Some say the first was a chicken, Some say an egg. Since they are so finger lickin’, I stand by those who say chicken. Now a question I’m forced to beg. A paradox in which we’re cursed: If a chicken comes from an egg, Then what came first?

The Chicken and the Egg
Home. Where is my home? Home is where the heart is. Where is my heart? You have my heart. My heart is you. You are my home, but I, am your homie...

I should buy a boat
We spent the day in bed watching out the window for the wet spots of raindrops on the red apartment brick which dried up as soon as it was splashed the silent echoes in the alleyway served as a reminder "Life is good," she said. "It's better than the alternative"

The Alternative
Woke up, in the middle of the night Felt my way to your bathroom but on the way there was a creak with every step but now we know each other so well I know all the dead spots in your floor so I'll tread lightly when I leave because when I walk away you won't have to wake up

Creaks
A thistle is just enough to encumber a ruff rider through the hills never mind the flour mills to process and possess and gain interest on fervent capital gains which are not worth the pains for glory be told for those who'd rather be old and grey without headfeathers and times naught but better have then the vanity to spew chicanery to delve into the society of anti-sobriety and them then who lost streetwise cost but for the depreciated stock which will be bought up by the flock will credit its debits to gangs that met its match to the makers and the tough men shakers who make it possible to move product without anything else to prove than to their mothers dead fathers and brothers that one can make a living off of ******* soul ******* and killing.

The Desert Black Market
I'm homesick for warm sunshine here come the spins and the feeling of a face going pale tired of staying in I'm seasick for warm sunshine don't rock the boat there is a chance that I'll go overboard cold without a coat I'm homesick for warm sunshine Seen the sea, swore the snow to flee and saw what it has done to me

Warm Sunshine
You were born on a cusp. friends on the other side couldn't decide, Scorpio or Libra. You yourself, as constant as the tides. A tenth sign ram was blessed to cross your lovely path and the ram learned: Short curly hair pinned back reveal asiatic eyes. As you pass by and by Time and time hearts race Chicken salad sandwich, its moist mayonnaise is never as delicious without a pickle. Grubhub. No, Scrubhub. Too content to leave the room. Yummy Rummy, food in our tummy. forever. Broth, cheese and wine. Mushrooms and time. If ever I tasted love, it was shared with me, in a recipe. Sound opinion in scores. Royal, like the Tenenbaums. Bill Murray fantastic. Pink Moon over and over and over. Divide that by nine. And now I know, almost as well as you, how good Goodfellas is, even after the tenth time. Early morning awakenings or snooze again and again and again. Paralyzed in a dream or awoken with a scream, we tried a routine: Once parts of a team, a memory faster than it seemed. Ran for miles. A boy and girl in the hall, amongst the boys and girls in the hall. Digital regulars in ecstasy. Wake next to you a daydreamer. So, when life gets hard, and you're feeling down, don't be so glum, ignore your doubts, don't feel left out, I'll be there for you, when you need me to.

Muffin milks the tiny teet of a tête-à-tête torn apart by warring factions. slowly spitting the purple plum dribbling, oozing over the convex lips which kissed and kissed. Cream juices the cocky caucuses of cordial cacophony. Moist middlers meddle amidst businesses of their own interest. Power is power better bear than bottom but everyone is ****** Lap the ego from the firehose, the giant member of the state spraying like a cat claiming "mine!" Hellbound, hell no he'll save us everything is going to **** One man job to make us come out of the 17th hole sand pit of our pernicious premier club membership.

******** Year
My eyes are bags of mucus hanging by cellophane membranes to my skull which is now structured like a wet sponge. My tummy protrudes out from the rest of my abdomen, a gelatinous layer hiding away a chiseled core which may be deteriorating into oblivion at this moment. The skin rests and hangs a little over the top of my leather belt which somehow manages to fit three loops in from the first hole. My neck hangs heavy like the ears of a sad elephant.

Thought Down a Portrait
Nina pranced about the lush green grove. The pitter patter of her footsteps like raindrops on the ground, and her movements, like a fog rolled through a valley.   A white satin leotard decorated with flowery lace patterns A tutu that blossomed from her slender waist.   Hair elegantly tied back into a bun. Face, filled with symmetry, lightly made up with powder. Her cheeks flushed with a pinkish red blush, but natural like her lips of pomegranate red.   The grove, short deep green ryegrass that rolls over the lumpy ground like moss. Trees shade like many arms shielding many eyes. The pure white light of the sun shone through the canopy in beams. Nina danced furiously intent and music box intricately in and out of the beacons of light as a ballerina should following a lifetime of training.
