"Black Molasses"



Black Molasses 
holds to ransom 
footprints 
sucked into 
Tropic of Capricorn mud
as bushfires bleed

crushed and burnt 
acrid smoke...

juxtaposed on a dissecting table
at some point a losing strategy

Famed gold crepuscular rays angling down
Knifing in between, through volcanic haze 
Hualalai and Mauna Loa’s crowns
Fire Goddess Pele greets fresh island day

Fuchsia blooms explode, steal attention
Pollens mingle on zephyr coastal breeze
Hallowed entry, this tropic dimension
Surf...

In the rocking chair of swept memories and went for a wild white knuckle ride 

Swayed but not faltering although he swung like a junky...

I drive the night because of open road.
My retreads are sounding strong.
Hauling cars up from New Orleans
Where I'm not sure that I belonged.

Traded whiskey for a woman
At a bar in Abilene.
Then a long haul up...

Cold Morpheus snowflakes descended all night
You blinked them away with amphetamine tears,
A veil so defiantly, sugary white
When the whole sleeping world disappears;
For who will remember your un-ravaged face
When you stood like a child at the...

 you dive into a sacred pool littered with ritual remain.

My strength, my comfort, my everything
Over time I became weak unable to use my voice,
