Strange Rave
Hooflip Mar 2014
Your night,
Fueled by the throbbing bass
My night,
Fueled by your melting face
and I realize the only difference is the inferences.

The Kitchen sink,
stained with *****,
decorated in broken bottles.
Empty spaces extinct by strange faces,
some of them had cartoon eyes and
for the first time in my life I felt my shoulders needed to breathe.

Together we all broke the floor.
The laughter right after let you know
what kind of house this was.

"Hey, I'm Shane, whats you're name?"
"I don't have a name"
and she walked away,
Nameless,
but we both know more then we did before.

The constant pulse
made every second the first
until the red and blue lights
came to save the neighbors nights sleep.
Strange Raves are lame on acid.

Step Patient
Hooflip Mar 2014
All this hot water's just a cold,
Waiting to happen.
And all them words spoke's just notes,
Under the mattress.

You gonna come back
Move forward with me
Wait, step patient my two lonely feet
Into the cold water turning lukewarm,
It's just waiting to happen
Optional notes are optional

No Room Left For Breakfast
Hooflip Mar 2014
Dreary morning
Morphine drip makes it taste better and
there’s no room left for breakfast.
I traded in bacon and eggs for nicotine and coffee stains long ago.
Or so it seems.
I don’t want any syrup,
She makes it all sweet enough.
Sure they can keep me alive,
But they can’t **** me like she can.
I’d rather die alive tonight than live to death in depths of debt’s regret.
Besides, I know I’ll wake up tomorrow morning
And she’ll be gone if tonight was good enough.
Unless I don’t know,
But,
What I don’t know can’t hurt me…
Right?
The weather told me to.

Waste
Hooflip Mar 2014
They tell me not to waste it
I mean,
Am I a waste just cause I get wasted?
There might be nothing to waste if I never did,
I might still be faceless.
No ***** to stand face to face with the pace of my placement.
I’m jumbled at times, sure,
But that’s just the trail mix and I don’t think anyone’s lived till they’ve climbed a tree as high as god made them to.
With the wind at my back I float on.
No friction, no fear.
My limbs grew fingers and my fingers grew limbs.
It’s your conventions that make me useless,
And in my world you’re just a filler.
I won’t forget the talent that your god gave me,
don’t forget the free will he gave you.
And with all you think you know,
how dare you waste a righteous word upon the wasted,
when you already know what I’m going to do
With this little light of mine.
I'd like a cheeseburger, with extra pickles please,
And a french fry oh make it a large,
I love you.

Howls Like Hounds
Hooflip Feb 2014
Begging for a flame
I’ve got of stick of dynamite
Wrapped in a fist of bad intention
So get me a ******* light

Oh yes I’m begging for a fire
Just a spark and my desires
A reality, no shaky knees wont ******* me,
I’d rather die a killer than a liar

“Breaker Breaker Call the doctor,
The police, this kid needs locked up
Heard the earth bends to his walk up
Heard he howls like hounds in slaughter”

I am the doctor
I am the pastor
I am all that’s right with disaster
I am the spell and
I am the caster
I am the god
I am the casket

Trampled traps tripping
The mass of dim witted we
Latch to cat nip
Distract from the withering
Ashes and little league
Passion belittling
Cash, ***** stamps, the man, and artillery.
You are powerful.

Yards
Hooflip Feb 2014
Spaces in the grains of sand
Since I have parked my arch on parchment.
Places paced to, paces ran
Stepping stones,
Coasts through apartments.

Yards,
We all live in yards,
Traveling in cars just to hop inside a box,
Locked,
Break out with our thoughts,
Yes we are free to leave, but we won't be free for long.

Coming to and running from the palms,
The running come and go the same, no
They don't stay for long.

My ankles ache for something stable,
Striking chords, cutting cables,
Faith in Cains to make me Abel,
Cracked and hollowed by a fable.

My little Jelly Bean
Oh you're so sweet
Stick to me,
Like the sugar in my teeth
And, Oooooooh I got that sweet tooth
So, Ooooooooh I can't get enough of you
It's true

Because you are the greatest
You helped me make this
This song that I'm playing
This smile that is patient
I know we'll grow ancient
Remain in these paintings
My baby stay stainless
Embrace this amazement
We Are.

