Strings... playing silent breaths.
Wings... flying into death.
Sing... Sing this song with me.
Eyes... clouded by a spec.
Cries... clad in muffled steps.
Rise... Rise so low like me.
Mind... angled towards the moon.
Signs... point too far too soon.
Rhyme... Rhyme so trite like me.
Words... thinning by the tock.
Herds... of some fruitless thoughts.
Burn... Burn the ice on me.
Yearn for vice like me.
And turn the rice you see
To dried and blackened grains
Inside my gut-plains where it never rains.
And see my mice in maze
Lost in ever chilly corner,
Reaching for a vision warmer with their icy gaze.
Do I hit upon the vision that I wish I'd see
With fine precision?
Or am I word-shots in the dark?
Relentless ammunition:
Bullets bouncing off the walls
With blurbs of indecision.
I'm such a fucking tangle,
Forming useless rue that dangles.
And yeah, I love it.
