Descent

I think, I think, I think therefore I think I am

Mechanical little workings, I tick I am I think,

But there are no certainties in thought, that's why it's

ff     uu       nnnnn         nnnny,

   ff       nnn           nnnn                        honeyyyyyyy     yyyy         yyyyy

                                                                                        yy           yyy

She asked if I found Jesus, but he's laughing

*Ha      hhh                                                                            ha

     ha           aaaaaaa                                                         ha              haa*

'Cause he just wanted directions out of the tomb,          Ha

He don't have Alzheimer's or nothin,'             HA

He was just trying to find himself.                                                    ha

 

My pockets are heavy, heavy, heavenly heavy

With prayer stones and dog bones

And secrets that tick,tick, tick therefore am

Am, am am amamaMAMAMA

                                                       M

  I                           ?                           A                             am

         Who am                            M                           who am              I*

                                                        A               I

       ?                                            M

                                Who                  A               am I

 

Wailing like a helpless baby                                                 WANTS

That at least knows what it wants.                wants

What do you                               YOU

you           what                                        you                                    wants

    WANT           do                     you                   wants      YOU

  you         what do you                               YOU         wants  you

               want?

Not really a poem, just a tiny excerpt from my thought catalog where my mind is allowed to get lost.
