POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Anarchy
another restless night
my trials try to trip me
the world tried to trick me
i fucking lost what i'm here for!
what 18 fucking years was for!
not to give up now
back to reality somehow
a life wasted in money making expenditures
only way i'll conform is if someone else gives my signature
i can't wait for freedom in form of retirement checks
i'm not settling for broke if my fight was second best
i tried to kick the habit
but kicking turns fighting then it was on like rabbits
i'm a fighter, someone needs to be
if someone doesn't take it...

what do you say?
the future dances in my head
a sleepless night in a welcoming bed
and i awake with sickness
who's really to say how it happened
a friend's hand more than a drink they're passin
or the echo of my restless thoughts
the body cannot survive without the mind
the mind cannot survive without the body
so is the sickness i carry daly
soaking through and seeping to the outside of me?
i hope it passes soon
i hate my mind
a place i spend too much time
a make-believe reality is all i create
when my heart finally wants to listen...

impulsive tendancies
close 'em
you just gotta close your eye's
it's a dream if make it,
just gotta fuel enough lies
take in a baby baptized
what'll ya do with what you dispise?
take credit for never holding
but give it back for your thought
always remember what you're taught
but learn as you live
just an examination given
not on your skill of words written
but how well can you test
it's a trick with in a quest
you're lucky you got blessed
breathe in the carbon air
into cancer filled lungs
say no evil no more
so out with...

starlit dreams
i fell for a shooting star
damn aren't they a sight
even the people with obligations in flight
it's beauty that never quits
it's a heaven that spirit lifts
and it's my silent confidant
and nothing in return does it want
that heaven knows what others are blind to
maybe if i look up she'll help me find you
a never un-true, lover, i can't stay
i am pulled and pushed into a judgemental day
i kick and i scream until my vocal chords fray
i wake up and everything is dust again
you can only dream of bathing in the linn
but how romantic that...

it spins,,,,,,,,it spins
when it's sunny the sun has just never seemed farther
when it's pouring out,damn, i wished it'd rain harder
i've got cold lava
and some sweet wine
life's okay today,yeah i guess everything's fine
Janis said "tomorrow never happens man"
"it's all the same fucking day man"
well, it's a plan.
i got cigarettes and my dog is fed
and i got a guitar, now all i need's a river bed
a sandy seat and water at my feet
drink this bottle of sugar red freedom
"here's to everyone, what they love and where ever that leads 'em"...

It's just the wind,nothing more.
when you hear something outside your door
don't jump so soon
the only light here is that of the moon
you only have the night to fear
a noise in a corridor, a creak in the floor
she's not back, it's just the age in the wood
she's never coming back even if she should
worry yourself, until finally you sleep
surely you kept something for peace
certainly you seek something of ease
but nothing,
only listening, enduring, a silent death
there is nothing there and soon of you, will be nothing left
nothing.

never say die, but i should probably try
it seems like years have gone by
still i don't have a complying eye
today at least i know what i want
but today it seems i hide behind no front
it's tremendously hard keeping yourself open
it's excruciating, steady, looking with-in
but what else am i supposed to do?
paint my face and be the fool?
still it comes hard to handle
i know what i see and now i know how i am fragile
took me a while to come to this
so yes. here i am wide open no abyss
i am this. imperfect and constantly presumptuous
but i know i'm not enough and i...

so it goes, on and on
a steady heartbeat and southern discomfort
i can ruin your night or shake your hand for what it's worth
and i know my way around
i have a name you've heard when it comes to the sound
this town reminds me of cheap beer
drunken car rides and before bed tears
pigs and late nights,
an unkind story line and a steady neon light
now i'm tired because life's always a fight
and i don't have to say everything's alright
fuck it, i still don't have an answer

this line of work
a craving for disruption
to be solostin yourlifethat you need destruction
and not a formal deconstruction
but a rebelous act of agrivation
when it fades to black
we'll fly away in a state of alation
turn a blind eye to every once of deviation
not our problem anymore
