yankee scoundrel
treatment applies to new things,
you know, the mint julip of your eye.
it's just natural and you were raised
to like the nape of my neck.
you were born with noise. it rumbles
and scares me. it is next to me now,
sated beast.
i'm wrong and ill.
i never do anything well.
i have too much tact.
i see through your shit.
sorry for just being. i am like
an uphill battle, you know-
bull run but without the hats;
yankee scoundrel.
you know, the mint julip of your eye.
it's just natural and you were raised
to like the nape of my neck.
you were born with noise. it rumbles
and scares me. it is next to me now,
sated beast.
i'm wrong and ill.
i never do anything well.
i have too much tact.
i see through your shit.
sorry for just being. i am like
an uphill battle, you know-
bull run but without the hats;

Treaty
It was once written
When the people
Make a Treaty
With the
Government
It is
The Treaty
That counts
IT Don't Matter
The Terms
So long
As there Are
Terms
It's the goodwill
The Moral Promises
That Matter
And when and if
They Runout
There is
No More Treaty
No matter the words
That Are Written
When the people
Make a Treaty
With the
Government
It is
The Treaty
That counts
IT Don't Matter
The Terms
So long
As there Are
Terms
It's the goodwill
The Moral Promises
That Matter
And when and if
They Runout
There is
No More Treaty
No matter the words
That Are Written

Last time
Some nights I overthink
Some nights its hard to speak
Speak what's on my mind and what I feel in my heart
Leaving you was real it was the loving you that was hard
This is the last time I speak about you
Last time I think about you
Last time I sit here and say there wasn't a me without you
Because there is and there was
I just didn't know who I once was
I lost her amongst all the drugs
I lost her amongst everything I thought the world once was
But I realize now this is the last time
This song wont have a hook ...
Some nights its hard to speak
Speak what's on my mind and what I feel in my heart
Leaving you was real it was the loving you that was hard
This is the last time I speak about you
Last time I think about you
Last time I sit here and say there wasn't a me without you
Because there is and there was
I just didn't know who I once was
I lost her amongst all the drugs
I lost her amongst everything I thought the world once was
But I realize now this is the last time
This song wont have a hook ...

I didn’t play, but I still lost
He left me but I held on with all my might,
I still am, just not holding on as tight.
Why does it still hurt?
Maybe we were destined to fail,
But he walked away from where I stayed,
It was as if the devil set up a game and he played.
HOW did I still loose?
If I didn’t choose, to play?
I still am, just not holding on as tight.
Why does it still hurt?
Maybe we were destined to fail,
But he walked away from where I stayed,
It was as if the devil set up a game and he played.
HOW did I still loose?
If I didn’t choose, to play?

Hold On To Me
If it comes to be.
That you and I cannot be.
Then would you please.
Hold on to me.
One last time.
My crying eyes leave trails of tears.
Crawling down my face to the floor.
I may not be what you wanted here.
But I don't know how to be anything more.
So if it comes to be.
That we aren't meant to be.
Then darling could you please.
Hold on to me.
One last time.
My legs grow weak and I collapse.
My body giving out under the weight.
You could say I wore one too many hats.
And it was a burden that...
That you and I cannot be.
Then would you please.
Hold on to me.
One last time.
My crying eyes leave trails of tears.
Crawling down my face to the floor.
I may not be what you wanted here.
But I don't know how to be anything more.
So if it comes to be.
That we aren't meant to be.
Then darling could you please.
Hold on to me.
One last time.
My legs grow weak and I collapse.
My body giving out under the weight.
You could say I wore one too many hats.
And it was a burden that...

somebody's fool
this is straight from that
strange place;
it's incisors and yarn-
wounds sewn and hearts
split.
I hunt, I call, I live;
no more mysteries exist.
I was the last of my kind-
and I die in defeat.

Cold is the thought that I didn't see this coming
On the edge of fire and ice
Passion caves to the ring of silence
deadening the flow of our love
Warm is my heart, cast to steel
memories drain from the gates
of an embrace that now cannot be replicated
Cold is the thought that I didn't see this coming
Passion caves to the ring of silence
deadening the flow of our love
Warm is my heart, cast to steel
memories drain from the gates
of an embrace that now cannot be replicated
Cold is the thought that I didn't see this coming

Song
I wrote a song
for you, I wrote
nuanced notes
pirouette off
my tongue
dive into Tanqueray
flood away
subtle pains but
your memories take
hostage my lungs.

Plush
the wall, it's solid.
the ear is full of sound
of pounding.
in said relentless ideas.
I have wagered all on you.
it was the best fall since
cashmere in rain.
but it's still leather and
i harden.
poor wretch doesn't.
know.
the ropes.
hands can burn down to my
core. plaster, it hides.
it lives with smooth runs up.
never one to quench;
cool, my face
it traces.
You.

Nice Girl
You commented on your own post twice
From two of your other accounts
Answering the question of "Are you single?"
"Yes I'm single!" you typed
"So single! Such a single Pringle!"
And I cringed a little
You'd always taken pride in being "nice"
In looking the part of the fifties housewife
In taking workout selfies
And in your Snap streak
But where were you when half my family stopped talking to me
And my dad was nearly shot?
It's hard to look at your pink girl power-y feed
What's so empowering about cutting off your friend
Who...

Uncertainty
Where are we going
What lies ahead
We can't take back
The things that were said
Our perceptions have blurred
Our interests have waned
One long last look at you
On a slowly departing train
As we grow older
One of two choices we'll make
To fight the oncoming tide
Or drown in its wake
As for me I'm still riding
The top of the fence
The walk is a tense one
Filled with suspense
All I know is I love you
And that will never change
Please take my hand
And relieve this aching pain
What lies ahead
We can't take back
The things that were said
Our perceptions have blurred
Our interests have waned
One long last look at you
On a slowly departing train
As we grow older
One of two choices we'll make
To fight the oncoming tide
Or drown in its wake
As for me I'm still riding
The top of the fence
The walk is a tense one
Filled with suspense
All I know is I love you
And that will never change
Please take my hand
And relieve this aching pain

Extravagance
fire & it brought me more;
more extravengance that I ever knew-
I knew it all, the riches of cheek;
the extravagance and many ways-
the choice was easy and the
foreseen repeat of your heart forever.
but below me-
you are heaven and
i crash down, down to the base;
the last one of my kind,
refusal is death.
it was called in.
there is a mistress,
and she sells ghastly hands;
decks shuffled wrong;
extravagance and many ways-
the choice was easy and
foreseen.
