rain.
At arms length
feeling disengaged
Mind unusual with hints of strange
Disappointments tinged of disillusion
Yet another cheap suit of confusion
Cowardice twists to neatly placate
Watch and read
No such thing as predestined fate
scattered-strewn
I watch broken pieces soar
Sailing vastly through
To a found of deary rainy shores
A glutton for punishment
Repeats this damned inner chime
Thoughts, tumble to tear
Through...

Thankful for you
A hard time for me
but I am thankful for you
for all that you are
but I am thankful for you
for all that you are

Godot
C'est en attendant Godot
A l'arrêt du bus
Comme il a déjà été fait
(Ou tout près)
Mais au différent qu'aujourd'hui
Il y a une petite neige
Mais on attend quand même
Ou le bus
Ou les surprises de la vie
Ou le moment du dernier soupir.
A l'arrêt du bus

Bloom Doom
Grew up the youngest
of three blooming brothers
Spreading my petals
everywhere I went
but trouble kept
getting my petals
stuck because of my
Oldest brother's problems
But now my petals are
holding because of
this frenzy shit the
goverments/spooks created
I am tired of this and me
being my Oldest Brother's Keeper
So plesse let my petals go do
Their blooming
of three blooming brothers
Spreading my petals
everywhere I went
but trouble kept
getting my petals
stuck because of my
Oldest brother's problems
But now my petals are
holding because of
this frenzy shit the
goverments/spooks created
I am tired of this and me
being my Oldest Brother's Keeper
So plesse let my petals go do
Their blooming

Hide not the Truth
I’m screaming for love
It feels like abuse
Sometimes the sorrow makes me to close
To everything I cannot know
If I forget how to love
Then hide not the truth I forget
It feels like abuse
Sometimes the sorrow makes me to close
To everything I cannot know
If I forget how to love
Then hide not the truth I forget

Ice Skating On The Moon
Left the earth
on the onset
Tired of all the
blazing sunsets
Left one early
afternoon
Grabbed the
tallest ladder
Climbed higher
and higher
Grew darker
and darker
Looked up and
found my destiny
Now you'll find me
Ice skating on the moon
Falling stars
coasting beside me
drizzled little secrets
bearing a beaming clear
ice cracked dress
named and styled
as an ice empress
Never melting
with light blue ...
on the onset
Tired of all the
blazing sunsets
Left one early
afternoon
Grabbed the
tallest ladder
Climbed higher
and higher
Grew darker
and darker
Looked up and
found my destiny
Now you'll find me
Ice skating on the moon
Falling stars
coasting beside me
drizzled little secrets
bearing a beaming clear
ice cracked dress
named and styled
as an ice empress
Never melting
with light blue ...

4:45 A.M.
I used to be goodlooking!
But then I took an arrow to the knee
I tumbled down the rolling hill
And ended up under an ugly tree
I used to run like the wind!
But then I took a bullet to the shin
Now I’m only as fast as molasses
I’m thick and heavy to my chagrin
I used to be in great shape!
But then I started with the beer
I traded my six pack abs for kegs
Now my legs look thin and weird
I used to have all this energy!
Then I had a whole bunch of kids
Now I gotta have coffee just to make it
Otherwise...

Will You Love Me
Will you love me
During my stygian hours
Will you love me
Even when I can’t love myself
Quietly willing you alone
To breathe life in my worthless heart
Will You Love Me
During my stygian hours
Will you love me
Even when I can’t love myself
Quietly willing you alone
To breathe life in my worthless heart
Will You Love Me

idiosyncrasy
chivalrous temptation,
excitable treachery don't leave me
I am in that mood again
defending my anxiety
there is need without reason
it swings inside me constantly
tortured existence I know no other
so it's for you I get on my knees
does that make me weak?
I guess it does
I can't cut it clean
escapism is my vow
I will check out every chance I get
upon your doorstep I sit awaiting my pardon
I wonder once released will I be different,
or is the problem with me?
...
