Personal, Passionate Truth

Olfactory, gustatory flight of mind chemicals
 Ransom on a molecular taste
 Fallen flowers abscond with recent soil
 Burning candle oil to reminisce the paste
 
Its all leather and feather
 Strap some animal sound
 To make your carpet alive
 Slinging carpeter's paint through hides
 
A cave in the carcass never bought or sold
 Our marker is the target
 To relive ample thought
 Cash memory bounty with forgotten lambs
 
Slurpy through seaform mercury
 The sea creatures in soupy climbing
 Mixed up elements stashed on paper
 Making houses and grave scrawlings
 
Bacon to banish the stress
 Dumping down a one way mess
 Township to impound thought
 And go about its pattern
 
Its alright, its lather for babes
 The construct we navigate through
 Can never touch our personal, passionate truth
