A tremendous pinball machine in the night.
the entire continent,
no, the entire world itself
the planet wreathed in electric lights.
not a new place, but a new world. an alien world.
in the alien world cracks appear in the sidewalks before you step on them.
caskets rise in the sky like little blimps. the chrome gleams on the rotting, rusted streets. lions are made of stone, and the beggars beg you for
just a quarter please brother - i haven't eaten just for a bite to eat
push you off in the darkness
did you hear that shhhh
i sense your smile but cant see your face in front of me
nightmares. leave me in peace, ghosts.
