| Liquid Pain | |

Inspired by a drunken walk home from one of my benders! Walking through the dark and dripping streets Water reeling in the angry skies Water glazing stone beneath my feet Water smudging glass before my eyes Liquid ever swirling through my brain Ether, water, rivers of my dreams Roaring down to unknown steamy drains Oceans fall and earth cracks at the seams As melodies these noises could be loved Like flesh it's texture much adored But mad attempts to change the view just proved That water did not love, just swelled and roared. Despair had been my doom while on the sea Those empty worlds my only goalless aim Despair rewarding efforts to be free Adventure leaving habits old and lame To find a place where water silent stood Yet would not stagnate with its lazy ways Began a dream that in it's beauty could Transport me from the city to the bays. And so I left the world of peace and love An outcast from the human realms therein And carved a course within the space above To make it prosper, free from pain and sin.
