(Hi everyone! I've missed y'all too much, but now that we've entered a new decade, I'm determined to live more fiercely and fearlessly than ever before, and so am ready to ignite some poetic pyrotechnics, yay! (does happy conscious conga) )

  

Rapture
By: Noah Eaton
1/1/10

Ballistics from the mystic,
bluster from your breath,
inviolably ultraviolet,
your static treads,
you have me incinerate so I live,
learning of my death before my death...

Guide me through your game of mirrors,
flaring thunderworm,
seize the lapels of my leaking heart,
discern the burn,
transform this halestorm,
into an art form deities can’t affirm...

Rapture!
Rapture!
We endure,
we make pure,
unfolding to rapture!

(HEY!!!)

No journey takes us far,
unless it goes equally within,
searching with wind-swept wanderlust,
on afterglow autopilot,
dreaming into form,
all that’s rising up in our invocation...

Rapture!
Rapture!
We endure,
we make pure,
unfolding to rapture!

(DARE TO BE REBORN!!!)

Rapture!
(We begin again as we burn!)
Rapture!
(We begin again as we burn!)
We endure,
we make pure,
unfolding to rapture!


"If we have no peace, it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other"

..wisdom comes from the better choices of stupidity..
..curiosity is above all the best teacher..
