Catalina W****s in the Hue of SummerA Poem by PerditionHe stares it alone Quietly, through his childhood trance Glass of last night’s opiate Spinning on coffee table Stereophonic disarray His lost name and companion Her name to breath Drips, a bitter wound on lips In every hell shouts a mystery From French adolescence to first copulation Dawn’s Catalina shuffling w****s It all repels self-prophecy Distorting the flaw Outside, The belled alarms begin to ring Fabled bird sings over his thankful worm Shunning from his natural high And I am overtaken Stunned, for the sudden need unconscious Soon I no longer care nor understand I look for the remnant stages Raw lensed and sensing my first song as a single fly Bursting at the summer's end Weeds growing inside me Promising I will harshly recall Bringing down the vagabond Freedom grows its moss across my name Shameless wars seeming the best alcohol and memory haze I scarcely return My head begs the impossible And with a word This world cries out my treason, "Alive". © 2018 Perdition
