23 hours ( spx )

  23 hours





i am thinking about us
23 hours a day
i am thinking...



contemplating the suicide of our lives
by allowing sunsets of sweet insanity commanding
our hate filled bodies to breathe
...at ease
at least-for a couple of seconds &
time will be an innocent bystander

weighing cordial intentions and transparent bad actions
back and forth...and back again
simply to feel
if this is genuine real
or just another attempt to wash away the cescendo
of all the memories that keep us sane
in the crazy fertility of depression´s eclipse

feeling a healing stealing  gloom´s room
while your hand touches my heart
& leaves volcanic trails of obsession
dripping down my thighs
only to cloud a mind´s useless stray......


............23 hours
saluting to
agony´s marching band
til i realize in the very last hour
not one thought really wasted
as long as it was spent
on you
