The manifest hysteria

Post by revolutionrabbit » April 22nd, 2013, 2:52 am

The manifest hysteria
rides the wave of archaic knowledge
into the pit of because
because because because
maximum rainbows explode

out here in the deserts of sorcery
my pen bleeds on the thirsty landscape
the day bleeds into the hole it crawled out from

we are on a journey through the quantum zero
nothing times everything direction unknown
I once loved you, then the magic came on

now the angels weep and the devils cry
the abandoned leaves sweep the grave dry
of tears

dust to dust, rain to rain
the haunting sound of the distant train
smokestack enlightenment
blows us all away, grain by morphine grain

I saw your face, and the universe embrace
the inevitable moment, I saw civilizations
rise and fall like a wild flower
I saw you on the backstreets of Paris
a philosopher's whore, a priestess of poetry
a flit in the great novel of forever

the crack of doom and the sack of moon
the lightning of luck and the thunder of fuck

Fine work

I saw you on the backstreets of Paris
a philosopher's whore, a priestess of poetry
a flit in the great novel of forever

the crack of doom and the sack of moon
the lightning of luck and the thunder of fuck.
Brilliant lines.
