Silence and shapeless images Dancing naked on the edge of a sword We are spinning our breath into meager sediments And what’s left are my only relationships Is this my retaliation against the blades of oblivion Why must I always be eliminated right before illumination Or the combustion of concrete symbols like carbon atoms As if my soul was undergoing oxidation It's unconscious really that the instant we need to be aware We take a break from concentration and fall into silent reverie A shining monotony as the moon Lights the way to our observation towers We are heavy as daylight and lonely as an empty windowsill Whenever the sunlight shines luxuriously upon it We are human beings doing but just barely used to using Our unlimited and never-ending powers of imagination If it's not elation that makes us escape our innocent privations Then must we be immaculately nascent Or veritably complacent and understated In our jogging shoes and self effacement strategies You have the blues and the reds too The vibrations echo and they become your only decoration Mellow and sedated we escape our approximations By just getting a little more naked and familiar with our shadows We shake our shoulders and shift our weight back towards the basics As we get a little older we fold our best napkins in our pockets And reposition the sockets and the clocks by our nightstands To tell time just how we would like it to be Exactly the way it was right before we died to ourselves Are you understanding my odd way of speaking Listening to the rhyming water as humid arias fall short of permutations We are negotiating with contemplation’s namesake Underlying visitations from our highest escalators Concentrate and digest, we move forward And caress the feathery fingers you have bared too often We are clever and undefinable formulations Monkeying around with the substrate of our eradication I speak elated seances and fancy equations Which underlie our negated vituperations A Motley array of monkey business Fizzles in the vaporous mist It's an evaporative way of saying i love you We are tender and tangential We are offended by the examples you forget to administer In your haste you restate the laziness of a piece of paper towel To reply to your confessions Underneath the premonitions you make Is something that tastes quite a bit like logic
