The Price of Entry
Once the price of entry
has been
paid,
there are
no returns,
only recalls
for injury or death.

Sadly (@@)
There was this girl from Sudbury
Who wanted to get away in a hurry
Packed up a bunch of clothes
Too many she chose
Also snapped an item furry
Thus the cat died, suffocated, sadly.

What Shakes My Heart?
Buttercups?
Lover’s Lips?
Gentle Hips?
Sacred Sips?
I’m slipping, I’m sliding,
I’m losing grips
Losing to Death-Grips
Is this my heart?
Shaking in my hand?
Am I a man?
What is there to understand?
Lover’s Lips?
Gentle Hips?
Sacred Sips?
I’m slipping, I’m sliding,
I’m losing grips
Losing to Death-Grips
Is this my heart?
Shaking in my hand?
Am I a man?
What is there to understand?

That line of too far, too close, too much
I watch it recede
in my rear view
again
in my rear view
again

Lying
I lied to myself
All those years.
Pretentious.
Super inflated
Ego
Based on zero.
Then I was mad
At everyboy,
Mad at the World
Because the
House of Cards
Toppled and the
Ego was smashed
To nothing
By Reality.
All those years.
Pretentious.
Super inflated
Ego
Based on zero.
Then I was mad
At everyboy,
Mad at the World
Because the
House of Cards
Toppled and the
Ego was smashed
To nothing
By Reality.

Feeling Great
Bad days, glass transparency.
Laying down, oppressed reality
Mastered soul, surrounded.
Laughable a distance confounded.
Laying down, oppressed reality
Mastered soul, surrounded.
Laughable a distance confounded.

Monochrome Mind
Dark blank black eyes
is it not clear what you see in the mirror.
Monochrome numb naething mind
is it not what we left behind.
is it not clear what you see in the mirror.
Monochrome numb naething mind
is it not what we left behind.

Transient
I can't be angry;
you couldn't have known that door
led straight to my heart.
I opened it wide, trusting;
you never planned on staying.
you couldn't have known that door
led straight to my heart.
I opened it wide, trusting;

What Would I Do Differently?
Were we once beautiful in silky skin?
We grasped more than we held.

We grasped more than we held.

mercy killing
I don't know where
all my years have
gone
-but if you are out
and about and run
into them-
please let them know
I miss them and
ask if they would
please come
home
thank you
all my years have
gone
-but if you are out
and about and run
into them-
please let them know
I miss them and
ask if they would
please come
home
thank you
