I say stupendous things
To scream out silly feelings
A writer, or artist, or ***
But you won't hear nothin'
I'll breathe and die it all
Rutted in my own words
These are my thoughts
Nothing gives me pause
No cause, no reason,
No season of giving will part me
From each little catastrophe
Greedy, I ****** each little grub
Seedy, my thoughts ache and rub
Against the only barrier I have
The skull that protects my stash
A poor man has but words and spit
I've got more, but don't give a ****
I'd throw away a kingdom of gold
to reclaim the last piece of my soul
Because I love my thoughts where they are
Since they can never run away very far
And I like stagnation to go with
My sweet libations
Ravings of writer, artist, or madman
I'll never be the one that had them
These are my treasures
Each is counted, each is savored

I slink into a suit
A new skin
All scaly and serpentine

I hop into the car
A new beast
It growls and thunders away

I stride into the room
A new throne
The kingdom of my desires

I stumbled away
The farm house, the poor house
I left the dirt, I climbed the mountain

I fly today
The pent house, the big house
Today the world, Tomorrow you heart

A crooked smile
And half again the nose
Nature's best gifts

But I've got wit
And half again the charm
Nurture's best gifts

There's a violence in my timbre
A hunger in my arms
I call to your sister
To find out where you are
Strength leaves my soul
and settles in my heart
I know I will not catch you
You already are too far

These clicks and lights
Can't save me or you
Its not as horrible
as fate could provide
I might still prefer
A warmer space to hide
My brain is comfy
But my body decays
I'll be free of longing
One long away day

That electric hum
The fans blowing heat
Painful white light
The gloom that cascades
Surrounding the beacon
Which keeps my mind
Away from its worries
Static Drug and Cyber Dealer
Life line for my sanity
Lethal injection for my bravery

I remember your smile best
