and on the air I taste the brine of your laughter (but where is my crown?). I can feel my skin cry out for better days; some long-gone error-ridden age as it feasts on my memory with hungry teeth. Only godlike garbage grows here, where among the grey matter, divinity inches its way in in jumbled fragments. These images can't be kept in messy tableaus for long: entropy stops for no man (or woman or beast or). Our neverland is top-full of hymns: o, full of scorpions is my mind, dear wife! Prayer comes in bizarre questions, and answers drawn out in raspy breaths. I want to see each one, smoky and staining the teeth that asked (like they could ever understand). I want to feel the voluptuousness of the unknown, riding each wave to the sandy shore. I want to never x-out days again, never wait to hit yet another zero.
