Throughts Dribblin'
I look at my whole life and say
that thing's been crazy
then
I chip at my own mass till I'm paper thin
as ten obituaries
Plaster me with compliments,
I'm quick to be too thick to carry
Strap me to your mast
until your whole boat flips
and we're both ocean buried
Value too varied, mostly nary
These notions are scary and
there's no comparing
to misery sewn to liver and bone,
Omens overgrown, I wobble under the
weight of woes that
shadows are sharing,
please don't compare me.
I'm a leech on a hoof,
soon deceased on a noose,
I'm the needle fallen
from cedar or spruce
or one in an arm doing harm to a dude
who saw Vietnam and a bomb
and alarming world views
where the few save a few
and the rest blame the mess on the ones
with the mud on their shoes and
Demons now glued to a mark
neath' a hole in a vest
where a bullet kaboomed..
..Guide em through, drag em through,
tie em to,
sweat born of lies and the place
in the brain that
resides in the gloom
Red eyes from some fumes
and red eyes in the faces of ghosts
that presume
the worst about you
and it's true,
but the dirt it can bloom,
when girth's gained anew,
when curtains are drawn
while you spew and just write
and
fight it off
Roll up your passion and
light it
raw
Give back with vibes
as vibrant
as the flight of macaws
Consider
those nights that you saw as
needles
and knives in the straw
But the cows need tending
and in
the chicken coop lives the
plight of the claws,
It's alright
and in fact, of your life I'm in awe,
saddle up
pack the truck,
we can fly to the
stars
Make light of a black hole,
tell Venus of Mars
Play catch with a comet,
redeem all our flaws
or just flee into schemes and guitars,
into dreams as we sleep our alarms,
what's the harm for a sinner to scar
Or sell farm, string a yarn
that they'll buy
then be
tied
to the storm,
Lightning warned
of a system
with no sight of warm
sunny days, just deluge,
righteous rage
and twisted up cages with animal waste
and crying eye faces
and flames burning high
in fields of graves
that have turned into mazes
Mince the meat,
strap some heat,
we're going out blazing,
let's face it, the fire's amazing,
the blood,
You should taste it
All over the place,
pupils race,
palpitations,
my tattered shirt shakes,
Pull the pin,
load a clip,
grab her hair,
take a sip,
Hiding
my laces,
I'm
liable
to trip,
and to flip and to skip out of town,
going down,
I can't get a grip,
and my flight just a blip, plus
arthritis in hips and poised poison
on lips have hit
me as scary
I've all but no skin to strip,
organs groan,
seen glaring
by others
till I don't exist,
just a picture of sickness,
I hide and I'm whipped,
and I pray my back find me a shiv,
some iceberg
to my ship,
Some wax wing
to melt aspirations
while catching
a glimpse
of what's good,
then I fall and
take
out
all of the wood
down below,
and the snow, and the rain and
the joy,
and the pain, may my landing
take out all who are vain
and insane,
doom
decadence,
phase
out the plain
and the plains,
and the depths,
wrecked
canvases
and blank
stains,
burn my pride, melt my shame...
Creator
eclipsed
by the splash of a crater
and the
size of it's flame
Say my name,
tremble short,
preparing retort
reports to be pointless
your thought's not important
I've floored it,
it's scorched earth
whether or not you conform
or support it,
all soon to be dormant
I'm the informant,
the button,
the nuke,
I'm the bile in the puke,
I am
violence imbued
Styled after you
and a past
and some grass
and the news where
people pass and masses
are shown
in a flash
at noon and at 2,
with some sheen and some bloom.
Saints
not
given their due,
when there's better shots
to find
behind their behinds,
watch a camera push
their
guts through.
I'm born of fuck you
and fuck us and mistrust
A worm to a shrew
deprived of a view
until I realized
I was alive to be food
and
now I decide to be poo
and the end of it all
capsized in some blue
I'm astute
and a newt
I'm the dust of a chute,
and hollow song in a flute,
Shoot
that thing's been crazy
then
I chip at my own mass till I'm paper thin
as ten obituaries
Plaster me with compliments,
I'm quick to be too thick to carry
Strap me to your mast
