“Rainbow Days by Stewart Stafford
They make us live in monochrome,
Autoerotic under a mirrored dome,
Regurgitating back this non-entity,
Inside I scream it's the death of me.
In between bouts of colon screening,
Rainbow days in a third eye's gleaming,
Silence a throbbing executioner's drum,
Brass muffling the demagogue's hum.
Shattered manacles I'm going to see,
As I'm leaving this world for infinity,
Christen horror hurricanes after me,
On submerged planet earth, Terra-Firma-On-Sea.

“It's a peculiar feeling, the sensation of eyes watching you. Eyes can do so much from a distance; indeed, almost everything that hands can. They can caress, like the gentle fingertips of a lover. They can glide like warm water over the skin. They can also chill one's blood to ice or set it aflame. They can even dissolve skin and flesh with the savage destruction of viciously hurled acid.”
