Close Your Eyes And Hum

Close those eyes

Don’t look away

On the borderline of personality

Love it

Hate it

Melt into the blackness

Behind the streetlights

Close those eyes

See through association

As traffic lights pass

Manipulate control of the world

Turn it over in your hand

Break it at your whim

Close those eyes

Unrepressed vision

Hostile sound waves

Thick and black

Oppressively smothering

Anger passing quickly

Can you hear it?

Coherent, hard, uncertain, blocked

Close those eyes

Can you see it?
