so watch me fall
and twirl
around, around
dancing, in the air
i'll land somewhere
the motion, not so poise
will it hurt? its probable
so watch me fall
and twirl

Heat

open season fling
a trek to find stained teeth
morose mingling
a desperate boy in heat
i couldnt smell you, epeius
your craftsmanship please
out with, the bullshit
and face the buzzsaw
arsenal of cheese
a guest turned to a thief
clinging to a breeze
that soothes the burn so brief
matrix of soft lips, and cool tips
to catch the perfect minnow
you hero, let your hopeless
machine go

amans, laudem
tracing frayed seams
cold light
amans, laudem
tracing, frayed seams
tempt me
break me
no holds barred
letting
go

Daisy

and now what's left?
this dread loves waiting on me
my mind detests
that one i never thought i could be
she took the long way home
a way that i dont know
and sensed my legs were dead
i cant believe i went and lost it all
daisy dont go
i hate goodbyes
dont leave me with hope
i know i wont be right
i know
the fortune read:
faith mends a bitterfull way
i grit my teeth
turn west, and follow the bay
the teeming pests
break bread with me at the lake
a swarming jest - or threat - drew blood anyway
her portrait pressed
in snow by tread
and so it fled
among the passing cars

Kvetch's Song

i dont wanna breathe, anymore
counting down my days, by the door
pray the family fields, turn to ash
cryptic crops behold, strap the gat
forty odd degrees, that'd be right
cant a man like me, live his life?
rolling in the screen, take it back
fifth time youve been told, have a hack
found my lucky horse, number three
cursing out the tall, tall poppies
painted on a nose, lines of blue
ninth gold of the day, how bout you?
venti filters replacing teeth,
ripple in the horizon beyond my reach
the familiar sticks could never take its toll
k's on k's on k's on k's...

these days i try, not much
but i get by in my own time
but i still cant really cry
i saw his name inscribed so plain
i hid in shame
was the man i knew so lame?
forget my pride,
i'd sooner die than speak my mind
though it haunts me nine to five
thoughs days are gone my friend
its all a blur, its all pretend
just hold my hand
and brace for a hard lie
whats say we do,
all the little things we do,
got a chip on my back for you
not a thing to do
im shooting blind
take back what's mine
wont blame the sky
even if shit creek gets high (and it will)
he stashed his pain
deep south in vain
no words explain
till his death it stayed contained (now)
dont test my line
im hunting swine
and ill get mine
till the roads run red like wine
remember what he said
dont twist your neck for a new head
its not whats bled
its just whats left now get back on an ride
the hole,
as good as gold
and white as snow
and the ripples in the trees still blows
one door shuts
on another fine hole

wherever i could be
its not the thing i need
gives love a choorish mean
and funs a short relief
point out the grass thats green
to send my mind at ease
soulless plea
mind you, im feeling it out
between you and me, ive let myself down
seethe creeps, flys are about
mind you im feeling it out
im so ____________ ( do do do do)

Terminal Burrowing
04:37
|

The snows gone gray,
But It continues to blister my cheeks,
And squeeze the breathe from my lungs,
There is no moon, just a dim smear
Apathetic in its guidance
frozen organs of a deer blend with brown slush,
a truck passes by.
This road feels longer than it used to be, skinnier too
I now notice that the barbed wire tore a hole in my jacket
This was my brothers favourite jacket
Im sorry
A man asked me if I’d like a ride,
So I ran into the field
I think I’ll lie down a while

Barn

from a crack in the barn
dirt as far as the eye can see
at least from this narrow gap
i wondered what that dirt was like
as soft and fine as flour i bet
my skin starts to tear
if i can hold on a little longer
maybe i'll catch something pass by
if i had the strength, id hang on all day
i've thought about how it might sound
the machines are too loud for me to hear
again, i slip
the taste of iron
as clear as anything
the stars blur and multiply
(see all the earth and how it waves at you)
for a moment, the harsh winds stop being so harsh
i lay still
and cold, but still
(let in the light and watch it follow through)
for just a moment
the light from the crack
dims

sunday morn' let pumpkin out the barn
ten foot leash drags pumpkin 'cross the yard
up and down yr pretty nose
purple lesions purple toes
oh pumpkin gets a snakebite!
i got restraints, you just dont know
and with an audacious song
a daily for a week
oh pumpkin stay a while
wont you please?
oh pumpkin where'd you go?
yr weak between your toes
pumpkin yr turning green!

for one meek crow
id trade my eye
a friend or foe
just keep my side
close
where'd you go?
i lost my eye
i thought you'd stay
for sure this time
how'd you fall?
fall asleep?
knowing how
i could be
