A Boy Without Rain

In the recesses of doubt and distraction I find—fire Lightning strikes my vertigo on the mountain And I snap I lose the grasp I had on Evergreen, this pit of errors Where love is aggrandized Where love spells red letters Where I find this licking light Can’t complain, friend I’ve never endured myself so long At times where the fire looms enormous, friend How today, shadow?
