Going to, Coming From
Written while watching the sunset from a bus
He's always going to or coming from
Most recently riding upon the night train from Africa
Rainbow country of identity
Suffers no fools but cant help to greet them
Whoring himself to the quickest bidder
Besides, he's usually the highest in the room
It's not his fault
Personally I blame the drugs not him
Pills and cannabis unravel a tightrope, hovering taught above a precipice, diving two valleys
A Dionysian maelstrom adjacent to the comfort of security
The acrobat takes his position, a lyre plays, a jester serenades
The acrobat falls, to which side is irrelevant
It was the wind that blew him anyway
Too much fast living will have on jabbering archetypal and Hellenic prose bullshit
It could even happen to you
Not to this man, however, for he is mad
He describes colours at sunset and castle shapes in clouds
He is not even at peace with his meritocratic position
I am this man, he is dead, and I am fey
