Stray Thoughts

The clairvoyant could be a schizophrenic, or is it the other way around?
Cymbals of the mime must be unbearably loud.
Flowers are for glade and not the lapel of blue clowns.

Is it better for a stray to be forever chained down
or go running off with a pack of the unfound. 
After death are we whisked off to heaven
or does the soul shatter against a cold Black wall?

Is faith just a mirage for the eternally weak
or is it a gilded pathway to the purist of all kings?
