Glass Table:
~Greenie: Never Truly
Rainbowed shadows of life
flickering pale images
winding walls within my mind
the only life they breathe
soft sighs and murmmering cries
the language of loneliness and loss
dreams that never die, yet
never, truly live
~~
Prewritten: mayhem, splinter or periscope, tenor
~Piffin: “Subversible”
Chasing sea beams in the darkness
Scale mail armor throwing light
Trading breath and sweat and should-haves
We sank into endless night
Ten or twenty thousand fathoms
Down and down and downer still
We learned hipshot navigation
We learned how to love
And kill
I can take the pressure, babe
The effort, though, is showing
Try to save what strength you have left
For we may end up rowing
Take it up to periscope depth
So we can see where we’re going
I can take the pressure, babe
But I can’t handle not knowing
