Water the lawn so it won’t die
Passed out in the dandelions
Compose yourself and blaze a trail
Splatter it on the easel

Crack of lightning
False doors lead to nowhere
Can I pull this off?
No sense in not trying

Take what you need
And keep it forever
For it's all you have
All you need for a life time

Throw it and run
A tearful good bye
Trash and compost falling from the skies
I leave a note to explain

Re writes
Re write
I can’t bring myself to
Scribble regretful ink onto
An unforgiving paper
Smoke fills the room
Screaming, blind fear
Say goodbye hide run and hide
       -Tommy Johnson

It’s almost never too late
We’ll be safe here

Lick it shut
Blend in with the padlocks

It has stopped
For now
Brick layered
Vent away

It will never be the same
Security abandoned
Unfathomable evolution
Genetic paint job

Stuck
Waiting frantically
For our savior
The key to a fire
Is a relentless urge to burn

It’s happening
My imperfections
Clocked In at high speed
Surfacing my conscious mind

Swerve through the wreckage
The waste piled high
The wheels spin
I’ve got it I’m here
