no time like the present to change what's wrong
with this smeared picture of myself
sliding down lifes eternal
pipedream
so clogged
by persistant nightmares
surfacing on blinking
lids of eyes
during daytimes drama episodes
rerunning
constantly through
bits and pieces of reality
stapled
to my minds walls
forming a collage
of tragedy and
broken smiles
intertwined in cyclones
of insanity
dying off into dustdevils
babbling
in
tounges
speaking of a false
God
found in the mirrors
reflection
peering past
my souls window
streaked
by insecure
perceptions
revealed in the
oasis
changing inside
clouded visions of storming pain
hailing upwards
staining
transparent open wounds
eating it's way out from
under this abyss
gorging on deaths umbilical
cord
wrapped around my past lives
neck
like a barbedwire noose
ending any chance of accelerating
beyond the river of
hades
stretching into the silver lined
cotton clouds
pulling it's curtain
at dawn
managing to suck myself
miles from Heavens
infinite happiness
splashing into pools of
intense scorching
satisfaction
recycling myself into this unbroken
circle of life
becoming eternally stuck in this rut
i walked around in
finally collapsing in a euphoric
content heartattack
jumpstarting my unused wings
waking to telepathiconversations
made from a collect call
from umbel craters
on this crescent
moonbeam
delivering my halo's
destination
upon rippled waves
revealing
tremendously beautiful
inscriptions
shown to me as i listen
to the universalanguage of harmonious
music sung by an unbelievably
large choir of exquisite
angels hitting several
phenomenal unheard
notes and tones
created on the perfectly timed flapping
of feathers on winged relatives
welcoming me back home with
hugs and kisses
rejuvenating the depleted life sin stole
from me with the intent of capturing
my long painful endured soul
or is it the other way around???
