All my poems about you turn into song
lyrics that ramble and treble with rhythm
and annotated geometric striking symbols
colliding binary clashes in the mind like cymbals
pointing at the spiraling crystalized patterns emerging
(these words twist around each other) meaning
I don't have a good metaphor
I lost all my connections, pictures, and pleasures
And around 5,000 words I had written about you
And your silk kimono skin and how you broke my bed
All the while saying "if space and time are connected
through expansion, then we should do this again
at the compression" I will only ever not know you
again in the world of Benjamin Button, but here
the void swallows all expressions and impressions
and everything else on that damn phone that is now
redacted electronic impulses, broken
psychoanalysis for the neurosis
drugs for the meandering existence
and spiral dynamics to explain this conscious
experience
All things will be taken by the void
Space and time seem to be expanding and our
Theories predict a crunching, imagine everything
In existence reversing after an eternity
My mind is absent while I'm looking at her
I never saw it coming
Like a thief in the night
My girl ran off with some other man
And now I’m sitting here crying
My babies long gone, gone gone gone
She’s just like a pistol
Gunning me down alright
She’s like a golden ring
I lost somewhere last night
My babies long gone, gone gone gone
She ran away way way
What more to say say say
I’m a cowboy take the shot no chaser
(Like a cowboy I’m too proud to chase her)
