beer will do so well tonight.Where did I learn about the things that outweigh regret... was it in the footsteps of the blue bearded boys swinging from the sirens on the bowery, tugging blooming summer passages from the bottoms of their shoes…in the Villon smiles of the hookers on the Rue St Denis, smoking cannonballs and stained glass, casting thousand-year-old shadows in the grey light... imagining the reflection of your face in Napoleon’s watery pools, while the sheets steamed and we listened to the soul voices in the night echo their sweet venom and wonder.
Ah, to kiss the emerald waves of a dream and spit only regret and sorrow. Feel the Idaho night crawling on your skin and the moon rises like a giant bubble in your veins - Pass the toothless pilgrims in the alleys and prairies with 4,000 winters tattooed on their faces, and melt in the heatwaves that dance and paint pictures of their dreams in the distance.
Pass through the sound of this TV Babylon and spear the voices of the midnight ghosts riding beyond the light plains - shedding the straitjackets in their minds - the key to the lock is in the bottom of the boot.
"Turn it", she said. Only then can you feel the spreading of the springtime against the crispness of the fall.
Close my eyes and let me hear the sound of my blood as it burns across the schoolyard earth – let me see the face in every blade of grass, tree and the moon – and know that it’s mine.
Let me travel a thousand miles lookin’ through the back of my head and maybe I’ll find all the blessings of never trying...
