Mechanical cyber erotic visionaries
speaking in unknown tongues
come to me in paranoia induced dream

Playing tricks on my feeble mind
hot metal burns the flesh
making me see a god
inside my mental prison

Craving sensuality from inanimate
icons of reality past
which call to me lustfully
turning my tainted soul
inside out

I wish I could sleep again
without the demons
crawling out from
under my skin
as I pop my pills
and pray to a saviour
I forgot in Sunday School
rhetoric

Laying my head to mortal sleep
on satin sheets
next to some
sexual fix
think of the meaning of life
before falling to sleep
in mental vomit.

(sigh) Yep, in times like these you just have to go outside on your patio, for nature is far more erotic yet innocent all the same! (big hugggsssssss) Find the arrow always in the organic beauties, sweet friend, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Brad, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

I read this one this morning and couldn't reply (darn work) then.  So here I am...

This write is powerful with it's meaning.  Once again you write like no other.  Loved it.
