Be here so totally it
changes everything

(She's so New York
City)

You can enjoy her
enjoying her beauty

Crash through the beauty and
the pain
(you wanna ride with me)

Set yourself on fire with the
freedom again
(come ride with me)

You need to feel the wind and
the strain of everything
falling behind you

Strange sunlight filtering into
your mind at
illicit speeds
(it's just the dream baby,
I know you wanna...
ride with me)

Crash the portals
down the floodgates

something is washing ashore
here

(ghosts remember the shifting
coastline)

Knock on the green door
that is no longer there

Lift your glass and
raise your cheer

For these are the
Poetry times

Some say she couldn't use
her own magic

Others, that fire burns
its way home

Me, I noticed tiny
specks of glass in the sidewalks of
4th avenue

And reckoned them to
be the same as
stars

so I'm still alive
somewhere in the future

somewhere in a time I have
not prepared for

Having worn out the gods
(I am cradled by the
goddess)

The one who cares for
warriors and wayward children
of which I am
both

We write poetry sometimes
living on the streets
it shouldn't be this sad

To fall into ecstasy
remember when we knew
it would grow like this in bliss

And I had so much time
to listen to your voice

If you believe you are
beautiful

Nothing will harm you

(All my primal lives)

Come shinning
(bloodbeat of the
drums)

Boom-ba-boom-boom

She has the cool
fire of the old
world

(sort of a panther dancer
white heat flame)

meeting we sense
spirit
purity of enlightened
animals

matching frequencies
surpassing the gods of
domed temples

Hey Central Park Firefly
We wished Proust happy
birthday tonight

Outside on 5th avenue
after French class

( upper west side
dinner on a rooftop,

Full moon talk of
neo-positivists
skydives,
Brazilian wives

and the forever of
endless infinity
within
NYC

New York Goddess Magic
(hidden in the circle)

Secret time flow power
the Magi float
invisible icons
towering

Waiting to infect
your bloodstream
with unending
perfection

We shouldn't worry so Much
about forever
until we're never gone

Nowhere else to dance
but now,
Dance but now
(there is a place we can meet / In between all this)

After the phantasm
(stars burn out)

river runs dry

(left with only the
breath)

Pure life
a small spark that ignites
everything

afterthoughts
future
city

rain
lightning
freedom

Raven
cloud
thunder

sun
wind
moon

forever
lost
found

remember
us

sort of need to be loved
(in a sacred way)
relax into the dreams you've sown
you are always home

So much happened here
in these primitive dwellings

The aloneness helps you
feel your poetry

Stay with the fear
of these places

I wear the dark city
skyline like a blanket

sat right there with 

the gods

(left their temples behind)

How much blood

needs to be 

spilled

Before 

securing a place

in Valhalla

Show me
where to go
Goddess

Where I can
Live
and Love
and Ride
Free

I need to be a warrior
for someone

I tried to save you
for so long

the devil took you
from me

I hope my gods are
stronger  than
their's
