Touch my eyes

I find myself accelerating around corners

on the reckless edge of wanting

to feel

My mind has gone to seed - 

all cotton and dandelion fluff

Hand me the candle snuffer

Bleed my eyes

of all the lucid dreams

Twisting the arc

of time's arrow

into a dripping rainbow

Touch my eyes now - 

cover the burning land

or I will go where the rivers go

under the desert sand

Hold my hand.
