life is an embryonic project full of illogical reasons and beautiful insanities
I had a bad day. One of those that started while I was sleeping. Shaking hands and a heart racing like the horses in the Kentucky Derby. I kept my mind blank, on purpose, you know. How is it that all of a sudden, every bad memory comes to mind and turns me into jelly? This day is odd. Everything off. Someone looks at me. "Are you okay?" "Yes, I am." It's a small lie, but that is the answer they expect. They don't want to know anything, except that everything is okay. They don't want to know the bad things. Because that makes them uncomfortable. The sort of uncomfortableness that makes you itch. I roll, and take a **** I smoke my closest friend. You know the one. I forget the bad, I float in space, and watch that someone stumble and fall. Too much to drink. I prefer nature to help me with my bad days.

taking a ****
He fell from a shooting star, Dust from angels' wings Falling from his hair. His eyes reflected the sun, Burning bright From his soul shone the night, Still, quiet, and tranquil His heart was the wild, All fierce and patient And I fell for him, Thirsty for his Pure existence Of being

My shooting star
We'll walk hand in hand in a field of daisies each whispering their little secrets to the wind. The willow tree beyond us dances in it's own trance that we try to understand by kissing the bark. A geometric heart has been carved eternally where we share "I love you's". Beauty waves from the sky and no matter what eyes behold it, It is beautiful and wonderful and full of bliss that we might burst into fireworks of stars, and now we can make the night shine too.

fireworks of stars
endless, monolithic desert roads stretch far, like a rug rolling it's tongue out for sandals, the car boiling and windows blowing cool air, like the wind trying to become stronger than the sun, and the song Breezebeats croons lyrics into my ear, like it can delete the silence in the rest of the world.

roadtrip
he walked a dusty path, weary feet, squinted eyes searching through the horizon of a sun burning low. flower petals of memories fell softly to his feet. there is nothing beautiful here, except the whispered prayers that he breathed softly upon those delicate petals and let them drift away onto the wind.

petals of memories
a blue jay paints circles along a million silver lined clouds hovering over trees like a musky mist of love. my tongue on the glass sketching a kiss except you are as warm as the live blue jay painting circles along a million silver lined clouds.

tongue on glass
There is a million in this auditorium that is meant only for one and I am in the spotlight in the back limelight of limelights in the grim ...dim... spot of attention ...wide eyed stares from ghosts in the walls scuttling and amongst the million I am quite ignored.

amongst a million
of which is humor and of which is life that our dry mouths gape at the beauty of death?   old princesses and young hobgoblins will laugh at our naiveté that imitates picnic blankets and checker boards. "Many perished precisely because they were young and beautiful." Andre Breton laughs with our age and our age laughs at time and time laughs at half played grand pianos and full moons and they laugh at our fingers which fumble at life and life fumbles through humor. of which is humor and of which is life we wonder as water clogged ears strain to hear. or listen?

It is My turn For a ration Of Pain in this Minute world Where my Tongue Becomes a rug For muddy Shoes to Scratch upon And where my Heart becomes A marbled Gravestone.

a ration of pain
Your eyes wrap around my heart and i miss you. i searched for the keys as i brushed the teeth of a black square that has ****** me in deep and i miss you. Your smile skips a beat tentatively and brightens a tear in my eyes and i miss you. i stumble along the rainless path that sings the nebulae's lullaby and I miss you. Your love waves over me such as the gravity that hit Newton and rips my ribcage where I keep those keys I was searching for and I miss you. The sun that is cracked and dry only clocks in when it wakes up in a present eternity at this moment only. and i miss you.
