with a sledgehammer
and a pair of tweezers
obviously delicate
emergency procedures
at the bottom of this life
after all that occurs
has occurred impossibly
without combinations
existence becomes awareness
probably returns
obviously delegates
emergency procedures

walk through the world of loss
all the way to save a place
from everything that ever will be gone
that's when the crowds arise
with their faces brightly shining
through the meaningless hidden behind
there you are
like something to resemble
bye-bye, baby

alone
I wait for ways
to wear you down
so then you know what way I am
what weight I have
spiral
why swim at all?
I won
I want to
Taiwan
right onto
thigh bone
I'm underground
amazed
I wake from mud
amphibian
so wait
for what? some diatoms?
what way I am?

Life Rings Hollow

life began with dreams of you
but, baby, what have you done
with the perfect sky so blue?
sight and sound soon cease to be
so I took a little ride on the side
of the I won't be there
I believe in concealing the feeling
took a little ride on the side
of the I won't be there
life rings hollow
took a little ride...
life rings hollow

arise
arise
arise
life out of time
too late to be unborn
how has the lie
found a place to belong
arise
out of time
when there's no time for now
arise
and be unafraid
of what it means to die
arising
arising
arising
arising
it's over
it's over and over
the never ending
will never end
it's over
it's over and over
I don't believe it's true

Plea Bargain

I, I wanted nothing
filet my skin
sauté my love from within
outside of time
I come true
find, find a way to step inside this time of life
I found a way to get around time

Things

why outside
of a room with no door?
camera obscured
left in the hall
in the sediment of evening
I killed you while you watched
risk averse
to a shrouded sunburn
ethernet smile
while I dissolved
in the ashes of the evening
I killed you while you watched
choke me with mesh to smile on
restrain and embrace
lie down the stairs
blades of glasses
we never go outside anymore
porch light is smoldering
your spite fence crumbling
I'm teething
rope me into the quiet
lights off, I'm bleeding
rinse out my mouth
burned out and yet
not smoking family fire anymore
where do the sleepers lie?
lacerated goodbye
I'm leaving

Slowly For Awhile
04:22

|

solitary finds a corner
where the face can hide its features
from the innocence of those in love
rubbing off on broken glances
shattered into icon fragments
blind as the price of one on one
imitation loses reference
preying on the frightened senseless
now that memory has been undone
only after clouds have settled
in the place of what could matter
will there be another after all
