on a spur, on a airy fairy cool aid
you sew your lips
and speak your mind, every fantasy
touches the gold dust, no longer quite gold
with the spectators eagers to drink in this delight
overwhelming, banal retreats
as euphoria reaches to a level unheard of, an
achievement don’t you think?
passions, being human is not living in one ivory tower
or program codes, executing without a shifting of legs,
wanting fresh air, left out.
like the kid that never fitted in, now grown up
he is still walking on memory’s lane,
unable to do what is whimsical.
trapped, stamped in the oblivion of having to do
as everyone else,
even when it makes no sense.
break free, chains, iron, on soul caged
in this human flesh,
and i have to be just like you
because you can, you will, you must,
sewn lips unbounded, a heart able to do
whatever it must.
soaring free, and tell me – follow the damn yellow road,
it leads to salvation
and as for you, you have lived, tasted, fulfilled
every whim that money can buy,
you say to follow truth, to follow what is right,
your always held the keys didn’t you?
what is right becomes you, the godhead,
lowering himself, prostate, with chastity unblemished
you who have tasted every delight!
delightful devil, masquerading with a peacock strut
pecking on dirt, bent low when the talk is holy fire,
the walk is a hellish dream reborn.
a dream that most try to attain and cannot,
you smirk when men get envious: see, see,
i am envious not, how you play with words,
wish i could be just like you,
to play with gold and still be sacred: such whims
die when it becomes quite obvious that earth
only has one god.