Reaction
Hooflip Feb 2014
Though I speak with heart and soul
Hardly do I get reactions
Work my craft in circle's full
The pride of lions in my passion
Action, action
Interaction is the gate to benefaction
if it strikes you send me hearts
yes, send me satisfaction.

I do it cause I wanna teach
I do it cause I wanna learn
Oh, don't you go hiding away all those emotions we've all known.
I do it cause I wanna grow
I do it cause I wanna know
That there is something more to all those puzzle-pieces in the snow.

So send me a reaction,
Good or bad, at least there's traction;
I've got thirty thousand beams of light that need to be refracted.

Static (Channel 5)
Hooflip Feb 2014
Channel Change

Different number but it looks the same.
Oh how I miss the static,
How the tiny dots would re-arrange.

Staring Fascinated
Wondering how they have caged it
Floating ageless in the matrix
                                                      Till
     ­                                                        You
                                                             ­       *Thought
..
                   You saw the tape end.

Blank Screen.

Meditate;
You finally got to medicate.

"I think I shall replay the tape just to make sure my head is straight."
Oh how I love the static,
How the tiny dots all rearrange.
I'm staring, fascinated.
"All these dot's seem to depict my age"

I think I see a pattern.
Think
                            I
            T­hought
       a
                             Thought...
I
               Think
Seeking heat to make the ash burn;
Just a sly and subtle wink.

Yin and Yang all twisted shifting
drifting, what a colorfully monochrome experience;
       Gee,
Ain't the static wonderful?

Shots,
Another casualty.
Shots,
She only battles me.
Shots*,
She* thrives on lots of shots
at them, at her it's blasphemy.

Calling all the pharmacies,
this sanity's alarming me
A moments silence, thoughts are stinging, ringing, and disarming me.

Armed, am I supposed to be?
Pushing all to close to me,
My fingers multiply as I divide this "how it's supposed to be"

Is this how it's supposed to be?

Seasonal Drag
Hooflip Feb 2014
Back then the radical were few and far in between
Now there’s one no more then ten cracks from every corner
The bar has been lowered,
Exponentially,
On what amazes.
The words we use have been weakened
By the weekend.
Oh it is a beautiful thing, if used correctly.
Linguistics mixed with hedonistic freedom
Never to forget the balance of fantasy and intellect
Theories and Fairy tales
Fables and Ideals
All the while in the throes of mystical madness

Have a bit of genius if you’d please,
Don’t mind the psychosis, It’s just a..
Seasonal Drag

“You’ve always got to find something to conflict with
And something to coexist with”
Said the human mind

The ever rumbling sense maker
The creator and taker of breath and chance
The Feeling factory in which we’re all constantly
Clocking In at.
The Decider.
The world within us so expansive one must toe the line or
Forget there is any outside world at all.

No one can explain it all
But we must take part in it!
Even if that means for us to
Pick apart the parts in it

A Piece of me, A Piece of you
Is peace in us and I conclude
That neither I or you
Are obstacles, we’re one
We’re earth,
we’re truth.

Namaste.

Oh and when I wash away
Please let me imitate the tide
To come inspired by the first
With all my lessons left behind

For in a single second lies eternity
I must be learning
Not to crack the pattern:
Catapults, coastal cities burning

Be the wave
Be the water
Be the wind
Be the daughter
Be the son of the Sun
Be the shepherd
Be the martyr
Be the fire
Be the dirt
Be the life
Be the earth
Become one with our mother

Recognize the worth

Don't hold your breath unless

Welcome home, you've finally joined the rest.

Everyday we face a choice of choosing

Everyday we choose the first but choosings getting boring man...

Gotta be an animal

Roll on from the casual red.

When its just crying out for help
These swelling tears in circulation
Telling me to be myself.

And I could walk away,
Just waiting for the high road.
And I could talk all day,
About the lump that’s latched to my throat.

You wanna hear my heart?
It’s being muffled by your boots
Think its gone away, retaliate,

And I could walk away,
Just waiting for the high road.

