Technicolor sky
P.T.S.D.
It was in those early days
when everything seemed technicolor
there was that explosion
only inward
then nothing
then something called time
interspersed with more implosions
always sudden
always mysterious
always unexpected
always crippling in affect
and then....
it is decades later
it seems i have awakened from
an empty black and white dream
and i am looking up
at the technicolor sky
and all i want
is to be back safe
in my black and white dream
because that technicolor sky
is too beautiful and blazing
so filled with possibilities
lost possibilities
forgotten possibilities
stolen possibilities
broken possibilities
something about that technicolor sky
wants to tear this wounded heart apart
wants to make me look at it
wants to make me believe
that it can be a possibility for me
so i stay here, safe here
in my black and white dream
waiting for the blessed end
and i’m ready for the time
that i’m called up there again
into that technicolor sky
and those endless possibilities
promised by the technicolor sky
will be for me
