Myths of dragons and eternity

 oh thickness 
thickness of space
rise time dragon of ills and 
rise and fly monster

obscure the moon with your wings
burn the city down by accident
in the thickness of your flame
unintended massive fire

thickness of crux
Heart's central whim
moon exposed
technical error

Just one correction waiting
so distilled in you
longing to be healed
boiled lolly spoke the toothless

just to walk said the paralyzed
Life backward the old man laughed
Life backward marveled God himself
A voice screamed the tongueless

Just one correction in all of you
handpicked by the accident that befell you
Pulling you out screaming for second chances
as we force the medicine down your throat

In ignorance for
as we look at all of you
there's more scar tissue than unaffected flesh
all mirrored exactly in the heart

To think clearly said the dullard
looking up to the ceiling as if the answer would be written there
Just a twisting a wringing of your insides
a microchip in the brain

To disallow your impulse responses from steering you
toward the same place you typically crash
Life's path lived backwards you humm 
The tongueless screams

eternity gets up off the sofa and puts a coffee on
he turns around to give you a few decades of mockery
You sat at that table and wrote into existance
as eternity dictated pre caffeine

wings and scales and lungs full of gasoline
flying to the glow far over the horizon
To some city that forgot you existed
