A Mouthful of Cake-poem
Brides and grooms
shove fists full of white icing
into each other’s mouths.
The video implores,
“Eat cake.
Be sweet. Be sweet.”
When there was no bread
She said
“Eat cake.
Be sweet. Be sweet.”
Dates and sugar
Coconuts and mangos
Arrive in the boats
The sailors say
“Eat cake.
Be sweet. Be sweet.”
When this life is done with me
That may be the time to
have my cake
and eat it too.

A dream of a boat
Noah and Ahab float away on a raft
Gulliver is in charge now
But how does it begin
The end is there
I write this poem backwards
A soup bowl of quantum level chaos
I began to wail.
“Why haven’t I been given the standard instructions regarding the life rafts?!”
I reported on deck but the captain said
“You’re on your own matey.”
Then he chuckled.
So I napped in the deck chair ‘neath the silvery moon.
A big black dog howled from the next chair.
I told him to shut up.
He whined.
I apologized.
Soft rain and laughter coming from on high.
Note: This started as a Facebook status update after listening to Patti Smith Babelogue

Our river of dream
Awake with the leaping fish
Glint catches the eye
Beneath the settled stillness
We look for another glimpse

I just watched the movie Across the Universe directed by Julie Taymor. Excellent. It is a love story with a serious social context drawn from the 1960s and from Beatles songs. When I started watching it there seemed to be some overwrought elements, too many visuals and tricks and so forth but as it went on the artistry of it became more evident.
I’ve always liked Julie Taymor’s work especially on Titus for which she wrote the screenplay and directed. Of course this was based on the Shakespeare play Titus Andronicus. What a vision this woman has. No wonder considering her background in theater, costuming and all other areas of drama.
I just read her bio on the Internet Movie Database and then it really struck me why her work resonates so much. Her travels to Asia, most notably India and Japan as well as her interest in puppetry from Indonesia are all things with which I am familiar.
Just wanted to make a short note here that her next production of The Tempest has gone to post-production. If it contains the high-concept artistry of her other work I can hardly wait to see it.
Check out her work some time and get a fresh view of what contemporary film can be about.
