Let that remain
I exclaimed to the shadows
feeling weaker and shallow
Leave me my joy
My childlike ways
Intense lunatic smiles
Absurd hilarious miles
Leave me this
I want not your tedious files
These piles of papers
These broken down staplers
Your penchant for maiming
These memory desires
My childhood list
Of all I´d acquire
Leave me the sun
Browning my face
resting in corners
in historic quarters
Hiding from you
Leave me my joy
Be not so severe
Surrendered ambition
Triumphant expectation
Leave me this now
A childlike wonder
Basking in light
Leave me this joy
Take not these dreams
My childlike zeal
Rebellious heart nature thrill
Conforming to none
My proper creation
Never imitation
Leave me this please
Seeking my knee-bent captitulation
Broken heart reeducation?
Leave me the sun
On dusty desert shores
Slowly sipping, energy tripping
Observing from far
Soaking in life
Quoting my Byron
Leave me this love
Her luminous eyes
How she lights fires
In our raging desires
In quiet-filled moments
A provenance of hope
Redemption from destruction
Eviscerating the dark
Leave me my soul
Frought and afire
Unique, never for hire
This one possession I claim
My unique contribution
Before eternal consummation
Leave me the music
Flowing through fingers
Jubilantly rendered
Provoking my tears, love and pain
Memory revisited
On ivory and black keys
From ancient composers
Who died in cold rooms
Leave me my engines
Revolution attraction
Symphonies of metal
Aluminum and fire
Gasoline-soaked
potent power speed
Leave me this humor
This absurd contradiction
This person I am
My preposterous actions
Fighting with dogs
Drunk in the streets
Making her laugh
Leave me my sons
Their gentle sweet whispers
Young wisdom they speak
Their enormous potential
Leave me alone ....from your cynical glare
Your obsessive stare
Seeking to commit
My mind to submit
To your congregation
This inculcating deception
Leave me in peace
Leave me my joy
I resign from your conception
Of some resurrection
Preferring my engines, my music, my love
My sons…..of these I am subscribed
and never shall cancel
