Sifting Lizards

Titled Castaneda, benefits of losing one’s mind.

Sifting Lizards 

By Tyler Lucas Mobley

Informace, at risk of excluding the 

rest, finger raised distinguishing this

from that, a process arrives at Hiroshima. 

Potent void, out of nothing a knock

on your door, just dropping by, a light

like never before pours definitive unto.  

Caressed by world bosom ease away a 

breath, casting sky hooked a cloud life 

upon merry go round, spurs spontaneity.  

Your stride upright brighter than the sun, 

ocean eyes focus in as horizon lion shakes 

it’s mane, settling just where you belong.

From one comes another, you know this could be Switzerland.

An insurmountable lift 

caught in life’s talons

feet kicking for ground

desperate for any burden

but the one you bear. 

Dragon’s back pontoon

distract time with mistress

minutes, enough to swim

the sound. Insightful clay,

a facial expression, skip

pattern my navajo peyote

a visit. Crow back in the 

gizzard gaze you’ve always

known. Our clay you say,

must be wet everyday

to fend cracks and shatter. 

Your gentle eyes owe

not a cent to your broad

back, heaving against an

Empire State, let me go

I’ll carry you forever, 

an ease of grasp, I’d 

never felt so alive.
