Poem: here we go...
all aboard this speeding bullet-brain
train wheeling whoop-de-loops around
the center of the station of your soul
(as i know it) waving with a grin as i pass
each time around hitting the bumps up &
down & into a blaring white-walled window
of perception in this shattered glassy-eyed
madness i take the mainline with a vengence
while blasting them ruby red letters across
all lines of communication a fizzling electric
fuzz that draws sharp the seconds of quick
quarter-turns & launches the thought
from mind... turn... to tongue... turn...
back to brain... turn... to pencil-thin tracings
that... turn... turn back to manic-driven memories
of this letter & that letter wrought from a
wailing screeching hunger for contact...
turn... for touch... turn... for a missing link...
turn... turn... turn... turn...
still paying for the ride but looking
really looking for the penny...
turn... turn... turn... turn...
the penny that finally derails me......
