the phone rings
my bird sings
my cat meows
the reality of the here and now
the grass has grown it needs to be cut
but honestly i don't give a fuck
the dishes are filling up the sink
but I'd rather lay here and think
there's so much shit i could do
i could learn karate or Kung fu
but i don't
and probably wont
motivation ceased to exist
and everything else just got dismissed
to get out of bed or not that is the question
could these be signs of depression?
i could take a shower
yet i feel...

The curse of the libra
The zodiac is filled with things that live, yet I am the scales
here are some more details
trying to find balance in a imperfect world
standing straight while everything else twirl's
I guess you could say I'm an equilibrium whore
keeping everything balanced is a chore
balancing night with the length of day
always having the need to weigh
a soul in one pan, a feather in the other
trading one pain for another
left,right,left,right
scales tipping all night
never knowing which...

The day before
the day before you died
we held each other and cried
you said we would always be
and you would never leave
i think about that day all the time
you were taken in your prime
i knew you were addicted
i knew you were conflicted
i tried tough love
i tried praying to the god above
nothing worked for long
everything i tried was wrong
when they called to tell me about you
i wouldn't believe it to be true
i drove to the hospital
not wanting it to be possible ...

Presentiment
Oh crystal ball
why didn't you shine for me
why didn't you let me see
the tale unfolds in the dark
there was a boom and then a spark
i don't know what i heard after
but I'm pretty sure, it was laughter
stumbling thru the black
knowing I'm under some sort of attack
confusion for I truly don't know where i might be
and I'm feeling all types of everything
trying to think where i last was
but it remains a fuzz
this might be a dream
but the vibe, it's to extreme
i try to feel around
i listen for...

Forcasted
a cold front is moving in on my heart
never knowing how it starts
just knowing when everything blows apart
Cumulonimbus clouds not soon to depart
dense fogs moves thru my soul
feeling like I'm losing control
effecting me as a whole
the thunder begins to roll
saturated in pain
wondering why it must always rain
visions of you living in my brain
while multivortex tornado's grace my plain
waiting for the mental storm to break
knowing this all i can take
breathing slowly for gods sake
overcast skies begin to shake
...

Nemetona
the vortex,a spiral pattern consisting of a junction in the center
three passages meet, one has a sign that reads, do not enter
i go the way the sign tells me to dismiss
Eleanor of Aquitaine wouldn't have enough thread for this
This maze was made for me
going the wrong way effected my destiny
the trap had been set
a labyrinth filled with regret
maybe the sign was right,
perhaps its to late for insight
i keep walking
the end is what I'm stalking
a confusing network of interconnecting pathways, ...

Water running down walls
It drips slowly
at first,
but then, the water rushes in
trying to absolve me of other peoples sins
demons shroud over me and watch from afar
the water is clear, yet it feels bizarre
cloaked in a sea of darkness, a dream I once had steps in
I start remembering everything I ever did
sadness stares with unforgiving eyes
fate and destiny shake there head at my demise
hope, well she was never really there at all
karma, I can still hear her call
downward spirals like staircases to hell
at last the water begins to...

Things hidden in boxes under beds
Darkness comes when the light leaves
breeding madness and disease
haunted by someone's ghost
I'm it's definitive host
free? whats free?
shadows like blankets cover me
banshees screaming in my head
voices yelling i should be dead
inhabited by something I've never seen
my reflection is caught in between
a stranger in the mirror
looking thru the black for something clearer
static from the television filling my ears
gold and silver orbs appear
knowing now that I've gone crazy
i start to...

The sweet smell of garbage
It's raining in Detroit
yet the johns still look for hookers to exploit
puddles yield oily reflections
in this city there is no affection
crackheads still wait for money by the freeway
foreclosure victim's still looking for a key-way
bums near the casinos hoping for spare change
while hard working people get short changed
It's raining in Detroit
everyone's sharp yet no one has a point
a city basically burned to the ground
at night sirens and bullets the only sound
potholes like graveyards cover the streets
its like everyone...

A Rat In The House May Eat The Ice Cream
They all want a rational number
yet my mind is encumbered
circles and squares
vanishing into thin air
less than greater than
whats the master plan
polygons and pyramids
turning into viruses
arithmetic and mathematics
who knew it could be so dramatic
triangles and spheres
making me tear
the square root of it all
feeling very small
rectangular hyperbolas and isosceles triangles
my mind is in tangles
yet my mind is encumbered
circles and squares
vanishing into thin air
less than greater than
whats the master plan
polygons and pyramids
turning into viruses
arithmetic and mathematics
who knew it could be so dramatic
triangles and spheres
making me tear
the square root of it all
feeling very small
rectangular hyperbolas and isosceles triangles
my mind is in tangles

Something i found along the way
on my own since the age of fifteen
there's not much I haven't seen
the beauty and the horror
and that's why I feel the need to open this door
I want to tell the world that,
a
minute
a
second
a
day
or
a
week
or
a
year
does not define you
so please give ear
empty and searching for something real
it seemed everywhere I went I was given a raw deal
at times i was so low
I wanted to let go
sleeping on the streets
nothing to eat...

Pelagic
I've swum to the deep parts again
a current of tears brings forth memories
old wounds reopened,
salt water rushes in
A hurricane of fear
brings sadness to the shores of my soul
leaving sediment in my heart,
the sea wall has fallen
The Barrier reef of the brain
a long, narrow ridge of coral thoughts
beyond it
a lagoon of madness
Sunken ships of lost feelings
trying to resurface
anger floats like driftwood
that came from the abyss
the hadal of the psyche
dark and deep
pain and angst...
