| Angels die in my arms Infected w/ purity Intoxicated w/ lust… Two solemn vipers of my pupils hallucinating lead themselves toward the slight imperceptible movement of eyelashes …Slow Undared Touch… …plead guilty to long… If Gods may walk In the Skies Why would we Wander in these dirty streets, kicking the packs of snowflakes [half mud] and hiding our bodies in stuffed aluminium spaces of rooms? To wait for the sunset? Inappropriate wish – transcendental Desire of pain machinery; Warmth and silk stockings … and your hand on my face to tear the artificiality of smile away… one way of madness white’s – color of death …no footsteps on heavy snow… …plead innocent to know… Rosemary scent of Your words if only… I inhale w/ no lungs But mind and the sudden wisdom of skin faces off naked flash …of burnt flesh… …plead doomed to see visions… How’d be? Be voided? Be cornered? Roomed? Walled in? Streeted? Towned? Skyed? Spaced? Milky Wayed? Universed? …and no Strength to break through… or just be near…? Just… be… …illusion of an illusion… …plead guilty to allude… But while angels die in my arms Infected w/ soul Intoxicated w/ feelings Would you stay close? If Gods inhabit the Skies Why then it’s still sunshine? Why not the rain? …who’d mourn over the angels’ death… …for the Gods may not laugh… « return. |
