Mono
we stroke different walls in half-light.
fear falls in staggered breaths.
questions dart through skies
like summer swallows. i am
claustrophobic; agoraphobic
in the same stale town. suddenly i
remember how it all once meant
something to me. this complex
desire to disappear in one fixed place.
since winter, black has advanced
closer. i swallow that moon down
from the gold goblet of the sun.
fear falls in staggered breaths.
questions dart through skies
like summer swallows. i am
claustrophobic; agoraphobic
in the same stale town. suddenly i
remember how it all once meant

Sands of Time
When can I walk on the sands of time
Let it sift through the soul
Leaving footprints behind
For the wind to sweep away?
I fell on the sand
To have it burn me and scorch
From past regrets and remorse
Downy wings try to erupt
From leathered and weathered skin
To go up in a plume of smoke
The sands of time have no feeling
They do not judge
They are just and we must walk our path
Let it sift through the soul
Leaving footprints behind
For the wind to sweep away?
I fell on the sand
To have it burn me and scorch
From past regrets and remorse
Downy wings try to erupt
From leathered and weathered skin
To go up in a plume of smoke
The sands of time have no feeling
They do not judge
They are just and we must walk our path

Wonder
sometimes I wonder
is it real?
everything I think
or feel
sometimes it seems
like a mist
evaporating
with a kiss
of realizing
deep within
all is one
awake, sleeping
in between
above, below
moving fast
or going slow...
most of everything
is space
in molecules
electrons race
through the emptiness
I feel
wondering whether
it is real
is it real?
everything I think
or feel
sometimes it seems
like a mist
evaporating
with a kiss
of realizing
deep within
all is one
awake, sleeping
in between
above, below
moving fast
or going slow...
most of everything
is space
in molecules
electrons race
through the emptiness
I feel
wondering whether
it is real

this darkness isn't big enough for two
I don't want to be alone with you
in the dark tonight
trading scars and spilling darkness
like cheap cask wine
because alcoholics
don't buy nice things
and our souls don't know
how to aim for top shelf self-destruction
We are discarded art
half drawn and torn in strange places
I tried to tape you back together
but you wrapped me up
in your co-dependence
and I was too lonely to cut you off
because like every drug
that's picked me up to let me fall
you got inside and gave me something
I...
in the dark tonight
trading scars and spilling darkness
like cheap cask wine
because alcoholics
don't buy nice things
and our souls don't know
how to aim for top shelf self-destruction
We are discarded art
half drawn and torn in strange places
I tried to tape you back together
but you wrapped me up
in your co-dependence
and I was too lonely to cut you off
because like every drug
that's picked me up to let me fall
you got inside and gave me something
I...

genie in a bottle...flipside
world at my fingers
struggling to see clearly
it's a sweats & braids kinda day
feeling a little deflated
a bit like vapor
trying to decide
whether to fight
or fade
not committed
to either
do not rub
out of order
struggling to see clearly
it's a sweats & braids kinda day
feeling a little deflated
a bit like vapor
trying to decide
whether to fight
or fade
not committed
to either
do not rub
