As i open the portal between
one dimension ...and the next
In memory recall, beast that I am
Processing all memory banks
Turn on/off sensory recall making withdrawals
When due to balance our accounts
Doublecheck emotional give and take
To see where your digits meet mine
Testing my inputs to the supposed limits
Of our shared space and time
You were in b*tch mode
Tired of carrying more than twice
Your share of the load …
while I hovered about,
carefree ...meditative
As if oblivious to the new low
And the companion cold wave
which approached
As if demanding full attention
And the background noise of bills due
Merged and collided… you got excited,
Cast words like lightning bolts
Getting personal beyond the degree
i could retain
Made me feel like i was fighting clouds
but then came fire and rain
With no umbrella…
So i went ghost spirit wings spread
Made rapid pace wingbeats in staccato rhythms
To climb somewhere above the impending storm
I sensed, coming from somewhere vast, deep...
As i fled hurriedly, at this moment
anywhere else Was preferred.
Your words, changed instantaneously
from warning to full attack
Went from hey, baby
to In my face-personal
All sense of calm suddenly erased
As old wounds cracked open You sent
Precise targeted blows with surgical precision
Cut quick my false pride, then went deep
Followed immediately by blows
BAM! …black eye
BOOM! …bloody nose
My customary retreat abruptly cut off
So I tried to find a place in the sun
To enter a calm state to quell my beast
As angry words shunted a rising
Call for stage two violence emerged
From its sheath like a hard pr*ck
a sword which once called Demanded blood
…or sex! Double-quick
Neither on the menu… Now!
So, I used a special power reserve
Before an unrelenting warrant got served
Inverting Time/making space curve…
Countered the after-effects
Hello! It's me…
give me another chance
To get an instant replay
Pay for my mistakes… and tip you
For the privilege of being served by you
And if there’s room in your heart
Please allow me to stay …here
Where i believe i belong
As your forever man
