When The Music's Over

Never able to break on through
caught in the time capsule
of yesterday's tomorrow
he wandered alone …
Searching the darkened streets
of Santa Monica
hearing the music-chasing the words
dancing as demons followed behind
Channeling ancient voices
trapped outside a future closed
to his irreverent questioning
-lost within the storm
