A Gray Vision (with Evangeline)

By Gray Vision

Skipping and tripping over words and phrases
a smack on the brow to show me how
Come on, Big Daddy, lead the way
Spell it out for me, I'm riding your coattails today...
I'll take you on a journey, to a place far, far away,
Among the outstretched luminous bands, across the heavens
To the one and only Milky Way...
Zoom, zoom, zoom, zipping right along
Sailing over astral planes through time and space
laughing at the man in the moon's silly face
As he drifts away into a sea of dreams
And the sun slowly rears its head
Beyond the vast mountains and streams...
She lets the wind catch her hair
On this journey to nowhere
Flying through this galaxy of imagination
Paying no mind to the laws of gravitation
Here, she's at her happiest
No regrets, no worries,
Drifting through this mysterious place
That knows no boundaries...
He takes her on a fantastical voyage
hitchin' that beam of light
she drifts on his grandiose jet stream
night after wondrous night
She knows not to grow attached
Been hurt once too many,
Savoring this rare occasion
Like that of milk and honey
She knows no love, safe for the night
only in scheme and technicolor, does she feel right
with a broken halo and melting wings
skipping alongside him, she sings
of light and dark, and white noise
she plays with the minds of men like toys
she breathes ambient and pain
and carries sludge and acid rain
he cuckolds her with moonbeams and astral rings
and she delights in the many gifts he always brings.

    I agree Foster, how cool would it be for you to do a painting of some sort and have someone write something pertaining to it, that could be a form of collaboration to hu. Sounds like something I'll have to try some time and seeming that you do paint, maybe we can work on one. Alrighty then you take care of yourself in the mean time and thank you for commenting =)

    An awesome collaboration, a very dream like quality to this piece, the beginning gave me a feeling of flight, free from the constraints of reality, incredible work from the both of you. Scholar
