A Man of Somewhere in Time (part 3)

If time is a Circle

we'll meet at the end again

Right? Left?

 

Down the Air shaft

we break symmetry

to Inferno

 

But thru Water's release

our Third finds

Purgatorio

 

Where we push

five Stones up dírty Days

into hard Fükíng Nights

 

Returning to Arabian stories

green fantasies and red shoe diaries

 

We, together in our bucket

of crābs, clawing, clinging

at each other's silken skin

 

Together, we break a lisping loop

Up with primordial fire

 

We release Faith's water

at the summit

of an earthy Mound

Only to Drift back

Down 2

Dirt 2

Death 2

 

Our only mementos
