#pipes
Lucidly, your spite... Cares avid enough to share: Shift like the sands of a pipe Flirt, with the whole eye; to stare... Misery, I see your salvation In a heat, a whetted appetite Is minus, a callous intimation? Save a respect, the time to invent insight? A demand of virtue Guards and doors Floors and pardon's, have a clue Since we are so sore... I have saved a pretty many, also... Wishes nobody made, without another kiss Of life, with a burden in a causes soul Requited with surreality, we own their vices... The thief of salvation? Risen, ready, and raging jungles, to hope: A tarrying pipe, don't sin... When it is for the asking, like a calling to something besides the end of a rope...

What If They Did It, Anyway?
(Scene: A funeral service, at the graveside. Two mourners talking to one another) Duncan died then, so he finally gave up his goose. < (disapprovingly) Gave up his ghost not his goose! > Tis sad, very sad. < Aye, maybe twas for the best, I heard he'd been sufferin'... He's gone to a better land now. > (Looking at him amazed, having not heard properly) He what ! He's gone where!! He's gone to the Netherlands!!! < He's gone to a better land!  a better land!! A better place!!! For fecks sake! > (A lone Piper starts to play a lament by the graveside) (after a few moments listening) I love the sound of the poops. A lone **** in the wind....He's a fine wee pooper that lad. < He's a Piper not a Pooper! (under his breath) Only Pooper around here is you. (smiles to himself thinking) A Super Pooper. (smiles even more) A Super Duper Pooper. > Y'know he was quite a pooper himself in his day, was Duncan. I can still remember his pooping well. A Prize Pooper was Duncan, his pooping was often the talk of the town. < (sadly & dreamily) Well, no more will his...his poops be heard around the Glens. Only silence now and the wind....o'er the heather, the fields and the crags. > I'm not a bad pooper myself y'know. < (smiles)  I bet ye are. > < (thinks to himself) But the heather will bloom again, and the children, they'll play in the meadows.>

The Lone Pooper
thinking, thinking, thinking, but my pipes aren't working. the taps turn but no water comes out, the drought in my brain growing ever still, aching for a thought to grasp onto.

broken pipes
The pipes are knocking in the walls; groaning and dying. You roll to the other side of the bed. I roll out of bed and put a *** on. The lights outside are strewn in no particular order and just on the door; as if to say 'we tried'. We try until the pipes burst. We try until the coffee runs out. I let skynet tell me the news brief and sit here. I could be studying a way out of here. But I don't go in until after noon. I make another cup of coffee. Listen to Teagan and Sara. Look at ways to **** time... The pipes haven't burst yet, but they're still knocking in the walls.

The Pipes are Knocking In the Walls
Here alone i stand My feet are torn upon this land Where my heart will meet And with this hand I will beat I have my white rock Under my roof i will lock The pipe is busted now Oh hey there's that lighter i found There's the path that leads Bits and pieces that i need To survive this night I will be the thing that frights Knock at my door Maybe I'll get some more No, men are storming in Ask to sign with no pen All I've got is blood And this one diamond stud It will be the last It will be a thing of the past

Boulevard of Broken Crack Pipes
**** *** Am iDoing Making This Worse For My Self iJust Begun And Re Picked Up This iS Were iT Starts. Should Begin To Worry iTs Way To Early! Already On A Thin Line The Last Chapter iN My Life till My Death Story. iM Killing Me Slowly By Taking This Substance. My Times Ticking My Hearts Beating As iContinue To Use More Like Abuse. iCant Just Take 1 Line Or Smoke 1 Bowl And Save The Rest. iGo All About And Have To Do Every Last Bit. Then iGo On Again To Finding A Way To Get More Of it
