they tell me this is love

Post by saw » February 11th, 2015, 7:58 am

how does one decipher
the core, with all that other
show business
going on in the background

a cast of thousands !
Extra Extra read all about it !
read the lines on my face
face the music

the music holds the keys
get it ?....the keys
how 'bout the sharps and flats, how 'bout
the sharp edges on my flat top haircut

someone told me they are coming back
it all comes back. the clothing
the music, paintings....my memory
the good, the bad, the ugly

back through the worm holes
of this spaghetti western face,
the holy worms have spoken !
have crept inside my mind's ears

and made me want to write these things
these words...right here, right now
and I'd like to disavow them
but I can't because this happens to be my truth

my mind has an addiction
it likes to wander without restraint,
and when it needs a fix, well
all I can do is get out of the way

they tell me this is love
If you do not change your direction
you may end up where you are heading
