nothing makes my heart so wild as being
in possession of a potent night
racing down the stairs in a nude descension
shedding and discarding my hide
but the bold strokes crack so quickly and it's often that i wonder why
dripping at the slow-motion rate of surrender
hanging to my bones as they dry
how can i want something more than a new hell in which to fry when i see in only black and white
there's a sinful sort of side of being
so contained a bit like being lost
stumbling thru the background like a small town loner quietly a whisperin my thoughts
into my cupped hands
folded and monk-like
at least that's what ive always said
how does writing letters from the lonely margins
feel when there is no hair on my head
is the solitude i seek a trap where ive been blindly led
tell me
where then do i go instead
when atonement comes in distant waves
i might wait until the nest to break
choking thru forgiveness at a sunfly prompter
staring thru the back of my face
it's a vulgar hidden part of being
tethered to the world right now
spending all my dollars to remain a member
nothing in my eyes but a scowl
do i bother to define myself beyond what they allow
have a already forgotten now
