Look who's rolling up here <br /> in one of many space cities f r e e <br /> the cages removed the cages of Time & Space <br /> washed from his hands <br /> and the fence rolled up into the arena <br /> he has a big planet around his foot / peaceful music out of his lungs <br /> <br /> <br /> Mi-chael roll the ball a-head! <br /> <br /> Mi-chael's ball is a mu-sic ball <br /> <br />recently risen above the horizon filled with warm blood <br /> <br /> <br /> vivid red and heavy he pats Buddha on the crown <br /> the last outpost of the space city this <br /> gilt enlightened Buddha head <br /> extinguished inside and empty echoing <br /> from metal <br /> <br /> <br /> a vivid red heavy full moon <br /> above the water tower <br /> <br /> <br /> the water tower erected in 1900 <br />in the shape of a medieval castle's corner tower <br />out of use now <br />with muddy passages to different districts left beneath the surface <br />a beautiful decoration in floodlights <br />on its hill at the horizon out east <br /> <br /> <br /> how fast he moves the thirsty one / along the skyline <br /> over the interrogation rooms of the police headquarters downtown <br /> towards the founder of the secret society <br /> who's got a black pointed hood before his face <br /> with holes for his eyes shining yellow in the dark <br /> <br /> <br />then he goes behind the back of a war god from a great power period <br />a dark petrified body whose single Odin eye is shining as well <br />blindly showing the cycle of time at the level of the Buddha moon <br />which is rolling on over the ridge before rising <br /> <br /> <br />a high note above the Northern hemisphere the soul circulating in its orbit <br />can't back but return after a round <br /> <br /> <br /> the whole turn round acrobat <br /> hanging in the hollow of your knees <br /> the whole turn round full moon <br /> above the lifting cranes<br /><br />Mikael Ejdemyr<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/introduction-to-a-bartender-s-good-night/
