Track 1

So tired yet so awake

I sit at the edge of an ellipsis

crimping the charred innards of my tattered soul

to make a masterpiece of gore

and internal war.

over the years of self loathing

I finally love myself

but getting ****** up feels ****** perfect

and watching this world unfold anew with each hit

or shot

rocks my mind

unkind but exemplary in it's own fortitude

to prevail my own veils

aside they're cast and fumbled with

as thick smiles seed

and the pace is set for the evening

I can't help but think that leaving

could do me good

but who backs out before the last shot?

who leaves before the deafening toll of midnight?

Cinderella's umbrella of security

and purity

is at jeopardy

and with great haste she wastes away the good looks

for late night *****

and nicotine

forgetting to clean

her closet of supreme validity on

the functioning teen

trying not to be mean,

but completely obscene in gestures

with the barbie's manufacturers groping for caspers

in the utopian disasters of the girl they forged

many decades back, but lost track

of the track that played that summer night

in the moonlight of immaculate humor and love

above all the oozing essence that manifested

now tested, for virtual ******

your cerebellum will tellem the positive

credo

that we all know is hooked on the days drift wood with

byzantine benzodiazapines to guide her haunted spirit

till

the cracks turn to crevasses and prehistoric protons mate with electrons

in the vat that is abrewing to plot the lies

watch the skies fade to grey as it may

be about time for the ecliptic rhymes to find

reconciliation

in the bladed grains of mortality and sigh

for being high in this lowered juncture

of subsisting future

buys you time to mull over such a daydream

as your last breath
