    ...time to revive this thread...

    You can’t buy ball-lightning
    or authenticate an astral plane
    without turning off the light
    and taking two of these
    and dropping down
    dark rabbit hole.

    Don’t be Alice, though.
    Naivety kills extreme dreamers
    once childhood’s overtopped
    and the climatic birthdays stop.

    Then the dreams are buried
    beneath alcoholic rocks.

    Besides,
    you’re magnetic
    when grounded by gravity,
    your sophisticated philosophies
    magnify the time effected
    within our congruity.

    The serpentine pragmatist
    with spirited, childish quirks
    is the apogee of our living arc.

    Hold tight to that apex
    and ride that height
    with all your heart.

    Time doesn’t stop when lightning strikes
    despite what the latest theory spouts.
    Out here, relativity rides shotgun
    to tornado wielding thunderstorms
    hurtling over the horizon
    in hurried, anarchic advance.

    I feast on nitrogen and salivate
    whenever static electricity builds.
    I hold a lightning rod heavenward
    and hope I’m grounded well.

    There might be a paradise
    just over that cumulus crest
    where a catalog is kept,
    archiving departure points,
    date and time and decision;
    but it won’t determine destiny
    through historical algebra.

    Try me on justification again
    and I’ll still call bullshit.

    Predestination has been tested.
    It’s fatal.

    static traffic in stasis stays static,
    it’s tragic, staying static, drastic traffic.
    in fact if magic tactics swayed traffic,
    traffic wouldn’t be havoc in stasis,
    the spacious spaces in traffic
    with magic traffic static
    would make me ecstatic,
    would be fantastic.
    No more drastic,
    elastic traffic.

    You better stabilize.
    We grow through repetition
    and gather mundane memories
    and face Monday mornings constantly.
    We fill space in a removed embrace,
    drifting miles away from the live feed

    into a computers hum in a cubicle crypt
    into perfect temp pumped thru a/c vent
    into primary plans eight hours away
    for five straight days,

    turning dreams
    into futile things
    best repressed.

    welcome to the real world;
    that worn-out cliché
    so tough to stomach.

    *edit: forgot to add that this was inspired by some lyrics Johnnybang had written
