Last night I laid inside your car
found true meaning in your continent
growing homeland within my inland
releasing melodies of me into your countryside
unanticipated sounds, palette of dreams
seeking salvation  from your moonlit mansion
You were more like a fungus stung to my soul
dysfunctional, deformative, touching every
exterior equate with my personality
And still, I wanted to stay forever
journey inside your drunken ocean
feel your velocity soar through my spectrum
worldwide drumbeats blazing down Brooklyn Bridge
saxophones and trombones running rampant
circling my inner planet Saturn, leaving stains in my membranes
I’m in the fast lane now, my astrological mind tangled
mangled, no longer intellectualized,  unlearned thoughts                                                         ­        
sinking overboard, disfiguring my ship as I lay imprisoned      
by your manifest drums
Your clouded configurations have extinguished my knowledge
no source of power
But spinning backwards in your evolution
