just

open the unlocked door
to the me that somewhere within u
u know exists
find the goddamn courage
to let the world make its lists
of who is
and who is not
allowed to walk through
for u knew it all
before it ever got confused
your spirit got loosed
and caught up in the rafters
of the moon & sun & stars
aloft on a santa anna breeze
oh do u hear the definite music
of the swaying palm trees?
a whole world caught in the death
glare
of luminescent commerce
and satanic rage
sick terminally
itself
and the earth a blood-soaked ball
fuck it all
let god take the names
that is if god can find himself
make himself appear
surmount forget sublimate
the fear
that maybe just maybe all is dream
within dream just tell me
one thing
do u deem
me memorable enough
to forget?

so for u i will build no further
false monuments
u = no longer my island my atoll
my refuge
my balm
just as
time steals all
and green turns to brown
and what is lost is never found
and dry grass is burned
transforming
matter
into infinite food
for stars
