Stand together, under the trees; Warmth and togetherness is strong; Bathe in the golden summers, long and lovely. Cover yourself at night, don't let the lizards in, For the glorious benefit of auburn nights. Wind blows heavy and loud, crushing my hopes. Naked creases form upon the soil, converging, On the veranda where we sit sipping teas. I talk slow so she will understand me, Her caramel heart melts under my hands. Unearth the bodies we buried before. A long lost memory sits perched on the sink, Its cat eyes stare loathingly at our actions. Fire and water pour a steamy love. She just won't listen to the sounds of life. One day, i will look back at my birth, Was it worth the pain i brought? A wasted skin lies in the alley, Drugged and ****** cuts along the spine. Clouds decend upon the wedding reception, Smokey and fragrent it pulls speech from speakers. Knives, pierced through silver lungs. Kindred spirits pile up in the gutter, Never finding true peace. I thought life was worthless, Now its totally pointless.

Caramel Heart
Can't keep up Sleep passes by Haunted by the forest Little pieces of sky Land softly on the stars Branches caress Dead fauns A restless wilderness The janitor works late Cleaning up the mess All thats left Are flower petals Forbidden by men Runing the way It was meant to be Seven long days And nothing has Been accomplished Deemed special Better than the rest The bears and foxes The seals and dolphins Running from saws Caught in a web of chants They are brought to A place Covered in paste Its beautiful, Peaceful and rich From the clouds People look on Rest with the intention Of never awakening Forced gods breath Just in case of fire We wait for the sun Under the canopy of Gas and waste My own thoughts No one else would think They must become nothing To be worth something Scared and weak Everyone is something Who was born of another Gospels sing praise of Thankfulness Who woulda thunk We'd be so stupid Building ground over Our used consumption Sometimes i sit And think And write And lose myself In the reality of everything But what everyone knows Is accepted without question. To you, who has read this, i thank you. You are very patient. Lol.

Astro space dust peaking over the bows Jesters prance across your belly causeing blindness And practical giants pick your clothes for tonight. Although we have danced together Yesterdays lunch backs up our crusades. The spiked pants have formed a crust Around the water bed Filled with the tears of your family. Your halos burn in the fire of the ages Scorching the carpet. Liquor and wine fill the packs A toast to life is a thirst quenching mission Taking away our lust and bleaches our skin Forgotten births spread across the floor Covered in last nights brew. The night bodies jangle around under the gauze Bells toll in the distance but the breath drows it out. Under the bridge, behind the stores, In the Inns, out inside. The physics are catestrophic in their own way. Crys begin once the breathing stops and the men leave. Today we are creatures but how did we get this way Who was the one who came up with the idea? Don't question yourself The leopards can't chase you forever Give yourself to the hunters They starve another night.

Boom Ankle Groove
Shes the sky and the ultimate waves Persued and fried, you and I can't sleep The seven animals outside won't be still There's glass in this drink And its all covered in pride But if i would drink it Colossus and the party Will dance until the knights sit down Coked out faces shining in the cupboards Worn throughout the ages by preachers and worms But the lakes will back up And the trees will grow to the sky The rivers will run pure and clean And men will be there too All we can do is think back Justice will be a mighty song Ringing through the telephones Too all those ducks and salmon platters That wait in the upstairs lavatory Someday I'll spin you a tale Of ships And of sailors And sunken treasure But thats not today The cobra den hisses and moans to the radio man He won't hear a thing until he's spaced "Send him to the gallows" shouted the crows, "Rip his skin with the axe" yelled the bag boys "And crush his thoughts with the rocks" screeched the roads But alas his tale is mixed in bowls of negativity And his body is now in the shoes you wear So now i'll say these words And frown upon your face Because we're all gone now And tomorrow we'll be back But we'll never be the same.

The
The gods all shout and sing And don't push the wine aside Won't you call the sea? An orca is lost Disturbed by the big feast And mulched in the bed Your doctor will not say And his spirits can not talk So you must die alone.

Flaccid Castle
Garbage spilt across the moonwalk Rushing to the gutter You must be the hunter Nothing's in the bread It's all gold and glitter In the mourning I saw the dawn And your face resembled the sun Costs for coats rise with the tides Juice from the earth Tainted at birth Stumps sometimes talk to me Their knowledge is their girth A repeating course Paused only when we meet The clouds spurt stars Creatures birth creatures But they can't be called creatures Solid soil poured over us In a shower of mothers Your hands are covered in sap Someones head is in my lap And our fingers overlap Poison feelings delivered by bus In a box of tissues Issues between the lines Fantasy comes through the door Holds you tight Won't let you go There's no money for the poor And ain't it love?

Hands Made of Would
You search for the answer Of your survival All you find is old dust On the books Across the fields Through a pile of sand Hunched behind the wheat A girl And her grills You talk to her in muffles Standing on her truffles And she scowels An owl watches Truth hidden behind his eyes He wants to tell you But you won't listen He's just a bird A caress over your brow Sends you into sleep Where you search for answers But only find images Friends; Cameras; Buttons; Relaxation Planets; Mantarays; Bottles; and Scabs What do they mean? Questions fill your meat As your feet lift into the air And you become a hero.

Tepid
Colourful bodies of water Flow free from land. Hawks dive through the waves Of technicolour candy And look for morsels And look for dorsals And fins of friends. We watch them and sing Hum and whistle You look towards the mountain I walk to the sea. Splashes of inks Splatter the shore And the seasame streams Flow no more. A harp is played In a cave by the road A choir of fish Driven from their home We did this. God, we did this. And power is gained and lost Because we did this. We dried the lakes We drank so easily from the earth But things we never thought about Now linger in our minds. No more colors are showing No more beauty And now we're going downhill I hope we had a good time With our hearts in our hands We sit in the sun And watch it set. Dream of tomorrow It won't be there.

No! All is havok All is pounce Brush a bruise over your eye You're filthy Whore's eyes Some men hit Most men will split Show them your good side **** Then shower Gravel built from monuments In the catbox The meat you eat It has a funny flavour Cars sure are fast Say All your words slurr All your friends purr Mud lava Twig cities Wonderous beings ****** gasses Double as a president Gore And sublime bliss A rock of **** Space rock Bile gravy over turkey Make baby sleepy Another night down And another ***** in Your body.
