Andrew Rueter
I don’t want to consume art to escape my life
I want art that makes me confront my life
I want art that uncovers my blind faults
and reveals my secret triumphs.
What do I need to change?
Why do I need to change?
How do I need to change?
And why is the time for change now?
These questions help me escape from needing escapism.

The deeper the dreamer
The more dramatic
The dream
Go back to sleep
Chaotic scene

Royal gardeners
Fertilizing passions
Snakes of a fruit
Angelic reactions

Intoxicating pleasures
Resolving dissatisfactions
A collective conscience
In poetic fashion

It was good
And dreamt
Into
Dream reality
For us
Slumber on!

Rosie Toes
As she walks, she looks down at her feet
As she's still, she looks up at the sky
Too afraid to face the world directly in front of her
From what I've noticed
Forever is an awfully long time
You don't really consider that when you are making your wedding vows
All you see is roses and the person that you love now
Forever is an awfully long time
forever is an awfully long time
This thing was beautiful
This thing was magnificent
This thing was magical
A magical mess

This thing broke his heart
This thing damaged our trust
This thing almost tore us apart
I'm trying to fix this up

This thing has hurt my self confidence
This thing has made me so selfish
This thing stole my innocence
Actions have consequences
our actions have consequences
I miss you
Not your body but your friendship
Not your kisses but your laughter
Not your touch but your kindness
I miss you
missing someone makes my heart ache

I’m grateful to her
The way I’m grateful to friends
When they save my seat
She’s just keeping you warm for me
