singing the future
under skies of a clean blue
away from the scene often charged
the day baked into a mans move
never feeling unsure or even ill
he said the changing guards will
as a color form guides the fingertips
folding the night past the even numbers
odd and matched to the wheels humbled
on a prayer run of burnout squeeling
anticipating worlds to arrive with news
creating and building the soft dry nests
for the seven thousand greeted guests
who weirded up the stage of time
keeping things out of the service lines
strolled from walking trail crossing prints
sold to the highest bidder of bold
retold around the burning ring of gold
just so every voice of winter can hear
screaming his own message for a spell
she called this whole explanation input
as a brave foot stood at the window
to chase off the determined codes
becoming colder near the frozen eyes
staying warm from the light of fireflies
quoted boat captains
spoken old moldy stories
all around many tall ears
glory eyed waiting for the punch
stuck in the rut of sulphur mud
he backed us out with doubts
to collapse the face of our shouts
going low and down over sounds
so the highest felt piercing true
sticking past the solid gripping glue
left from charging battalion chiefs
severed for blood stained meats
the fire died to find some sleep
a blue moon sat filling up with light
falling down over the west to rest
pulling dreams away for caught
morning sang a faithful smell
to a pot of brewing brown roast
I listened to the abstract singing
ready to climb into the future
