the giant helix is moaning
our eyes sift through the distant light
looking for our patched up selves

there is a silhouette

I can see it moving slowly
pulsing and folding
violent but necessary

we push
and are pushed back

seeking oursleves
within ourselves

sleepy interactions
tiny beast awake
take me back inside
one and two
he doesn’t even wear shoes
with a simple smile
simple brain wave
waving to the past people
casting lures
fishing for some order
on the bank of reality

walking toward the certain cliff
i know you know this
we have all heard that sound
i felt it as a child
and see it in your soft eyes.
Leonardo paint by numbers
painting outside the lines.
the kings are at their feasts
washing their own feet.
the pirates made me a map
with x’s everywhere,
everywhere
shhh, they made you one too
you lost it as a child didn’t you
stare at puddles to see the sky
and accept the muddy water
follow the bloody bird
to the smiling grave
and fly

did the damned do right
smiling at skeletons
the skeletons in flight
my head
it’s coming off
it’s coming off tonight
breathe with me
you giant
unknowingly in flight
you have a great blue hue to your eyes
I find it…

…disguised and feeling invisible
breaking barriers
sing sounds
risking rounds
a breath of pure gold
dropping off with a mystery
we’ve got it all
got all we need
disrupted in future endeavors
smiling forever
eternal and repetitious
with love and wonder
wandering hearts
across the ceiling
patches of melted craters
fleeting and fleeing
take me to your outer arms
to dream of fucking
to dream of war
spilling my feelings
abrupt and breathing
you are so ancient
and so am I
dying and happy
we are what we are

it’s speaking to me
I can hear it so clearly
voiceless but breathing
lifeless and full of life
lets sacrifice a life tonight
lets kill something
just you and me
life for life
a toast
to eternity
