HARMONY?

BEAT BATTLE 21 05

alliwanted

patient is the night

the wind runs slick I feel it sanding off rough edges
Turning me perfect and deaf and blind

If I could stomach the numbness
I'd fall in love with the silence
But as it turns my ego yearns for something painful

In the dark of the vacuum, I grasp out
Lost in the aether of language
Meeting at intent oceans apart
Separated by incessant sharks
Infestations and expectations
I have sea legs
This is outstretched flatness, a gaping madness to draw us in

I’ll drive until I cant grip any longer
Until my hands cant be unstuck and my calves atrophy to nothing
And I tip over
I want to hear the boom and feel the blood drip to my jaw and let whiteness take me in

Night windshield bugs that bright light shoos out of sight like my eye still dyed
with blotted trace of haunted life deep in iris ammonite
strewn on the floor like pyrite
If I were to explode into pieces a billion pieces
would my shape stain the sediment as the storm flings me out

To die in unlimited friction?
Sliding all about the charcoal stains that chase me alive
Like a scent for hounds to trail and
Zero in on each papercut that betrays you
till all irons abandoned me and I paint every flower with what I have left
think there's something in the clouds, their million eyes
Wait, I'm not sure where I am right now

with dark descending I can barely make the earth out
If I died and ended up somewhere else on a dried up lonely moon
Shake my flesh and eternal kingdom, revoke my name and phylum
Cut off my tongue, turn to chrome
Oh, bright and shiny chrome

And drive unlimited nitro
Holding down till the smog hides all the trails I leave behind
I don't wanna be found, I just wanna get gone
Keeping going till the road itself forgets which way I'm from
To hide in anonymous ghost towns
Whose names have been lost with the railroads
lie with the bones and the coal
expire in the headlight glow

A coldness has caught me
A chill I cant shake
It is clanging in the back in an emptying blood bank
A dizzying height to sink
