that song

Post by saw » November 22nd, 2011, 11:01 am

that song
why
why that one
of all the tunes
that could be spun
by random spiders
the DJ picked that one
from the rack of torture

as if he conspired with you
to stab the needle
into the ribs of a doll
with my likeness

but the blow lands lower
and deeper
and all I can hear
at this moment
is the nefarious chuckle
of a demented clown

and those notes
over and again
the lyrics in your voice,
the cosmic scorpion stings
in her perpetual way
If you do not change your direction
you may end up where you are heading

excellant-
reason is over rated, as is logic and common sense-i much prefer the passions of a crazy old woman, cats and dogs and jungle foliage- tropic rain-and a defined sense of who brings the stars up at night and the sun up in the morning---
