six dead
spider
in the watering bowl
drowned before they could
lay eggs in my skull

lay awake
in my bed
thoughts
of the eggs
inside my head
bedside swatters
a lozenge
and glass
i fear tonight
will be my last
9909
Bent twigs in front of me
making thought like this is the place
i think things through, at least
a minute too longs, better than a moment
too soon
gracefully making my ways- it shows through
graceful or not I'm coming- home
doesn't mean I'm on the top of my game
it just means I'm an ant winning
on the hunt gives it new meaning
                     for you
I'm just not one to see things through


been a bird and been a place
never been happier than i was
that day
when i thought we could just...stay
but now we try
nothin- way too far
past the end
------------------
and I'm done
feeling wrong
in a world where there
is no wrong or right
I lived with me
and I lived alone
I went too far
but not too long
in case I see
what I want to see
I had my eyes replaced
with cameras from a cellphone

I have learned when to
learn when to fight
----------------
im not one without a third eye
still don't mean i got second sight
----------------
chorus
----------------
solo
got no hands sept the ones on my legs
so ill run till the end of my dying days
im gross for you and youre  too clean for me
but the memory of you

sure i think of you
no matter how much i try not
you , a persistent pain
a stubborn house guest
from the grave.
is it you haunting i
or is it i  haunting myself
with you, the ever growing barage

of unanswered questions
and of
shuddering at the words
you spoke into my soul.
------
I was found lying down in a warm pool of my own thought erasing time and the way i feel, erasing memory in itself.
im not living because id be living in hell.
im not breathing, the airs filled with you.
just as well, just as well
im not leaving , till i get my fill
get my fill get my head clear
let go of the refrain
not gonna let it take over this brain
head clear, new head , clear
but only for a sec, i came falling back
to earth and that thing thats always right
I'm living lies, but not living in a lie
I'm learning despite losing my mind

am i still quick to conclude, I am not good for you?
Risk quick to project, I'm more to defend
youre quick to respect that
i ******* hate you

im closing my gates to you
park is full
but everyone else is welcome
leaving your mark
its a scar and its quickly healing
this scar will not impress
it will only express
or just depress
and give pain afterwards
it deals with it
///////////
i got lost in  your deepness
but i remembered how to swim
thats how i got to my island
i couldn't get my fill get my fill
or keep it real enough to fill
get my head clear
let go of the pst
of the past
hey
buddy its not coming back
can't twist the hurt you dealt
just because of the way i react
you can't take nothing back
nothing back, I'm taking everything
get real with your head
feels, lemon pledge the spots
the ones you can't till youre clean
when I'm green and I've seen nothing to keep
this is me keeping me from jumping.
the love thing isn't for me its for you'n every other sucker in the world
I'm done getting my fill
now i have just gotta keep my head clear
no fear

dont I l     ve here?
I took muse  lf to heaven
then went   back to hell
i guess I'm just that evil
that i would break
both our hearts
again
written on Renaissance Marriot on my 19th birthday. i spent it overlooking Toronto in a hotel room drinking miller light legally, while my mother slept in the other side of the suite.  i was there to see my favorite band radiohead, but the show was canceled due to a death in the stage collapse.  i have yet to see them.  i had just lost my best friend to possession and at the time i felt as if i would only be able to have her back in my life as my lover or whatnot, and i was about to be going manic. i spent the end of june in a mental hospital legally admitted. because the show was canceled, my loving mother being the sweet heart that she is bought me my favorite guitar  an electric acoustic Fender Armstrong Signature model.  the next night i put words to the music i heard in my head while writing this letter poem.     i hated it but its the only awkward lose leaf poem that stood out when i was picking out a bunch.  i sort of hope you enjoy my past. i know i did



where i end and you begin
this is another lived without bringing up death

as the cold breaks you understand what i face

*
hold back before you **** me

learning living
giving what you're giving
googled human existence
gave me the confidence
to get on top of this
thing I've been living in
give me duty or give me respect
ate up the alphabet
and shat out some consinents
it spelt this planent and
i decided to stay with it

i live but don't pay rent
have a whole continent
dwarf planet royalty baby
woke up to clouds and rain

797 cleared for take off
979 quit your day job
live long, and play young
don't act your age dawn
age is just race by the man
telling you what you can't and can
i too would do that for you
but its coming from a friend
not how many year you been living
not struggle thats not he reason for existence
put on shuffle all the thing that you love you
won't hustle yourself too hard, and burn out
just muster up the courage make a dream true
and play nice

i made a dream
and saved it for a rainy day on pluto

*

I've been here to watch you grow up
longer than you would even care to think pops
i fear that i was the thing crushing your dreams
stop
thinking that i am here as a fail clearly winning ha



Breaking the Habit.
everything we know
is human.
humans even create
explanations for nature
anything human
will come to an end
we can not build anything
to last forever
we can not feel
anything
to last forever
we can not
last forever
in a world built to expire
there is no infinite anything
all that is infinite is space
and it seems the world has little of that
i can't think of anything more powerful
than an infinite vacuum of anything you would love
to last forever


*     * * * * *     *
every inch of our world
drenched, by the same water
over and over

endless cycle of repeating voices
noises visions of the noisiest
hungriest tool of destruction

demolishing villages
filling our oceans
filling our glasses
Bad displays of good hygiene  page 1
and i waited.
ever present sound, ringing my mind
killing me with hot things
that are just sudden impulse

tried to bring my knife today
found out this was not a fight at all
cringing ,still in your wake
your moves of a condor
slowly unfolding for me to find the fatal flaw
in your speech
and the things you had planned to say

they are not one in the same
i will never respect to see it that way.
i will respect to see straight energy
blinding the constant blare of a ripened stare


loaded with probably
killed with a maybe
Im sorry you had to walk all the way up
now and then, i wonder:
whats the world gonna be like when*
your heart stops pumping with compassion
and reality has lost sight of you
i don't really know but
i think that  
I'll never synchronize
to anything that brings me to my last day
when will i have i to lose?

----------------------------------
       *cold creamer in

my coffee.
     the steam, slowly deteriates &
   before my eyes.
prior to its disappearance
    i got a quick and
shallow glance
at the scrauol as it is lifted
into the air
sublime was the way then
in the murky November vapor
I love what i have
and all i have is giving me
hindsight? zero to 100 percent . epiphany.
some call it sin of gluttony
im loving how much i am feeling it
nasty cold december is tempting me
and I'm needing a bit more rest
than the amount you have given me
but i didn't even think about leaving
* i am loving my stay*
-----------------------------------
not the intellectual property of i but instead cherubs drifting in the past
taking glances in the rain
at the way it runs down your face
strangers still playing silly games
suddennow let every thing change
hey now hey now
dont make this harder
hey now hey now
you dont mean this right now
hey now you dont have to change
but you know you cant stay the same

taking you out in the rain
along with the way you hurt me
but dont realize it youre perfect
thats why i dont need you to change
but i cant have you stay the same
because we both know the way this is going
thats it will never ever be worth it
hey now hey now
dont make this hard now
hey now hey now
you dont have to walk that far now
better stay changing babe
