Born into a world of nothing really going on, and currently living out the rest of his days in a melancholy haze occasionally broken by the ever-present burning sun of manic joy...
Lawrence (who goes by Lars) Went to India And Contracted SARS Damped his spirits? I think not! His best friend is Lou Payed his taxes and went to church Alas, 'twas not Jesus That he found on his search Lars and Lou One day had nothing to do They crowded the streets of the city In Bangladesh In Timbuktu They never found something quite as pretty Lars had bandages on his eyes Lou chose not to see Turning a blind eye Turning the cheek Say what you will (makes no difference to me)

What Else Are We Suppose To Do At Three In The Morning?
I am a Knight Put here If only to fight It's not my business To say Right or Wrong In the end I am but a pawn

The Heartland Front
You and your good friend They make love out of paint and clay Worlds without love we cannot mend Many feelings-all cheap-with no waste to lay

You Make Love Cheap
Exes and Ohs Litter the page Sprinkled around in a random matter Without age Relative to time Persecuted for that one word That one crime Exes and Ohs Meaningless apart Like a left ventricle Without the right heart Two halves   Of the same bilateral organism An awkward moment Nervous laughs Eyes forward Minds in each other's pants Forget needless pleasantries Deposit in wilting potted plants Hugs and kisses Sincerely yours Tell me why It's me you ignore

Double Helix ***********
Lost at sea Without a home Caught within The subduction zone Come and feel my radiation Revel in universal segregation Robbing the king of his throne Safely from the subduction zone Run for cover And Higher ground The Hurricane's coming Leave this town Millions dead with no survivors Where's your god now? Smirking probably The man is very Proud What is the world but one big catastrophe Catastrophe Catastrophe

Teeth Vs Pavement
A few strokes of bad luck What else could it possibly be? A ****** up coincidence? Or lack of empathy Fingernails grow like ice crystals Lying by omission Aiding and abetting Vandalize all that's beautiful In this world that's not worth living    Love letter in calligraphy   Doodle in the margins Images Of something that's just not me We're just friends Lies and and false emotions Follow you like smoke follows beauty I wanna hate you It's not easy We're just friends It's not easy To hate someone you love I wanna hate you Like I can hate myself

My Capulet Charm
The little voice inside of you Directing decision Trapped Unable to envision Success In rapid succession Reverting In sudden regression Sewing shut Your mind's eye Blame your loss of contact Contact with me The romantic deviant Your love is beautiful With all it's conditions Scolding the masses For their mental carbon emissions Unpopular Is an understatement What do you expect Pushing for a decision When there is no answer

Phony Bologna
Beauty Perfection Wasted I was ready to give myself to her My heart She cut and pasted I was a simple prop To occupy her time If I was to leave She would not mind It haunts me Her Child-like stare Every strand Of her red hair Every plan Every smile It's been more than just Alittle while I'm not an artist I can see her unattraction Stemming from My lack of action Blistering boils of Lethargic lust In the end Is there no one left To trust?

Killing Time Just for Kicks
Little particles of dust Exposed by a sliver of light Dancing to the rhythm of the room You could stop smiling And they would slow Slow to the motion To the emotion Moving in sync Chaos personified Little universes Only exist in the light Moving Speaking Shouting The language of god Speaking from an empty script Dancing the steps flawlessly Choreographed by existence Beautiful Pointless Existence

Little Universes
Licenses to **** Permit to lie It's illegal To see through another's eye Unified opinion On touchy subjects   God has forsaken you Like other earthly objects The lame Are not to blame But the smug And proud Listening to themselves talk Alittle too loud *** May sell Alas it's a ticket to hell *********** and romance Are in less demand A bullet fired into the air Knows not where to land Band together Like atoms In a molecule In the hand that pulls the lever The answer to life is scribed on a note card In a locker left unlocked Left ajar In the rain
