ALL I REMEMBER

Your world collapses A name shies of comeback 
breaks the water for bare bones unaligned you 
hunker down for the happenings didnot fit 

in the shoes of black magic it was a damned 
reversal of the pygmies to become tall the old city 
dies on the hill young steps start a never ending 

descent of the wheels can you stop this vintage flow 
in night king was sitting without a glass 
rolling stones were laughing after the conversation 

and the sons of soil smashed the barriers 
after the illumination cacti become prominently displayed 
in the jungle of weeds wearing nightgowns of thorns 

two headed snakes lapping up the milk from the teats 
of a moon the cow jumps on the hemlocks amidst 
the cries of children of tomorrow
