Chronic Sleep Deprivation
Day 1
Tiredness is setting in
Unable to go to sleep
My impaired concentration
Preventing me counting sheep
48 hrs
Slow processing abilities
Solutions I can't solve them
Extreme irritability
One of my many problems
Day 3
Major difficulties thinking
Microsleeps unofficially
Walls closing in and shrinking
Hallucinations seen visually
96 hrs
Distortion in perception
Revealed secrets expose us
Exhausted mental deception
Disorienting psychosis
Day 5
Complete mental breakdown...

FaFo
slapstick humour
breaks bones
funnily collapsing lungs
during luge practice,
distract it
a little goes a loooong way
the face of the company
an angle,
a cute memory
snapping synapses,
a little girl can learn so much more
another version of me
to make the textbooks cry in
inferiority
the stupid ginger minority
not hurting but blurting,
all sorts of stupid things
like i cant remember how to
type correctly,
my :"type"
is correctkional facility
junk band reject
not...

Trance
The water
...The air
...The light
…Delight states of trance.
…So I want to be today.
…As being in this space,
…A witness for a glimpse,
...A child of the unknown.
…Where the slightest detail
Is just another mystic to be felt.
…Joy circulates in my veins as I absorb and expand.
…So much to touch!
..To make it mine!

You're dead to me Google
The moon exploded
Stars fell from the sky
Obsessed with ourselves
We asked Google why?
Hey Google
What's happening in the night sky
Is the earth being attacked
Are we all going to die?
The last words Google ever said were
Is that correct ....you want a pie?
Stars fell from the sky
Obsessed with ourselves
We asked Google why?
Hey Google
What's happening in the night sky
Is the earth being attacked
Are we all going to die?

Siren Song
There's a dark eyed girl on her way
She's going to steal your soul
Before the sun's on the rise
Better get back home if you know what's best
Her voice is the siren song
And she's got your ear
Got your a- ten-tion
She's going to pull your life onto the rocky shoals
She's going to leave you lost and broken
Her charms are more than you can bear
She'll chew you up and spit you out
She'll tear you down
She just don't care
There's a dark eyed girl rolling into town
And she's got mayhem on her mind
She doesn't care about...
She's going to steal your soul
Before the sun's on the rise
Better get back home if you know what's best
Her voice is the siren song
And she's got your ear
Got your a- ten-tion
She's going to pull your life onto the rocky shoals
She's going to leave you lost and broken
Her charms are more than you can bear
She'll chew you up and spit you out
She'll tear you down
She just don't care
There's a dark eyed girl rolling into town
And she's got mayhem on her mind
She doesn't care about...

Silence
Giving up on your inner impulse!
Letting the word you would have said in the silent.
Feels like biting up your teeth.
Chewing them.
As you sense the rigid particles with your tongue.
And hear the cracking sounds.
Going on swallowing and saying:
«I am not hungry, I just ate!»
Letting the word you would have said in the silent.
Feels like biting up your teeth.
Chewing them.
As you sense the rigid particles with your tongue.
And hear the cracking sounds.
Going on swallowing and saying:

Why bother?
It's simpler to just stay here, stay put. nothing ever happens the way you want it to in life. there are always some elements that interfere with the intentions you've shared with the aether. you've been told many a great things about how rewarding overcoming the challenges can be and such, but in the end you've been had. forced to conform to the normalcy, the inadequacy, of the circumstances unfolding before you. a stronger infusion of the tea of opportunity, forgetting that opportunity was the prize and instead becoming merely a tribute to what you truly wanted. "Expect disappointment...

new sun
that
morning's
ember,
how it
jumps,
it flies
on the
edge of
rumors,
each
descending
into the
corners
of
my room,
scraping
the
darkness
away,
leaving
my world
smoldering
while the
sun's
bloom
moves on.

The Cult of the Two Feet
You stand now, knees trembling on the path of a precipice, the truth is, it is only your two feet who have ever kept you there, it is only your two feet that will ever keep you from slipping, stride on friend, keep your balance right…

Gloomy Night
As she wandered alone
Nobody came along
Her heart skittered so high
Eyes worried in the gloom
The only light a lamp
At the end of a road
Someday he will find
The little brown mutt
With sad blue eyed frown
And recall her name
More than his best friend
For now she looks
Lost and lonely
A little thin
Slightly dirty
Can’t find bones
A soft bed
Masters hand
Upon
Her head
Warm.

Lost and lonely

POGO STICK.
People think they know her
They see a face blue eyes and
half a smile in peach Melba
lipstick.
They don’t see her with all her
internal drawers from the whispers
of her curly locks of hair to her two
tone mod shoes . With a buckle on
show in a silvery wistful way .
She is invisible to most which makes
her feel like a ghost in life but it is
better to remain a mystery. Maybe
she is murder she wrote of the true
detective but she won’t give you any
clues .

water (in nature)
the warmth
of the sun
catching me
standing
there
at one
there
of my
favorite
chosen
scenic edges,
trees and
blue sky
copied on
the surface,
while slight
hills
dominate
each side,
caressing
her flow
downward
into lands
below,
and i
stand still
while
daydreaming
with her.
