I've got a gravy train riding hefer and she's ready to deliver all the goods and the services that I never give her cuz she's mother ****** queen absalom in the directory's cut of the film that won a grammy and a mammy and made it all the way to flavortown in the south bahaman outback of queens land and ate all my chili beans so that I would be sad on a green day cuz I got granades in my ******* about ready to be pulled, and there aint no sunshine when she's gone, and there's only darkness every day, but she's never gone too long because I never learn to live without her anyway.

Excuse me, I have to ***** a sentence.
*My nature, once pleaded for one of these darling ones! The amazing hope only found in the fair women down here. A strength found only in the wilderness having the ability To drink bourbon until dawn being absolutely naughty And then the next morning to show you how to properly Use a fork and knife while signing thank you cards. To be raised up to all the heights any man could bear: Has my God ordained my fate to be southern reborn? Perhaps he has indeed given this soul another turn. Gullied without a patriot's name, have I lost my sense? Yet to be treated as if I were by law a prince. Am I so brave or just this Belle’s tool? I never saw a patriot yet that wasn’t a fool. Here comes she now with religion and the laws Should I be Absalom or should I be David's cause? But I am the instructor, or have I lost my place? She has taken me over with so much grace. Good heavens, how fast must a patriot pant! She stole me away by saying “A saint I ain’t.” Pulling off my shoes as she pulls me down from my throne I cross my eyes as I moan and I groan. A kingly battle within the sweetest of torments, Was their ever a prerequisite or my consent? The look in her eyes – flames, fire and fury – nothing to lose. Inferring this infernal night is ours to depose; Oh God it’s true she’s petitioned me to approve her by choice, But are not my hands still powered by my voice? So my pious subjects, for my safety please pray. I do think this Belle has taken all my will away.*

Sometimes we rant and rave here for no real value other than the release we think it grants, A release as real as the ****** everyone seeks. There is no release in this ether any longer, the words captured and dissected for all to consider, left us limp and wasted - unfulfilled. The facade created for legalistic cause, show your lifestyle to be rich and full, all it was is empty halls and vacant thoughts. Desires unfulfilled from the first, your facade. Breakfast, lunch and dinner on the hoof! Parties and settings to raise the roof, False invitation and another deceit Open the crypt of your own design. Lay in the linens your deceit bought - rest your head on the silken pillow, The door closes one last time And the blade is raised. Darkly - Kidron flows to its end Temple on one bank, mount on the other Dark with the blood of sacrifice Gethsemane calling.

Absalom Weeps
Aug. 9. When He Fled From Absalom. Lord how many are my foes How many those That in arms against me rise Many are they That of my life distrustfully thus say, No help for him in God there lies. But thou Lord art my shield my glory, Thee through my story Th’ exalter of my head I count Aloud I cry’d Unto Jehovah, he full soon reply’d And heard me from his holy mount. I lay and slept, I wak’d again, For my sustain Was the Lord. Of many millions The populous rout I fear not though incamping round about They pitch against me their Pavillions. Rise Lord, save me my God for thou Hast smote ere now On the cheek-bone all my foes, Of men abhor’d Hast broke the teeth. This help was from the Lord; Thy blessing on thy people flows.

Psalm 03
Counterpart opposite and depleted by measures of time. Time no longer counted upon And its hands that measures the distance All   one, two, three of them Watches closely with intuition as the minutes go bye. Resolute is absent and the balance of His nature Is unstable. Both have grown feeble, lacking interest. Burdened down by the weight of unevenness Absalom has risen above the absence of the absolute leading to a labyrinth. . Mystified by the maze, He Sits, counting backwards, rotating on an unhinged alignment, expounding the injury of His inventiveness. In another dimension of Himself, all one, two, three of them Helios is staggered as Cupid, The God of Dark Love’s Bow is broken. Now His equilibrium is faltered by the parallels between its thoughts. Wanting love’s incarceration corrupted no more He teeters on a stool in attempt to reverse suicide yet the ensuing ideology of procrastination’s pride has detoured His dilemma However in their misfortune, Love, hoping to be reincarnate into another lifetime, dissolves in its delusion. Time, in its barrenness discreetly measures the depletion and void, and the hands all one, two, three of Him sits opposite Being His Counter in Part

The Chronicle of Chronology’s Encounter Part
With the absence of Grace or transcended human morality there is silence so what do you believe when almighty Jupiter lays crucified in the caressing arms of Vishnu Christ bent broken over the knees of Mohammad what do you believe in Father? what do you believe in Mother? when Absalom ascends the throne and Daniel suffocates in the lion’s den what faith holds you speechless and chaste as the stories twist and burn to crash together on the endless palette of human belief the needle’s worn the groove too deep now the record won't play all we have to believe in is silence let the deity’s roll in celestial graves give me human interaction the touch of lover’s hand sacraments that bring more absolution than sorrowed sermons screaming out just to break that silence oh, la musique de nos collisions fabriquer laissent peu pour la l'âme à faux

