Poet Introduction
I am what you see. For all you will ever know is what you can see.
Love Never Fails or Job Lives On
I saw you in a video today
Sometime when
You were alive
Now I see you in my mind
In that future
Promised to our kind
I'll never forget
So how can he?
Job never died in his mind
Sometime when
You were alive
Now I see you in my mind
In that future
Promised to our kind
I'll never forget
So how can he?
Job never died in his mind

Still Sending...
Sending my love
To the you of me
Stitching the holes
Between we
As Shrodingers' cat looks on
Observantly
To the you of me
Stitching the holes
Between we
As Shrodingers' cat looks on
Observantly

Dancing in Orbit
Finding the dance within
I see the rhythm
Of impossibility
No accident
Of perpetual motion
Are we
I see the rhythm
Of impossibility
No accident
Of perpetual motion
Are we

Faithful to...
Sending my love
Eternally
To continue
The me of we
For I am faithful
With and without thee
Eternally
To continue
The me of we
For I am faithful
With and without thee

Climbing the Alkaline Rope
Here I consume patience
Peace and hope
As I swallow the alkalinity
Of my rope
Peace and hope
As I swallow the alkalinity
Of my rope

Negative Voltage = Negative Output
The sickness of you
Hangs loudly
In the silence
Of the library
As you threaten to kill, maim, and hurt
Others to whom you assign your worth
Hangs loudly
In the silence
Of the library
As you threaten to kill, maim, and hurt
Others to whom you assign your worth

Arrow of my Hand
My love I send to you
Dancing on the wind
Landing within
An arrow of my hand
To stab your heart
With my absence
Dancing on the wind
Landing within
An arrow of my hand
To stab your heart
With my absence

Expandable
Have you ever noticed?
Yeast is like a virus
Expanding without conservation
Exhausting resources without a thought
You are what you eat...

Sputtering
The last of my kind
Faithful and loyal
In body and mind
Tattered, sputtering spark
That I am
Faithful and loyal
In body and mind
Tattered, sputtering spark
That I am

Entropy is a Law not a Suggestion
Of the things that are senseless to me
About the things they taught we,
How do our orbits continue?
In the thousands of years of observation
We haven't slowed down
About the things they taught we,
How do our orbits continue?
In the thousands of years of observation
We haven't slowed down

Pruning is Hard on Limb and Tree, Yet Vital for Both to Thrive
I am grateful
That you choose not to be with me
For you were right
We are different people
I am loyal
Steadfast
Demanding that we be
Better today than yesterday
That isn't who you want to be
So I am grateful
That you rejected me
Now we can heal
From where we had begun to merge into we
That you choose not to be with me
For you were right
We are different people
I am loyal
Steadfast
Demanding that we be
Better today than yesterday
That isn't who you want to be
So I am grateful
That you rejected me
Now we can heal
From where we had begun to merge into we

A Tribute
This container of galaxies
This star map of possibilities
Amazing giants of molecular matter
All a tribute to the maker
Of we
This star map of possibilities
Amazing giants of molecular matter
All a tribute to the maker
Of we
