Idolise The Watcher
All Words By : Stewart Alexander
ò Copyrighted 2015

 

 

Winter is a fashionable excuse for insanity

I use it in the summer too

My light retires to a good new home

After dragging the dragon and his blood in the dew

 

Even seasick men have their say 

Albeit superfluous and stark

Let the poisons lace my empty glass

But this time thankfully it's lost in the dark

 

Snakes laugh as they go unnoticed in the belfry

Lions tear apart a refugee

Crumbled bridges are seen below our flight

Trying to reach the floor of the free

 

 Universal notes are in a refrain of stale Champagne

Deleted dreams heal our cuts

We tend to ignore what we should listen to the most

The words that slice open our guts

 

You see the end is not nigh or close

Folded light is hiding with the ghost

Of all that's come and gone and will do

From the sand the sea the coast

 

I love the rain in her cascaded veil she soothes

Goodbye seems easier in a storm

But silver reflects a different scene

For those dying dead or freshly born

 

Idolise the watcher for he sees himself best

Never treated to isolation or haste

We can skin any bone and ignore the screams

For all we want is a different taste

Hi Stewart your a font of dramatic wonder- your words are lyrical-off putting, deep, profound-under the skin and skin deep- keeping us at a distance and drawing us in- to the magic and mystery of -the written word!...Thank you for sharing!...regards Mike
