“A solider wandering alone
Around people in masks
Like an innocent soul surrounded by evil spirits
No longer alone just merits in lockets”

In the back of my notebook
I'm writing letters of sorrow
Not sure what to call unavoided Tacenda
Help me escape this hysteric agenda

As the ink bleeds out of my pen
And the tears run into pages undone
The fear of forgetting and being forgotton
It's the race I’ll never out run

For the plot of your life isn't your choice
Questioning desires and is it really your voice
Directions you take make no sense
Is it truly there only for suspense

Haven't done this in a while, but I got a pile
Its funny how I've got speech but I'm speechless
"She said it first" you'll say, all I know is once upon a play
Holograms  of cats, aren't I full of poetry

Styles of fear is what brought us near
"Alas" its us and I don't want it to fall apart
Rivers of coffee, we drank with a frown  
Aches in our stomchs as we chuckled but withdrawn

Mysteries hidden in silent patients
But you're the girl with a guide
I'll call it what I want, but you're the one and its been fun.
I'm sitting here on a Saturday where it all begun.

Again, "you're power, full of beauty"
Again, "its majestic. Are you dimond jewellery?"
Rewind, your childhood, its now, its us!
Rewind, the scent of the rain you're just a child

Call me, when you need me
I'm the shoulder, I'll be your shelter
I'm following the lead, you're my light
Don't worry I'll dust the rust off you'll shine bright

sometimes you perceive things
as they
aren't

and some will look at the ground
and never have to look up

and some will stand in the sand,
and not be held by fingers twisted with fate,
gaze up at the stars
with wonder

some only look down
to watch their dreams fall
to the ground


and then there was

Cathy Brown

I wrote
"I love you"
on a napkin
got caught in the rain
on the way to her apartment
and when I gave it to her
and she unfolded it
there was a beautiful flower

I never told her I love you
never had too

the light in her eyes
the twinkle of stars...


I was watching an old movie
and the make up artist
was

Cathy Brown

while I dipped
my ******* in the holy water
of madness???
why not write a poem
I loved the name so

the touch from her fingers
kept me sane

some dreams never vanish...

do you believe this **** I wrote
sometimes I need
to not
get serious

I love you Cathy Brown.

Ineffable.

As I dive deep into woolgathering, all I have is blind neural hearing
Answers only my mind filled with void won't suffice.

challenging a numb skull," isn't that just dull"
embody a soul that could never be full

hold on tight
breathe in, breathe out, breathe light

divert attention, to a dimension for another temptation,
coming to an end with zero homily, pretty uncommonly

only wizards could turn us into beautiful lizards
