Oranges and Oil Ii

Orange and oil 
The old man
smells odd like 
burnt wires Black 
&
cryptic desires 
oranges and oil!
Static erupts like infinite fire.
Noise white grows in volume,
even higher.
oranges and oil...
Oxygen runs onyx tubes lighter.
The old man is a dying fighter...
Orange and oil odd objects 
ornate resonate with our oblique imagery.
Tangled on barbwire...
oranges and oil
smell like a burnt twisted wire!
Copper taste to tip of the tongue. 
Deeps scars bury
tinted desires 
all expire
oranges and oil 
infinite fire visions of white noise grow lighter.
...or oblique imagery resonates 
as objects oily with afterthoughts 
detonates resonates
oranges and oil
The old man has grown lighter...
