We have been guilty
when the mind takes over

heed the human debris

but let the ego    go

it does not need
to be taken hostage

OR

Smacked in the face

lend a soulful ear, instead

don't test the waters just yet

see it
for the ego wants to
be seen

then proceed
with extreme caution

until you feel the
depths of your being
anchor you

let go

move in the heart

Then

every action
will be exactly what
is needed

let the cleansing of
time wash over you
and move in peace

Nylee

I am a moonchild
Turning colder every night,
Hiding my face,
little more these days

And you

No love, for us?

Stabbed in the

back for "becky with

the good hair."

never-ending smirk

wielded to that

bombast head

My feet

not kissed

These parts

You missed

betrayal is as ancient

as a sacred

***** mistress

I carry her with me
a silver sun
Her shade cool
like praise
for pretty girls

Mad and
hair full of venom
she leaves their
mouths agape
flesh to stone  

she is awe-ful
the curse of hideous
she fears nothing
but the forgotten
empty of the black void...

He is double-sided
and speaks with a second tongue
There are legions of him
sneaking out from under stones
casting spells
to win you over
would-be plasticized trophy

He will bamboozle you
with the nectar from his lips
He's no sir lancelot but
a shapeshifting
boogie man waiting to
kidnap you and
hang you on his wall

old light. there's
mold on your
information.

your me
is flipped through
photo album. i am

somewhere between
the solar spasms,
deleted and spatial,
****** off. holding

no grudge, i
just can't care
that hard anymore. all

i want is
soaring silent synths
and eyes, mine, closed,
holding vacuums on the lids.
