After

Brackish lighthearted thoughts filled my mind
ticklish inebriation, buzzing my brains to doldrums
sensuous dilated webs co-arsing my entire being
hair brained inaction's taking its toll 
with its attendant carnage following in tow
a cacophony of whispers envelopes the abode
as rustled banters came from above.

And on and on it wrote 
the music playing with a stutter,
waltzing with a flutter
cringing from chatter
bursting with a clatter

And at last it cranked
with a clang, out it went with a bang
thump thump thump it clattered
in a flash it all shattered.
buzzing away noiselessly 
shimmering voidlessly.

The end filled the void
blackness lighting the path
the end heralding the beginning.
and at last it wrote 
death sprouting life.
