Grateful Dead

Dark star crashes,
pouring its light into ashes.
Reason tatters,
the forces tear loose from the axis.
Searchlight casting
for faults in the clouds of delusion.
Shall we go,
you and I while we can
Through the transitive nightfall of diamonds?

Mirror shatters
in formless reflections of matter.
Glass hand
dissolving to ice petal flowers revolving.
Lady in velvet
recedes in the nights of good-bye.
Shall we go,
you and I while we can
Through the transitive nightfall of diamonds?
