Fourth
On month the fourth, nineteen,
Twenty-eighteen,
I sought to achieve,
Something so important,
Yet so unimportant.
I thought it was meant to be,
I was determined,
To move the wind like a bee.
Instead I heard the unfortunate flight.
The elements were a-present.
The first element I sensed,
Two hydrogens to one oxygen,
Was in the form of sympotny.
My pupil spoke,
Before I understood the occurrence.
The second element,
My own pupil,
Discerned,
Eye created it ---
A-passionate,
It was fear,
It was rage,
It was expectations,
It is reality.
It was my right,
A-comprehensible only human.
Fear led to fear,
Mine developed,
Into breath,
So resonant,
Blasting,
Beethoven heard me from underneath Austria ---
If the piano whites and one accidental had grasped,
It would resonate,
Travel longitudinal,
Body shaken ---
I disrupted the elements,
So essential,
I was golden retriever.
Subsequently,
I encountered the fourth element,
A-final,
It was in my prints,
My oils attracted them,
The oils that leave evidence and truth behind,
I was tuning,
My pupil,
My own at that,
It was inside,
Crunching cord,
Chips-Ahoy,
Crumbling.
I don’t follow.
Earth has done me wrong.
Left,
Hurt,
Behind.
The fourth is continuing,
Pretty soon it will become a mountain,
It will crumble as well.
The fourth continues,
Mountain,
I dig through,
Starting,
At bedrock,
No one to know one.
The BLIND, the ___,
A-Ama.
Siya ay tumigil sa akin,
Kaliwa.
Redemption,
I seek.
Forth I go.
