Blind to street names, they drink, love & sleep
Killing time, mending silence & loneliness
the irresistible urge to feel another's
skin
Couches on fire with undiluted dreams
Eyes meet, music plays loudly
As she opens a mason jar full of memories
Haunted with beer breath kisses
& nude 3 a.m.'s, where minds idling
Become secret eternities
Mystic Candle Light
High pitched droning unfolding in to words
Toes drag across beige shag carpet
A cigarette burns in an ash tray where
Prophesy mingles up from finger into
The blue smoke
Dreams & vision warm themselves
Next to the mystic candle light
Nowhere awakens burgeoning
With deep song
Transcendent Eye Meditation
Sun slow cloud filled sky
Blue field golden pages
Dug out a cathedral like cosmos
Prophetic blue eyes
Stars emanating
Soaking in & consuming all
Projective realities
Transcendent eye
Formulating the song of ages
While imitating an Elder tree
Reaching for the sun
Sheltering the lost children
Of the future
Hymn to Sleep
Narcoleptic eyes burn
Air dehydrated against
fluorescent light
Necromantic power naps
Retrieving bulk messages
Written beneath our tongues
Perpetual Dream Machine (for Robert Desnos)
Troubling future now
A “woke” generation
Lost w/o true knowledge
Lost w/o robert desnos
& his perpetual dream
Machine
