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
