How do i get through to you?
erica hutchinson 1989 (sc)
Exquisite
smooth
real
soft
bleeding for undirected perfection
suffocating in rapid scriptures
dying thru pages and a pen
why?
is it a nickel of love, dined with a bottle of wine?
empty
naked
ashamed
yet driven
no mask for pure desire of a fantasy of sweet perfection
god
yearn for a higher power
depth in many angles
desired
element of hours
turquoise
pink robe
shower
death
man only one real word
a true power
hurst and lemon truth
evolutions escaping
to one man
i do
a severe reality that our purpose
embodied in power
everything else is death
compass
failed days
purpose
love beyond scale
and hate; clashing thru a yell as if im in hell
only the hate i keep inside
brutal
abuse
why?
disappointment relished into lust
unfolds
trust
lies
disguise
gold
bronze
heavy metal
destruction
ahhh yes
drive
sweet light
unvailing
dust.
