Stranger Close By Me

Here
Now
Living
Purity
Immorality
Darkness, my crystal chandelier
Forgot how  to sparkle in ballrooms now full of mud
Integrity is packed in soundproof boxes, shipped to the archives, sealed, wrapped in duct 
tape.
A re-occurring  dream goes on and on and on: laughing water fountains slapping my wingless 
shoulder blades, as they blind me I step on life....