Run Rabbit, Run, Alice is after you, Alice, The Madman, or The local federals- Given the chance, All would take a leg for luck, The hand of fate, Has passed you up, And here you stand, Hips in tuck, Saved in passing, granted luck- it turns out that I’m the Rabbit and you the Madman in the tall hat. You've poisoned the tea and spiked the punch with ACID! Oh Absalom! Absalom! Grant me safety in your smoky blue carousel, My legs have gone gimp, I've been running for days- The beast called Alice, Is drawing near, Her thundering steps, Are all I hear, This short-bread cake, Will quell my fear, Though the smiling cat, Will forever peer- His eyes are gleaming, Bright and blue, Iris sharp, Focused on you, No blinking, no moving, That cheeky grin, His frozen face, Softened by the gin- Brass buttons clasp, The muddied breeches to my belly, An everlasting coat, That drags in the dust- The smiling cat stoops his head, “To get beneath the branch”, he said, But really what I think he wants, Is to get a better look at my watch- If Alice were to find me, The game would be up, The treasure I've found, The sword, the watch, the cup, Lost to the ether, They would be found, By the big headed queen, In her rouge hearted crown- “Save me! Save me Queen!” I pleaded with the ***** No longer needing, My help or my time, She had found the gold, found the sword, And taken the crown- My uses were up, I was kicked to the side- “Oh Absalom! Absalom!” Will you help me now? Have I shown you my worth as a runner? All I need is a bite, Of your spotted toad-stool, A puff of your pipe, And I’ll be on my way- No help from the slug, I return to the tea-party- To sit and drink and make merry with the wood-folk- The Hatter has tricked me into his game, It has rendered me blind, His sweet tasting tea, Is playing with my mind, He says to relax, Take it easy, Close my eyes, He’ll see me again, Once that Red Queen has died- I like it right here, In my world of light and colour, I can’t hear anymore, Or at least I can’t hear the fuss- Though I know when I wake, That Alice will be gone- When morning comes round I must be prepared to run-

“I killed my son,” he said, fielding the catch in his voice, words plain, unwreathed with plea or pardon. “They say it was an accident, but I swerved the sled that hit the tree that slammed the skull that bruised his brain and knocked the life right out of him. I heard it slip away. Twice. I couldn’t get a handle on something so fluttery, went right past me real slow, but too quick just the same. Air, they told me, is what it was, escapes from the lungs when the brain is only matter. “Ten years old, curled up, a question mark on an envelope of snow. Death arrived and I, to him no more than a mitten or a cap, barely breathed as any creature does when danger seems close, a lunge or swipe away. He stood, his face beneath a mask, or so I thought, although I’d seen neither. “And then one night he came again, I knew, for me. Hours I waited in horror, to see what look he had or what he buried. The hardest work I’ve ever done, to will my eyelids up, to see--not night, not death, but light and love and morning.”

. oh absalom .
Absalom usurped the throne Ungrateful for his flesh and bone His heart as cold and hard as stone Declared his father’s house his own Absalom, who in his greed The fourth commandment did not heed Rode his horse at breakneck speed Anxious to see his father bleed Absalom, who would not see The just way for a son to be From all good sense with haste did flee And ran his horse right through a tree Absalom is way up there His feet are dangling in the air Caught up in branches by his hair Round the tree men stop and stare Trapped Absalom, the young upstart Had no one there to take his part Joab armed with deadly dart ****** it through the young man’s heart Joab thought the victory won The messenger did gladly run The King’s question was only one: What of Absalom, my son? The messenger confirmed his fears And David weeping manly tears Mourned his son’s lost unborn years To cut the heart of each who hears

Absalom
People I only knew in passing- Lovers on a hotel bed, lost in the feeling of controlled chaos, ******* until the sun signals surrender, the stars burning holes in their memories that cannot be pieced together again, Brothers in different hospital rooms, two halves of one whole engine praying for a spark, to be able to stand on ones own, IV drips trickling down dreams of a brighter morning to collapsed veins and broken synapses, Sisters in opposing time zones, living out play acted scripts of the same drama in various adaptations, the first act the divine comedy, the second act the hellish tragedy, we all tend to fall somewhere in the middle with these types of things I don't know where I fit into any of this I once thought I could piece together the story from the fragments I am left with, But they're nothing more than points in a vague interest, clean surfaces for drugs, nothing to write home about Have you gotten thinner? Has your hair gotten longer? Have you slept recently? Have you left your house today? How long has it been? How many cigarettes? How many inches of rain? How many sunsets? How many phases of the moon? The last time you spoke to a ghost what did he say? Did he mention me? I am living seance, forcing questions into spaces they have no business, My art is the hand that murdered Absalom, the hand that cuts the lines of pills, the hand that slits the throat of the hydrogen future The cool, slick ************ sitting wide eyed and high in supernatural pretense, in eternal condemnation of the enemy, Don't you know if you're broke and suicidal you can just blame it on the alignment of the planets? It could all be so easy

The music was crap and the singer went flat but the words sunk in too deep and drowned I rise in the lexicon Luther and Superman Marvel at me the comedian see how they laugh, On stage, one page, one more time Lois is mine but he's having none of it I give him kryptonite and he ain't laughing now. In the hanging of the gardens at Babylon where Maria met Joseph and got it on a baby was born call him Absalom. it's all mixed up because they fixed me up wrong a song for the stein in me? Frank has a line on me and somewhere I'm being reeled in.
