cummings, a large wreath, smells and sights that were much more than, as Mjr Briggs says, an accumulation of the days thoughts. More than I can assemble via song, but an attempt felt mandatory.
As we learn more about the virus ravaging the world, I looked toward the golden shadows of every year, Pollen, and weeks after recording, learn of its possible responsibility for further spread. The squealing squibs are microscoping into the element, and the original painting (seen bottom left of the art) incorporates actual particles.
