POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
My cat could beat up your cat
Grind
Stuck in the grind
Getting pulled side to side
Hope something gives
Already used all the tricks
Barely even old
Cold sweats to the bone
Take it how it comes
Don’t get your head spun.
Still got so long
Don’t know right from wrong
Never knew a home
Don’t know where I belong
Gotta stay on the hunt
Can’t say that it’s fun
The grind’s got me down
And I’ll spread it all around.
Getting pulled side to side
Hope something gives
Already used all the tricks
Barely even old
Cold sweats to the bone
Take it how it comes
Don’t get your head spun.
Still got so long
Don’t know right from wrong
Never knew a home
Don’t know where I belong
Gotta stay on the hunt
Can’t say that it’s fun
The grind’s got me down
And I’ll spread it all around.

Hey Baby
Hey baby,
I wonder where you come from.
She said to me,
“I come from where the sky meets the sea,
stretching on, beyond sound and trees,
From energy.”
So I said, Hey baby.
Where you wanna go to?
“I wanna go away from spiteful stares,
away from deadlines, fees, and fares,
I want freedom..”
Well, Hey Baby
Can’t tell, what you think
You know I come from a different place,
A place that lies between time and space,
I’m unreal.
Well, hey what do you say?
Do you wanna go down?
Two halves trying to...
I wonder where you come from.

Headspace
One step forward, two steps back
Feeling good even tho you stabbed
Gonna subtract the facts, just to try to feel
And spend my life picking up all the shit you spill
Now harsh words baby that’s all we know
And sweet love making just goes to show
That toxic things can burn and sting
As well as make you feel oh so sweet
Can you fix my headspace?
Or did you make it this way
3 days later, you still ain’t home
And I’ve been playing my fingers to the bone
Singin bout the blues, and the, pretty things
And sulking...

Angel
Angel,
is this a sign?
I've been waiting for you to fly on by
Take me to your angle
To your point of view
And in return I will play your tune
And I'm just going where the wind blows
Somehow it blew me right to you
Life seems to have many doors and, many avenues
And somehow I've found a home with you
You take away my anger
Fill me up with ease
And calm the flames the way you smile on me
My love will never wonder
Cuz all I want is you
Come together what we feel is true
is this a sign?

And somehow I've found a home with you
You take away my anger
Fill me up with ease
And calm the flames the way you smile on me
My love will never wonder
Cuz all I want is you
Come together what we feel is true

Till the morning comes
Some say all that you know
Is what you are
And it’s hard to, think like you do
Here from afar
Don’t ya know?
Well I know of a place far down from here.
Bonfires and fireflies, with dancing spheres.
So let the good times roll
And let your hair hang down.
Cuz you know we aren’t gonna stop
Till the morning comes around.
(Chorus)
And I’ll drive my wheels all through the country.
I’d walk the mile, just to come back home to you.
Ways of the world, got me feelin’ down, so low.
I need to come back home, to...
Is what you are
And it’s hard to, think like you do
Here from afar
Don’t ya know?

And let your hair hang down.
Cuz you know we aren’t gonna stop
Till the morning comes around.
(Chorus)
And I’ll drive my wheels all through the country.
I’d walk the mile, just to come back home to you.
Ways of the world, got me feelin’ down, so low.
I need to come back home, to...

Daytripping
Lately
My mind has been all cloudy
But sheltered from your storms
So lady
Relax and come on down now
Cuz what you feel can spread around
Daily
My thoughts, they turn and fall on you
But are they true?
So maybe
It’ll come and go away like rain
Daytrippin, in the shade
I’m not lazy
My hours seem to drift away
But whose got the time, anyway?
So don’t save me
The path I walks my very own
And if I’m forced, I’ll walk alone.
My mind has been all cloudy
But sheltered from your storms
So lady
Relax and come on down now
Cuz what you feel can spread around
Daily
My thoughts, they turn and fall on you
But are they true?
So maybe
It’ll come and go away like rain
Daytrippin, in the shade
I’m not lazy
My hours seem to drift away
But whose got the time, anyway?
So don’t save me
The path I walks my very own
And if I’m forced, I’ll walk alone.

The scholar
Walking around, the same street signs as before.
I’m thinking, what do I really know?
Tho I’ve changed, my thoughts have never turned,
from the words we spoke
And now we’re miles away
So many things we can’t say
One day I’ll run away and life is what I’ll capture
I wonder what you’ll think
So if you ever hear my name,
and see lights all around.
Just know I’m living life fully,
don’t think I’m ever coming down
Got some things, on my mind.
Not really sure what I’ll do.
Maybe I’ll go ask the scholar,
but I’m...

Supernova
You're a supernova,
and I'm confined by your spell.
I survived and I'm alive, and I'm just
going with the waves, can you tell?
I deduced that what to do,
is everything that includes you.
You've got charm, and I mean no harm,
I'm just trying to take you where you ain't been to.
Side to side, and south to north,
I just wanna get in your collision course.
Skim my skies, and dim the lights,
I can feel myself pulled by your force.
I devise where we'll subside,
is the valley between moon and sky.
Anxious now, pretentious...

Stained shirt
Lay down with me outside
Listen to my words
Lemme tell you a story about
The evil in the world
So many try to find a way
End up in the dirt
Seems to be where I’m headed
With a stained shirt
Just find a beat you rock to
Who knows which is right
Just because you’re beaten down
Don’t mean you lost the fight
Just don’t lose your way
You’ll make it someday

lament
Do I flirt a lot? No
It's just the same hoes
Wearing different clothes
But still the same tho
So tell me how to cope
When life's in reverse
Playing over and over
Like this shit is cursed
I've met a lot of people
that turn to the needle
coke, heroin, pills, speed
it's all so equal
I've seen it all man
I need to make a plan
Escape the life and
Stop telling myself I can't
But I feel branded
And they don't understand it
So I'll pick the strap
Spit these raps
Stack this cash
And kick...

Loving beauty
So hear my words
And feel my sounds
I’m tired of feeling like
I’m just a messing around
I wanna drift away..
I wanna drift away..
So take me as I come
Cuz I can’t stay long
I got some things in my head
Spoiled, going wrong
I wanna get away
Get away
So baby, take me please
To the sound and trees
Loving beauty
Flowing through me, right now
Summer flings
Just agree
Don’t tell me my thinking is so absurd
Just feel my voice, and hear my words
I will never steer you wrong
And...
