To be able to speak
without punctuation
jubilant infinite moment
moment jubilant infinite
infinite moment jubilant
gibberish
and as if that weren’t enough
burn and sing
a solipsist
heard by no one
but the weird world’s
distant core
To be able to speak
without contrivance,
filigrees,
underlinings or cursives
supreme instant
of unbounded pleasure
at the center of an immensity
without any outside pressure
knowing full well that vital forces
peel away from the muscle easily
and drift off
and one drowns
and it doesn’t matter
that one is protected
enraptured
To be able to speak
to speak it
to speak it to them
one
to oneself
consubstantial...
--from 'Dehiscent, Enraptured Invention'; Pura López-Colomé
