Compost

By Doomy_One

Shakespearean tragedy echoes
as the heaviest drumbeats in old soul songs
Juju eyeballs and holy rollers
Silver saxophones
All of history colliding into the singularity

Bass chords drive him onward
Inward
Westward

He wanders the irrecoverable wasteland
of his bombed out railroad bridges.
Moving on is not amnesia.

White-striped Zeppelins birthing Steppenwolves
A new chariot attracting a new benefactor
Cyberpunk medieval vaudeville

He flows with it
Resisting resistance
As the levees break,
the canoes venture on...
