Slithering under my shoes
Colors and hues for stories

Floating under my toes
I see my worries

The shelves crashing down
Destroying the stupid crown

Distracting myself from truth
When I ask questions
I already know the answer to

******-session
Counseling the repression

Of happiness on my surface
Now …
I know enough to know
I truly deserve it.

Today’s introversion
Of mental conversion
Is a dark demonstration
Because I see them
Drilling conversation

They aren’t here.
We burn candles
Because the lights are out
We disappear

Deep down
You asked
Who we are?
You run to us.
You know where to go
And how far

You cut our wrists
You push us off our throne.

Adorned with sorrow
You know who we are
For us …
There is no tomorrow.

With the rupturing of the body
And splitting of veins
I unleash pain
Wrapped in chains

I’ve taken each desperate pleasure
And wrapped in a beautiful measure

My skin destroyed by naïveté
Breaking my bones
And crippling my day

Inside my body is engaged
Poison on my wedding finger
My body ends the battle
Asking to be enraged

I cling to the temperature
Warmed by a vision
And cooled with a light

I lost every battle
Weakness and strength
Power and might

Almost drained by a perception
That my life is complete
Dripping with confession

Inside my body is engaged
Poison on my wedding finger
My body ends the battle
Asking to be enraged
  
With the rupturing of the body
And splitting of veins
I unleash pain
Wrapped in chains

A needle in my eye
Injecting my sight
Evading the light

I was graded in solitary youth
Molded by a truth

My tongue saturated
With a souring tease
My words backwards
They always bleed.

With a finite wire
With a touch that is dire.

I was graded in solitary youth.
I was molded by a truth.

I want to stop it now
My feet have always walked
A thousand miles

I listen for the placement
Of my different pretext

Biblical reruns
From temple and mass instruction
Encapsulated maps
Calculated construction

Don’t ever follow me
The time machine breaks

I never hear
I’m always deaf  
Never blind to fear

Tearing my shoes
Wanting and desiring
Everything used

I want to stop it now
My feet have walked
A thousand miles

Inside fleshly plumbing
We hear humming
The voices of birds
In rapture of peace
Living a short life
Just like you and me

Crummy digestion
We cry against the wall
Screeching sleep
We awake to hear a call

Shattering your life
With a blinking thought
All too soon
We both are caught

We run pass the windy greens
In a maze
Remembering all the dreams

Lost in a grainy storm
Our thoughts subside.
We are gone

Obeying the orders
Programming our cognition
On an assignment not our own
Drifting on a mission

Leave me to my thoughts
I sacrifice emotion
To ride on a ship
Her name is devotion

Torn boxes shadow my life
Knotting my disposition
Folded in meditation

I expose my condition
On the heads of many
I send a message
I try to give plenty

Branching to peace
Realizing the light
I ****** the energy.

Healthy explosions
Writings on the wall
Staring at myself
I suddenly hear the call.
