Sugar-coated Serenade
As the lyre meets my ear
A familiar tune begins to play;
I've heard this song before
But I listen anyway
A familiar tune begins to play;
I've heard this song before
But I listen anyway

The Ocean Is Disgusting
You got drunk and did
Something and now a
New thing was
Invented
Pink hats, yellow
T-shirts, and
Ray-Bans
There’s nothing new
Under the
Appalachians and
The sun was burning in
My urethra because
I was trying to
Pass another
Kidney stone
After another
Drunken night
In Manhattan
Beach
So you’re the
Other bitch
That betrayed
Me. Why am
I not surprised?
Come back when
I say it’s okay to
Come back to
Me
...

Misspent Youth
Don't fear the Grim Reaper
Fear what's around us
When you look a little deeper
Go through life, carve a crater
You've got what it takes
You know you have, ain't cha?!
Misspent youth
All I'm after is the truth
I'm gonna need proof
Misspent youth
Feel like a marked man since birth
Waiting for a slip-up
Down on the pavement
The vultures erupt
Tomahawk missile
Read the signs and the reasons
Money makes my head go around
All scarred up with lesions
Misspent youth
All I'm...
Fear what's around us
When you look a little deeper
Go through life, carve a crater
You've got what it takes
You know you have, ain't cha?!
Misspent youth
All I'm after is the truth
I'm gonna need proof
Misspent youth
Feel like a marked man since birth
Waiting for a slip-up
Down on the pavement
The vultures erupt
Tomahawk missile
Read the signs and the reasons
Money makes my head go around
All scarred up with lesions
Misspent youth
All I'm...

amidst the ruins of paradise
the echoes of memories
rattling around their cavity
the space now deserted
devoid of what it once contained
…no...
…no…
not contained
there were never any restraints
free to come
and then to go
it was never a one-way road
but the hollow niches
all yet remaining
where you once nestled
warming me from within
silently staking your claim
with caresses & whispers
and sweet tender kisses
now ache
you built your hollow castle
upon the foundation of my heart
and those vacant places
still...
rattling around their cavity
the space now deserted
devoid of what it once contained
…no...
…no…

there were never any restraints
free to come

it was never a one-way road

and sweet tender kisses

you built your hollow castle
upon the foundation of my heart
and those vacant places

This silly ass shit between
GROWN MUTHA FUCKS
I mean what the fuck
Seriously?
GROW THE FUCK UP!
Cause truth be told
Dude, YOU…
Could have
Left me where I the fuck was at!
IN MY OWN SHIT
PAYING MY OWN SHIT
Not needing
ANYONE
for Shit,
Well…
Except the THROB
Between my legs…
but, that’s off topic
Real talk,
Selections are
BOUNTIFUL
For the both of us
Miles away from home, ...

two ways of looking at it ..
I was a fly upon the wall
but there's nothing I can tell you
I was quite obviously on
the wrong side ..

Instilling Shadows into your broken moon
There is no sussurus
bleeding from your
hollowness....
no warmth whimpers
in your boreal fulcrum,
just transference
of rabid semina nigra
swirling in lacerated eddies
from the exhale
of your lepidote morpheme
concordat,
I have hung up
my acumen
castrated
my juste-milieu;
renounced
my bend
into a free fall
break~
complicit,
I've become-
a lapdog,
...

echo science with my art

Enoch
I asked her what she wanted to be
She whispered..."Alive"
I stood before my father
Blood drenched hands
As the ground swallowed the body
Of a friend that I've outgrown
"Like father like son" I said
But I never wanted this
Being dead,
Just seemed so much easier
I poured the puppy dog tears on my mother
Teased her endlessly in my mind
What a manipulative fiend I've become...
Running from my own hatred
Until it turned into laughter
What good has that gotten me?
I lust for blood...
She whispered..."Alive"
I stood before my father
Blood drenched hands
As the ground swallowed the body
Of a friend that I've outgrown
"Like father like son" I said
But I never wanted this
Being dead,
Just seemed so much easier
I poured the puppy dog tears on my mother
Teased her endlessly in my mind
What a manipulative fiend I've become...
Running from my own hatred
Until it turned into laughter
What good has that gotten me?
I lust for blood...

Mind Your Business
Mind your business,
Do not bother yourself
With people's trouble.
Mind your business,
Do not listen when people
Complain of their struggle.
Mind your business,
Do not settle a quarrell,
So on your head doesn't land a bottle.
Mind your business,
Do not help if it is
Not part of your hustle.
Mind your business,
Nobody really cares,
They want you gullible.
Mind your business,
Do not add more,
You have a lot to handle.
Mind your business,
The narcissist's favourite...
Do not bother yourself
With people's trouble.
Mind your business,
Do not listen when people
Complain of their struggle.
Mind your business,
Do not settle a quarrell,
So on your head doesn't land a bottle.
Mind your business,
Do not help if it is
Not part of your hustle.
Mind your business,
Nobody really cares,
They want you gullible.
Mind your business,
Do not add more,
You have a lot to handle.
Mind your business,
The narcissist's favourite...

[your creation myths]
your creation myths
humility ego's guise
nothing but worm food
is the truth of what you are
so save your preaching for rubes
