Day debt night wept sleep crept Attachment.                        Where is my attachment?                                 evening out of balance                                         The line of my life has broken                                                   off into separate identities Flower feather Hollow weather Moonlight Canyon                                       Skylight childhood nostalgia                                       Stolen star Battered cheekbones Of weary workers keeping to The hornet's nest                       Reality a constant terror                      Of city structures                         swallowing                                                                                    them whole. Blackbird rests on an Autumn branch of hidden meadow checking its wristwatch obsessively for the              Hydrogen Volcano                 INEVITABLE.                                          Termite Corporations                                           Cavernous Hilltops                                         All that green is gold (A straw man in Byzantine robes approaches             the frosty Manhattan     to become a relic in it's Libraries)                          People fall in Love with coincidence,                  (The illusion of order beyond our field or reach)         All that love is kept in a                     Conservatory somewhere...                           Glossy stems connected to palpitating blossoms. Our tired eyes are focused to the asphalt confluence whether fever or handhold.                Hymns ring throughout the forests of                                                    Vancouver Island                Dreamers hang from the Niagara Trestle caught in                                                                    overwhelming sunlight                                                          Doused in spirit. Holy Melancholic September Sweeps away the dusty Summer,                                                         everything seems renewed                                                         In the rain..

Holy Melancholy (Everything Seems Renewed)
Day debt night wept sleep crept Attachment.                        Where is my attachment?                                 evening out of balance                                         The line of my life has broken                                                   off into separate identities Flower feather Hollow weather Moonlight Canyon                                       Skylight childhood nostalgia                                       Stolen star Battered cheekbones Of weary workers keeping to The hornet's nest                       Reality a constant terror                      Of city structures                         swallowing                                                                                    them whole. Blackbird rests on an Autumn branch of hidden meadow checking its wristwatch obsessively for the              Hydrogen Volcano                 INEVITABLE.                                          Termite Corporations                                           Cavernous Hilltops                                         All that green is gold (A straw man in Byzantine robes approaches             the frosty Manhattan     to become a relic in it's Libraries)                          People fall in Love with coincidence,                  (The illusion of order beyond our field or reach)         All that love is kept in a                     Conservatory somewhere...                           Glossy stems connected to palpitating blossoms. Our tired eyes are focused to the asphalt confluence whether fever or handhold.                Hymns ring throughout the forests of                                                    Vancouver Island                Dreamers hang from the Niagara Trestle caught in                                                                    overwhelming sunlight                                                          Doused in spirit. Holy Melancholic September Sweeps away the dusty Summer,                                                         everything seems renewed                                                         In the rain..
