A More Bloodied Brain

the clustered up foggy breath, my molded basement, my solid brain teased me. I ran, I ran further than I thought I'd ever be found. The worst part, I turned myself in. I know it won't be long, until i fight this feeling once again. This is a Hell's Winter. Remember, tip-toe and watch your back. Speak less, and you'll remember the name of the game. In my dream, the Nike Corporation set flame and fire to the development, cookie cutter, fucker houses. I raced away in car full of hopeful and dirty kids, who knew a better place to call home. And even home can feel like a smothering mess, so what then? Will there be a day that this paranoia will resist the simmer setting? Pick up your swords, don't forget your guns, and please wake me up. These dreams scream for a louder life. school-books, normality, sobriety, gravel underneath my skin. And just when you thought puking until you were thin was enough, you're kicked in the gut. Bleach-blonded bombshells, breaking barriers, crossing borders, barring resistance to breeze through your body. When I die, please bury me with my brighter side.
