The Lizard Mind (Part IV): GDTRFB

By cadymae


The Lizard-Mind rides shotgun as I step on the gas
Feel the engine surge through the gears gathering up power

The Lizard-Mind breathes out a long A-h-h-h-h-h-h-h
Mouth agape at the top of the windshield

Driving towards pasts dark with survival stains

He raggedly draws in air to vomit out his laughter again
Throws it at the world
                                          ALIVE
                                                       with life - adrenaline - p o w e r

The unthinkable is already completed.

I can see you. I am your other?

No. You ride me because I LIVE.
I awakened under you and now charge us both down the road

Engine screaming
dim world blurs by
and we both laugh
in the semi-dark
of the interior world
we both are awake
to share tonight.
