Paradise Tossed

I hold my own hand

Walking on cracked dreams

They poke and stroke upward

Soft and hardly in heaven

 

Walking through the undergrowth

Whispers tickling ears with frosty bites

Texture everywhere, in on everything

All the skin and light and soulful misty mights

 

Sights sensing my sensory salutations

Tempered into being with my growing wonder

Capturing stars in human shaped jars

Seeing into the nothing of deep sleep

 

Clouds rule here on high

Soft and mellow soundboards to our whim

Lightening the load for each individual soul

Carpeting together the woven wandering

 

Dreams may come and rise and grow

Strangely changing oneness into us

Lest eternity ebbs for nothing

Flowing origin into our manifolds

 

My perspective is granular here

In the abyss of reflection and shapelessness

Tired continuity of bloody watered soil

Tearing myself from my self

 

Waiting for a you called true

Insisting hands held are ever together

Wishing paths walked point forward

Feeling this frictioned existence

 

This heaven seems hellishly born

Unavoidable and unstoppable

Burning all so that next might be

Destructive creation we are and see

 

Lost and tossed utopian bliss

This otherness that makes all of this

Infinite detail in nothingness

The beauty of this fatal kiss
