chanting more, more, more

you laughed

only to cry yourself to sleep

the crowd roared

you gave them everything

then weeped

can’t cry wolf

and expect there to be someone

me

when the roars give out

shame on me

laughing for hours

at your own misery

blood stained hands

drawing happy faces

on the earth,

disappearing is an easy trick

they never tell you that

i don’t know where this is going

it’s not you it’s me

i think we are just heading into differnet directions

blah blah blah

echo’s down empty corridors

empty words

sprayed on empty walls,

begged for the truth

met with the distance

and a beer

my number

is called upon often

defusing bombs

will they

be there

to do the same,

or will i be alone

watching an hourglass sink

down down to zero

and my last memory

will be of a bomb

that didn’t belong to me

bleak affair

warning lights

sparkling cider,

haze of cigar smoke

trouble

pillow case

scribbles of red ink one my forearm

a seven

a couple of J’s

and a smiley face

trial of fire;

belly of butter

churn a wheel

open the door

crank the wire

guild of fire,

we built these chains

latched them on

cried for freedom

watched the light from a keyhole

sail away

like dexter morgan sail away

end up on an island

far enough away

no one knows your face

gone lost without a trace

far enough away

no one will know

your name

binge watched all twenty one seasons

still rewatch for easter eggs

details i might have missed

annotated like a story,

a story that grows with time

Quote~

And as imagination bodies forth
The forms of things unknown, the poet’s pen
Turns them to shapes and gives to airy nothing
A local habitation and a name.

William Shakespeare
(A Midsummer Night’s Dream)
