American Much of what I write is song lyrics. The rest are just whatever...
I curl into a ball and disappear And reemerge in another world Bending over backwards And annihilating Simultaneously Whirling violently Dragging space with me Burning the void at my edges A yawning pit of need I see you smeared across the firmament Unrecognizable information To anyone who doesn't know your every atom The way I do

you led me out to sea and took the wind from my sails i dragged you down with me i grabbed your wrists and down i dove you pressed your lips to mine and ****** the life out of me i looked up at you with sun behind and asked you to drown with me

you sat there like a buddha showing us the way we thought we could keep you here we thought you would stay in this place we tried to be as good as you and yet you left us you left us as quietly and suddenly as a tear leaves the eye falling away from us away from everything spiraling we stood there like fools wondering in awe at your calm

Spiral
I've dreamt of a light heart-filling and enlightening I know that I've felt it yet I forget when and where Something will illuminate my dark corner eventually If I imagine an infinite universe where this never ends

My Dark Corner
the words they wrap around you the lies they weave I believe the words they wrap around me with lies they weave reality the words they wrap around me the lies they weave you believe the words they wrap around you with lies they weave reality we seek the edge it separates me and you let the blade cleave skin from flesh we bleed humanity we seek the edge it guides me and you together anew let the blade cleave skin to flesh surface to depth we breathe humanity we found the edge and it cut me and you and the blood we spilled... deep enough to drown in

Skin
you with new moon eyes and i without mind between the echoes of screams we lay here dreaming you stare back at me holding a ball of nails while walls of fire collapse about us roused by medulla fear manifest in blood seeing and hearing and ignoring the darkened world internal chemical stimulus separate from awareness sparking the primitive imperfect and savage brain my pulsar heart mirrors the flickering of images and terror that haunt my sleep my black hole eyes radiate oblivion and swallow the light I need to live

New Moon
Wrested out of mind I lose something of myself when my eyes open The flesh I inhabit the universe I touch they're all made of dreams embodied possibilities organic machinery built by light herself that feverish dreamer even dreamt herself She sees perfection when her eyes close She makes it so Void summoned to form by the dreamer's dream Dancers through darkness these mere spirits, luminous yet empty, forget where they've been, carried upon the subtle wind to this very moment Wrested out of mind I lose something of myself when my eyes open The flesh I inhabit the universe I touch they're all made of dreams Unearthly dreams

Aurora Borealis
Who Will God Me? Me? Only I Will God Me I Lay in awe lay in the light I rain upon you Lay in awe, lay in my light I reign over you

Seizing Lightning
Like beasts we live Like beasts we prey Like beasts our bones will be found by better ancestors Like beasts we die Like beasts we rot Like beasts our flesh will fill the bellies of the scavengers Like beasts we scream Like beasts we pray Like beasts our last breaths drift away into every universe Like beasts we are Like beasts we must be Like beasts created in his image, beholden to hers

Paradise
A shadow A fleeting negative Darkest When the sun is brightest A mirage Dancing alive Convincing When all is laid bare A specter An echo Clattering bones A clenched jaw A will to be When being is unwise
