Fruits to Grab
Wallow on your way tonight, the jackals in the dark are dressed to find and
kill your hearts desire
The neon lights are sure to please; the velvet rope to certainty is cut to bits and swallowed
by the blind man
Smoke from vents and alleyways crosses leggings leather straps and the ones that look
good know just what the fiends want
Backdoor winks, unsettled fears, the nights with no sound travels on to the land of milk
and honey that’s gone too far
last human now roaming free, clover bells from hidden caves ring deep
to tumbling rocks and then you run again
Multiplying vision dreams, the seaweed on eternal sand turns gray and
then bows out flowing to blue skies
A one way glass
Covers the eye flash on astral gold flights
Secrets are now left behind, boldly going no one knows through
loss of time and waiting fruits to grab on
