If Pain Dripped Like Time Ticked
With each ticking of the clock
A drop of pain drains down
Pooling around my body in flood
An island in my own lifeblood
All I can see is the clock ticking
It's echoing booming clack
Dripping drops draining fast
I feel I may no longer last
Tick Drip Tick Drip
Tick Drip Tick Drip
Tick Drip Tick Drip
The Ghosts start dancing
The bells start ringing
The heavens open
My heart starts singing ...
The parade of dead dreams shuffles past ...
All In chains and ankle irons
In regular procession...
A drop of pain drains down
Pooling around my body in flood
An island in my own lifeblood
All I can see is the clock ticking
It's echoing booming clack
Dripping drops draining fast
I feel I may no longer last
Tick Drip Tick Drip
Tick Drip Tick Drip
Tick Drip Tick Drip
The Ghosts start dancing
The bells start ringing
The heavens open
My heart starts singing ...
The parade of dead dreams shuffles past ...
All In chains and ankle irons
In regular procession...

Cold Moon
In between the deep breaths of life
In between the vibrations of the universe
In between the fractals of time itself
In between our very human cells
Perfectly ... within a moment of free prose ...
There is us ...
under a cold moon ...
In between the vibrations of the universe
In between the fractals of time itself
In between our very human cells
Perfectly ... within a moment of free prose ...
There is us ...
under a cold moon ...

Best Laid Plans
And I tapped out
My lonely tune
Manic & lovely
Like a chef’s knife
Chopping parsley
On a cold flat board
And my fan was a hero
As I slapped it into submission
Whirring too proud
And every mouthful
Was more than a liar
I cynical nonetheless
And fires burned
Far away from me
Except my trusty oven
Crumbs fall & hide
Am I that scary?
Gathering some of them in
Unsweeping them
From under whose carpet
A little for the birds
They peck & call ...
My lonely tune

The Ice Moon Of Saturn
As i wander off
To the land of fae
Whence i shall fly
Under a moonlit sky
And dance in circles
With my fairy friends
And ride on the backs
Of dragons
Warmed by their firey breath
As their cinders
Flow through the air
Like glowing fireflies
As their roar
Like rumbling thunder
Quakes the Earth
And i will feel free again
As i admire the magic all around me
Engulfed by its' majesty
As i escape these earthly shackles
That bind me
As i kiss
The wet, and watery wind
And...
To the land of fae
Whence i shall fly
Under a moonlit sky
And dance in circles
With my fairy friends
And ride on the backs

Warmed by their firey breath
As their cinders
Flow through the air
Like glowing fireflies
As their roar
Like rumbling thunder
Quakes the Earth
And i will feel free again
As i admire the magic all around me
Engulfed by its' majesty
As i escape these earthly shackles
That bind me
As i kiss
The wet, and watery wind

Me & My Mirror Is Me
I get the sensation of a life time intimate
And intrinsic observation of my appearance,
As I lay down my vision unto papers,
Drawing paths of dreams I once dreamed,
Catching leaves falling off from trees,
And birds singing in choir as the sun burn my eyes and skin
As I tempt to reach my gaze to where I can see the waves of branches,
When breezes pierce through trunks build and held strong by centuries,
As I breath scent of the living arising amid the sky and bring green to the eyes of bees
And flowers blooming as their nature has...
And intrinsic observation of my appearance,
As I lay down my vision unto papers,
Drawing paths of dreams I once dreamed,
Catching leaves falling off from trees,
And birds singing in choir as the sun burn my eyes and skin
As I tempt to reach my gaze to where I can see the waves of branches,
When breezes pierce through trunks build and held strong by centuries,
As I breath scent of the living arising amid the sky and bring green to the eyes of bees
And flowers blooming as their nature has...

In The Midst
The wind out paces
The cold unforgiving ground
Freezing itself
As my heart it surrounds
The cold unforgiving ground
Freezing itself
As my heart it surrounds

When I Used To Bleed Music
I used to noodle my 6-string for hours
Dripping platinum and gold on the carpet
To no one but myself night after night
Drinking in it's sweet surrendered dulcet
Strumming louder and louder faster
Accenting and pumping the beat along
So fast Id cut my skin and bruise my hand
Wizardly charms rang off sure and long
The music made whole by my passion
Ash body and rosewood neck caressed
Thought to note and back again and again
Finding that perfect tone in frets perfectly kissed
The buildup to the...

OBSESSED
To be has got to be
When urges defines my will
A single mind was born
Hysterical
— Fostering frenzied desire
And I scratched till I bleed
Sated yet discontented
And it starts all over
Again
— Greed married my reasoning
When urges defines my will
A single mind was born
Hysterical
— Fostering frenzied desire
And I scratched till I bleed
Sated yet discontented
And it starts all over
Again
— Greed married my reasoning

Another one?
Aethereal cognizance
Widens the view
Of tear stained
Happenstance
Pelting my pillow
And my heart
In equal measure
Time to make a new start

Untethered
Floating in a sea of stars
On a bed of a nebula
In a house of galaxies
Caught in a city of universes
Floating free
Untethered ...
Adrift on the vast ... empty ... cold ...
Sea ...

Faux
I lie awake in dream or faeried tale unfolding
My head resting against your warm breast
Being lulled by the steady beat of your love
Breathing in the reality of us in silent unrest
My head resting against your warm breast
Being lulled by the steady beat of your love
Breathing in the reality of us in silent unrest

Survivor
They always warn you about the men across the street, or the predators lurking at the parks with invisible puppies.
But they never warn you about the ones across the world, who can still hold so much power.
I'd met him when I was only thirteen, and now that I think of it again he must've been twenty.
I wish that someone would've noticed what was happening to me, or I would've said something.
Because even now, I still am afraid of him. When I have my bad days it is hard for me not to imagine that he isn't lurking around every dark corner of my house.
My stomach...
