STAIRCASES a Poem

STAIRCASES

Up and down in retroflection
Where to we go?
Wandering in disaffection
How do we know?

We live on staircases
Don’t know where they lead
We live on staircases
That we can’t see

Face your refection, your predilections
Don’t let them win
Ascend from darker sections
Don’t let him in

We live on staircases
Don’t know where they lead
We live on staircases
That we can’t see

Seek your perfection, a deeper connection
Don’t lose your way
There was a Resurrection
Don’t look away

Go up your staircases
Know where they lead
Don’t live on staircases
That you can’t see

Know where they
Know where they
Know where they lead
Know where they
Know where they
Know where they lead


“Hey Mitch, what’s this poetry thing all about?” I want to collaborate with Blue Öyster Cult and I’m hoping the Öyster Boys will think this would make a good lyric.

Did you know I wrote a paranormal/mystery/romance book inspired by Blue Öyster Cult’s lyrical themes?  Click here to download it here for free!

The cover to my book “Chatters on the Tide” inspired by the music of Blue Öyster Cult
