Drunk on aluminum,
The archaeologists found a
Tree-hugger within the
Miasmal smoke and the
Blinded vision, deep
In the sea of love which is
Full of tears and rain.
The Murderer sent a search party into oblivion to
Sail away on a white
Ladder on Independence day.
They landed in Babylon who
Welcomed them to the
Night sky, where the good
People and wise men go.
One cried:
"There's no bravery here among these weighty ghosts,
Why should I write a love song to no one when
I can sit and have conversation with my thirteen year old self?"
And it was Irvine who replied, "you're beautiful,
My city love, but I'm out of my mind and it's a long way to happy. Won't
You lie in my bed white with me?"
And there was a hole in baby Britain when
Judas cried out in pain:
"Say hello, wave goodbye my lover, my sweet Adeline. Please forgive me.
We're not right, but be yourself because Heaven's dead."
Wind and rain thundered from the cursed sky and struck
Her with nightblindness, freeing
The forgotten astronaut whose time had come.
She screamed- wretchedly and misused,
Sending the Cynic back
To a child's mind.
