High on acid with steam-filled lungs; I call my poor mother and tell her I'm fine, I fetch my good brother and tell him to bring me the gun.

Quiet Thought
'What reality is this?', she giggled. Before a second had passed, she had ceased to exist.

Who, What
S.O.S. we're in distress require immediate assistance. Come quick as you can tell your captain, Old Man and pardon my insistence. We're sinking fast our ship won't last despite our best resistance. But as long as she floats get ready your boats to salvage our existence. C.Q.D. please talk to me as it is, we aren't left much persistence.

C.Q.D.
it feels pretty strange being called by a phrase that isn't my name

Title
Proudly standing, rigid trees    Swaying gently in the breeze We watch the shadows fall    Switches whip, the twigs are severed    Yet the mighty wood persevers Awaiting its next call    Day becomes night; sunshine ends    Branches soon begin to bend Raw bark peels in strips.    Autumn comes; the trees must fight    For each burning speck of light Drudged from unwilling lips.    We watch them quiver in the breeze    The axe-man comes to fell the trees The thinnest shall go first.    Year by year, the seasons change    We ignore the passing strange Stiff bodies, in one hearse.    No one knows if it shall end    The loss of foe, alike with friend Means sunlight for the living.    “What shall happen to them all?”    Still we watch the shadows fall A gift that keeps on giving.

Now
And I swam against the stream; Swept by currents and hit rocks, But I swam against the stream.

Against The Stream
"Regular Sized Rudy? Why do they call you that?" "Just look at me." Yes, look at me. Are the laces of my corset tied tight enough? Do I deserve lust if ******* show in this underbust? Is my masculinity compliant and where it needs to be?

I've seen heaven Wish it were my haven When I sought solace here They numb my mind They play my mind The things I saw there

Stolen Sleep
It is time to wake up from the languid daydreams that once I treasured so. The place that used to be a haven, an escape from life’s banality, now feels like a gilded cage. The mind wanders, untethered, through sunlit corridors of indolence pushing to see how far it can go. Tantalizing me with possibilities, never reality, this limbo is only good for the occasional vacation.
