tell me how to write
the gnats out of my skull
the static from my fingertips
the fire from my veins
the infection from my wounds
tell me how to write
you out of this body

once upon a time,
there were two peas in a pod.
true partners in crime;
envied, was their facade.

they kept each other's secrets,
at least one pea did.
a few spilled, the other admits.
she was reluctantly acquitted.

forgiven again and again,
deteriorating the bond's trust.
controlling her best friend,
their connection doomed to combust.

the big blow up never happened,
one pea just rolled away.
her life is now unburdened,
ready for a brand new day.
Ever walk away from an unhealthy friendship or relationship feeling relieved?
i asked at the beginning, "are you good at taking hints?" they all said yes with eager smiles and starving eyes.
so tell me why i tell you in every way i know how, that i do not want to belong to anyone anymore.
and you still think you have a chance to make me yours.
you said you were good at taking hints so why do you not understand me when i tell you that i do not want to be with you.
why does yes seem to make more sense to you than no ever did?
is it because you were to hungry for a piece of me or because you felt bad that you already stole something from me.
i can't write right now...

The café named a sandwich after me,
"World's greatest doormat", prithee,
A people-pleasing syncophant, you see,
So, here's the new sandwich for thee,
"The world's greatest doormat", just like me!

Don't let thoughts drag you down,
No need to wear such frowns,

Productive, but rest as well, prithee,
Make the most of today's interim,
Yes, that's the way, carpe diem!!!

Yahweh Yahweh

Hear as I say

A crumbling rock is I as I stand

All points of the compass lies the sinking sand

And as bits of I fall

Jah, hear as I call.

For the Saints and the Angels

The knights of the round table

The prophets of old

The wise man with his gold.

The heathens the sinners

Enslaved cotton spinners.

The trumpeteers

The cannoneers.

The old blues players

The Christian slayers.

For Peter for John

I need not go on

And as they arrive

To watch this demise

Hear me.

Repentance I cries.

Yahweh Yahweh.

Your  pain, it is perfect, so pretty when you hurt.Your hurt, so patient, so beautiful in your blur, so beautiful when you're blue, my awe, your sad eyes, all I feel is you, all I feel is, you.

          
You  sing those sad songs, those songs of truth, those truths of sad songs, the truths I see in you, a moth to a flash light, all I see is you, all I hear is, you, dark in your light now, you are still, my truth.


The  pain so perfect, always be with you, the pain so poetic, its always been for you, life has changed now, even without you, you live inside now, the space I saved for you.
You weep, I wept

slept in
until the earliest of hours

cowering
you watched me walk into the sun
