I am as lost as you look in this unfinished book What luck My mind a temple, a temple for whores The canvas for a spiritual war
Shadow play – how long before I win you over? Irony – how long before I swim in boulder?
Fall out, fall silent
Drawn from the temple, a temple for whores Immaculate, inaccurate my rhetoric, my metaphores
Clarity to whom clarity is due Saturated I levitate at will
Six feet off the ground Infinity above my eyes I see all there ever was And all there ever was is light, light that fades
(It fades Fades away)
As does is made Look at all those greys
I'm not ready Said the witness torch in hand Tired of his shadow friends A moment that is never over
The longer you stare down the abyss the longer the abyss gets to stare back up at you
To watch the steady, steady flow Endlessly it goes for all I know A post god's drive at heart, a valley climax The eye widens I lead the words right back into silence
The longer…. The longer….
