Cascade

Oh the air was shining
shining like a wedding ring
barbed like sex
i felt 10,000 volts
my chest was full of eels
pushing through my usual skin
i opened up new wounds
pouting, shouting-
Oh love, like liquid falling
falling in cascades
oh lovelorn victims
laughing in cascades
The sun was rich
rich with a song of sin
my breath melted my words
into strange alphabets
tormenting my tongue
pouting, shouting –
Oh love, like liquid falling
falling in cascades
oh lovelorn victims
laughing in cascades
The heartbeats were echoing
echoing the revolver
emptying into my mouth
i pulled a face from my pocket
and smiled a leper’s grin
i felt somebody close
pouting, shouting –
Oh love, like liquid falling
falling in cascades
oh lovelorn victims
laughing in cascades
