Pummeling Apocalypses

A transitive resistance
Rubber-banding there and back again
With dangerous business
Put on back burners lit
Burning these eternities
Lungs filled with liquid
Breathing in a new unity
Pummeling apocalypses
A transgressive recurrence
Trying to build these transistors
Spiraling ever inward
Sending out messages
The arrogance cemented
Locating echoes of vengeance
Tearing a hole in the middle
Of every doubt that possesses
Rising out of the wreckage
With cheeks blushing bright red
Finally a chest without pressure
Spinning silk with silver tongues
The first hints of true treasure
A combination long awaited
Sending out vibrations permanent
A dance worth all the patience
Not waiting for the stars to fall
Plucking my own providence
Strings that cry no more
Finding a friend in harmonics
Search with me for melody
Lyrical and led by the hand
Anything but unsinkable
And with a heart left open
Beauties built and chosen
Lined up for the asking
Reflections left unbroken
And questions everlasting
Hopefully worth the answering
Swept up in prophetic portents
With dangerous business
Still sending out messages
Pummeling Apocalypses
