My heart belongs to myself
Right now that much is true
But lately I’ve been thinking
Perhaps it should belong to you
You walk by and it hiccups
You talk to me and it sighs
It’s telling me it wants you
And my heart rarely lies.

How deep is the Ocean
Is
Seven miles
Deeper than my deepest thoughts?
Does the lack of light
Breed as much darkness
As I can in
A single night?
Are there creatures there
So heinous that I
Couldn’t even
Dream of dreaming them up?
What mysteries
What horrors
Could lie in a land
More alien
Than the moon?
I think this is
Why the Ocean
Terrifies me
And why I’ll never swim
In open water
With a billion tons
Of blackness
beneath my feet.

There is a child starving
Save your soul and drop a penny in the box
Leftover from your super-sized meal.

i want to follow my Heart
But i am afraid
That if i let the reins go
It will catapult me
Straight through the clouds
And into the Sun
Where i will disappear
In a sad little wisp
Of insignificant smoke

I look up
At higher faces
Suspended in
Disastrous places
Their eyes don’t blink
They cannot see
Their mouths, they gape,
And scream at me!
I’m terrified
And now I find
With a tremble
That I too am blind!
I can’t feel the ground
I must be in the air
I sense wary eyes,
And know they must stare.
My mouth hangs wide
Flies catch on my tongue
And to those below
My words must be sung.
When the wind starts to gust
I belt out my song
The air around me trembles
When it reaches the throng,
And now they have joined us,
In these disastrous places
Forming so perfectly
A sky of blind faces!

Cavern mouths spill
waterfall words
and they all end up
pooled in one place;
in that place little
fishy thoughts grow
and they slip down
other waterfalls and
grow again in great
word pools filling from
waterfalls flowing from
messy cavern mouths.

Floating on open sea
the thought excites me
but I am a coward;
falling through open air
that I could do
for I can see the bottom

I don’t know rattling gunfire terror
Sand in eyes when sight is key
I’ve never had life flow
From my best friend onto my fingertips
I’ve never killed a stranger
Or hated one enough to seriously consider it
I haven’t watched metal angels soar
Releasing exploding flowers from their bellies
I don’t wake cold sweaty drenched
Long after the battle has ended
I don’t see faces endless faces
Imagine lives that do not live
I don’t want any of this
I’ll probably never have any of this
I won’t know it
I won’t live with it
So why
Should they?

The night creeps upon them
Its fingers slipping into their mouths
“Shh,” it traces over slack lips
The night kisses eyes bloodshot and heavy
Softly mouths them closed
“Sleep,” it drips between eyelashes
The night embraces paralyzed bodies
Massages away the dead weight
“Relax,” it flows through stiff limbs
The night settles upon their heads
Floats in through their ears
“Dream,” it releases into waiting minds

I AM GOING TO WIN, I AM GOING TO WIN, I AM GOING TO WIN, I WON I WON I WON I WON I WON I WON I WON I WON I WON I WON I WON I WON I WON
THIS ROCKS MY SOCKS MAN
BECAUSE I AM THE BEST AND I
DID IT I DID IT I DID IT
YES I DID
YES
I AM THE VICTOR
I HAVE ACHIEVED IT
AND I THANK
PEOPLE
WHICH PEOPLE?
I DON’T KNOW
EVERYBODY, HOW BOUT THAT
A LITTLE PIECE OF GRATITUDE
TO CARRY AROUND IN YOUR WALLET
AND SHOW TO THE PERSON
STANDING AT THE ****** OVER
AND HE WON’T PUNCH YOU
BECAUSE HE IS SHOWING YOU HIS LITTLE PIECE OF GRATITUDE TOO
YOU CAN HAVE A GRATITUDE PARTY
INVITE YOUR FRIENDS
INVITE STRANGERS
INVITE THOSE PEOPLE WHO GO AROUND
IN THOSE GIANT STREET CLEANERS AT NIGHT
BECAUSE THEY LIKE TO HAVE FUN TOO
AND WHEN EVERYONE HAS COME TOGETHER
WITH ALL THEIR LITTLE PIECES OF GRATITUDE
THEY WILL MERGE TOGETHER
AND MAKE THE ULTIMATE THANK YOU
AND IT WILL BLOW YOUR MINDS
AND YOUR SOCKS TOO
SO YOU’LL BE STANDING AROUND MINDLESS AND SOCKLESS
AND I WILL TAKE OVER THE WORLD
AND MAKE EVERYONE WALK BAREFOOT IN THE SNOW
AND THEY WILL LISTEN
BECAUSE THEIR MINDS HAVE BEEN BLOWN TO BITS
YOU SEE
AND THEY WILL DO WHATEVER I TELL THEM TO
SO I WILL MAKE THEM FORM A PEOPLE HOUSE
FOR ME TO LIVE IN
AND IT WILL BE THE STURDIEST HOUSE
THAT WHEN AN EARTHQUAKE COMES
IT WILL ONLY SHAKE IT LIKE JELLO
AND JELLO IS GOOD SO THAT IS NOT A PROBLEM
AND THIS MY FRIENDS
IS WHY YOU MUST NEVER THANK ANYONE
BECAUSE THEN YOU BECOME
SLAVES
