Memories are just like throwing rocks

Memories are just like throwing rocks
at a wall your arms get twisted, bent
out of shape sabotaging the sky.
Painting how life is before, after, here,
never.
Questions.
Circumstances.
A bridge quotation.
Walking through a maze toes bent
backwards socks wired.
Foretold accusations.

Training notes the music
outlived a dream.
Setting sun pattered a drug addiction, rain.
Sleeping with a right hand dreamer.
Ink to the back.
Words cut you in the dark.
Parting roads.
Sighing to God.
Breathing too fast daring to know.
Below- dust, fairies, Heaven, shade.

Hearts abandoned, sold.
Crucified bleeding just like God.
Circumcised.
Boob job.
One butterfly wing.
Colored moon.
Face like an angel, glass tooth.

Innocent not afraid.
Believing to love.
Thirsting for knowledge.
Stuck like bubblegum
against an ugly shoe.
Perpetrating anguish.
Flaring flames.
A burnt offering.
Candle's uplifting spirits.
Glowing hollow.

Memories a wall that needs
to be rebuilt.
Thrown, tossed, rigged up.
Driving down roads
having illusions.
Dare to know?

WOW! I think this is my favorite of yours so far! It's so bold!

The first three lines are REALLY cool, and "stuck like bubble gum against an ugly shoe"...what great sounds!
