[DEEPLY ALONE]
THE MUSIC FOR THIS DIRGE...
http://youtu.be/tLC2LhulglA
I in my loneliness reflect as the ebb and flow continues...
The hum of black tires on black asphalt as a black car passes through a black neighborhood on its way to a black house where a black family sits and prepares to eat dinner.
I a lonely man walk surrounded by queens, yet I remain single in the fortress of my solitude...
Looking at visions on the wall as they swirl in and out of focus... An eye, a nipple and a whisp of her scent as I drift a prisoner to her visage.
For who truly overstands the depths of my reflections... I birthed in the system Sirius and transplanted in the Milky Way.
Semen spurted into a womb and grown to man.
Cast into the land as a pariah and fated to roam educated among sleeping man.
I in my loneliness cry to Allah, cry to my ancestors to take away these things I know.
Make me like them.
It is cold out here in the space of overstanding as the vacuum swallows the sound of my pleas.
I shiver at the reality as it dawns clear across this planet I observe.
Breaks across the galaxy and spills its light across the universe as a pinpoint of light.
Twinkling in the sky of a far distant planet where they know that there is life out there.
Observe.
I in my loneliness seek the warmth of your embrace if only for a second...
I alone.
