"Dreaming Of A Purple Walrus"

"Dreaming Of A Purple Walrus"

 

As I snort the cosmic coke

I dream of oozing sweet acid

That falls as sinful temptation

From the cracked dragon's pipe

 

Let the moon reflect purple light

Coaxing me from a wreched reality

Where dreams are juxtaposed

With the sheer arrogance of supposition

 

The injection of bittersweet sorrow

Follows the ecstasy of urban lust

Baptizing me in celestial crescendo

 

Fireflies whisper somber soliloquies

That gently spill from my ear

The hackneyed disposition

Of those who would illegalize (the truth)

 

The brown fetish of my first love (MaryJane)

Has lent herself to the slacker pose

The faith(less) prodigy of indignation

 

The egalitarian elite are now regulated

To dispensing the urban mythology of lies

The price of oil crunched into a conspiracy (theory)

 

As I swim  purple skies 

And climb the deepest ocean

I feel a transient truth exposed

Kissing me as an elegant muse 

 

What was once the mirthless sound

The beaten hooves of the pale rider

Now fade into the perpetual darkness

Of my medicinal, yet potent soundtrack

 

The stars above drip like wax

Falling upon my wreteched brow

 

In response I scream silently

As the cold wave of reality

Grips my somber syntax

 

The sheer ludacris audacity

Of sublime sobriety

Washes over me like a toxic wave

What a 'trip' (mind the pun) into the high...
so colorful and brilliant...
as creative as Lewis Carrolls Alice's Adventure in Wonderland.
My favorite stanza
"The brown fetish of my first love (MaryJane)
Has lent herself to the slacker pose
The faith(less) prodigy of indignation"
How sad you seem at the fate of weeds ego...

You are one of the most original writers I've read. Did you mean mythology? Brilliant lines, each one leading to the next, and the woven with certain skill, a pleasure to read the mind trip, it was

Wow...deep. It seems very dark but your words always make your work beautiful. Well done!
