Introduction

Stand amazed
blank alter
no lost father
spit ink to it
watch the ricochet blot black
in the skull casket

candle glows in the wind
against teeth that came from polar caps
candle glows in the rain consuming water mark
had to jump start heart
free me formula
premium  combination
supreme cliental destination
those pigment stains aint stolen
second birth blood brother

return ink in my brain through the vein
authorized  authoritis
my hand won't let go
of that pen blood
stone river
permeant flowing word
free me
die just to lie between
the line
wake me when I'm read
fluid mortar forever
carry me in grey winkles

I could see this as a rap song...I was singing it as I read it.

This one reminds me of something I once spoke in my sleep. Actually recorded it but havent transcribed anything yet. I rermember most of it involved a pen with no ink and filling it with my own blood.
I like the rhythem of the words in this poem.

...If you choose not to decide you still have made a choice.

Authorized arthritis...

a heady line.

Wanted, not needed, respected, implored.

Yet, the pain.

Excellent!
