Member-only story
I

Sometimes I just gotta go…
Through filmic eyes I have only distain for the seventeen dwarves
witnessed before me,
I cannot hold a lit bonfire to the subterfuge that is every day life,
I vacate and the previous before me is no more…
I cannot hang around green screened minds.
Neither shall I dust off my wrought-mind and smile at their platitudes of post office rhetoric
I listen, I cannot help but listen but listen I must from afar…
A tree with a sniper rifle built, for you and me babe, you and me…
I’ve got to find a way to stop time and keep it embryonic.
Away from the crustaceated rivulets of gas that slap the earth
too often,
I find I am just plain wrong.
I gotta go and make life worthwhile somehow…
You’ll know you’ve just gotta go when
you
identify as yourself
and when and only
then
can you snatch a moment in time and watch as it becomes entirely
and wholly your own.
