Dopamine clouds,
soft, silicon dreams.
Reaching in,
pulling out
the tight little seams.
Distracted each time
by delightfully easy,
interactive
drop down screens.
I’m reaching in deep,
trying to grab hold
of the heart of being.
Disconnect the feed
with my dominance smile
and my violent words.
I’m going to conquer the world,
just to impress a girl.
Ha-Ha-Ha!
No, of course I’m not,
but what I will do;
is keep reaching in deeper,
until I’m touching you, too.
Then I’ll pull out your inside,
bring it out into view,
so the whole world can see
your beautiful truth.
I’m in real deep, now
what will I bring out?
Something wonderfully tragic?
Some new hill to surmount?
An idea that calls you
to stand your ground?
A weapon to harm you?
Something to bring you down?
Piercing the veil
is far from predictable.
I’ll never know what’s next,
what direction I will go.
Caught up in
emotions push and pull.
Smiling while I
writhe in the possible.
There’s something
inside everything.
There’s something
behind everything.
There’s something
hiding inside
everyone.
Just want to
bring it out
into the light.
