Every Day is not Electric Skittles
I will take this one
lacksidas-ily
not having so much in my mind
the adjacent weekend
not leaving much colours
to work with in midweek
confusion
my captive audience
of Captain James
can wait for digits to
roll
must keep the mind -
muscle moving
so i envision every day
gorgeous
must make the minutes
like skittles not pavements
and describe the motionless
tides of hours
must be a poet and not
search for dope
amongst the myriad ashes
must hide the every day
cigarette drag
amongst zoo creatures
defining suburbia
must drink in the
morning
not having an evening
to subtley wow pop
harmonious
for I've known
(as you know)
for ages now that
every day is not
electric skittles
that the rainbow
is only an aftertaste
and the best taste the
taste of rum in
our stomachs
the sweeties which
shine out the brightest
are the ones which reject
the most light
this isn't whimsy
nor chemicals
its Science
and Science is truth
and we're at our best
(our best being THE best)
when telling truth
to get fucked
so frazzling eye sockets
with dangerous chemicals
cheerio - ing the
bitumen shores
abdicate heavily to
psychedelic seas
and wake up groaning with
nausea
as frightened of death
as everyone else
so thats neither
here nor there
as savvy of Gods
as shoulder shrug
masses
tho heavier of it
in mind
and time equalizes
our plus-es and zeroes
only God doesn't die
addicted
I'll take your
applause and your pats
on the head now
I just felt my mind
melt to silence
took a massive gulp
of stomach - wreck golden
continuation of
circle
