My other self
There's a boy I used to glimpse,
with punk cut, black dyed hair
and morning stubble,
sitting thin in a mohair jumper and jeans,
his voice was cigarettes
through nicotine stained fingers
that pointed out the freedom of self belief
and dole queue haze.
I walk past him some days
and snatch the bottle from his hand
whisper in his ear of the secrets
of unkind years and the change
that is yet to come, rage in his face
with mute expressions of regret.
I'd smooth out my Captains map
and plot him a different...
with punk cut, black dyed hair
and morning stubble,
sitting thin in a mohair jumper and jeans,
his voice was cigarettes
through nicotine stained fingers
that pointed out the freedom of self belief
and dole queue haze.
I walk past him some days
and snatch the bottle from his hand
whisper in his ear of the secrets
of unkind years and the change
that is yet to come, rage in his face

Shattered Visages
I am broken clockwork internals
clogged like this fancy fucking pen
An empty canvas once adorned in
design made new again
This talent so worthless in the only
eye that drives this goddamn shit
Why hold on to the dreamer when
you say it's just a nightmare that begins
Not settled for any sort of bargain my love
your worth more than cost admits
Once wasn't an illusion, I was always
baffled and enthralled, knee dip in shit
See there's silver in every terrible
storms lining, frankly you...
clogged like this fancy fucking pen
An empty canvas once adorned in
design made new again
This talent so worthless in the only
eye that drives this goddamn shit
Why hold on to the dreamer when
you say it's just a nightmare that begins
Not settled for any sort of bargain my love
your worth more than cost admits
Once wasn't an illusion, I was always
baffled and enthralled, knee dip in shit
See there's silver in every terrible
storms lining, frankly you...

There are Times
Sometimes
I’d like to pull back an intimate moment
Things get said
Go wrong
You’d like to get them back
The test of time however
Provides cover
It passes
You move on
That’s how love goes
Moment to movement
Life in motion
Pretty damn good
I’d like to pull back an intimate moment
Things get said
Go wrong
You’d like to get them back
The test of time however
Provides cover
It passes
You move on
That’s how love goes
Moment to movement
Life in motion
Pretty damn good

utterances
I close the door on bad thoughts
angry with their presentation
fueled by hurt I lash out
internal wars, covert engagement
atrocities inflicted on my sacredness
I am cruelest to myself
I look at myself as a misfit with an artistic bent
vicious words animate in the darkness
then dance on my self esteem until I speak them
once the thought is uttered I feel bad
with thoughts of what am I doing?
right or wrong I'm letting the void win
infernal misgivings I don't want to be like that
ugly to the core I pick up...
angry with their presentation

TORTURES ONE CAN'T ESCAPE
TORTURES ONE CAN'T ESCAPE
My Lord, l want to be quite clean, and live
my precious life with laughter pure and loud
and not to shun the men, and be alone
weighing my sins that rack my heart and mind.
My Lord, please save my heart from evil acts
that l may do unconscious of their woe.
These acts return to burden me with guilt
I cannot bear as they have fearful weight.
When l would like to read a precious book,
I hate to feel my sins sharing my look.
I read but useless; nothing l absorb
as my sins can picpocket all my gain. ...

Kiss Never Was
Tell me how much more shall I wait
to be apart is that just our fate
good fortunes passing by me
cruelly deny me
but I if kissed you
My aspirations did a little dance
wrongly deluded in hopes of romance
never felt you near
a presence imagined so dear
If could kiss you
Promises you made tear my heart
false premises tore me apart
someday I might be healing
my trust that you were stealing
for I never kissed you
A lesson one day I might learn
for present my soul will burn
break...
