too many words

can’t even identify
sometimes the phantom
moves fast
where did he go
off with his horns
wailing from miles away
two o’clock higher
and downhill by seven
everyone has changed
no one spends the time
will tell he or the phantom
telling too many stories
all inclusive once
this masterpiece incomplete
inch by inch and book by book
too many words
or else stuck in the head
he thinks as the phantom reappears
new tales and winding trails
darkness of e.b. roads at one a.m.
phantom daylight
sitting and empties his head
down to it’s final cell
splitting and recreating
what once was only a dream…
