Canadian I like to write! But I like to yammer on more too so check out some of my cloud-age below. Also if you'd like to just read along as they play. / / https://soundcloud.com/m_c_vegh
Did you hear? Did you hear? He led a life that was Christ-less then got his life in a crisis and now he lays on the ground lifeless. and did you hear? the blasts from sedans shotguns the bullets flew and this man caught one through and through he could not stop one. Did you hear? Did you hear? He was into the gangs as a youth Heard gangsters spit in the booth dreamed of a grill for his tooth. And did you hear? He never got where he was going A train wreck in full view, never slowing. I even heard that he got his first piece to protect his niece from the dangers of the streets. And did about you hear? That niece cooked up rocks after those gunshots Shook like stun gun shocks Burning like no sun block. Did you hear, did you hear? These streets are poorly paved Cars make potholes and the streets they dig graves. These men got know god, so god knows he can't save The streets leave the people desperate and depraved. And did you know, did you know? Everyone is aware. But nothing ever gets done. Because nobody cares.

Did you know?
I used to loving the idea of being a nomad, Moving without a road map, forward on never to go back. But now I know that: life goes full circle You do laps around the track just to jump the same hurdles. Maybe moving forward can come from staying rooted. Build a base of safety then risks can be pursuited. I've always thought my self ill-suited for  any commitment, Perhaps I just convinced myself that nothing has ever fitted. It's easy to get lost in the swirling sights and sounds A wanderlust explorer seeking all but solid ground. You know what though? I've had my fill of moving. Shuffling round long enough not sure of what I'm doing. It's real easy to quit anything, anytime, anywhere, when you convince yourself concerning everything: you do not care. I'm 25 now and feel the need to start caring, Too many nights I've spent drinking and swearing: That I could change the game and put some lights around my name, step into the life of fame and never see the house of pain. **** what a shame. Pretty positive I did the opposite Tried to get deep and ended higher than a rocket ship. But experience I pocketed no chance someone is robbing it I'm done throwing away my best from now on I'll keep it closeted. Use it for myself when I hear the moment beckoning,   It still hasn't passed me yet, at least, by my reckoning. No more talk of time wasted getting too stupidfaceded instead I'll unleash my own hard will and embrace it. Learn to find my own high inside my mind's eye, Use every skill that I have with each tool that I ply. I'm moving from barrels bottom straight to the top shelf. Never thought it'd feel so good: improving my self.

It's been a while since I've been at it. But that's okay I've been making more moves for the static; been high as attics like addicts Not saying that's what I have been doing all of the time, I'm steadily just on my grind looking to expand my mind. But, it's nothing I always find so **** it. Today I am amused by nothing, think I found a muse in nothing, nothing in the search for something, nothing never needs confronting, no hide and seek or hunting. So now this muse I use will surely be left abused but, don't get it confused, I found my muse in nothing. And nothing is not a person for certain so can nothing ever be hurtin? Nothings in front of your eyes, more of it's behind the curtain. You occupy your mind all the time but nothing is constantly lurking. I wanna say that you can grab it and hold it you can't console it but should stash it away as if you stole it and when you need inspiration just dole it. You better embrace the nothing cause it won't go away, I'm feeling inspired since I embraced it today.

My muse is nothing
I wanted to plant my flag way above yours just in a way to say **** yours" but I got bored of the chore of watching us both shoot while I try to outscore. I wanted to speak bolder with words all underlined just to keep you undermined but I realized it's just a **** waste of time, so fine. I wanted to go faster and faster until I passed her but I looked back after turned around and struck disaster. I wanted to fly higher like I was Icarus but these feathers and sticky **** was hit or miss into the sky that I tried to kiss. I wanted to be stronger, and bigger, and always better, but the need to be like that just kept me fettered. I thought I needed to be superior to you until I realized how that was untrue. If I want to improve myself it's now plain to see I don't need to be better than you, just better than me.

Better Than Me
Listen here --> https://soundcloud.com/m_c_vegh/no-apologies-at-the-apocalypse I said I wasn't ready for how this begun now the race has been run, I'll say it has been fun. So if the stars fell from the skies you wouldn't see tears in my eyes for goodbyes to  lies that this world has been telling, those goods were poor for selling. A felony for global enemies and lemme see cause the blood can't scrub from these hands with ready clean do you know what I mean? I took them serious but I am laughing this time, They thought that I would stand in line for this mankind I'm like fine. No crime, But only for a second. Never stay in order too long cause the chaos always beckons. I think I love her for the trouble the love that I have is causin So disaster is my demon and I'm addicted to her problems Not trying to solve them too fascinated by the puzzle I owned the hand of the master so bite that and get muzzled And I can say for certain all the serpents will get their serving. Deservingly for causing uncertainty  with their obscurity. Verbally the dawn and the dusk of us could be the boom then the bust so robust with lust like as we died we all ****** Before we're all ****** But you'll find no apocalyptic apologies from me I didn't fall to greed or disease I worked hard to fill needs. And now  hells bound on four steeds like the poisons on force feed. But we will not drink the kool-aid and shadows of comets are a cruel shade the reason they move this way to collide in for doomsday and the doomed say nothing of light when in the dark like they never knew the flame that could grow from the spark. So I wonder if we knew there was no future to defend would that mean no apologies because regret is pretend?

