You didn't see me here.
I see you drivin' 'round town with the girl I love and I'm like haiku

Stuck Song Syndrome (Haiku For CeeLo)
Gaslights, headlights; broken down shoes Passing by winos who've been sniffing on glue Pulled into the city about a minute ago I thought's I'd get some sunshine but all I see is snow It's dusting the Earth to the color of a Lily People staring at my shoes, I know they look silly If I had half a muscle I wouldn't whip their *** My sisters won all the fights we had in the past Oh God Oh Lord Oh Devil Oh No I told my Mawma I'd be home by 8 But now I'm 33 and that's way too late She'll still be smiling when I get there But I'm sure I'm gonna catch Hell from the Mayor 'Cause I smuggled some numbers out of the last state Then I ran through a red light and they photographed my plates I had a girl tell me that she was obsessed Even though all I did was get drunk and depressed So I tried to love her but she made it hard 'Had the nerve to ***** me out while I was working in her yard She said "You're too much to handle, how'd you get so drunk?" So I packed up my **** and I threw it in the trunk Five minutes later I was out of there But I still work up at 7 choking on her hair Oh God Oh Lord Oh Devil Oh No Each day is different but they're just alike I sit around waiting for that certain time of night When I can sip my suds and try to go to sleep So I can dream about a day when I won't have to think About God About the Lord About the Devil or About my Soul...

Broken Down Shoes
Couldn't find her in the States US or those I was in From Maine up to Mania From Hypo down to Sin I scoured the Vol State She wasn't even there Remember the one I spoke of I was choking on her hair So I tramped out to Texas Sandbags were all I found Drove up to Collyrado Crusted Butte, Drunk Unsound The wrong color Orange caught me Where the Gators turn blue Didn't make No ****** sense So I left abused without truth Up to recovery From the Damage that I've done I lost my fears in Knoxville Even though I still have some Couldn't find her in the Ivy League Nor at Oxford, UK Caught my Baby down in Nashville She has the Stones to Swing away Pyreneaic granite told me That French was the Langue Even though I speak Spanish and Italian I think I've found the true Romantic tongue **** what a woman What a spirit indeed I'm gonna shed my last coat Forever cause she's my Queen I found my higher power Linguistics it used to be I might drop off this continent Because Saving's what I need Chirping like a som'bitch Is that Aviary Queen of my globe/world/universe My Archaeoloverix, Baby Kisses Hugs Baby Bird i can hear her coo at me I'm gonna quit my scribbling And call her heart to me

Archaeoloverix, Baby
I clutch Her like a Clutch purse I make Her cling to me She tells me when She holds me She likes it when I sing my Robin my Baby Bird hope You'll keep lettin' me a sing We go out to the jam spot talking Bird's and B's i'm not certain if i'm certain yet one day I hope to be "I have no ambition" said a man close to me when He was asking my Mawm a question that led straight to my dreams Oh Robin, Oh baby Bird Oh Baby Bird sing I'll plany my Heart next to yours if You'll hold my hand and sing I clutch Her like a Clutch purse I like to hear her breathe Talk about a Fresh Mint Jesus, you should hear Her sing I once was a Raven man I even Mockingbirded I think I never was a Cardinal fan I read Buzzards wake at ease Nah, I like my Robin's song She's the Bird I need Oh Robin come to my nest We'll be Night Owls Not song Fowls Let's stay up late and Sing

Clutch Birds
Came across her she's a crossfire my head came screaming to a halt Raced over to the wall phone So I could run and rush the start started thumping like a kick drum Began a breathin' rhythm rush Oh lord please make me smart How do I keep that gal around Enough with the pretense I'm finished with those roles My frown turned into smiles Oh casting director please give me this part Went walking out the back door Rifled through my backpack Smoke racing though my lungs I'm gonna have a cardiac "Nurse, please get me a Nurse" Be Still, My Heart Please don't let her know I'm nothing, she's a work of Art Oh ****** Oh Me Coach called up the best Oh Golly Oh Gee There's thunder down the train tracks Wish we were wading down the stream Instead this boy's a ******* Can't tell if he's drunk or in a dream Did you hear her brilliance? ****** hell yes I did Don't pull any punches boy Don't pull that **** again Lost all my paychecks When I lost my mind and head It seems like I lose myself Even though I've found a payoff That I'd like to never spend She's a swing-dancing genius She's a beauty to behold She called me a smart man Even though I feel like a five year old Check bouncing boy ******* Checked his Ego at the door Even though he found himself asleep On the bathroom floor Can't tell if I need a head shrink Nah, It's something much worse Someone put me to sleep So I can carry off that nurse My brain's drag racing Across these lines over this page Once again Boy ******* Has his head rattling in a cage Be Still, My Heart Don't let me ***** this up Way before this even starts Oh Me, oh My I think I've hit the jackpot But my mind's a Pecan Pie Be Still, My Heart Please don't tell her that She's caused a burning heart I'll wake up tomorrow I'll call her first thing Even though She'll be sleeping I'll leave a message for the future To the woman of my dreams

Be Still, My Heart

C.B. Haiku
jeudi, venus last lago florentine porch shredded from balcony of vestigial vista to plutonian shore not of usual laconic luster nor perennial, token blue sky instead apparitions, or entities please here abounded with vigor, though no it was sotto voce machete was as is wet eh, cam-- bowie's older cousin to poorly kept hedge emitted from the formerly symbiotic fence as when Ozmandias took the Ra's blade; through a gold medal and into the jugular the echo of a dropped coin evolved brutal, hear into the veins of those arms; severed were my once impending solitudes, my eyes shifted quickly towards binoculars only to find a wake of buzzards where once only solemnic eagles balded the paradox of heraldry diurnal yet carrionic
