Fired
Scarlet spun silken dreams pursue
Self..
As an ancient greek Mythological siren of a restless sea
She sings so eloquently
So deliciously of all those things I would dearly love to forget
Like adoration, its ties its restrictive sailors knots
Which tangle ,which strangle so
Perfectly painful
Within this
Fisher wife guts
Lost at sea
Crumbling so willifully
Understanding (as one does)
That this ship must sink
Must drink the poisonous fluid of defeat
Must also consider solitary confinement
Self contained
Just to observe from now on how many marshmallow moments
are still to be enjoyed
By others
Via all things electrical as pulsing minds palpitations wired
pon tv, magazines and accept
I am finally .. love fired
