If he’d a-just floored it, drove-a straight line right through the end-of-the-World that would’ve been fine with me. A fine way to die with sex-sticky thighs and an orgasm-glow warmin’ my skin. He drove on- steady and slow. He drove on and I, and I, and I played- steady and slow. Act your age. So I did- I did, I paint-ed his lips with the salt-sweet of our deed and I whispered. I whispered You’ll go again. Kerbed a wheel, swore, but I felt him grow hard and I felt him frown through the dark- Girl, I’m takin’ you home. I felt him frown through the dark- Girl, I’m takin’ you home. Saw home in the distance and I didn’t wan-t-go. Saw home in the distance and I didn’t wan-t-go. I felt him frown through the dark- Girl, I’m takin’ you home. If he’d a-just floored it- drove-a straight line right through the end-of-the-World that would’ve been fine with me. A fine way to die- I wanted to die. Wanted to die- and wanted to never go home.

sweet sixteen
We were attached by the same red string. Except ours is wrapped around our necks and each time it gets harder and harder to breathe; love wants us together, but yet fate says we simply cannot be. Sandoval

Strings
The sun is beautiful If you hear the The whisper of the wind With it. Such are memories That remind me Of the heartache. An old clock Brings me no peace As it clicks like the years As they pass by.

A Low Land
Death is ill timed, never expected and awkward for those left behind. Funerals are Death's surreal plays. Tears won't always come on cue. It's bad luck to talk about death. We speak kind of the dead. We don't talk of their human frailties. We deny our own sins and theirs. We forgive the world for our sins. If we never lived in your creation with temptations forbidden we'd never suffer birth and death.

Death Has Dominion
Oh you fickle being, you. Always one to never shy away From opportunities of affection To spread your wings and take flight. But sadly, You soared too high every time Always too close to the sun And spiralling down you go Into the bottomless pit below.

I,carus
I know of a neighbor next door, She’s stuck up in the winters, With a cabin in her igloo, That crunches cracks, that,   When she peepn’ through, The world stops to look, Her silence falls like the bullets, I checked her timeline, And her closet's in pink, Like her hair, like her skin, she loves what she's got, but, in fear of what the world will see, When I near to say hello, She clenches on her fist, galloping her soronity, like the, secret word engraved in her palm, when my kids ‘re in her lawn, she, smiles, then shutters in precision, so, harsh, that the igloo thaws to his freeing, a man, whose not set eyes on his born little, he only but presumes a beauty, one so quiet, like the crutches he's clutching, on his left, on his right, interlocked palms, Further end, the palm that unfolds, 'atrapado en el amor' The cabin door bolts.

Igloo in Thaws
Look up there, really look! The line of your sight and the path that it took. Try to understand the truth of life’s vocation. While you grasp the depths of its bitter isolation. There is nothing up there, nothing watching. Just a barren universe, casually mocking. Existence, is a catalog of aligned integration. Just a system of knowledge and past information. Your ability to experience in all of its brilliance. Is merely the outcome of your required existence.
