Wisdom Is For The Birds

The parakeet gazed longingly out the open window from...

Room 1135

Day 1 To whom it may concern: That...

What goes on in the suburban streets

Smoke slips into the bloodstream
Schizophrenia blows me a kiss
Surreal laughing, falling over
A broken record skipping ad infinitum
the world's different yet again

 

my legs useless to me here and now
fused and confused with concrete
sliding in and out of the gateway
of missing dimensions and twisting
scratchy and unreliable five senses

 

behind me gleaming galaxies beckon
but I can't fall through the floor
much to my slightly amused suprise
supernova nightlights at the edges
of my slowly disintegrating vision

 

But no more and it wears off quickly
still disconnected from my inner self
gliding then stifling an odd laugh
who am I, will I ever feel real again
only the doors of perception know now

That is an awesome poem man. I really dig this, and strange as it may seem I feel I know the sensation of missing dimensions

if not read slow a person can easily get lost. but someone who has experienced a drug induced psychosis, namely myself, can understand the narrative. smoke in the bloodstream? maybe thc, but not smoke.
