The Sugar Page



What page is this?  This is the sugar page.
Stripped bare to the purity of nothingness.
Where winter writes whatever the hell it wants,
Enveloping us in crystalline messages, unbeknownst.
This is the page we attract when we've dropped the reins.

Feast on apples, or fast, forever indebted to agriculture.
A clear head is promising, and a promise I made to myself.
Sugar in the blood, Sweet Jesus and Holy Mary--
may I always smile knowing I am safe in this red heaven.
River of knowing, robust Rubicon that if I cross
I must be firm in upholding.  Standing upright like I am-
no monkey meddling in abstract magic or finger paints or such.
