We all need to be saved.
I am twirling on my tip toes
dancing like a puppet swinging
on strings.
The music runs through me electric like our coffees
like our cokes…
Fire me up, my blood.
Is it so shocking it burns
purple?

There was an accident with the Crystals.
I had an awful reaction to the
Lithium lace. Like Alice,
we all stumbled and rolled down the
rabbit hole.
No one tripped this time,
Our feet in the darkness,
They know the mind blowing path well enough
for us all.
~
Bodies cleared away/
One by one
So cold, the skin stood blanch
Against the midnight black…
Shiny… Plastic.
I’m staring, thinking,
it’s hard to believe
no one ever thought of changing the color to something less
… Gruesome?

Phew, this piece was crazy! I literally felt like Alice falling down the rabbit hole and then wondering, wtf? The last stanza stood out the most to me though, and made me think. You know, that is a good question you pose at the end. I wish more people would read this, it is wonderful. Excellent write and thank you for sharing!
