Confused

Do you want to experience? …the life of the writer Who doesn’t really understand Life continually moving to the right Sideways emotional breakdowns Dawning of a lunar sunrise on Tuesday Knights wearing their protective masculinity Mustached feelings of upper lips Lemon butter granules of hope While the working man suffers Whimsical thought patterns of light Illuminate an illustrious psalm of change Do you want to experience? A melon colored symphony of fire Engulfed in a tabernacle in your mind Full of manipulative and aggressive words …thought and devotion becoming friends Going on a journey through emotion Wanting a written record of life The way hazel shaded eyes scope Metaphors that can leave you empty Do you want to Experience? Arabian nights of passionate remorse As regret rears its ugly head to plot Burnt sand between you toes Slicing the soiled epidermal carnage Thirsting for that one moment That somehow rectifies this situation? Left like an anvil on your chest Do you want to Experience? Frostbitten toes turning black and blue Somehow crippling your soul Man of the hour for fifteen minutes Hopping through dimensions of bliss Savage beasts pound on their drums Scantly clad carnivores feed on emptiness Melodic young men fortify thirsts of pleasure Recognizing your peers inner thoughts and emotions Listening and learning the way to refreshment Stands that quench a simple vice Verses sung out of key Do you want to experience? Art simplified through scientific experimentation That can justify exactly why or when A simple beat in the background Enhances words without even trying Sexiness expressed through art of a different breed Breathing life into this astrological union Striking a cord some where deeply untouched But needing to be Not to make anyone feel stupid Writing about the universe seen As progression escapes from the speaker
