A dismal sky sobs betrayal's tears
Autumn's turn stealing love from the sun
It's warm breath undressing slowly the trees
So black, the fury of a mother scorned
Sweet sulfur filling my nostrils
Electricity bubbles on my tounge
Tantalizing : the air's acidity!
FLASH CRACKLE POP
Memories of exploding candy
From when I was young
Or maybe some rice cereal
Drive out, wipers tick, tick, ticking
Like the brass metronome on
Grandma's old grand
A secret spot I escape to sometimes
By blurred roads, I arrive, exalted
Engine cuts, and rain on tin gallops
Envelopes senses, soothes the heart mild
Through closed eyes, I enjoy a sweet symphony
Stripping naked, and stacking my clothes
I leave the safety of my vehical
Mud squishing through toes, I wander
Dance with the sway of wooden limbs
Pleading; Please, do not be ashamed!
Be humbled before all life's storms
