The night sounds so sleepy peacefully The standing giant houses mortgaged out, never run out of the romance We can our ashes in tin-cans, selling them by the pound like tomb-raiders smoking trees Who chained themselves to bright systems with the brilliance of the first of it's kind Shadowed blind by the last time, you knocked me out Do not lose yourself tonight, to the meditated lintels stretched across the stealing vermillion across the dull haze Waking up to benzedrine, Brooklyn Bridge lies like an etherized patient slightly bleak and bare-naked Brooklyn rose Forlorn rags in our mouths, dripping needles on arms dripping with blood and sweat The forked night, fortnight light, studied the looks of people in the sunlight often reminiscent of flickering Lightning reflected off the midnight hour striking the blind spool Blind spoon turning the hydrogen jukebox, little by little striking the records joyously The night sleeps so peacefully like a heroine bombing ballast hue strewn around the kids Water floods the streets, steely-eyed hypnotizing hypersexual freely eddying around, criminal derelicts born to the greed Afflicted by the ****, looking for a quicker fix than bar-brawls and cheap drinks The last piece of adumbrated furniture meditating on the crowded streets, hypnotized by the summer madness Or the pursuit of a higher road that used to move over us unlike the blindness that was once so welcoming He said, he would leave us some clothes He said he will be with us at the end of the road, holding our battered suitcases He said he will be with us till the end of time as long as it takes As long it takes? Immortal or mortal Hedonistic or purloined Hero or heroine We all must die in the end with our virtues and sins Tell me a story of how you saved us from our sober souls Praying with fierce tears unless the answer is crystal clear I can handle the truth if you tell it to me like it is told Instead of wailing at the end of the road, waiting for our redemption Understanding us, then why are selling salvation to us in strains of marijuana smoke, oh how wonderful Bless your knowledge God, aren't we growing with the deaths Like we growing each day, and I say I speak into the soul like it never knew a mother or a home
Writing poetry, I feel at home pensive again He writes to me through vultures, scavenging for reading material He claims piousness to console my will and rest my soul with his wishes
