TRANSFIXED

wide awake well past a reasonable hour...i am hypnotized by the moon...full of light--reflecting power...the sky freezes in time as my synapses fire...smoking too many cigarettes...seduced by desire...transfixed and transformed--mind yearning to evolve...seeking hope--seeking strength...angels rise--angels fall...my spirit is renewed--cosmic power in my brain...i survived suicide...overcoming psychic pain....we are born to create--ashes to ashes--dust to dust...we strive for liberation...solidarity grows from trust...transfixed by the light--transfixed in the dark...our rebellion flexes muscle...healing traumas in our hearts
