raptured thoughts accost me mostly
obscuring thoughts
of this and that
these raptured thoughts
undulate like a surging surf
dredging up mangled corpses
of love wronged
in dribbled forget-me-nots
I no longer stand on solid ground
I've been transformed
into vaporous mists
it is within the quietness
of grief and hilarity
in this world without the heavens
everything has changed
in my world
except I still hold onto myself
for I still can

Hang on good and tight my friend! A slippery grip on one's self is a scary thing, speaking from experience.

Your thoughts are truly spinning...yeah, hang on till the carousel stops or you grab the ring

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.
