Ibiza

Lorenz

It's an empty house perched on the hill

that was once blue 

 Often in love .

Always dreaming ...

On the doorstep when the sun

sets its load ,

A hairy guy flirts with the four strings

of a country landscape .

Around the cheerful  fire 

a joint is shared  among mouths .

stars never married to  the dark...

Everyone follows the lyric of their own delirium.

At 20 years why bother working 

or going to war with  a woman ?

It's quite an effort to take the boat  out

to fish offshore on a forgotten island 

called Ibiza ...

 In the morning ,opening our eyes ,

wrapped around a blonde

who was too cold in London 

and sought spirituality in a raga 

by Ravi Shankar ...

 For  altamont angels ,entrance to paradise 

is forbidden ! 

 Here,all wearing a tatoo like legacy of death 

which means to love one another ...

And night will pass like a dream .

 Maybe ,children elsewhere their wide eyes 

open in a bright flash ?

 We think about it for a moment 

then tired falling asleep  

afting biting into  the blonde ...

  Only clammy heat of a body  

as evening prayer .

  Winter is not welcome in Ibiza ! 

  Man, I stopped believing in the legends

of the old backpacker ...

  Phil has passed away of a psychedelic overdose

of critical thinking .

 Jim became a priest then killed his wife 

after a real bummer in Montreal .

Pat returns to London and had three or four kids

with a Paki who introduced her to god  

at the local mosque .

As for me, I'm still hanging out 

in the subburbs of a blog in the middle of somewhere,

filled with the joy of writing  craps 

that nobody care about ...

 The empty house on the hill 

was sold to a jet setter .

 Far from the Carrib' island 

the insiders of the cursed list are nostalgic 

of the good old days when fish was easy  

off the coast of  Ibiza bay ...

                The youth of the characters lives as if existence could be turned into an endless summer. But the world does not owe them their utopia. It is a clash between hedonism and time and time inevitably wins.

                  Revelation without church.
                  Communion without confession.
                  Love without ownership .
                  Time without consequence ...
                  It's time to pay the bill guys !
