‘buckle up’ is no more an infringement on personal freedom and dignity

 Mike Worrall
"Poets_corner" by Mike Worrall

“We ride the white noise as a horse.”
E. Rinaldi


You instantly spiraled my world
no buckled up,
drilled inside/out of my beliefs,
the sacred knowledge I’ve gained,
even unknown one yet to me,
navigated, you trickily licked,
absorbed interlude during
a theater intermission, the moment
entwined between open/closed doors
to the opera house
as your vision of my humanity
not yet vanished from
yesterday grace…

I counterpoint guessing
what the next dish
will satisfy our insanity,
when we take strides
along the years of humming
while a soul starving for fetish
of New…

Brenda Warren
