In my yesteryears
this was my holiday
a carnival and explosions
on the ground
and in the sky
late nights
and experimental
adolescence
and the last year
change
we become estranged
in a graveyard were
we once wathed fire work
and we are all so distant
and alien
to oursleves and everything
the crows sing in the oak trees
and we are drunk off alcohol
instead of fireworks
the paths sing like promise
in or protests
each individual
planting hydroponic roots
in Rastafarian dreams
and Bodhisattva manfestations
ad we are pawns unto our selves
selling short
the promise
of a sophisicated sundicate
all the best thinkers
are lost on head stones
and in books
being interpreted
by twenty first century
philistine pseudo intellects
mutter words unintelligible
be unforgetable
in every way
like getting
socked in the face
at car crash speeds
the pallet of colors
amidst brilliant mistakes
and I take all this with me
like a raffle tickett
that I never confirmed
the results of
but I might have been
the grand prize winner.
