A Sliver of Nirvana

In cut throat fashion the sadist kindly applies the garrotte The guitar is a bit out of tune and needed some tension Two love birds in soft tune and no further strings attached Lights nearly out and the old record player blasts Ode to Joy But some times these sex games take an unexpected turn Eros and death go hand in hand until the therapist is happy Slowly the noose tightens but fails to dis-please the masochist I am supposed to suffer in pain and plead for more punishment Yet the world turns fuzzy and and I disapprove of such pleasure Ecstasy in all hues and vibrations produce one eternal moment A stroboscope flickers to convulsions of unbelievable delight Near death mixes with rebirth in parallel translucent tangents Cuts open avenues of unbeknown faccets of present past future Which melt into one as harmony’s fuse slices the lute into bits Every neuron becomes visible and galaxies appear in the mind Stashes of transmitters flood the cold and yet blazing hot brain Loops of eternity mingle with nano seconds and conjure a dream ‘I am the chief executioner criminal victim and perpetrator in one’ One final breath and intoxication reverts back to shackles and whip As intranet **** and devious aberration fade away into begging ‘I must have imagined that sado and maso were as tight as a slipknot’ Nirvana sliced and dissected will never again beckon so splintered 03rd February 2020 Contest Pick a Title Vol 13 Lyric Sponsor Edward Ibeh
