oblivion


by wiggly jones, "the little hippie boy"





oft, in the middle distance
i am overwhelmed by existence
my brain explodes in purple waves
and oblivion i crave

oblivion, my dear friend
when did our romance end?
once i held you tight
and you consoled me every night

something went wrong
in a dream i heard a song
and followed it down a street
not knowing what i might meet

and what i met i must confess
was nothing but - nothingness
what it whispers i hear not
it laughs - at what i have forgot

o if i could only sleep!
there is an appointment i must keep
beneath the mocking midnight sky
without a star, without an eye
