Talons Unlocked

Original perception
That wave of thought
Just breaking into breath

Eyes awake 
The formative tissue merges
Seeking destiny with each pounding rivet

The sensory system develops 
Highly charged with Nabisco appetites 
As valves open and close filtering 
Shimmering cultural ennui 
World weariness revolts

Motors charged innervated
With bold forward missions 
Spiritual prowess 
Masked in the empire of symbolic 
Dominance

To give up the cultural mandate
Reheat the branding mechanism 
Of limited identities clinking in chain mail
And release the contracted talons as they are
Ready to unfold, break loose
