Noplace
  I will fall awake
  Complete silence gapes
  At my existence, I will go
  To a noplace
  Where color fades
  Where I loathe everything
  (Well, really not if everything is
  The miracle of our existence and
  Humanity’s faith,
  The aisles of Goodwill
  Where my mother laughed,
  And I read books about afterwards.
  And if everything includes
  The color of  the word
  love.)
  Make my mind blank
  Wipe my spirit clean
  Try to see the light waves lengthen
  From radio hills to flat heart monitor
  Silence sounds like
  Someone writing
  
  The smell of stagnant air
  (When did I dress up with wings
  And horns and laughed
  Belly ached-time stopped-living living
  COLOR and then the game went on
  My life has been sound and sight and
  Kicking and ROARING how
  Did I paint this space of)
  Noplace tastes like copper keys
  Will I asleep,
  And fall awake?
