Crossroads talk like trees Staring at the street Backboned sights Unable to dance around Yet instead prefer to sink In the inverted rock pit Gutless planets building The most fearful liquid Nebular night Flowing cracks Drowned in beauty and salt Diamonds with no pride Pale language Produces greenish blush Fingertips crash and grow Labyrinths of submarine talk Paper stone steps Keep flying straight Fastest way to get lost Highway notes Portals keep them cold Trigger every verse Beyond and beyond Until every cloud falls Snails shall grow and evolve Oh, sorry about that Took the sharpened road Flat spikes release coral spores Psychedelic magma floods Should avoid looking up…

Wow, Cesar, this write takes us to the heavens, beneath the water with "submarine talk" and across a very intriguing highway. Could the coral spores be lava? (I've been warned not to look up.) Quite a journey here! Thanks for the experience. Love, carolyn
