Fragile emits of moonlight invade
this overshadowed room as I kneel,
always a slave,
always somber,
frozen here,
waiting.

Accusations taunting
from rot in panes of tainted glass,
looming as dust dances in the air,
forming an image in minds eye,
penetrating my naked flesh.
A reflection on humanity's face.
I raise my head proclaiming rights
to this oblivious salvation...

I have no name and have not seen
but. the places I have been
Thoughts of you and why you are
a mystery, a hidden sin

Another time and place perhaps,
a face to face to see that laugh
a smile I’ve carried in my mind
could I be warm, my distant half?

I could be wrong, I could be right
delightful wonder in minds eye
always wishing it could be
sadly come to and deny

A peaceful time I cherish much
although, knowing it’s a crush
someday, if not real I won’t see
the day when we just simply touch

You feel it coming
should be in, on and
around everything
Expiration Dates mean something
pay heed from the beginning
Ignore it,
fight a battle
backing zero winners
Flexing pure prays weight
cutting down
on the sinners

All of us are rotting
ever since our precious birth
Expiration Dates foretelling
of what we’re really worth
Ignore it,
face a conflict
stuck forever in debate
While I rest adjacent
decking your
days hate

All men created equal but,
don’t practice what they preach
Expiration date’s approaching
we were taught, now we must teach!
Ignore it,
keep on walkin’ till
you know it’s much too late
a victim of
your own accord and
the next stirred Nations fate

Hello again my friend...
Friend?
By you calling me this I suppose
I’m just to forget our last encounter?

I was hoping...
I smoked you away last time
and swore you’d never return!

Ahhh, but, I will always be a part of you.
I may have to hear you but,
that doesn’t mean I have to listen.

Oh, inhale all the hemp you want,
I’ll still be here waiting for the plane to land.
Not if it ends up being my final call you know,
planes have failed before.

You’ll be like a Kamikaze,
chicken, you don’t have the *****!
Why should it matter any ways,
two birds, one stone,
you know the saying...

But, it’s not two birds you fool! It’s one,
God you’re an idiot!
Okay then, if it is only one and
I am an idiot,
wouldn’t that make you an idiot too?

Precisely...
only difference is,
is that I never minded being an idiot...*

“Last call (last call) for flight (for flight)
number (number) 666 (666)”

Well, that’s us, see you when we land...

Topsy, turvy,
∩dsıpǝ poʍu
as if no
gravity abounds
∩dsıpǝ poʍu
within my mind
sobriety now
hard to find

Vitae rushes
pounding sounds
with head hung low
‘bout ∩dsıpǝ poʍu
Distortion’s clever!
I’ve had enough!
∩dsıpǝ poʍu,s now
right side up...

Douse ye flame snub thou to ashes
Bury well thine reserved stashes

...and plead tears hath no mercy
CURSE YE!
Sir, see your deeds cause pleurisy
Neural’s feed off chaos’s vitae stench
whence did ye awaken as a corpse?

Denounce ye faith scrub scour ye caches
Hurry, Hell’s cries serve blasphemes

...and in thine end a fury
WORRY!
For ye shall be judged and juried
Scurry til ye nails wear to a dusting
lusting for a life once lived no more...

Statements proceed much further
(Further)
then a wicked wind does blow
(ya know that)
Penitence abounds as speech,
unmindful leaves ones soul

Utterances pierce tongues of few
(yet)
thrills a myriad
(no matter)
Be it ended with a question mark,
a dash or period.

Formulate all that you crave
(Crave)
within thine own confines
(you know that)
Utterance views not through ears
to slip free from the mind.

Remember, once a phrase takes flight
(And flies)
it can not be retrieved
(Can it?)
Unless you’re faced with a Mentalist,
conversing as they read.
