A touch of madness

Ripping paper tongued folded edges Existing on the fringed heavily warped Paranoia that has become my sanity Where reality bleeds into itself like some ink spilt On white walls leaking through cracks until there is nothing Nothing but the sticky remnants of happy memories Joyful music and the haunting echo of laughter Staring back out the blank blind stare Friction Static murmuring the fuzzy radio dial Tuner sliding back and forth trying to connect the circuit but there is no wave length Just the voided buzzing The blipping of the lights behind the frame Even your hands Whom like a magnet seems to find the right channel Some way to draw the breath back into the swinging classics You bring the music back But even you My capitol Y Could make the streaming black dotted fuz fade Or the welling bend of hopeless panic That locked inside my own hell recede Calloused fingers in cascading waves of blonde The touch of breath on stunted ear Charlie Brown comfort croaking in shushed tones Cut off Equipment glitch like a seizure of the mind hemoraging the swelling force of tensed hands and screaming speech Wishing to escape the madness If I could, pray for peace
