Cloud 9

Blue black
some red attached
roll the dice twice
a nine
thrice is mine
to live or die
a thousand times
throwing rocks at the sun
watching the distance
run out from under
the shame of the thunder
rolling down the mountain
looking for the blue
in the fountain
nothing is real
on cloud nine
time is acid
melting my mind.
