poem 001

 

Powerful tranquility

 

I find resources of noise within it
oases of potential
space to scream unheard

it is a bacchanalian of silence
gulping me whole
bequeathing human form

it is air with needles
acupuncturally synchronized
with the absence of beat

it is this poem set in erase
as water damping pavements
contained in Chinese vaporized calligraphy

powerful tranquility
being without handshake nor meme
being without having

becoming silence
when silence becomes me

About jan—animasuri

anima suri (a.k.a animasuri, animasuri, animasuri, animasuri’10, animasuri’11) animasuri is an ongoing project using technologies as media, text as sound and sometimes visuals as odors. animasuri is trans-media. It is possibly mixed with irony, possibly with salad or coconuts; depending on the gaseous nature of transatlantic chatter. animasuri is a rational, calculated forecast of the surreal. It comments and reflects on the perceptions of daily experiences while losing all grips with it. It is highbrow on a low hanging belly. animasuri provides surrealist BrainNnocularZ containing contextual media from teaspoons to nailtrimmings. Some of animasuri’s forms drink bear, or cuddle beer. Some pick noses, or snooze with pixies. Others tap on keys or rather let them tap on others. Therefor, animasuri is clearly straightshooting vegan. animasuri is cerebrally monkey-styled. animasuri browses through the intertwined visual corridors connecting sound art, visual aberrations, appropriationist art, sound poetry and the spoken or written word. As source material visual bits, conceptual queues or soundbites are derived from pre-existing sonic or other materials, artificial creations and digital errors, environmental record-keeping, bio-confabulation and appropriation of context. animasuri is ex- in the premature sense of the word. Etymologically, animasuri is a French-like sourir pickpocketing an Anglican feminist Latin soul. animasuri is not French nor English nor American and surely not Spanish or Brazilian; it is homi in a Bhabha-esque swirl. It is balance found in the chaos of established stereotypes while acknowledging male nipples are trans-national and universally misunderstood. As a reflection of an extrinsically-labeled happily married white Caucasian Judeo-Christian heterosexual Buddha-lover, animasuri finds harmonious solace in Judith Butler’s “Gender Trouble” without any sexual troubling implications. Politically left-free, animasuri is capitalistically comfy bathing in loyal conservative strands amidst its progressive left libertarian conceptualizations with a-communist socialist twists. animasuri contradicts therefor is not.
