Hail Stones of Summer
You're to damn green to have ripples in the soul
be overgrown with the bramble of harsh tones
but there they lie deep in the ink of your mind
dirty little diamonds with scars between their thighs...
what became of that whirlwind of life in the eyes
they've turned into hail stones in mid-summer skies
How to reverse this bend of the mind- let it bloom again
you the non- listener-sprinter from ripples of happiness
the street corner barker with lungs spitting fire and lye
feeding off echoes from those dirty little diamonds...
