sacred bond
weeps the dawn and the brotherhood of men
culted fascination between souls of the immortal realm
feigning loyalty, forgotten faith, stirs
rising up within me
stalwalt judgement and swayed truth
in sync with the alchemy of the moment
desire of the ancient way
one comes forth from the shadows
and I am beside myself with grief
hinder not the way with mischief
it is understood there is a chasm between us
our bond broken
a blood oath taken between brothers
lay waste over a woman
the womb did trouble ...

2001 Space Oddity (2024 Insanity)
2001 space oddity (2024 insanity)
2024 living backwards
Backwards is forward
Up is down in conspiracy
Lies rise truth hides
Neighbor now my enemy
Not from anything we’ve done
The bond between us hope it doesn’t die
You’re surfing in a tin suit waves of absurdity
You start to turn and listen
You don’t listen to me drowned in conspiracy
You believe the lies he sells
He makes you hate me and you gladly oblige
You gladly fund his legal defense fund
When he has billions but...

You are taller than I remember
We both grew up,
and I do not recognize you.
You do not recognize me
either.
I wonder if you
remember us
like I
do.
I see us,
at the kitchen table,
the clock ticking
a reminder of sleep.
We talked about
shared secrets,
favorite colors,
and how to be better.
It was a long time ago.
We were so small.
My room was green.
Yours was blue.
That table is gone now.
The house too.
Nothing made it out of there intact.
Not even us.
But I still...
and I do not recognize you.
You do not recognize me
either.
I wonder if you
remember us
like I
do.

a kitchen sinking drama
he has a boat
and keeps asking
me to go out
on it, I’m sorry,
but I won’t, mate,
I don’t float
and keeps asking
me to go out
on it, I’m sorry,
but I won’t, mate,

Little Doe
Oh, little doe,
I see how you struggle.
So refective of my own.
I wish I could do more.
I wish I could protect you.
I want to save you.
Oh, little doe,
beware of sharp teeth
as the bite of a wolf is unforgiving.
I do my best to warn you,
but it's from sharp teeth
the warnings come.
Oh, little doe,
I hope you do not suffer
this same fate of mine.
I do my best,
but sometimes my jaw aches,
to close on soft limbs.
Oh, little doe,
you are as kind as you are soft. ...

Proud
You’ll always be my little brother
A man who toured the States
Dropping bass lines like no other
It’s your presence that resonates
Getting choked up by memories
Crying while laughing out loud
Music gifted us social remedies
Most of all you made me proud
A man who toured the States
Dropping bass lines like no other
It’s your presence that resonates
Getting choked up by memories
Crying while laughing out loud
Music gifted us social remedies
Most of all you made me proud

notorius
again I find myself coming forth from deep darkness and chains of guilt
no one can free me from my pain my scarred terrain is evident
I spent a millenia brewing you spent the centuries finding happiness
shining in the dark places it could be found
we are finally free together brother but it seems time has changed us both
you have so many places to be adoring faces to behold
still I find you coming here from time to time imploring why I don't join you
I consider it but your entourage makes it clear i'm suspect
even with the Father I am...

Last House On the Right
There's a family at the end of the block
Inside the house the father is raping his son
The kid is screaming because it hurts
The house is burning with hot love
Daddy is now murdering this kid
It's Ok because it's not me
Inside the house the father is raping his son
The kid is screaming because it hurts
The house is burning with hot love
Daddy is now murdering this kid
It's Ok because it's not me

Lu
pride cometh before the fall, and boy did I ever fall into your thrall again
Lu you always find me, in any outfit you know me, we are soulmated
together we are trouble
we are told, I was imprisoned you were let go that's what happened,
I heard
I'm suppose to live in the moment
and not listen you take over my thoughts
not of the ancient past
still. I keep recoiling from it
I love Him and I know you do too
but you've never done time in the containment unit
and you side with Him in private and with the men
He shames...

No One Stays Out Of The Family
This is
the house that
Guido
Costello once called
home before a thug
named Dominic The
Butcher
Costello
found him.

Angels
denying my pleasures of the flesh that I have oft indulged in
because I am reminded of my purpose yet again
on which I first embarked on with a vow
the men awaken me with truth
what's up man did you come just for the sex, drugs and rock n rolll
do you even really remember us yet?
shame fills my being and I remember our promise to each other
cursing at my guard while imprisoned I vowed
I would get even for this
admitting my fears I rise
beaten down while in confinement
and questioned night and day until my release
...
