iMessages
Whispers in the park Voices in the dark
How many thoughts are our own
To be free of THE MESSAGE ZONE
To go past the muddled hum
To hear your kiss I no longer can
The desert the oceans the arctic the bordellos
Messages are criss-crossing constantly constipated
SCREAM INTO MY EAR
Tell me you are not another voice being beamed out of New York City, Bundelberg, Salvador, Beijing, Sarajevo, Farmville, Reno, Paris, Adelaide, Minsk, Hilo…
SCREAM INTO MY MIND
A message as clear as the cleared rain forests
Then I will know
I am past THEIR MESSAGE ZONE
And the kiss in my dream is yours