Try to catch so many fish,
all lined up and still a wish
but all you need is one to feed
A family of empty seats

Relationships, the howling sea
has sunken bunkers worth of these
down with the ship and float to shore
the constant soak assaults my pores
The salt, inside my skin it pours
Diluted but it's growing pure.

So on my dock I fish in peace,
To feed my empty family.

Life
Hooflip Nov 2013
Please never marry with menial minds;
Explosive corrosion displayed and defined
A moment ago, they were smiling and fine
A moment is torn and thrown to the divides
“The light, is it coming?” I ask the divines
As I tear at the windowless walls seeking shine
Leaving tracers and tracks, it resembles a map
It’s the past and I’m trapped with these walls still intact
I won’t follow the streets I bleed,
Leaning on the concrete,
I look above to see
No roof confining me
Climbing I finally see
Bleeding has blinded me
Scream at the top of my lungs: “Yes I’m finally free!”
Over the edges of my cage of dread
And I’m eager to finish these scenes of torment
Thinking this is the end, oh yes this is end
I descend to the ground, and the streets are all red.
Yet again…

Hooflip Apr 2013
Fall away from my arms
Comfort coincides with harm,
Careful contemplations shred
My shifty stitched up heart

You left your kiss upon my wrist
Its all you ******* are
A gentle plot of skin twisted
And tangled to a scar

I see you in my shadow
You surround me in the dark
Darling I sit beneath the sky
Left blind and searching for a star
Bizarre how all you ever told me,
Lonely, all you ever said
Held a consistency of virgins
Urging maidens to their bed
I'm broken
Smoking round the clock and
Hoping i will hear a knock
But not do I expect, a sudden breathe
To bed me into shock.

You always said a little less
Than what I would have liked to hear
But now your little less is gone
And silence is my only fear.

I am so dependent
I am so disfigured
I am so lost between the fields
Of idleness and vigor

I've become a wreck
Stepping confidence on ice
A moments soul into the air
A moment sure is nice

The pavements far from painless
Actions act as faults, i'm down
The rains left me mistaken
Broken back, in drops I drown

Comfy in a casket
In a polished suit and tie
See a breath, I grasp it
Gasping as I realize

It isn't mine.

Foundation found in the mother of the bricks
Neighborhood gossip, chirps and clicks.
And the mileage,
Flying highways horizons
Followed by frigid winds, they migrate.
And man,
Stomping
Furious and curious comes cutting down with chain and sound
Foundations of, profound consistency.
Bird song...
Chirping blue in the melting landscape,
Prevalent wingspan
Feathers fall into shadows travels.

Your soft embrace makes today okay.
Makes me look back to yesterday,

Like life itself, we continue (Last)

They publicize Education with promise of security. Falsifying all your leizure and reward.
Yet,
While you drown your accounts with tallies and numeric rallies they develop the technology to summarize, tax, bill you with your debt and fill your mold in the position you strained and craved for.
Broken and stacked back rattling
You stand on a pile of panic and,
Manicly fade into the grave they plotted, and you dug.

Technology is our downfall.

We see the button and push it
Free of refrain.
Curious, instantaneous passionate trust in all the oncoming waves of silicone information.

The image is cast;,..
It attempts and so succeeds in including you in this performance
This, plastic
These fading lights.
Everything
              Burns
                     Out

So it seems our nation is fueled by a finite flash.
With the filaments finally finkled out, the bright idea gone,
The shepard is shot and the sheep are frenzied.

As the population grows great in numbers alone, the engine is fixed with rusted parts and the plan...
A long, smooth drive with the emergency brake cranked the whole way.
We'll see just how far mediocre runs,

through an evergreen melancholy.
persistent as the wind
his mind resides upon a change,
adventure. destination
setting sail or, harbor pain.

he speaks, in the unconscious rhythms
that escape from his chaotic, symphonic, conscious.
his perspective aches with window panes
he states in humble solace:
"i'm left to face the rain again
I'm right to turn away
I'm up to turn around
i'm down to turn it up and sway
I've never really traveled
past the gravel at my feet
but with all these sticks and stones
i'll build myself flying machines."
