    Thoughts about after forever

    How to survive the end of the world
    The four horses of the apocalypse gallop across your chest
    and you wonder where love went
    You remember where you were
    when the music died and the lights went out
    all over the world. You know we will always have Paris.
    and the time we took the last plane for the coast.
    Hold on to your fear. It is all you have.
    Fear's not worth nothin but it's free.
    Watch the ghost riders cross the sky
    while you conquer the night.
    Whimper with the best planet anybody ever loved
    as you run to catch the wind.
    Pretend to be alive, it will take you far
    But even Paniolas get the blues
    And you can wake up at the beginning
    if only you don't leave your heart.
    at home. You may need it in the next scene.

    Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
