out insanity
that shit fills me
all encompassing
everywhere, nowhere

never weakening
only strengthening

A Faint Fog
Waiting on my frozen icy
heart to melt and become
one with the endless skies.
Disappearing into the ether
never to rain down upon me
ever again.
I am letting go.
Will you?
heart to melt and become
one with the endless skies.
Disappearing into the ether
never to rain down upon me
ever again.
I am letting go.
Will you?

The Amnesiac
No memories
nothing to be fond of
it's all gone
erased
or hidden
I cannot remember
what if I could
what would happen.
Only forward because
back isn't visible anymore
maybe a blessing
I still feel cheated
like there's more to know
about myself about life
I know things so I was taught
I can read and spell and walk
but not sing I can't remember
any songs I just know there's a
melody I cant hear it,
I know red means stop and
green go but as Im walking
I know there's nowhere to go. ...

Low-key Participation
I watch the world
I dont touch it
certainly dont want it
touching me.
Keep the peace
keep your space
If you're to close
I cant see, life.

There Will Be Flooding
It isn't given it isn't taken
it just begins
slowly
no one noticing
dark empty skies
dead beautiful flowers
then a reversal of extreme power
nothing's black except for the blue
people wonder
is this really you
smile big and proud
give twinkle fingers
for your shrouded crowd
they waited patiently
for the heart to break
show them the truth,
show them all heartache.

Creepy Uncle
I see the T.V.
it sees me too
I can hear it
it hears me too
never to be alone
truly
alone
again.
What has it made you think
where has it made you go
who is susceptible?

Glass Splinters
I cannot unsee it
thus it's there
in the forefront
it comes in blinks
staying just long enough
to be felt and thought about
closing my eyes, hanging my head
stops nothing so I stare into space
absorbing the anxiety around me
seeing it again and again
oh the things that get embedded.

Never Knowing
In the depths of another lonely midnight
I cannot sleep nor lay still
wondering about everything
that isn't or once was
coveting a past that overshadows
the here and now.
If, is the devil's word and brings
me back to the wonder, the why's
and if only I would have, the saddest
part is I didn't.
Even sadder what if I did?

Cars and Screams
His banged up Ford Fusion wouldn't
start again closing his eyes and gripping
the wheel he wanted to scream a loud
guttural scream but he didnt want to
alert the neighbors so he just let out a
long sigh. No breaks. Not for him. Ever.
He pulled the latch, popping the hood
and grabbing a Phillips screwdriver.
Nothing looks fucked or out of place
he wiggled some hoses and checked his
battery cables. He tries to start his car
again but nothing. He wants to punch
the windshield but that would be
another $200 he doesn't have. He...

Rope Burn
He said something about Texas
and horses, I dont know
something about bulls and a rodeo.
Where's Clay?
He put a rope around his neck
to a tree, he smacked his rental horse
screaming out weeeeeeeeee
the pony took off and a loud snap
was heard, the tree branch broke
and Clay busted his ass on his own
spurs.
The Cowboy lives to ride again.

Spill The Beans
I've burned my heart with truth
sure it hurts but without this pain
I may be nothing
knowing is better than wondering
punch with me honesty
do not tickle me with lies
it's not storytime this is real life.

Some Guy
He was awful on the eyes
kinda bald, kinda not here and there hair
wearing a typical dirty stained
white tank top known offically as the
wife beater his jeans were blue, once,
now they looked like muddied water
his shoes though,
were fancy, black and glossy
looking as if they had just been shined
I could see my reflection in the gleaming
leather.
He stood next to me waiting to cross
the street I greeted him with a slight
non-toothy grin
he greeted me with a smile so white
and almost sunlight bright it...
