*Electric Violet Summertime

I WROTE ABOUT THE CITY

AND I WROTE ABOUT THE *EYES THAT PASSED

AND I WROTE ABOUT WHAT I THOUGHT I SAW

RIGHT HERE IN THE LOOKING GLASS

 

SNAPPLE CAPS BRING ALL THE WISDOM YOU SEEK

GIVING EVERYBODY SWEET CHEEK

AS YOU REDISCOVER MEMORIES FROM *YOUR SEAT

SEEING ALL THE BEGINNINGS COMPLETE

STARING AT THE SAME BAG FULL OF ITEMS MUNDANE

AND REMEMBERING *EPIPHANIES THRU MY WINDOW PAYNE

 

THE *DALAI LLAMA MAY JOIN YOU

WITH *MAGIC DUST FROM THE *SIGHT OF WORSHIP

THOSE *PAJAMAS LOOK GOOD ON YOU

SO WEAR THEM WITH PRIDE

AS YOU HELP BRING IN THE DAWN

OVER *TWO TWENTY TWO'S CONCRETE LAWN

 

FAMILIAR FACES AND GUESTS

ARE THE MARKINGS OF MY EIGHTEENTH AUGUST

DISCOVERING SOME SOLACE IN THE THRESHOLD

I FIND MYSELF SUDDENLY OUTSIDE THE MOLD

THANKS FOR SURE

GOES TO MY *CURE

WHO WIELDS A *LIGHT OF A PREVAILING ESSENCE

 

THIS GAME OF *CONNECT THE DOTS IS FUN

AS I SHOOT FREE FLYING OUT OF A GUN

NOT KNOWING NEXT WHERE I MAY FALL

BUT I KEEP FAITH REMEMBERING ALL

THE MOMENTS OF DARK AND LIGHT

WERE AND ARE WELL WORTH THE FIGHT

 

SO I WROTE ABOUT THE CITY

AND I WROTE ABOUT THE *EYES THAT PASSED

AND I *KEEP WRITING OF WHAT CAME TO PASS

WELL AFTER THE LOOKING GLASS
