Return to Memory Lane
By Sean Mc Shane
I started off on Memory Lane
supposed to be a Last Run
I
felt Untitled, as I Embraced This World
I wasn't Willing To
Follow
just Spitting Mind Matter
about The Good Ole Days
when
you realize
You're Not Supposed To Be Here
and My Better
Half, a Wet Nightmare
took me to the House of Dreams
where there
is no Rest for the Wicked
just Words Forsaken
Within a Sacred
Somewhere
my Badass Blues
told me We Were Right
though
I was Gone For Good
back in the Tarantula Gardens
where a Circus
of Mayhem
laid down the Chemical Gauntlet
Moonshine for
a Wasteland Pariah
Summer came, bringing Memory and Foresight
like
Weaving Titles at a Black Water Baptism
and my Last Dream
led me to a Charge of Desperation
showing me another Mutiny in Heaven
I violated the Star Maiden
in Interrogation Room #2
as
a Shooting Star, twice
then I thought of Michelle
during a Couch
Nap
like a Shooting Star twice more
( deep breath )
my Queen Card Death Trick
told me of Forever Promises
a
Challenge,
for Me Hendrix Gloria and You
all the way to
Midnight's End
where we found No Such Paradise
only an Invisible
Flare
that showed the Truth of the Night
a Strain of Thought,
for Next Time
just pass by the Black Door
to a HoneyGlide
picnic
that was never Horribly Beautiful
a Babydoll in
Blue
altered my Destiny's End
and a Wake Up Call
to
Dev
from a Psychocidal Soul
and when in Forever's Blue Light
there's no Burn in Concern
then my Old School shit
left a
Burning Coffee Table
as it went Back in the Shadow Again
leaving
ahead misunderstood Thresholds
a Sunday Cervix turned to Star
Drama
and while Kissin' Paradise
I found your Magic Word
in the Bliss of You
but that Graveyard Train came
hauling
an Abandoned Prayer
spoken thru an Open Mic
and 2 Of 7
was an Ode to Joy
after you Kill Your Darlings
with my Killing
Rage
which helped with Road Wrath
and when it's Too Dark
to Sleep
I Return to Memory Lane . . .

Welcome back, you have been greatly missed, and reprising many of your old titles was quite an inspiration. We all live on the same roller coaster, just in different cars, thanks Sean!
