I claim it

i speak it out

shouting declarations into the dark

of my reality burning down

they surround me with torches 

the smoke of their words

burning holes into the dust of me

.

ive looked 

and ive tasted

and ive seen

.

ive bent over and observed

tiny minute details

that escape everyday traffic

.

little leaves sprouting off the edges of other leaves

little flowers inside other flowers

stamens and pistols that defy reason

fancy free little details

.

feathers

.

flying

.

mysteries encapsulating other mysteries

my mind creating possibilities that dont exist

formed by my dreams

fool

.

the fool stares me straight in the eye

calls me a liar to my face

.

i question

have you tasted?

have you seen?

have you heard or felt?

Don’t tell me then

that the colors ive seen dont exist

.

now

open their eyes.

let the taste fill their mouth.

open their ears.

let them feel until they feel nothing else.

.

overwhelm them

.

is this their dream?

or is this what they dread?

.

Avatar reality

.

Dropping into a dream that is more real than reality

despised reality

embraced dream

.

we were born for the dream

spoken into nothingness

the dream

.

broken at the indulgence

.

i hear a voice,

and it calls to parts of me that i didnt know existed

i hear a voice,

and i blink awake.

i am dust come alive.

.

unlearned ignorance

fills them up

they have become corrupt

devouring what they ought not.

.

the juice stains their mouth

i see it when they laugh

death

.

they are frustrators

unrefuged

molestors.

.

the plans of the Lord are sure

spoken out a million miles behind where i now stand

Still sustained by that single breathed syllable

their name called out into the void.

.

i stand

i stretch out into the sunlight

salvation comes forth

to greet me where i stand.

claimed

i am claimed

restored

rejoicing

.

be glad!
