Meaning sickness (re-post)

I get sick inside

of being meaningful

the words are like stones

sinking in topic pools

away from the splash

of their spokenness

dead weight into memory

like a gravity

pulling them down

to the synopsis bottom

of what was previously said

at another moment in time

yet now

removed from the surface

of its play

remembered in an environment

unlike its origin

no holographic video

to redeem the preciousness

simple un-embellishment

assigned any redelivery

he said what she said

that he said she said . . .

okay well

what was the heart

of the matter?

what was the heat

of the moment in the matter

well what was the intent

behind the matter

and what was the motive of it

mattering

like I said

I get sick inside

the apparel of meaning

sure I wear the getup

from the inside out

whatever the splash

it comes up later

looking like stains

and nothing ever dries the same

as it was originally

when it mattered

ever so delightfully so

before it became

memory retained

and that meaning fill!
