Robberies in night's stand still
Shattered windows
Broken dreams
On the lone highway
Within a bottle

Peyote dances
Tweleve nights
In the crucified deserts
On sedimentary sands
Around the fire circle
In a cave
In a lost river bed

Out in the wilderness
Into the unknown
Nothing is certain
Within the urban labrythn

Street hustlers
And corner cunt workers
-Feather hat lords
Running on crystal hills
From emerald diamond dancers
Street phantoms

The tear drop rapist is found
In the depth of the city
And neighborhoods are shaken
By trainwreck earthquakes

Out there
Where the trees erect
From underground realms of secrecy
Like ancient hiroglific monuments
Lies a grand enterprise

The magazine article
A derivative of life
An abstraction of death

And where the water
Meets the sand
And washes ashore
From far away lands
Life is created
Father water releases
Children
From the seas treachery
And emotions
Are bourne
California
The one which I adore

And corner cunt workers<------"I cant believe you got away with this line."
