look at the world with new meaning
are you the dream running far from the shore?
like exaltation carry ships past a million years of movement
the future half ingested
yearning for a deeper breath
close the frequencies pinned behind the damage
wrap a piece of treachery in every envelope
a sentence half completed
a word locked deep inside
the final view from your eyes
images pace my determination
every sequence out of memory
flash light photography catches a lingering breath
an empty hour inside your head
reverse the substance left on your lips
memorize the forecast in every detail
perspiration evaporating sickness
dust off dreams in the memory ward
you’re the reach for focus without modified lenses
I’m running up the stairs
don’t pretend we face this battle all alone
don’t lock up all instinct
don’t fake direction
don’t manufacture half separations
the gift in your hand speaks with clear stained skies
Shattered Mind
