just a montana man, living in the big cities' jungle. / / capturing the moments i can, with photos and scribbles of my pen.
*i fear i’m too much of a gentleman for your tastes, walking among the thieves and liars you’ve longed to mate, i fear i’m too quiet to be your next love - your next escapade. cat calls, she seems to only know: walking the cement, looking to be heard, she knows not, to respond to her name. i know i’m too meek to get her attention, no ma’am or miss, will go heard - for she only knows the cat calls she’s heard. not her beautiful name, i've always perferred whistles and howls: she grows from the attention of their hands, slapped ***** and turning masses, she knows only the attention of the crowd’s pleas - cat calls, she seems to only know: walking the cement, looking to be heard, she knows not, to respond to her name. she knows not, to take the blame - until time, has been all but lost: to her seeking the attention of the men who only know her for midnight’s sake: i fear i’ll go on & on, seeking the one who knows the language i try and pass, for all the misery i’ve learned, i’ve been taught: cat calls, create only as long as their brief escape - but letters and photographs, well, they’ll pen our future for decades’ maps they can have their cat calls, their attention to the mere masses - but i’m in love with a women, i haven’t even met, yet.*

cat calls
real love, real pain - intimate, escape: my fears, your tears, nothing perfect - everything gained, heart ache, plans laid, picket fences? roads and trains - about the journey no hurry, views seen, pleasant dreams, night’s past, love lasts, beauties’ mask, intimate, escape here to stay: journey’s make me feel every way.

journey
rushhour, past flowers, love lost, cowards once were, let rain showers, deter love’s powers - walking, beats, heart’s repeats - past flings, never seem, bright as first escape - lets groove, move, show our power: moment’s turned hours, eyes connect, turned journey’s futures - without moving our selves, lets escape the past, once more, before all rush, takes over: lost in the crowds, soon we’ll see - everyone’s free, but following, the roads before, swimming shores, of world’s most - lost, like before: rushhour - mind’s worst - heart’s best - if only cars crept, and eyes wept, were no more.

*never date an artist: for they’ll find the beauty in the fight - they’ll grow to remove themselves from all the light, knowing nothing lasts forever, it’s all a stroke of fate - or a pen’s dance on a paper’s grate. never date an artist: for the moment’s together will be exaggerated into a shakespearean play - love’s trance will be in every date, never knowing if the words spilled are the beauties of your’s or estranged gains of a moment’s escape, for everything is painted by the beautiful eyes of an experienced guide - is it real or a work of art they’re just trying to explain. never date an artist: they’ll miscommunicate everything they care to say - not knowing how to communicate beyond the artistic escape, an artist will rejoice in the gain of a moment’s grace, finding every reason to hide from the honest’s truth - for an artist is nothing but a fairytale’s goof. painted, writen and expressed to be everything they wish people would see, washed up and beaten by reality’s plea - never date an artist, for their life is nothing but a conglomerated mess - of how to escape the stress of the everyday and live in hopeless harmony, they’re nothing but an anomaly: never date an artist. trust me.*

never date an artist
*walking through the streets, lost in the sea, of controversy working by day blacked out by night. looking for the binge, that’ll cover the scars in front of me walking through the streets, under the lights - dark hiding the fight. alone, by choice not mine, your’s it seems. but i’ll be lost come morning - hiding from the feelings you fed me lead me to heaven but I'm sure I won't get in your heart and mine isn’t enough to make up for my sins lead me to heaven but i’m sure i won’t get in your heart and mine isn’t enough to make up for my sins lost at sea, adrift in the mess i’ve seen can’t you see the man i’ve become? just a distant memory of who I was - putting the dirt behind, me working to be - clean under heaven’s gleam - running from the fight, the light - you once showed me as distant as the stars, I wish to be   swimming in come morning’s light lead me to heaven but i’m sure i won’t get in your heart and mine isn’t enough to make up for my sins lead me to heaven but i’m sure i won’t get in your heart and mine isn’t enough to make up for my sins but i’m sure, the closest i’ll get to heaven’s grace - is the beauty in your eyes, and the heart in your soul. lead me to heaven, let me stare your eyes, just once more.*
