VII

Fame

Space and light bends around me

looming forward ever farther carefree

my mind evaporating into the sands of time

through the waves in the eyes of the divine

upon a distant tide my soul resides

waiting for that hopeful cry

ever so grand, Tis my folly

waiting in this grand lobby

 

dirt upon an empty hill

one million crows circle in for the kill

a song of souls of space and rats

In tears my flesh through these empty flats

through the lands within my dreams

does my spirit reside in the desert leaves

upon a mountain I know call home

a silent ringing on a telephone

 

the voice from way up high

airline food in the skies

to what secrets do the demon lie
