Description Ten minutes till…
Till you clutch her in your arms
Her hair glittered with red

You spoke out her name in Technicolor
Industrialized nation singing in tune
With our Americanized techno

Save your god.

Ten minutes till…
Till you stare at your hands
Lost in the glory of the blood
Red. Blue. White.
Ten minutes till…

Her eyes were star-laden when she sang
And when you staked her, her skin was striped
And your blue eyes couldn’t grasp.

Ten minutes till…
Till you clutch her in your arms
Her hair glittered with freedom.
Ten minutes till.

Nice writing. I hope i can write like this, but i guess it can't be learned.

This is really awesome and all the more disturbing because it reminds me of someone I know. I'm not quite sure what you're getting at with the American dream references, though, unless you're blaming American society for this person's condition...
Assuming, of course, that I read your meaning correctly, I just sort of assumed that the poem was about paranoid schizophrenia... maybe I should look at that picture now...
In any case, an exellent job. Your messege is a bit unclear but then no one ever said poetry was about clarity.
