Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

now we stand lost with our head in the clouds going nowhere fast and going down without knowing how thought we knew who we were it turned out we do but there's so much more it seems also we're in need of towels everywhere there is to see nothing has come unto me standing alone tall inside a camel's eye with glass shard mysteries never knew which way to go but now it seems that's already been taken care of reach out for instant salvation but the man sinks in an ocean of tears thought we knew who we were yet we did just not really every time I turn to see there is nothing that I haven't seen before yet somehow its all new and somehow its worthy of death the only thing I know for sure is I've been here before and yet somehow somewhere there is a place that counterbalances this thought we were going there and why aren't we there now how come we knew ourselves bet yet not as fully as to see us naked always always covering ourselves hiding ourselves not wanting to drop the illusion yet now here we are standing lost in the middle of a rainbow nowhere to turn too nowhere to run we've only a place in the shadow of the sun how do we really know we've got things correct and in order confusion sets in and sinks us into a corpus sinew of spydery floss everything we stood for and everything we fought has turned against look what it has bought thought we knew what we were doing did we know anything at all my God look at us all standing swaying in the winds of time looking for all cost's sake like a ramble shack dime and I know as I go down I've lost it all we are going to be bound so now look at me don't forget because now we stand lostWritten October 26th, 2001 © on Oct 26 2001 03:29 PM PST, Michael Edward London    abuse
