lady avalanche
only sighted in silhouette
has some fixin' to do
has thrown down more than a few
write the wrong word
fillet a flightless bird
talk about 'delusions of sobriety'
i would like to be sober from delusions
i flew in from yesterday
with weighted wings
knowing no one is waiting
in the wings for me
night is the
love of my life
every knife
knows how to fight
murder of the clock
worlds come to a sudden stop
i didn't see a thing
the blind detective always wins
there was a sound one night
was it heard?
i called with no answer
i hope it is ringing in your ears
siren's song to the beat of two drums
(cut it out, you know i'm waiting)

there will be
03:00

(nice to meet you)
the ghost core of my heart
has a rhythm i can't keep
the stairs melt beneath my feet
the coach has quit
bit by a beetle
whisper upward
"i thought i had seen the worst
fuck your all-new every day curse"
another poison test
saw off my hands
i have no plans
just rats
pull the cork
and let the spirits out
onto their weary routes
the call never ends
bend your head back
the snake-neck screams
in a rip
a little trip will connect
your dome and the concrete
i'm home with a foaming mouth
shedding again
cut me so i can grow back
smash my glasses off my face
(nice to meet you again)
there will be a next time...

echo [echo]
04:05
|
|||
|
shattered faces
distorted embraces
we need reverberation
we all need to hear an echo
overburdened
soak it in bourbon
a toast to the occasion
we all need to hear an echo
although some souls will cry
and aching hearts will shout
it may strike you on a whim
hit you with the sound of an echo
shock you with the sound of an echo

you must've felt hurt during the albeit brief
realization that you received no invitation to the
aftermath party
poison-tipped arrows filled the soon-to-be no longer
sunny sky like sparrows, barreling down as you looked
around to see each empty street surrounding you
only momentarily astounding you, as
all the hits sticked you quickly
well, maybe that hurt a bit worse than missing the
underground bash of the gashless
when they return to the surface they will proclaim
your passionate purpose as the present's protector
the lectures led in your honor will cause a small
portion of listeners to ponder how you were chosen
by ill-fate or great fortune? brute force or an algorithm's choice?
foisted upon a pedestal your former form
would decline to step on, not due to
wariness or lack of daringness. you were just
passing by, running a little late for unknowingly
cancelled plans
before being buried in blades all apparently awarded
exclusively to you
the most unique, yet unjust and unimaginable gift
given to a single simple soul
try somehow to enjoy the prestige, i suppose

how am i

lose this week
lose that year
i follow patterns
i think i recognize
from somewhere inside
past lives
last month
the slow crunch
comes and i
grin sadly at my
weakness
lose trust
lose hope
not the worst
except the first part
pain projection
reckless rejection
proving the evil inside me
could be true
i need to start war
and study
on how to
be me again
i am fucked how i am

painting every window with a sigh
you resign from the breeze
hovering on a note
rhyme and sing
everything you should know passes by
a pile of leaves rake your smile
hovering on a note
rhyme and sing
anything is worthless in between
branches break, climb your tree
hovering on a note
rhyme and sing

slapstick
rascal's kick
don't teach me a thing
expect me not to fall
don't touch me
i can feeling nothing at all
failing sun
seeks the moon
blast-back
show respect
you ask for truth
i'm ready to give it to you
my mistakes pile to the sky
i understand goodbye
failing sun
seeks the moon
peace erupts
self-destructs
it's never somehow unseen
there is no serene
madness captured captures you
horizons always appear too soon
too forlorn in
torrential storm
snowballs collecting dirt does
does all the rolling hurt?
i'll take note on my way down
left wherever i'm found
failing sun
seeks the moon

leave it alone

inviters of pain
05:01
|

my dear friend
don't dwell on faded yells
forget the sound of scolding
the cold burns worst
malevolence send the first
fodder to the front line
winter looms long
(or forever)
now to inviters of pain
did you think you were hidden?
do you think retribution is forbidden?
to strangle without aiming
for its finality, fatal maiming
is a cornered rat's game
mental manipulation
just the same
living in a valley
tally the cliff's silhouettes
aggressive actions are a losing bet
don't gamble with life
already lacking any
additional hold on hope
no rescue boats arriving now
no castle, hardly
remaining ruins
your only defense is a
worn down denim jacket
you better hope you float
are you hungry?
bite the bricks we
built to bide time
in our lives
already too difficult
before you arrived

i returned
my moving feet
kicked up a
bloom of haze
disturbed
the dust forms
an army of ants
i am so small
i see it all...
"i don't have
many regrets"
i say as...
i scrape my mind
and gather threats
in a bin, the world
needs no more ammo
to attack
my psyche
i'm likely to go missing
or deep danger fishing
endlessly wishing
silently singing
blood codes
forever old
i've been sought
now i'm caught
but i am lockless

a couple good days
don't replace the bad ones
am i supposed to smile
because the sun's in the sky?
my eyes won't let me cry
does that mean i don't
cross my fingers for the end?
there are so many packages to send
before i go
i want a piece of me
in every home, to
make that special person
feel less alone
we don't speak
we don't see each other now
so this is my final try
say goodbye...
who am i?
what am i?

I tumble through multiple days
Mania
Headcheck
Panic loop
Celsius
Zero degree reset
Loop
Rivers of wine (1:10pm)
Blood deep buried
Dogpile
Long power
Biochemical
and brute
He was a Masters (2:45)
Animals dead by the
river
Asylum Point
The Nite Dino's second residence
Where is Cheyanne?
I am alone and I am going (to fall apart) full robot
I introduced myself to
three bright letters
and many more...
silicon valley, sick to death
King of Texas
Where is your
Pancreas energy
and cruel orthodonture
West
East
Everyone breaks
The rules
Propaganda rays
and walls
News pings
Radiator pings
A circle in the woods
I hope no jerks
Linger today
So I can see Alison again
Pit us against our
Fellow human
Beings
Another trick or
treat scenario
I'm toxic
From highest hair
to lowest toe
To the fork in the road
