midnight jazz club

the machine

i feel the clanking metals calling upon me

in tongues of roaring engines

i feel the streaks of lights swallowing me

the winds washing over me

the wheels wishing for me

i feel my soaring wings

piercing through this leather jacket

i feel this gear wrapping my skull

i feel it much more than my own skin

much like an extension of me

and i feel this machine is one with me

like exoskeleton or a parasitic disease

this is what i ought to be

the machine, it's calling for me

and i'm not leaving it to ring
