you got ghosts in your blood you best get you some stony I got the fear on roll me one too I’m bound to get lucky I’m prepared to die trying you can fetch me solace from another man’s gutter because I’m headed home where there will be a welcome or a maybe just a lynching they might have forgotten I hope they’ve forgiven what’s done is done and I paid my dues
I don’t believe in resurrections or in tearful reconciliations the past is gone forever ghosts take shape in its shade and my head is haunted with that fearful geometry and the friends undone by time and tide you take your best shot and maybe another you might win some but you’ll likely lose more no-one passes this way unless they pay the toll
excellent narration john, as if a subconscious abstract...
ReplyDeleteI haven't slept for some time - the dreaming state starts to merge with the conscious mind. Words are just rolling in like snowflakes in a storm. Thank you Praveen - much appreciated.
