Seething smile holding back a million heart attacks,
Spoken breath, the venom, a catalyst,
...
Remembering, remembering, Always remembering to forget, to be forgot,
To move swiftly and purposely towards life,
...
Beauty compared to setting yourself on fire,
Eyes set to “safe mode” dial back hours (Analog telephone, hear your voice when you rattle them bones) ,
...
With scissors at hand,
I dissect memories,
...
Dry those tears,
Rollin' industrial born, demons,
...
The cool mint air of fall,
Hung low across the misty mountainside,
...
Tell Elvis I’ll be right back,
From that mountain,
...
The Grave Of Blind Willie Johnson
'Dark was the night',
'Cold was the ground',
Black was the vision,
White was the dream,
The dream, God and his holy kingdom,
With no earthly desire attached,
'cept the gates,
No atoms to praise,
No chemicals to react,
No opinions,
Nor thought,
'Dark was the night',
'Cold was the ground',
The night,
That night they laid me down,
Deep into the dirt,
Home,
I'm-a-comin' home.
