birds singing on wires
and treelimbs;
the house is burnt to embers.
we never learn,
we won't remember.
smoke shades sky still sadder
than any of us though.
measured worth
in bones littered across
every bit of this rock.
birds singing.

so
so
bored of the
same old
same old.
all is grist,
I'd call it a grift too.
all of it,
from the womb to the lichgate,
the womb and the lichgate included.
hope is about as high
as a sink full of dishes.
my only relief from anything
comes from staring at stars,
knowing I'll have to
endlessly relive this.
entropy lent at interest.

far from home,
far from conscious,
a fall from grace
isn't as far from
greatness as
one would
think.
progress.
unsung,
fade to black;
fin.
is it though?
I've been renting hopes
like the rest of you.
centrifugal force;
I'm minimum effort
in your pivotal war.
miss me with the ********
hit the mug with the honey,
[full clip]
that wool slips and let's the light in,
[that isn't funny]
im ******* trying here.

smiling,
you were constellations
I had never glimpsed before.
I'm shivering at your door
like its nothing
because it's nothing.
I'm just lucky as ****
to even be here.
trust me.
it's "keep clear" mostly
if you haven't noticed
already.
not usually the one
at parties at all,
let alone the one
throwing confetti.

watch me as I burn
this candle I've been
balancing on my nose
all night.
call it finesse.
ive been left in the rain,
my "separate" is praying
for rain and a good harvest.
darkness creeps under your
your bedroom door,
reaching for you,
reaching for youth.
I lost that last life.
just saying.

the locus of expanded
war or any armistice...
what that actually means
is something I'll probably
walk into like traffic
in the future,
at some point.
I think,
the way your voice
bounces around
your car is one
of God's hiding places.

go ahead,
arrogate the treasure's weight.
I'm never late for anything.
changing weather patterns
don't excuse being aloof
on the route to a better "you".
ive putrified between walls
too many ******* times.
never late for anything,
remember?
remember.
remember.
remember.
remember.
remember.

can you be claustrophobic
socially?
an ocean between me everyone
just doesn't seem to cut it.
[budget fx-whatever]
my monsters never needed
to be goaded into anything,
they have always been able
to make a show of things
all on their own.

skydiving still,
put a comma where
you want.
I'm lauded,
better ask about me.
this is that "ah nah" ****
ad nauseam.
bats in the belfry.

sharks circling,
I'm thinking about
how our desperate pleading
screams
sound to the people
on vacation on the deck
of the passing cruise ship.
does the desolate breeze
make it sound like jazz?
