BANISHING DARKNESS


circling the paint
hoping the colors
wishing the light
forgetting the falls
riding the radio wave
laughing up the circuitry
spinning the electrons
balling the jack
trucking the main line
hauling ass and ashes
banishing the darkness
wading in light
swimming in air
tumbling in waters
skying the feel
painting the walls and doors
making them so obvious they disappear