Reality can keep the glamour and it can also take the glitz, cause nowadays we discover ourselves on computer chips. We  see  how others live in all kinds of far places then try to be individuals in books full of faces. And lets face it these days our lives are being recorded; information on your likes and activities stored and sorted. You ignore it; never get hurt by what you don't know more concerned about how you'll crop your next photo. Gotta make sure to fit in all your clothes logos cause it'll for sure make haters go loco. When they see how you live life with the motto 'yolo' it will make them all wanna examine their livesand say 'oh no'. Man I swear this yolo fad has gotta run into the ground cause if you lived twice your second one wouldn't be spent ******* around. But nowadays we become a grown up on webpages with profiles full of pictures and landmarks to chart phases. Some might call it art in the way that we all make it but, its a mirror to ourselves til the minute we all break it. Can't shake it - the feeling we've crossed realities borders into a digital realm ruled by coded orders, with back doors and corridors, and plasma screens and lots of cords, USB's and PC's, Web Cams, and DVD's, terrabytes and touch screens, reach out and you can touch dreams. but all that you touch it just seems without the intention to be. Because locked inside the screen is reality invested you wouldn't waste your time if no one else was interested. It's been suggested that staring at the screen is bad for your eyes but I do imply that being glued to it is bad for our lives. Now when we meet face to face we cannot even socialize we apply on dating sites and get further categorized. So now it's like who we are is only what does appear to others on all these sites we might never even come near some attraction that was natural pulling in with real excitement, so I guess romance is gone in the age of social enlightenment.

I'm perpetually indifferent to my own distinctive decisions. What sets me apart from the pack is my lack of care for derision.   The world is on fire, what an elegant effigy.     So I say 'just let em burn if they wanna f--- with me.' No time for leg pullers or those who rattle cages Only time for those who chose to write their own history pages. The stages I have crossed to play these different characters Have been destructive in the way they allow me to break barriers Harriers couldn't cruise over me and spot my directives Because too many unanswered questions have me playing detective. It's suggested that in darkness the good's inherently evil but at least without the light you don't see the ugliness of people. and I don't mean their faces with no cover up or blush I mean they don't stop to help someone in need cause of their rush lushes have become the focal point of social structures so the male population has pants with flies about to rupture. So much is fare of the flesh that now it's a flesh fair and it is encouraged to have no respect and just stare and we're determined to mix up some smoke in clear air and we're demanding new jeans that are made with rips and tears. and I'm aware of crazes and fads I'm not mad as in I'm not crazy but this craziness makes me sad I'm at a cross like plaid but this is more like forked roads I am locked in online without any exit nodes, I am inside the safe but no one else knows the codes, so I am me by design 'cause I don't know any more modes.

Are you even real? That night I saw all your *** appeal witty, sarcastic with a magic smile that would make me go for miles just to see you for a while we could do it couple style. and this is all at first glance already I got no chance punch drunk for some romance maybe me and you could slow dance. so I approached for conversation with no hesitation because confidence in demonstration equates to a better dilation. Plus luck favours the bold or that's what I am told I'm only 24 years old and my life ain't all gold. But still I'm like whatever, couldn't everyone do better? Plus with this feeling the second I met her, knew I'd try to get her. So we talked all night even though she was on the clock told her I needed her number so we could talk smiled and told me that I really did walk the walk I told her I open doors when I hear opportunity knock. She took my phone, typed her number and her name I went home smiling with her smile on the brain, But for some reason I have never seen her again I called and I messaged and its driving me insane. and believe me, not in a desperate way I know how to make this play I sent a singular message and called once I ain't ringing her line for days. Now it's been three weeks and I keep meeting new faces but I gotta say that none of them have your graces they all seem too caught up with rat races and they're all just looking for meaningless embraces. So it's super unfortunate but hey, c'est la vie. I'll take one from the beatles and just let it be so now to scout out some new company hmm let me see... who will it be?

I'm wondering if the surface of our passions is all that we've been scratchin. We take small bites like rations and always do it the same old fashion. But the passion of sweaty spasms that let us play Eve and Adam get us by but I've fathomed that our ******* are also our chasm. So could that make a ****** cause fallout? And if you were in need would you call out? or would you hide it inside you like the sympathy I have is all out? I'll be honest: I never saw doubt til it hit like a bus, but then again all that lust usually comes with some trust It's a must. Somehow it's lackluster from something so wanderlust. I dunno if confidants correlate to confidences but the way that we've been feeling couldn't be just coincidences. and I'm not defenseless, I've grown thick skin with thin pretenses. so I wish you the very best and I'd never wish any less, you always got a place in my chest but this thing is better off put to rest. so its over, I'm going forward but behind me I won't find regret, cause I'll still be having good times but the old ones I won't forget.

A Parting of Ways
Today I killed my friend He was a lady bug He somehow came into my house unannounced and decided to stay and to me that was okay. I named him Francis but most of the time I called him Frank for short. He was a little rough around the edges for your average lady bug. Always a chip on his shoulder. Anyways like any new room mate things were all laughs and smiles, at first. He'd be up late when I was all drunk and he'd be buzzing around the light in the ceiling and I'd look up and there he was and I'd just smile. But then as the nights went on and I was not partying Frank would be up late anyways Flying around the light all god **** night making this annoying clinking noise. While I was trying to watch a movie or write or read or anything by the light in my living room. So today I was already in a not so swell mood and here comes  Francis L. Bug clink, clink, clinking away at the god **** light He clinked so hard he  fell from the light and landed on my coffee table wrong place, wrong time. I picked up a nearby knife and I stabbed Frank. I **** near split him in two. After I pulled the knife away I left his remains on the table for a few moments before they made me feel too terrible to behold and I decided to clean him up. I killed my friend today and now he isn't around anymore to here the tales like this one I once would have shared with him so while this is now for the readers like you to enjoy, these are my final farewells to Francis, to let him know that he is gone but not forgotten.
