party

Standing in that kitchen
The cold tile glowing radiantly under the dying oven light
Late into the morning late into the evening
Leaning against the loose knobs of the cold stove top
Coming down from mushroom acid drunk trip holding a can of beer in my hand
feeling the open flesh under finger nails
Listening to you laugh and the sounds of your voices 
echoing into the darkened walls of the old house I was waiting for the universe 
To halt itself in momentary standstill to split into a billion known possibilities 
to reach the end of its endless trek into the ever sharpening void
Standing in that kitchen wanting to hold each of you forever screaming 
into the abyss of timeless nothing-ness and shadow
Sitting here tonight alone under the foggy light of a winter moon 
wishing it all had come true
