Bleeding into the ether

Bleeding into the ether

.

The right portal opens up,

Unexpectedly,

I can hear the world with both ears now, so clearly,

.

Tell me all the secrets of the world,

For I wish to bathe in the shadows and hang my stars- just, upon its skin,

.

The screen turns red as my ears bleed lead,

A metallic taste in my mouth,

I can hear the outlines and trace the waves as they enter into my throat,

.

The metal grates screech as they pulverize the internal ear, painting the interior scape all shades of red,

I think im bleeding from the inside,

I think all hearing is healing from the inside,

I think the angelic choir sounds like heathens form the inside,

.

The dirty gates leading out back from the inmates cell relies on the lies fed to the commissioner for a higher price,

I would’ve granted passage for a mediocre parlay,

A tiny game,

One of those-

.

My ear cavity is opening and something is coming,

Perhaps another reality,

Another time,

Another place,

I can hear the scratching now

The drumline insinuates another event altogether,

Marching along the side of the road less taken…
