Intensity


Feel the urge pulsating, throbbing your veins
Swirl of passion yearning release
Energy busting out of the seams
Flames permeating the air through pores
The thick taste that torments thought
Mind and body and soul and energy
Weld, juxtapose, conglomerate, fuse
A drive to extend this farce
Push it away while pulling back in
Electricity excites every ending
From top to bottom, side to side
A powderkeg of energy
On the verge of explosion
The potential energy to rival Armageddon
Super senses sound simultaneously
Conceived as new, but pickled with old
Intensity soaring higher than ego
Shattering the metaphysical reality
And realizing the dreams of adolescents
Tomorrow’s techniques translated today
Formed from insight; Unpredictable
With the force to stop an army
Yet the tenderness for personal utopia
Taking flight as an infant butterfly
