Make music from me
pull the bones from my hands
bubbling from my palms
an insomniac's stigmata
setting my own skin on fire
in misguided remembrance
of the intensity of innocence
my veins are violin strings
every word I speak is a eulogy
every move I make is a Tarantella
I am a symphony of cupidity
with a soft tongue but sharp lips
chasing the sweet taste of today
right now
this instant
this breath...
tripping on the tightrope of technology
I am a prisoner
of this suggestive consciousness
I am the widow of memory
Dying rapidly from the disease of time
fatally too intelligent
to keep from folding time and space
between my synapses
motivated to map the mathematics
the cadaverous probability
of the evanescent 'soul'
double helix of our failures
but 2+2 can never explain
how the ghost of relativity
exists in such gravity
idiot-savant terror
possessed from the heart
for this haunting addiction
a shooting gallery romance
So good when it is in
So bad when it has to end
Chasing the sweet taste of today
right now
this instant
this kiss...
He stops my chaos with a single kiss...
