"The Child who once saw the Wind"


-What a strange relationship we had yet the only time I felt love was then The Refrigerator Mother was far too cold my back against his warm chest felt just right "Spending endless nights contemplating on Chinese propaganda, philosophy, and flight all emotions were devoured right through your heart Oneness kept us Insane in a world full of Sanity I've lost my sight now though I'm much too young" He taught me how to see when others were beginning to learn how to feel -I'm deteriorating now my love Made a wish Blew it thrice Opened fingers For the lines in the sky Kept my eyelashes And cracked my spine But honest tears I can no longer cry No human contact in far too long Turns a day into 105 Goodbye you who gave me wings and broke them apart Taught me of Life and Death all at once The one who created and exploited me When the three headed alligator of what was once in me blows gently through the sky and my pieces disassemble through the wind My name will remain between Twisted Lines No Human Eye can see Besides that one wide-eyed kid He'll watch me flowing through the waves Never here nor ever there I've been invited to Nature's Concert Mustn't be late (They call her evil just cause she cycles a different way Awaiting the New Flower Moon No Blood to be spilled just a Red woman to be gained) -S.V
