"and all explanation was frivolous..."
I was walking around with you, while I pondered very deeply the idea that there was ‘something wrong with me,’ that I should be the life of the party, the zest to the salad dressing…and that was a complete waste of energy,
for only once my head touched that pillow,
did I realize how exhausted I am, (I’m only up right now because I had to eat dinner)
but I am going to...

A processing of thoughts before I snooze...
to think you have discovered perfection, is to most likely be content with the perfectly mediocre. That is I’m not so sure that a person who truly thinks they have found perfection ever put enough effort, or thought for that matter, into the equation. Everything is full of spaces, loopholes, and to think that in the over flow of spaces, you’ve found an obstinate wall is to well, be...

Over flamboyant, he pulled more than two muscles when he smiled, sporting a tetra bandage wrapped around his mouth and his ears, ‘Why call it the common room, I have nothing in common with a business major?’ Now we all know that isn’t true, it’s how you chose to be compiled What is lawlessness if you’re checking off the laws you’re gonna break, what is...
Until Tomorrow Then...By Ed Harcourt
If the world did end Would you be my apocalyptic friend? Until tomorrow then If the skies did fall Would you pick up my last call? Until tomorrow then Navigate to the moon Flee the planet this afternoon Until tomorrow then With the waves rising high We’d be the first most likely to die Until tomorrow then I guess it’s you I miss ‘Cause I just stare at the ceiling My stomach knots...

Andrew Bird's: Lull
Being alone, it can be quite romantic Like Jacques Cousteau underneath the Atlantic A fantastic voyage to parts unknown Going to depths where the sun’s never shone And I fascinate myself when I’m alone So I go a little overboard, but hang on to the hull While I’m airbrushing fantasy art on a life That’s really kind of dull Oh, I’m in a lull I’m all for...
the days are my medicine, every morning I am reborn and healed, I am made new, I am unfiltered water from the Athabasca falls.
and those few statements that you make
jut into my solar plexus.
like gravity pulling the streaming water, like streaming video live through the news feed in my head,
cascading,
cascading.

thoughts of the day...
my hands aren’t around your throat,
aren’t clipping a leash,
around your throat,
my words aren’t going to promote,
any view over the other,
I’m just exasperated from being short strawed,
and picked over,
after the lion and lioness have eaten the vital organs,
and left the scraps,
let’s take cat naps,
and let what is, be.
Whenever it is.
Tailor Made
the open jaws,
are combination locked,
hyperextended,
can’t talk the talk,
a sugar coat,
never kept anybody warm,
a sucker punch,
never gained anyone street cred,
in doctor dodgeball,
I can only assume she cares,
maybe she’s just schmo in a lab coat
a robin mangled with an L bent wing,
under a fruit stand in china town,
living off the juice of fallen lychee,
nuts to think...

Time Piece written by Nick Drake
Still it’s time that grows in my brain,
Still it’s time that calls me here,
Still I scream but time ticks,
Still I cringe from times tricks,
Still I groan for times loves,
Still I’ll try for time perhaps…
The Main Course
I’m pulling the table cloth from under the plate tectonics of this table,
watching the food that took all afternoon to prepare,
go to waste as dozens of peas roll around on the hardwood,
followed by the meat of a lamb,
it had more use back in it’s body,
since I seem to be okay with making a stupid party trick,
out of the main course of the day.
since I seem to be okay, with...
Dear Luke:
I hope when you say you are sick of everyone…
you mean everyone but me! Muahahahahaha
A forgotten file from My Documents, that made me...
two assholes fall in love,
two assholes make one whole,
one whole pile of kaka!
No Silence, While we're breathing...
there is no such thing as silence, in a world that breathes,
there is no such thing as silence, in a world that breathes,
there is a waiting room of adults who have yet to teethe…
break this hymlin of virginal speach, and give me all the dirt
break this hymlin of virginal speach, and give me all the dirt,
break this humdrum mechanism of refracted sight not alert…
I know I can,...
The lamest piece of writing I have ever posted...
I really enjoyed your company,
and I miss eating snacks with you,
and rocking out to good music with you,
and I miss walking right or left with you,
and laughing with you,
and I miss frog hopping over dividing poles, and electrical boxes,
and sliding down playground slides,
and I miss talking about how we were going to rock out for real,
and seeing more than just this land,
and I miss...
