The Wrong Side Of The Rainbow

 

I skipped a life and floated

In a dark blue milky void

Suddenly I was pulled back into

A rebirth I tried to avoid

 

I came into this crazy world screaming

Evicted from the comforts

Of my sweet, mother's womb

Slapped around just enough

To keep me screaming

And living with the hell fire  

In a  mind exploding tomb

 

You could say that I was born  

On the wrong side of the rainbow

And on the wrong side of the rainbow

You've got to color up your dreams

And do all your mountain climbing

While the summer sun is shining

And all the time keep smiling

So no one hears your screams

 

Each morning of my life

I wake up screaming

Seeing through a demon's eyes

A soul that I once sold

It's hard to realize

I've just been dreaming

Chasing magic notions

That I'll find that pot of gold

 

I wrote this poem after reading

Helter-Skelter.  Need I say more.
