Total Eclipse of The Earth

The language can’t hide your words lack of worth
holding no perspective
like an eclipse of the earth.
It’s only your shadow on the ground
that you never find your way around.
So introspective
but it’s all been played out.
So many things to speak about
but all you ever do is shout.
Sing, sing the rage
like Achilles in a cage.
There’s no solution
to your anger and confusion
so just continue to delay.
Until they find out you’ve got nothing to say.
The sweet smokey spell you’re under
holds you in this dark penumbra.
The light and the heavy and darkness between
will blot out the stars in the sky and your dreams.
So when again will we meet?
Under cloud or moon or out on the street?
Well you know that when it finally goes south
your ambition will have vaulted over your mouth.
Somewhere somebody has made you a crown
but the commoners kicked it all over town
I found and it wiped off the sticky and slime
Is it okay if I make this thing mine?

Hmmm, I could say the very same thing about you too, A.M. Here goes; you are/were/is a very intersting people and I look forward to browsing around your blog some more after I trudge through the spring seattle snow to my badger-hole.
