Starz & Elephants

(for Fallon)

One drag is all it takes.
To take a stone and throw it at a wreckage
But all that comes after,
Long after
Long after that release
That intoxicating thrill of the ultimate juice,
A beautiful distortion
Mind and body uncoiled in a beautiful reverie
Then the weightlessness

Some bounce, some crack, some skunk
Followed by a helping of glass and glue
Then you can lay beneath the sky’s night
Amongst the magic mushrooms
The bliss that takes us to great heights
Before the fall

Spaced out.
Air punches the pit of your stomach as you fall from
The 9th storey
The train derails.
Black out.

Void.

Remember anything?
