Abandoned Prayer
By Sean Mc Shane
. . . and
to the
Celtic gods of a new leaf modern myth
who still listen
grant me the belief
in reverse
with anything, under your dying Sun
. . . where to go
Nowhere
I am
a
Shadowman
come out with more
. . . take me now
thru your black glass
a nightmare movement
such lavish barriers
It was given !!
It was granted !!
god-fuckin'-dammit !!
. . . judge me and move on
remember
the fragility of life
poisons your rising flames
. . . the waste of what could have
been
lies to be told
the
rot of regret
roll in
as
They all wander
when They hear
and
follow the cardboard maps
to what I've seen
. . . the bleeding ruins of my beautiful creations
whiskey and wisdom
great mistakes in a graveyard hour
. . . did you really think
there were wishes in that well
and
I love you
whatever
you are
and one abandoned evening . . .
you'll know
this now . . .
and the stars in your flashing eyes . . .
and
whispers from my book . . .
