PART OF LIFE
A MAN COULD NOT MAKE MISTAKES
IF HE DOES NOT WORK
BUT A MAN WHO WORKS HIS CRAFT
WILL ALWAYS MAKE MISTAKES
IT REMINDS US THAT WE ARE ALIVE
IF HE DOES NOT WORK
BUT A MAN WHO WORKS HIS CRAFT
WILL ALWAYS MAKE MISTAKES
IT REMINDS US THAT WE ARE ALIVE

As if that were the case
If you fall in love
who will pick you up then?
If you make love
who will undo it afterwards?
Bang! Bang!
Shooting stars and stray bullets!
The universe sleeps the sleep of angels...
who will pick you up then?
If you make love
who will undo it afterwards?
Bang! Bang!
Shooting stars and stray bullets!
The universe sleeps the sleep of angels...

Cracks
Spiders thread themselves in my life
They hide in dark places
Under blankets
Behind paintings
Inside dead pages
Between all the cracks breaking me
They hide in dark places
Under blankets
Behind paintings
Inside dead pages
Between all the cracks breaking me

Poem
I have this ache
It must be ancient I guess
I climax when
I tell you
What goes
There
Electronically seductive
In this dark space
I call
My head
Sortounded by curlies
And stuff.
It must be ancient I guess
I climax when
I tell you
What goes
There
Electronically seductive
In this dark space
I call
My head

My worthless song
My worthless song
Is good for nothing
But I keep trying it any way
Because inside of me
There is a voice that is telling me
Please don’t give up
Is good for nothing
But I keep trying it any way
Because inside of me
There is a voice that is telling me
Please don’t give up

Not happy at all
the jug
the prick
the dick
the pig
and the park
...
and also the whore
who gave birth to me...
...
and everything you can remember.
...
the pink
the park
the perks of being born
a man in a man's world.

Traveling Through
As my mind reflects
voices from within
tell me to soul search
a personal energy
that resonates
changing my perspective
as multiple beings
alert me when my time will expire

Maybe
listening to tingling chandeliers
softly spoken whispering minuets
a symphony in the moonlight
melancholy arabesque
on blades of grass, maybe
just a broken heart
