Riding the current
There's no night like tonight
They're all different
I went out there
I could taste the air
The power lines buzzing
I became part of the current
Like I knew exactly what was supposed to happen
So when the pig ran the stop sign and nearly ran my ass over,
my heart didn't skip once
I watch the man across the street watch me
He's plugged in too
We're both riding the current
It's not paranoia
It's just being on
Connected by the eyes
The eyes flash like knives
In the 7-11
I watch the man behind the counter ...

Cruel World
We were thrown together
Working a temp job we were both overqualified for.
He, a recent college grad soon to begin a master's
And me, who had gotten my bachelor's
somewhere around the time his parents were in kindergarten.
We talked about everything
Movies
Music
Politics
What the future of the world might hold
What America would be like in fifty years
Even ten.
It turned depressing from there.
Cruel World, young guy said, shaking his head
How long have you known that? I ask

Mouse in my attic
I have a mouse living in my attic
She crawled all night making static
Got someone who is a mice terminatic
He said “you have two lovers living in your attic”
Now that is definitely very problematic
Although he didn’t sound very dramatic
I also don’t want to be melodramatic
But they shouldn’t be living in my attic
“They should die” and I wasn’t very diplomatic
I’m also a guy who is not very romantic
No one should be living in my attic
Not love, nor anyone who is the least sympathetic

Deserted
Sonoran desert
sparse like you
unsentimental wishes
alluring invitation
cancelled party

Live for today, for you may die tomorrow
Nothing matters, no one matters, all of us will die
No one exists here on purpose, reality a lie
Trying to put meaning in your life
but there is no grand design
You're searching for a spark that doesn't exist
Your empty feelings and morals dismissed
If you died
no one would cry
There is no way that in infinite worlds your actions have any meaning
We are just atoms floating and splitting
creating and destroying
over and over, for no real reason
no explanation given
There is no grand plan or purpose for you
You might as well...

Ultimately Nullified
All is ruination supreme
and life a bitter joke
in desolation nightmare scream
on universal folk...
as if in horror cinema
whose cast must suffer stunts
where matter force in minima
means bearing real brunts.
Thus for sure reality sucks;
a clock just winding down
away from youth and thrilling fucks
like verbs reduced to noun.
And so to death we modify,
even during Yule,
regifting fodder when we die;
with ourselves as gruel.

Smile! You're In A Box!
Am I a joke to you?
I want to see you smile,
And moan for me.
Lisa Simpson on a sax.
Paid for and taken out back.
At the club tonight.
Haven't been in a while.
Stay with me,
So I can make you smile!
Stop the jokes and moan a little more.
Sex brings the facts,
The whore does the chores.
There's no free country,
Music is just a style.
The rhythm is you.
The riddle is the box.
"A prison for you and me."
Jack and Jill on the sax.
Let me hear you sing!
I'm a creep seeking...
I want to see you smile,
And moan for me.

There is no light without darkness! There is no gift without neglect. There is no happiness without sadness. There is no memory, if you don't forget.... :P i can feel it :D ;)

Submission.
Well, it’s finally happened.
I’m officially Life’s bitch.
Its plan to dig its claws into me,
went without a hitch.
Its firm grasp only tightening,
and
won’t let me go,
like a blood binding contract.
it took ownership of my tattered soul.
Why not someone else?
I have literally nothing to offer.
I try to do good, keep my head down,
living a mundane life,
so why bother?
I’ve felt the heaviness on my soul
from such a tender age..
how foolish of me to think I’d leave this lifetime ...

Appreciation
Just by being
you induce the want in me
And isn't that the way
it should be?
We jump through hoops
to impress
to convince
often it feels like a sales pitch
to be loved or admired
And it is complete bullshit
If you can't be enjoyed
as you are,
you are not truly being seen
you induce the want in me
And isn't that the way
it should be?
We jump through hoops
to impress
to convince
often it feels like a sales pitch
to be loved or admired
And it is complete bullshit
If you can't be enjoyed
as you are,
you are not truly being seen

Sanity or Insanity
Illusion or reality
Sane or insanity
Demons running through my veins
There's nothing I would ever change
Network damage - Connection Split
Input - Output - Complete Shit
Illusion or reality
Sane or insanity
Harsh stories & poems run through my brain
Inside my body, a madman reigns
It's my reality
It's my illusion
It's my burning pain
Never one for a New Years Resolution
The one thing I'll never refuse to give up
Is to screw with people's minds
Ya know....Fuck shit up!! ...
