Charles Manson killed me tonight(Arnold Melleby, 12.13.2018)

a devoid of matter
a lack of solitude

a barb wire
hiding the holocaust
and dustfall of angels
that cloud your mind

I saw an image in a mirror
across the room
full of desire
but begging
to be left alone

a fool seldom travels alone
a fool seldom travels at all
better hang out
and gather what it takes
to make it on through

any way
any whore
Charles Manson killed me tonight

a devoid of matter
a lack of solitude

a barb wire
hiding the holocaust
and dustfall of angels
that cloud your mind

come, gather what`s around
and show us all 
what you have found
and most of all
let it all hang out

your ship ran aground
and you were nowhere to be found
somehow your ghost 
dragged you up on the Beach
on safe ground 

the big cats of the night
dragged you to my doorstep
proud and victorious of their prey
hawling to a yawning full moon
that has seen it all before

I heard the knocks
and opened my door

and saw an image in a mirror
across the room
full of desire
but begging 
to be left alone

leading me to a conclusion 
away from the delusion 
into the haluzination
and prozac nation
that see and meet my needs

any way
any whore
Charles Manson killed me tonight

any way
any whore
Charles Manson killed me tonight
