controlled substance
when the clocks melt into forlorn bodies reclining
in an aesthetic bliss we find ourselves
in dark semi-lit rooms expanding
with nothing to do no stake to claim
the keys of the universe dropped
into our laps like luxurious playthings
atom bombs waiting to explode
forbidden worlds forbidden no more
In the darkness of life we steal
a glimpse of this synthetic heaven
candy coated as a controlled substance
a supple taste of gushing divinity
both appealing and appalling
Angels we don wings and take flight
to experiment experience
weave tall tales to tell
with friends we will never see again
it is a sweetly sublime aroma
that drags our minds across the rooms
of time and space
travelling thru 3 dimensions
creating one out of the many
making friends out of strangers
erasing disbeliefs in a smooth
effervescent wave of warmth
a delicate beauty hidden in the confines
of our everyday life
such a defiant escape
condemned as a controlled substance
such a sweetly enticing exorcism
made possible only by provoking the impossible
coffee stains
she expressed herself in extremes
words like needles
piercing pressure points
anesthesizing anxiety
with acupunctural linguistics
bringing bliss to the brain
your gone words are just a twist of the tongue
my elastic reality is merely a play thing
i tattoo poems across your shut mouth of steel bones
you sing for me floating on bubbles of black coffee
counter-clockwise like a wave
full-on-throttle like desire
heartbeat like flame
pearls falling
bells that make
a beautiful noise
out of collisions
mornings that make
beautiful paintings
of a slow death
split me open
and the loveliest
of reds will flow
paint the lovely downfall
and shake the apple tree
wash these wounds away
sell this moving drama
sink like stone into the sand
shake hands
paint the face like mask
disguise a ritual
to shock is shameless
Back inside our protective covering
the silence of these walls
will soon have us hovering
like cotton-candy devil-dolls
-WE NEED ALTITUDE-
we need to blow this place
with a cherry-flavored magnitude
with rocketships slapping against my face
the color in my eyes
changing
like falling water
over my despairing suns
or daughters
whose teeth shine supernova
like a loved one
loved thing
I am sitting here, choking
waiting for the punchline
while maddened eyes and saddened lips
keep me enclosed
in the surrounding warfare
of angels falling and bullets flying
it is a senseless
smoking we come
singing
it is a shallow
sinking we come
seeking
it is a beautiful
chaos we
wonder aloud
it is a deliberate
magnetizm we cloak
in our colors
always reserving the right
to both attract and repel
