VooDoo
by truthtramp
walking through walls is like
falling through cracks
or dancing on water
a delicate balance of
there’s a thousand colours
under the slate grey
overhang
there’s a thousand colours
suspended
under
the paint chips
crumbling
roof tops
running in rivers
of
trash minced heat entwined humid stick of moldy stench
a mothers nature sprouted green grass
in fertile toxic waste
to compost a new land
swirling in greasy
rainbow puddles
under street lamps
vibe
tapping feet in time
on the pavement of
jazz nights
even plastic shines
glittering jesters
masqueraders
and the maddest of hatters
singing or dreaming
or are they whispering
as the mad marched on
enchanted
we slid in time with the night
took her by the hand
and
danced
with this madness
we made love to her
in public
shimmied or
pranced
then
leaped across chasms
of care nots
or fuck offs
while the band
breathed brass
and beat drums
to the sound of
in the end
..oh you know…
i’m the king of the swingers
ya’ll
the jungle VIP
i come and go
with a
puff of smoke
whenever
i damn well please
