Wilderness of broken minds
stares into the neon signs
as the empty boulevard lazily unwinds

motionless topographies
wells of silent melodies
greens and blues and pink and purple memories rewind

laughter sings a dismal song
Mercy wonders what went wrong
Fear cries in desperation, pain in agony

What's beneath the skinny ice ?
I brought myself new roller skates
Days have numbered suddenly
the moon child escalates.

shadows crawl in empty halls
deep beneath the southern mall
the lonely stalker creeps into the noisy afternoon

love meanders like a n anxious
wind inside an envelope
hanging on in quiet desperation to be free!
