Mind-boggling the mind be.

I sits in wonderment.

Music roaring through, roaring impossibly though.

What is it?

Ripping out soft folded noodles like as though there to be a field dressing underway.

Nearby green bush leaves freshly red splattered.

Hear the cartilage tear.

Harmless, not to fear, my friend.

One ear shot.

Cancer.

Lots of jangling and clanging there to be.

As in all, adapt, adapt, adapt.

The sweeps of the hollows, wired brightly with the spiders spool.

Shiny titanium threads.

Leaves it there be no doubt.

The moment be now to jump.

The abyss smiles, soft, liquid, long hair.

Hot.

They squirms a mean dance to leaves no doubt.

She has to have left it, better times away.

Circus lights turn black as caves of the distant south.

Desert winds flap shit from the tarps overhead.

Leaving no doubt, leaves no doubt.

Side festival never ending and it can kill you.

Will kill you.

Reborn.

Simple flight.

New there, be’s it unknown too.

She sways back and fro, long dress, slight wind over me.

Breasts are me promise to joy,

Dandelions and there a succulent fulfillment.

I believes you, she said, I believes you.

Walks away, frail back stuck full of today’s’ arrows.

Deceived, cheated, disillusions there much be.

Cascading sadness as flows dirty silver runoff.

Thick cover, it can feel it on the perimeter.

Desert winged sirens lays she’s claims once again.

No way to go from there, only to come here.

Symbols, sand shapes and whistling cactus fire.

Mouse nibbling pink flower off peyote button.

We sit, watch, accept, it enters us and therein finds; it is perched.

Gripped by puncturing talons.

Nether world shall not release you.

You so belongs to it.

Can’t.

Is you…
