Electra I'm infected virii passed thru brief contact a sea creature staked under steel desert sky a feeling not unlike the swift Mako's kiss - sudden, then lingering You travel in packs, yet oddly solitary a credit to your insane race unforgettable like the first taste of chocolate melting on ravished lips I wanted you and now I simply struggle to forget the lie I've forged of you a statue rising, piercing sky a monument to false memory a sucker's Las Vegas fantasy A blue movie starring Nico, and myself then awake, suddenly, burning of you dreams of the cool depths forgotten in the fevered real before I'm plunged again I wonder if I would be worthy to consort with angels ...or swim with sharks live the fantasy ...or be trapped in the waking dream should I throw away grace prostrate myself to my idea of you or linger unknowing, my fate to want I wish you resembled something more human but then again, this less than ideal I would not want to be one with you girl of the ricochet stare blistered buckskin maniacal laugh a punishing kind of love what I have is of no use to you what gifts I bring fail to move you worthy only of your pity I grasp at what is mine cut loose the rest trying only to forget the swinging doors of paradise
