Sun Moon Bliss 2
The bonewind speaks remiss of bone
Always pulling up and headed towards the foam
When the mermaid skins were like scales in signature
Falling off aenome or when the sea was our home
A man is awkward in his body
looking at the sky, he begins to callibrate
the waxpull of Daedulus, winged towards the narrow
shelf of the wind, pulled up to glance and speculate
When the Seasons should change, why they had ceased to change
spring into winter or fall descending
into lime or tangerine
the sasspool punks skating July like hot raindrops
Of Lemon Sugar Candy
With their Mohawk paintings, their sundial porches
Hit the Video with a privilidge so positive
Even Dali couldn't surrender his Vision to the Lord
The Surreal Elephants dancing tragically in the Wind
in the Bonewind
that had started somewhere lost
Some place Deep in the Forests of Lebanon or Antigua
Or maybe the tragedy of Dawn was no Infinite Tragedy
or Sea of Memory
with the Unwelcome Sun reminding us of the long shadow we once cast
Against the Dim Chaos, the garden of Remorse
The Hopeless Treason Against God and his Own
Once two, but not two of light
Only shadows, like shadows longing for light
Cleaved in Stone within the Wall of the Cave
Not desicatted to Gleam Brass or break the Distance from Virgin Night
But Cast in New Eyes to see more clearly now
The path of Travails and the Raptors Ascent
Incredible eagles through the veil and Hellbent
Hell of the Moon the station and the sent
The ones who knew the devils hand, what was borrowed, what was lent
Daedulus looked and there was no one left
Kept Flying up over and away the bereft
Casting the Prism with its Diurnal Motion and radiant Breast
The spectral eye spectared by the passing of worlds
Into their own unknown
path of mysterious orb and Crest
From Enchanted spins to who knows but where the chaos Goes
Out hitting into longcast Rays, the specks of Crystal
Stretching the lavender opiates with long eyes
As celestial clouds well up with obsidian aether
Making a haphazard flight out of Nightengales in the ForestSky
But now the Sun is not out
once again the quiet of Night
its black cunning and whisper of Fright
not divided, but glistening -- extending --growing in Might
