simon lebon may not be god but he's filling in for the time being

who knew
duran duran
were so plugged into the universe
all-knowing
and shit
wow
i think
who DO you love
when you come undone?
it's been no fun
with you gone
twelve days and
forty nights
and i've stayed on the ground
no flights leaving anymore
from this airport
while i've subsisted on postcards
and phone calls
from different time zones
lit by midnight sun
and warmed by desire drying
out
in the desert
until along came a spider
in the form of an IM
from her
five minutes down the bloody road
wanting to be friends again
be like we were
our maybe never really were
but could have been
in those pretty kind of
thoughts
wanting a back rub
a quick meeting
maybe just to cuddle
or test drive the definition
of cheating
when suddenly i realize
i'm no longer starving
i'm eating
well
too
so i don't bite the apple
though
being tempted is nice
and this may be a wilderness but
i'm sure as hell
not christ
