NOT IN A RHYTHMIC CHIME- BUT WRITTEN WHERE VEIN DRINKS VINE

2076 KEEPS STEALING MY PAST
ive laid upon this borrowed altar so many counted years
but this knife cast in a shadows trusted thrust
hangs like so many lovers asked
beneath the skin a surface defaced
lives so many words correctly misplaced
across this orange dawn
only i see beauty born

when haunted history creeps against memory skin
too afraid to smash the cowards mirror scene
fainted walls of light dancing ice
and scratched drink orders turn you insane
no rescue rides and you fail

in drunkards voice i pledge a calmĀ 
across this my prison womb
just the vision a painted little thing
misted kiss given and pity hung
love has darkened as the breath fades

as i sleep tonight i ask
that this time becomes the past
