~ HOLES IN THE MACHINE ~

~ HOLES IN THE MACHINE ~

In psychotic pools, holes of words drowned
In dampened spirits and thoughts left unspoken
A single ray of light, shines
Through chiseled holes of hallucination
As apparitions and as holes in the machine, translucent
That move, within spinning grooves
GreasedΒ with the stuff of life
Like light that morphs, into the arena
Into the dualistic holes where darkness shifts
And steely cogs, join holes in the machine
Pumping and grinding out clouds of steam
That groan through bubbles above
Through seismic evolution
Heaving their way to the light and the dark
Of holes in the lungs
Of cancerous thoughts
Spewed out as poetry
And left to the few
To comprehend
To interpret
To present
As their own,
Original,
Holes in the machine....

Thanx TERRY!!..... we both feel the same about you....... so glad you liked this..... but...... you don't have a 'pea brain' ....I simply wrote this as an experimental tribute to the style of lyrics that Roger Waters used in his 'Pink Floyd' lyric lines!!.....NOT so easy to decipher!!..... smiles....... Lots of love to you and yours!!.......T xo ?✴?

Now I wouldn't have picked on that,Β  I wasn't a Pink Floyd fan. If it had been Jimi Hendrix,Β  Led Zeppelin or Motown I may have had a chance...Β  I can see a relection of Pink Floyd now though.Β  I'm just teasing about my pea brain..... although honestly l"m sure it wouldn't take much effort for you to intimidate me. Enjoy the rest of Sunday. I have a b day poem I'm going to post.Β  You and Cherie...Happy Birthday..Terry Kay
