The grail, the game, the cowboy. Boots inside a repentant prayer Appealing to the benevolent Seem of gold. The withdrawal of mercy.
The gaoler has stolen my my name And teaches the rats to Gnaw at my feet in the night They feed on the kernel of hope Hidden in my internal vibrating engine
The dogs howl in my periphery Their fangs pursue my dreams Into the sea of bones and dust Where time yields To the fierce and deadly Gaze of gravity
