Restuto Pathos

I surf the dilation of time
And ride the back of reality
Music is my muse
And vinyl just gets me in the groove
I walk downstairs
Past the gate of infinity
And push ahead into cosmic unknowns

Strings may bind me to the past
But I venture ever forward
Fate may try to keep me down
But the only way to see the stars is to look up
Desolation breeds creation
So I give birth to the desert of the mind
Cacti flowers look lovely
And taste true to form
Reaching out while looking in
Breathing in and feeling cast out
English ties the tongue to time

Caffeinated like a Cobra Mustang
Just rolled out of the factory bed
I tear a scream into the world
Just to test if I still live
Muscle and mayhem
Stressed steel and metallic paint
The apex of human limits beckons
Blasting off from the line
I can hear demons squealing
For the mercy of their children
And so
I begin to glide into the golden age of knowledge

I bring the fright of dynamite
And the light of spring dawn
Do you look at me as a rose?
I rise from ocean depths
Pressure pounding my worried skull
Kings would make fools of us all
But the people answer times rapping of the door
It’s time to let in lavender wafts
And breathe the honeyed air
Be more than the sum of your yearning
Explode disappointment with a calculated rage
And excel at being better than before
Control your stars
Like a celestial captain of gravity
Let no man
Own your heart
And beat back your bruises
To give the smile of a champion
Back to the world that shook you to your soul
Today is a great day
For today is yesterday’s tomorrow
Where dreams are born
