Justin Gildow Poems

May Norton plays the piano downtown in the Concert Hall
Located somewhere in the Promenade
The beauty of her melody
The music she plays
...

We run up and down barefoot through the street
We're both dazed and happy in this world
Bubblegum heroes pull us through the day
Sparks of magic fizzle in the sky
...

It's all elemental
When the Candy Girl and the Electric Youth meet
The digger is going up and going down
Rising up and rising down
...

We say a prayer in front of the church in Warakiya
Afterwards we'll take the first few steps into a night of horror
Our weapons fastened to our hips
We walk on through Warakiya
...

There's a costume party in the ballroom
And in all the other rooms
There other guests socialize and have a laugh
While taking time out posing for photographs
...

Throw the shackles off your ankles
And fly away tonight
Fly away to another place in time
Fly away to another state of mind
...

Cast a shadow
And hope the illusions will follow
In this day
Nothing can be taken for granted
...

Sleeping peacefully in my bed
Dreaming wonderful dreams
And in my mind
I'm enjoying the image of a beautiful tranquil night
...

The night of the 8 eyes is upon us
In the scroll, there's a scripted opus
For it says the 8 eyes are what makes the universe
As well as the existance of love
...

Come to me now
Be sensual to me
Slide your arms around me
Show me how lovely you can be
...
