its all symbolic

its symbolic
the air, the rain

you can toss it (symbol) or
be in communion with
it

as it

symbolic the slant in which i sign my name
symbolic the falling
of stars from
a sun, an omens run long past phases or a cosmic constellations pull

it is (i believe) symbolic --- too...
that crazed silent
stare consorted into symbolic
words - characters bled on stone palette
into beaten hide - that so slowly yielded life selfless
to a Holy, Holy kill (willed killing)

while
you who read - a-loud, loud, long
for what appears a super symbolic soul
to your right, your left hand
straining to
hear -  dancing in symbol, a rosed tattoo
between wrist and wrath -  you
with medal, squared, across
your chest

but if;  if
ALL symbols were placed
in a book or sacred verse,  placed within pages without referenced
numerology acting as angelic host
or guardian - would
a
lost humanity we be? - and who then
would see the wind in a face
that will not look
straight
into another -  an eye to eye

symbolically checked, cheeked flush.   what of?  revealed

thought
incapable of a lips voice - is that too,  all symbolic?

life?, creation? - death?

diamonded
or green - or a distance etched black hole in drawn out
white
symbolic?
-  all this scratching and
rant

all symbolism?  is it (at hand)
