you told me you want to create
beautiful art
and i can't understand
how you don't see
that you are already an artist.
you paint your stories on my skin,
masterful watercolors
in deep reds and clear blues
your every word is a
drop of paint
that i carry with me.
i am a willing canvas
for your beautiful creations
She is my artist.

You're chattin' her up
in your suit & tie
with practiced posture
and polished vibe.

She thinks you're cute.
Her friends say you're nice.
and you keep it going
til them ******* fly.

You've played this game.
You know the score.
A few more drinks
and the *** is yours.

Your lines are smooth,
your motives insidious,
so don't forget the Trojans
or she'll give ya chlamydia.

It's just a "Players" way
and it works like before.
You promise a ring, a house
and she's down on all fours.

Goodbye creativity
and good riddance.

I can no longer stand to be myself.

Goodbye creativity
and good riddance.

I'll put my independence on the shelf.

Goodbye creativity
and good riddance.

Its useless now to disagree .

Goodbye creativity
and good riddance.

It better instead to fit in, don't you see?

Goodbye creativity
and good riddance.

Its scary to do your best to stand out.

Goodbye creativity
and good riddance.

when you're a freak to the rest of the crowd.
The Odds
of you, in particular,
existing at all
are of negligible significance
relative to
the relative fact
that you,
in particular,
do exist at all.
Wrote this in my little pocket journal while walking around town.
Twelve hours of sleep 
Feels exquisitely lovely 
When I can get it.
Come here
Accept the unaccepted
They need someone to follow
And you're the only one elected.

You will find me
between the flight to heaven
and the journey to freedom.
