Love song to the now
I am chaos
I am destruction
I am the whirlwind
the firestorm that sweeps aside all order
rips the woven thread
cracks the stone and turns the sea to vapour
I am the eye of the storm
the print in the crusted salt
I am the delight,
the glee,
the smile painted with savage joy
I am the airborne fibre embedded in your lung.
I am the needle in the vein
the chemical ridden brain
I am the touch
the scratch
the bite
the burn
I am the fire engulfing memories
and blistering the skin
I am born and die every second
and every sub second.
I am the void
the pit
the trap
I am the fear
the hate
the jealous snake that eats it's own tail
and loves the meal
I am the father's blood pooling on the stone floor
The hand that grips
slips
snaps and
breaks.
I am the beast
the jaw
the teeth
the dove
Give me love
I am the thimble
the symbol
the succour of a mother's breast
the rasping of a painful breath
I am the fiction that the truth contains
I am the pain
I am the triumph of an easy victory.
I am the love song
I am the beat
I am the sound of running feet.
