I saw you flailing in the fountain
With your failing masterplan
A co-conspirator that speaks only
Through sleight of hand
One look into your eyes
I realized how much I wanted in
I will not cross your enveloping glow
A flower that will never grow
Unless it grows without a stem
A flower that will turn its thorns upon itself
Your GPS will never find the place
That's worthy to begin
Your dictionary never finds the words to defend...
Backwards halo
Never find the means to...
Caulk the ego
Struggle to incinerate a pattern that you've made
A portal that will seal itself
Upon your subconscious command
A calico scarecrow will tend the nest when you go
I notice nightingales will never cross
The threshold to your door
A magnet that detracts that which it beholds
This feeling never shows...
This feeling never shows the way out...
The way out
Exhale the universe
Inhale the universe
Exhale the universal barking at the breakers...
Quilting on the claws
Feeding off the shapeshifters never really ends it all
Home for the holidays
