(As she had done every night since they met, she went in bare feet and a cantaloupe-meat-colored nightshift to the shore of the sea of mist, the verge of the ocean of smothering vapor, the edge of the bewildering haze he called the Brim of Obscurity.)

Rocketships around tonight
Disguised as magic
Holes leak devouring light
From skies of static
He brings roses to her sight
Rite of passage
Where stepford wives unite
She lies in anguish
Two renegades are made
Enemy soil decays
Neither hologram nor alchemy
His hollowed hands climb her balcony
With impatience
Glimpsing her radience
Gaze into her face
Thoughts cease to syncopate

*Scratch*
I'll take you on a voyage through outer space
I'll take you on a voyage through outer space

It was an autumn night
She glimpsed his soaring flight
He fled downpouring twilight
Of a hell enforcing life
Skies hopelessly black
Cries this insomniac
Sunlight begins to crack
He rises from the ash
Another story
Within these Understories
They meet formaly
Drowning slumbering conformity
She takes his hand
Fate changes hands
Forsake this dangerous land
Where his spaceship hangs

*Scratch*
I'll take you on a voyage through outer space
I'll take you on a voyage through outer space

A million dreams of you
A million dreams come true
Words piercing through me
Like a subdued breeze
Amongst these trees
Derelict legacies
Cease to envelop me
Eyes shattering telepathy
We touch Jupiters moons
Mistaken for lucifers tomb
Earth left us confused
Space left my consumed
Twin hearts set adrift
Till her tin eyes became monoliths
Nondescript wonder is her calling card
Observing these falling stars

(still holding her, there at the Brim of Obscurity (which, in an earlier time, had been known as the Rim of Oblivion), he said softly)
