RSVP of the turning -
Cat Heads, crowns of silver walk along beaches at low
tide. Security, golden arms of a pocket watch, hunting for
a spring. The putrescent, sweet mirage of youth will not
rest, for this is a magnetic mind; a breath from below
burning. A field, a sect, a melody that knows but one
conductor.

‘tis the roar of the engine room -
Turbine blood, turning all the time, join us in the engine
room; see you soon. Follow the high-test rocket souls, wild
cherry color, swinging in the sights of a heaven they were
told about, one they were in, but never knew. Too late
now, the roar of the engine room drowns out the sea.

If they could only go back. Oh! -
How they would change the way they lived, safe from joy,
when it was just around the corner. Meow.

I thought a cat heads poem would be funny, but this is very deep instead. That's even better.
