Poem Title:
Poem
I saw a black snake twice in my dream Exactly what his presence seemed to mean. Escaping from the same place as mystery Tell me why Automatic killer coming from the dark side getting things done Hillbilly style I was fool caught off guard I had a shovel at my side Murderer I went for the kill He slide away through a crack Beautiful Escape Seconds later the slippery serpent came out again and hissed Again from the same area of my mind that teases black snakes But words came to me instead of hiss Somebody's life has passed them by so fast their head keeps spinning You can't please everybody Bring me all the green grapes apples and red wine Save me from other people's illusions of life. They can't see .....out their own window Not escaping....... the darkness of their mind They fill .................... pockets with polished coal They would have been a candidate to send to war In disposed out of sync they plant flowers we are forced to ignore It was going to be attack of the book worms It was too much of a sore eyesight challenge My snake does me right but fight I not enter fright I am sequestered,trapped by an disabling future a loss of wages working for pigs balls I forget to make diagrams sketches of what I Mean While in Montreal, I was the lumber jacket superman If I kept on acting like a fool Id of crashed large and not made it passed 21
