Dance ...dance ..dance
Tread carefully as you go down the path before you. Feel your feet roll over moss, as your tarsals adhere to sap. Let the breeze seep into your pores, and sweep away the daily struggles. Watch the leaves boogy in the sunlight, and join them in the festivities. Accept your surroundings Accept the awareness. Release your inhibitions... Synchronize your freedom... with the tree bark... melting... away... Love & let go.

Trippin' on Roots
Soul: ( to the self) If you'd just let me in you'd know what I've been through, on and in lower a bit that chin Desires need be kept within silent stay, don't you grin nothing heard, dropped a pin? Remember these just to begin (Devil) Deceiver: (to the self) Know that's you, you're the king above your head lies no string Evil? What's that a thing There's no bad luck to bring What keeps you so running know that he's bluffing he ain't that cunning See, the dark's quite stunning Soul: Graspeth, the light before ye fall the boogy knows how to crawl before makes he dark the hall Hurry! answer the Devine's call (Deceiver) Manipulator: What? the dope's back again manipulating you to refrain being dug under my crane Apologies, allow me to start again

'Soul vs Deceiver'
There are no hammers in my room. No tactical advances which need enhancements. no broken bits of furniture in need of further assessment. There are no screwdrivers. no holes filled with crack filling nothing willing to be cut. destroyed. nothing blotchy or broken. or to say this house is less than homely. There are no hammers. no holes filled with crack filling nothing willing to be cut. destroyed. Deconstructed. Detonated. No little lines on the carpet, no rusty pipes beneath my sink There are no razors in my bathroom nothing which brings blood from my retinas nothing stinks of mold, nothing sinks in the carberater escaping excavation measure the short comings of my makings, and takings, and tasks. There are no dust mites beneath my bed there are nothing but soap and cleansing masks. sleeping with the boogy man, sharing his head space, no naked, termites in my walls. skeletons in my closet. nothing that would appall an exterminator. nothing which says this house is less than homely.

Fragmented.
It was aboot ten miles away from your fate, when Taco bell and pigs decided to gang up, and you didnt realize it till it was too late, Oh, you knew what you had did, trying to pour back what is already drank, like winning the lottery, only to realize there is no money in the bank, The Mormon Virginia City had struck again, and took me down to a feeling of a non-man, where the screaming, the anxiety and the screaming anxiety all met, the moment you realized you lost the bet, between you, the devil, the universe, that one friend, the boogy man, God, and the lady down at the farmers market, you are an easy target, with a tough bullseye, and a sly, liar's smiling lips, it wasnt till that cold floor touched you, and your mind's lack of institutional control, had been realized, life had surmised, that the chances you had were faulty tests. Big John had taken your car with vanity plates, a joke you want to tell your mates, but realize the build up is all wrong, he was the picture of a folk song, but withoot the music and any good lyrics, a tow truck mentioned in poems you have never heard, telling him to hold onto that paper you signatured, "You're going to famous like everyone else when they go?" "I wont, but  I'll be nice in the poem everyone will know" He laughed and kicked you out. A new song that has a ****** tune, starts to sound nice soon, and you will appreciate it by your life's noon, rough memories turn into life lessons, that turn into rough memories, but you dont know you are in an ocean till you passed some seas, so you drive away from the  town that built the great **** with a face of weather, guilt, and an unknown nostalgia for the future.

I was close enough to see the lights.

Fell asleep thinking about the old house yesterday And the adventures in the backyard where I used to play Three acres might seem like a lot for little kid But I knew those woods better than my parents did My wooden teepee served as a safe haven When the world didn't feel like a suitable place to be in I dreamed about Max my old best friend Who kept me safe from nightly creatures and boogy men Just a dog who still has a special place in my heart A great dane who was five when the world made us part I thought about the overlook where we dumped our leaves I remembered the long days just me and the trees These days those woods have Max and Phoenix too The Golden retriever who got me and my sisters through Much of that thing we call childhood I didn't know it then but now I would Give anything and everything to go back And run wild through those backyard paths Then I was free, I did not care or notice That things weren't exactly how they were suppose to be noted Now I reside in this fowl world where I can't spare a minute Take me back to the time when my world had no limits

Take me back
before we know kindness we are silly moons a primal scream ids gaggle of wants having not yet understood our own vulnerability and its connection to others the agony of self uninitiated by the sacrifices yet to come in effect a criminal mind as a child growing up in brooklyn my friends and i would make a mad dash out of ching-a-lings chopsuey restaurant after eating sumptuously with out paying the bill electrified with terror and excitement at the thought of being grabbed by a chinese boogy man and laughing breathless when finally out of harms way sadistically delighting by the panic we caused as some red faced hyperventilating waiter caved trying to catch five little hell boys fury fast all adults were filthy rich compared to us urchins idling in the darkness and tenements sniffing glue in a number 2 brown paper bag hole in the pocket poor slow starters uninspired pressing through the dragging weight of a barren world not yet knowing we too will toil endlessly worry sick for loved ones and quake at endless indignities trying to eek out a living like the waiter we robbed of his pittance on this Sisyphean rock our lives stretched out before us a white knuckle ride between hope and quiet desperation struggling not to be swallowed through pitted black holes and fake floors into downward mobility our pin ball souls like small metal ***** jarred and knocked from one ringing bell to the next in a turbulent game player or not without an inkling of the fated dark signature written into our genes by deaths hand before we know kindness

When i first met you you told me you could do a 360 on a wave with your boogy board. I told you i liked to paint because you looked like a painter. First of all i was lying. I can't paint pictures but i love to paint souls. I love to splatter them with vibrant memories and to add on to your mind with soft strokes of pastels. I would love it more than anything if you were a painter of souls too. I need someone to paint my mind something other than dark moody red and browns. It would be lovely if you could paint me with yellows and teals and pinks. Maybe ill even let you paint my heart Maybe ill even paint yours.

Dance out loud
It's color is Black. It never stops. Ever. It'll take everyone without regret. You thought you'd be together forever. You were wrong. It sings it's deathly song. Taking everyone you know. Taking everyone's lives without a second glance. You have no chance up against the deadly reaper. It gets nearer and nearer with each passing day. But it won't take you. But it will break you. Until you're broken and done. This is no monster or boogy man. This is Death.

Death
The beauty I see is distorted I cannot explain why The markings around this fence Tells me to go in one direction But I choose to jump over it And go my separate way How well does that work out? Well, it brings heartache and pain I think I know better But what I know amounts to **** It doesn't save me from the real world I'm protected by what I write But I'm not safe in how I do things My actions are gaunged on how I feel So I run with that Instead of thinking about the consequences How pathetic is that I fight the demons inside But fail so many countless times Keeping them at bay They win quite often Should I be concerned about that? Should I fall to my knees? Many days the answer is yes Cause I'm just a fool Making things worse inside my head Thinking I'm not a good farther That my girl could do without me But then she hugs me And tells me daddy I love you So my guilt is just the boogy man And my perception about life ***** I need to follow direction And keep my head in the clouds Maybe I won't **** things up And just maybe God can forgive a man like me
