Adoration not only in your sounds
Its also important to find an image
The stars about your head now
Are nothing but a mirage
We hold more store in that smoke
That lingers between your lips
As you raise it with your two fingers

Hunched through the white paper
The flame burning as you

DUST
When I see a film and discover
these thoughts of mine are not that of a modern mind.
People before me shared my disposition
Their dialogue more intricate than history depicts.

Not just shades of black and white
but the delicate and harsh shades of grey
It's good to know of

WONDERLAND LAKE

And above
chattering leaves
of deciduous trees
momentarily kindled by the wind
with their supple vitality now giving strength inward

may no longer feel her breath as She --- inhales
---and -aaa- sighs with purposeful ease

Only the lakes orbit
lining the earthly indulgent mud
undulates in

The waters of the fountain at rest
In them I search for you my mind drained with distress
The surface falters
Where are you now my loved ones?
Where were you when I heard the distant guns?

At times I feel the weight of the skies
And I look to them waiting for

I want her back

Without the blood
Without the grave
Without the earth
Without the night
Without the mistake
Without the shadows
Without the fall

Without the night
Without the night

Without that road
Without this city
Without the dying
Without the pain
Without the grave
Without the

Have you ever seen up close a soul as death attacks?

Watching tense eyes swirl from HD color to black

A young pleading face as her stiff body goes slack

Have you ever seen up close a soul as

Cars hiss by my window (cont.)

Do you ever wonder where that person has been
Where they are going to
What there future is to hold for them
And will it ever affect me or my loved ones
  The people I pass in the street
Guess their story usually give them grief
But

The addictive cigarette that is rolled and folds in outta sight
The deftness of hand rolling said cigarette without light
The lighting of smoke and inhaling of fume thereafter
The circle of friends who jointly smoke the joint together
The giggles and laughter the realisation of happiness thrown in
The acceptance of all as one

From the
corner of your mouth you whisper panic
From the
corner of your mouth you whisper panic
By the
Grip you have I know you cant get through it
I sense
Something inside of you yells out that its quite tragic
But just wait for it my love
It wont

How's the nap?
Make sure your shoelaces don't come undone
You may lose your dreams
Socks pulled high
Your hat your refuge
Keep your love please I ask keep that much for yourself

What are you protecting yourself from?
I know.
I protect from it too.
Keep sleeping. Sleep to dream.
And remember dear
