delirium sparkled


the fury
of delirium sparkled
torrents of brainwashing dreams and imitation realities
consciousness masquerading between materiality and afterlife
the here of hereafter
and therefore the end of all futures yet to be seized, all lives left to be destroyed
last words never uttered
mistakes unmade and abandoned in their own spectral dimension
ominously, desperately, impatiently
awaiting for forevers to each attain their respective zeniths
and halt in the midst of the currents of time
not a moment too soon, a moment of unknown present and future
lost in the fissures connecting the physical with the metaphysical
the subnatural and supernatural
the broken splendor of grandeur the mystic beauty
it pains them so to set free all their magnificent amulets, wonders omnipresent
among the fragile, firy stars and the distant, humble earth beneath their proverbial feet
knocking at the doors of simplicity as the butler cheerfully, solemnly answers...
...
“ah, welcome good sir, to our humble abode!”
my head is thunder, my eyes lightning...i can’t feel, i can’t breathe
“you need not breathe, for the oxygen you require lies in a distant place, far from here”
but.........where is here?
“why, here is there and there is the reality in which you lie dreaming - and an elusive dream it is! - passing from one
dimension to the next, nevermore certain as to where here will be tomorrow, and there yesterday, though if tomorrow is
yesterday then today cannot exist and therefore becomes entwined in unreality...”
......what?
“nevermind.  you wouldn’t fathom it even if i repeated it.  the ‘doors of simplicity’, hmmmph!”
what...what are you?
“i am nothing.  i am not living, nor dead, and since i am neither of these i cannot be everything, so i must be nothing.”
then what am i?
“you are everything.  you are living, in the real world, and as i blather here to the face of your mindless wit i stab a lancet in
from behind, rendering your unreal heart and soul dead and inexistent.  ah, i do believe that your time has expired...so, as
you leave, please, drive safely on your journey home, don’t drink or smoke too much, stay healthy, and do visit here again
sometime, as i hereby enjoy your company to the utmost extent...”
