6 AM in the morning
peering through a hole in the clouds
ready to touch down
from a chemically induced flight
all in the name of art

And out of cerebral sonic boom
comes a sincere desire
to be super natural once again
realizing the hazards
of getting lost in oneself
brings about personal renaissance

I’ve let the dream
run away with itself
while over the years somehow
still managed to hang on
wisdom adding new perspective
to the canvas of sky
cleaner ways of interpreting its colours

No I don’t have to be out
all hours of the night
fighting thunder and lightning
to make the pen sing aloud
and I don’t have to worry
about crashing in flames
because my feet have always
been on the ground
though its obvious now
I’ve misplaced them

This is Charlie Juliet Sierra
calling planet Earth
requesting permission to land
