Americana

I will take a train to Babylon but never declare my own trespassing bombs Red dirt in the mind is hardened and seduced for one minute and then lost Pedestrians are mowed down as I hoard weapons for ecstasy I bathe in hard water a blued frontier explorer while the sun is nothing I have to smother your discoveries while you come onto filth icicles The letters of the killed mark my path announcing biblical winter
