................
Stark light dies gently into night
Web in the Pinhole Sky
All magic tricks traded in a smile
This mind slips for miles and miles
Down haunted highways and back again
Body shiver, blended realities
But you know I love you
Sting of the awakened dream
This kismet, a touch
Fires sparked in the breath of Heavens' fall to earth
Morning
These are things we try not to understand
In chemistry of flesh, this alchemy of you
Loneliness should never be held in honor
Wishes made on fake eye lashes
Intruding breeze graze naked shadows
Still returns, fears are often more comfort
Civility wanders, tied in doubt against the shore
Ignited, spark against the dead dry wood called home
This cannon ball untouched
This gun unsheathed
This uncompromisable trigger
Unspoken promise sets in motion
There is but long life before us
Written across lines on occupied paper in desolate white
Theological games dissolve understanding
This, the translators spirit to scribble each design
Divinity defined in who suffers
Big moon standing still
Through the window against the cast black reflection she dances
Records slight skip, the slow song plays long
Tall candles burn past the fingers into wax, into hemp, into flesh
Blood moves through miles, drunk screams
Human incantations
Scribbled against the fallen tree
Sky blue stolen to cover naked feet
Still I get dazed when I hear rain
The Days spent to chase nights
Pleas of words blind thoughts
Ignore your insanity somewhere in the time between
Deception is a world unchanged
Mistaken conscious, well of unsure waters
And the philosopher holds his high regard
And no better is their answer
"Sewn across each thread found
Simple design
Flesh in pattern
Bound tight, this sorted nature"
And years will end till counted in regret
The ghost passes through in the scent of her refuge
Cherry wine to stained lips, still I ask for another sip
Red autumn devil steals attention from it's black ocean embrace
As thieves stand amongst us
And you, a music note still to be heard
My promise to listen
Taking tears away from each face
Spelling mysteries on the dark part of the wall
Still fears no evil, summers endure
Doors drawn on the home a rich man has stolen
Entitled to the worming trail below him
Stepping over his broken train track of forsaken tomorrows
Still I carve each effigy from soft stone and sacred wood
Spinning each grain of sand to glass
This my promised design
I pray only clarity when I seek them
My eyes and their shame
Deciphered numbers, the game of the holy
This pneumatic ideal of each cherished god
Carefully arranged in heaven's ashtray
Humanity often unhinged
Trust placed amongst the duality of every imagined poem
We are all prophets some days
