whatever.  i'm so clever.  yeah.  whatever.  i can break the lame guys in when they give last rites. the deader the better the girls sigh.  open up to new norms.  electric rules the old worms.  fortune anorexic wonder. blonder, longer, simpler, subtler.  partial to the flower you think and forever after ....

"Errant on the initial perception we sought to lessen misconceptions to none."
but put upon by reason, i call the kings on treason and smash them all for fun.
dodge the waves of lightning though they stand and say i'm lying.
i see how far they'll go to make this death defying.  so i
calculate probability of actuality to infinity
incredulity crawls close to profanity
spiraling seems to be
looming inevitably
undone

more than the water,
she ripples concentric.
alone.
but who isn't?
it needs to be written.
she needs to relive it.
again.  
it's her prison.
now the world and her daughter
decide how far she'll go
amen.  
heaven's risen.

spider boy one and spider boy two, the life of the boys in the buckley shoes.  remember their dancing their undead prancing like limbs on a wire of heartstrings and vertical movement a ghost in the moment fragrant talc and wax slowly flashes flash a pretty mouth on a pretty mask nightcool winds blow past their wings a paper dove a razor king

holi pigment splash on your skin.  tangerine, aubergine, saffron paladins.  a carousel of mourning veils in pretty pretty ruby red.  decadent dancing in the streets with no regrets.  whatever came the day before, i can't remember anymore. the drinks and streamers impugn disbelievers.

he came by an artist as smart as the hardest
word that i now know by heart
apart from a ‘semblance to his trembling  sibling
i can’t understand how he  knows
the cold and crude lessons were solemn and precious
like me when i wanted him home
the shame of the moment can’t change how you want it
so take it all on down the road
he promised in person but its me whose been hurtin
cause i always knew how it’d go

i see how the singer lets go of forever
and the drummer lets the tears flow
a wish and a promise to keep them both honest

but that was so long ago
we never knew them at all but we knew them
they always put on a show
they both got remarried in each other’s weddings
i can picture the words that they spoke
this song means it’s over but he’ll always love her
and she’ll always be rita’s ghost
