Desert Chocolate Island
Oh Isle of embattled shore's
Coast's abound of glass shale sand
Below protracted marsh land
Where boats of the conquerors once moored
Where fish in the summer was cooked and caught
Area 51 actuaries research
Set upon a temporary bush camp perch
Lurching forward swiping away the tinder fire smoke
Away from tired red cry eyes
Searching for rescue ships in the distance
Paradise drifts
Writing S.O.S in large letter's
Message in a Bottle
What time is it ?
What day is it ?
Why did I leave ?
Is the world really round ?
Or Flat ?
Am I ever going back ?
Is anyone ever coming back ?
Or have I fallen off the grid?
Like Air Malaysia Flight MH370
Is this Heaven ?
Who am I talking 2?
Am I Me ?
Or am I You ?
Who is writing this ?
The Survivor?
Or the best Guess?
Like a passport in a furnace
Of destroyed evidence
The only piece
In a inquest process
