In and Out, Prelude To the Epic 'Ins and Outs'

In after going all night off the map to dawn on the newly opened Metaphysical Gridway I am awakened by the black buzz of flies and a persistent hiss of escaping steam in my chest a hole where the piston went misfire specialists been at it all night looks like it is missing altogether heart missing! and I'm supposed to remain calm! I hear the motel desk man's radio voice the motel TV is on an older Aztec console he's reading today's roadside advisory with the ancient music of the spheres under or is it over my angels in white are singing like sirens their little red wagon glissandos up the gravel outside the screen door in the neon local code blue team goes crash cart my ballooning eyes watch a blurring scenario as they pump in earth air fire and water being as my hood was already up so to speak I remain stuck fast waiting for spare parts long into day Out there's neon signs in my head there's a desert motel in my head there's peeling wallpaper in my head there's copulation and murder in my head there's smashed windows in my head there's a falling sane man in my insane head From "Engine of Didactic Beauty" available on Amazon http://tinyurl.com/nhfk6dr
