Miami Night Poem by Night Flyer

Miami Night



Pastel, mescaline skyscrapers growing like crystals on the edge of Miami night
Flowing shattering, splintering colored lights onto a black ocean canvas
A million dreams dissolve into the steamy torridness of this tropical mystery
Melting city of the coral reef
Calls me to share its secrets, its schemes
Emerging from the whirlpool of neon confusion lights
The boulevards are breathing mad revolution,
Capillary cells flowing, the crowds of dank midnight
My eyes assaulted in a red sensory overload of luscious Latin coquettes
Waist deep in a movie that's never been created
Crucified and laughing by the late night Cameo Theater beer orgy
Besieged on all corners
The hobo hoards have conquered sanity's last bastion
Miami night brain cell genocide oozes into the last red eye of the street crowd
Burning yearning, young lust flowing like sweat into the last inch of the hopeless streets
Wild-eyed, the crazy jesters converge into a melting moonlight street symphony,
My blood flowing in palm tree rhythms into rapid delirium tremens of another night on the town
The fractured ocean crowd is breathing in mad procession
Down past the orgasmic paints of dawn
Rainbow paint flowing like a nightmare into the wild-eyed, lusty streets
Art riot shaking the mind of the universal whatever it is
I leave half awake,
Drowning forever in this acrylic bohemian ocean.
I come back to Earth,
Leaving behind the bare bones of last night's street frenzy.
