I died awhile ago
   froze to death in snow
   lost in dream's flow
   still alive to and fro.
   Can't quite be still
   like a corpse until
   devil robs the till
   of my own free will.
When I'm hungry
or just hungover
I'm madman angry
spurned French lover
willing to punish you
as I fly into the Sun
my wings won't do
Icarus come undone.
When did our lust volcano
cool leaving just Pompeii's
scorched memories whole?
Summer now Winter days.
I'm breathing dust
and sweating rust
lost all of my trust
poker hand a bust
drowning in riptide
always wrong side
sorry your son died
bury my fears cried.
Time for retribution
payment for cruelty
human absolution
grandpa's promiscuity.
Drunk bar stool Romeo
charms into their *******
poor mans pretty hero
everything is fantasies.
I could not attain velocity
    to escapes war's gravity.
    Never found land of free.
    No more real geometry.
    Wished who I used to be,
    no now what I had to see.
Watch Spielberg's The Pacific
All that you adore
is all that I abhor.
Except our only child
born inside the wild.
