Brain Smashing full of thoughts
Bouncing off memories I wish I’d lost
Releasing steam bottled too long
Heading for harm’s way with nothing
but a song
and a lick
and a prayer
nothings there
Infinite things I have to express
Words tumbling over bitter anger
Lost in time or so I had thought
Equinox brought me to an interesting spot
Laid bare
Empty words
Speak volumes
To deaf ears
Intoning my speeches memorizing words
So the vomit of terror and anger remains
Who do I spew all this nastiness to
When I have cleansed all those with answers
With a song
And a lick
And a prayer
Nothings there
So I escape into my own silence
Confusing times for everyone
Usually vocal and entertaining
Crystalline quiet nestles into my mind
Packing fear
In the attic
Far in a corner
Something’s there
Awakening the person I have become
Allowing the child to rest in safety
Wishing the spirit could cure evil deeds
And the soul could gleefully live
On a song
And a lick
And a prayer
Everything’s there
Bouncing off memories I wish I’d lost
Releasing steam bottled too long
Heading for harm’s way with nothing
but a song
and a lick
and a prayer
nothings there
Infinite things I have to express
Words tumbling over bitter anger
Lost in time or so I had thought
Equinox brought me to an interesting spot
Laid bare
Empty words
Speak volumes
To deaf ears
Intoning my speeches memorizing words
So the vomit of terror and anger remains
Who do I spew all this nastiness to
When I have cleansed all those with answers
With a song
And a lick
And a prayer
Nothings there
So I escape into my own silence
Confusing times for everyone
Usually vocal and entertaining
Crystalline quiet nestles into my mind
Packing fear
In the attic
Far in a corner
Something’s there
Awakening the person I have become
Allowing the child to rest in safety
Wishing the spirit could cure evil deeds
And the soul could gleefully live
On a song
And a lick
And a prayer
Everything’s there
