Unroll the world

Unroll the world

It goes on forever
Like a hallway to heaven
Lying in the cabbage patch
Legs spread wide open
As the sea is deep
Trapped in a shallow line
Flay the living hide
Down on the alter
Taking on the holy ghost
And all comers
Both holy and profane
Digging for the other side
Praying for the spark
That ignites the groove
Cal you feel me?
I am alive
I am brave enough
To be me
To be free
Sitting on my lap
With the consciousness of Buddha
Not disturbed by the twilight
The growing darkness
A emptiness that swallows it all
The honeymoon of flesh
Her feet no touching the ground
Sometimes in the twinkling
A corpse piled up
One after another
Over and over again
Choose not to look away
Embrace the circle
The hole and the dirt
Both are love and peace
Pry it open
Make a path
Build your fire on the hilltop
Cry for the birth
Rage for the dying stars
The light that was never born
Nothing left but stench
The world falling apart
On the shadow of memory
We all hang from the wire
Demanding resolution
But, the hangman never comes
Never brings the hope
A reaper and binder
The flush of dawn
And the zeal of industry
There is no more
Nothing left to burn
Where are my matches?
