Remember music
oh I do
I hope it inspires you
as it used to
All those years ago
when you
Didn't have the
vocabulary
spread out in front
of you
and I'm sorry
I wish the clouds weren't so
heavy with worry.
I hope somebody comes and
clears that up.

So drop your weapon
Neither of us
will crawl out
of dead stars
but you insist
on wearing
escapism
like hunters
wearing out
their own
fur.

This is what it feels like
Before
I met you
everything
remained
in the air
I always
mastered
every deal
made to it
the way
nothing
came
close.
Sometimes
it angers me
how deeply
you pierce
into my skin
in the way
you remind me
I must sleep
in my bed,
in the way
you remind me
I should be
less like air
in the way
I want to grow
every broken
down root,
be less
violent to
my own
soul.

_______
He liked nails
scraping over
his cheeks
bound in
harnesses
of double
coin knots,
his breath
count always
began to
lessen
as I let
silver wheels
cruise down
his spine
in slow
motion.
Agata
______
She always
let me decide
what to wear
her adrenaline
would always
be rushing
each time
I turned up,
her thighs
indulged
in sailor
knots
tied up ...

Gullible shores.
The hostages hauled away into captivity.
A-shore,languid they lay.
Several physicians with known treatments,couldn't treat
the spasms,a fit of tricks,of gradual intimacy.
Intelligent enough to defeat the gullible shores.
Alive with possibilities.
A sacred state of space emulates,
the waves of hidden,long ago stories,where rarity grows.

Ink Blot Reflections
I climb this mountain in circles
Existing within a vacuum
Tunnel vision, is there a light at the end
Trying to break even with the will to survive
Till I can come out on top and buy back the breath in my lungs
Undertows creep in with the weight of secrets that pull me under
Trivial storms, it doesn’t rain on me the way it does on those closer to the thunder
Ripples in floods
Mind sick utterances
I mask my heart in riddles to make it more appealing
If only you knew the ugly behind the beautiful
When all that inspires something...
Existing within a vacuum
Tunnel vision, is there a light at the end
Trying to break even with the will to survive
Till I can come out on top and buy back the breath in my lungs
Undertows creep in with the weight of secrets that pull me under
Trivial storms, it doesn’t rain on me the way it does on those closer to the thunder
Ripples in floods
Mind sick utterances
I mask my heart in riddles to make it more appealing
If only you knew the ugly behind the beautiful
When all that inspires something...

Protected words
Digging feverishly,
in the valley of the 'not to be exhumed,used.'
They didn't take the curse,
serious,seriously.
White as a sheet,within weeks became weak.
Very mysteriously,these greedy men had to unfortunately
learn from their stupidity.
Utilised,impress the words,upon imbued,
with the source,these magical forces,sat upon,
Sat upon measurements.
Keep digging,feverishly digging.
And all your dreams will come true.
Like a coin, the same but not.
Womb...
in the valley of the 'not to be exhumed,used.'
They didn't take the curse,
serious,seriously.
White as a sheet,within weeks became weak.
Very mysteriously,these greedy men had to unfortunately
learn from their stupidity.

And all your dreams will come true.

Sherlock Holmes: The Adventure of the Scarlet Star
- Sherlock Holmes: The Adventure of the Scarlet Star -
It was in early autumn, on a foggy London day if ever there was one, when I was attempting without any real or proper success to tidy up ever so slightly the living space of my dear friend and partner in the business of detection, mister Sherlock Holmes. He sat glumly in his favorite chair, staring out of the window that overlooked the street below, smoking his pipe and muttering things to himself that were just out of my hearing range. “Leave those papers there, Watson!” he suddenly exclaimed, and I felt a slight amazement...

You are a stick
Of new gum
Watermelon
Flavor crystals
Never wears out
Always fun to chew
Get lost in the giant
Bubbles
FLOAT AND POP

FOREVERNINE
Solo so low
But this pain makes me so high
Know why?
Push everyone aside and listen to LoFi
Did not pay my phone bill
So can I chill
and get the WiFi
password
So I continue writting all my waxwork
Promise this is almost the last verse
Nothing is not stopping me
Unless anomaly comes properly
claim to my human property
Then probably
Drop the peace
I'm sorry no apologies
Life is a gamble
So when its time to leave
Im going with hand fulls
So low is solo to rot in gold
But so high
We don't...
But this pain makes me so high
Know why?
Push everyone aside and listen to LoFi
Did not pay my phone bill

So I continue writting all my waxwork
Promise this is almost the last verse
Nothing is not stopping me
Unless anomaly comes properly
claim to my human property

Life is a gamble
So when its time to leave
Im going with hand fulls
So low is solo to rot in gold
But so high
We don't...

Home-made.
A home-made desire.
A horny,corny attitude on view.
A pea soup liar,
once in mouth,
no need to repeatedly chew.
Some smelt,felt,mashed potatoes.
Consumed by slick flora butter,
melting bright yellow,
trickle down chin forever.
A home-made desire.
A questionable digested of
pea soup,horny corny,mashed potatoes
and home-made kneaded bread.
And enjoy,with our compliments.

Flavour less.
Assorted flavours.
I'm Better known as plain.
Assorted flavours.
I'm known by my smell.
Plain crisps flavoured,Jane smell.
Although I prefer,"Salt and Vinegar."
But I'm still known as plain Jane.
