Through effervescent morning
The faded crescent hanging
While I'm hanging out of the back
We are traveling beyond the week
The line between can't be intact
Sapphire melts into fluorescent gold
Behind evergreens grown in the grove
Feeling warm from an antique
Oatmeal with cinnamon and butter
Boiling low upon the flame
Allowing zeal to be the gutter,
Carver of our wooden frame.
Cosmic queries clean the clocks
Of the ticks and of the tocks
Running rampant from the feast
She is smiling on the roof
With her hand out to ward the edge
She will draw you to the ledge
With her hair like black crow feathers,
Her skin it blends into the background
She can see throughout the city
from eyes of old or eyes of young
A breath is coursing through the air
And in each an d every lung
The sky marshmallow, melted white
Swirling above the metro grey
Muted mayhem takes the night
Where solitary stroll astray
Sleep is stalling, listless loo
Smokin' squares beside the plumb
With nothing better said to do
Cosmic queries clean the clocks
Of the ticks and of the tocks
Running rampant from the feast
Tasers in the field of dreams,
shock those who wander its seas.
Life so journeying for an understanding goon,
laborious pondering will imprison us soon.
Is there a portal left in
Is there some transcendental train
for the ones who are none?
None, as in no one, for we are nothing,
and nothing is everything.
We are heroes, we are fiends, in this field of dreams,
where the lone cherubim of exile
We will fly this wretched war we wrought,
though presently we are hopeless, it seems.
