oh youre just in time
for summer delights
oh sun kissed eyes
watch me levitate
god is a good dog digging for gold
if you dig with em he'll save your soul
laughing like trains at our current state
slurred words and blurred tranquility
oh daffodils fly
through jade-tinted skies
rub the ruby-hued remnants
of sleep onto your
your calloused hands
broken fingers
its not fair
your eyes were full of sugar
when you shrugged your shoulders
i tried to buy the beach
with a sand dollar
i smile
and nod at the sand
in my hand
and it grins back
it grins at me
the seashells share secrets
in subtle whispers
insects pelt my hide
under the star spangled sky
i hang borrowed time
to dry
on a clothesline
but when you leave
these profound heaves
hover above my empty lungs
my sheets entreat my troubled mind to sleep
my sheets greet heavy lids with the unsolved riddles that fiddle with the frailty of my pregnant mind
i abhor
the pallor
of the morning sun
but the cocks crow makes the night's sorrow
no more
i hear your radiant voice in the hum of my radiator
our rituals are rich in situational irony
its more than monotony
its the knot in me

language about honey rain
drooling delirious red love
well it wouldnt feel right unless there was one elephant in the room
she was thoughtful
awful thoughtful
with a fistful of falafel
and she said,
"i dont want food if its tasteless"
a flock
of brick brained boys born in bronze
the one with the jaded eyes threw up a hockey puck
and she said,
"i dont want you in my basement"
well you all know better than that
and we all know better than that
and she said,
"i dont want you in my basement"
teens with canteens of canadian ale
sewer rats ranting about the root of all evil
its so G***** easy to be complacent
there was a witch in the kitchen
which in retrospect makes me
respect witches
we all know better than that
no we all know better than that
and she said,
"i love you because you're not dead"
giddy sick, dont feel good
workin out of the wood
into the water
air bubbles reach surface
purple blue in the face
fish swimming under
sink, float
shrink, bloat
scarlet skyless cloud on the floor
hungry fish swim by, undertoe
they take in what she had lost
funny fisherman on a boat
take it
sink, float
shrink, bloat
skinny fishing line feels a tug
scaly fish with her in its gut
he pulls it out, face is smug
he makes dinner for mom and son
take it
the fire seers the flesh
gluttonous eyes light his face
he butters the corpse
the boy grins at the man
with the plate in his hand

dont mind my discreet muskrat
the mist must mask my mistakes
but if you pull one out
then seven grow
my maker rakes my muck
and she walked into the frost
with a taste for a long lost flavor
that she didnt savor
when she had the chance
she loomed below the snow
the streetlight flickered
and it glowed
she was dead silent
the silence made her head spin
she remembers his face
the poppy flowers
growing out of his beard
the wooden overcoat he sported
with a headstone at his nape
the way his hot breath tickled her cheeks
and how he'd change her sheets
when she couldn't help but soil herself
photographs of her father
on a dusty shelf
next to his silent ears
that stared
that she couldn't bear
she walked into

exquisite corpse
04:11
|
|||
road kill spills across wheels turning round
she feels a sense of fullness in a barren parking lot
weeds seethe through concrete, meet the sky halfway
exquisite corpse, go away
head above water but hes head over heels
strip mall ripples in his peripherals
molasses mouth, stalactite eyes
in a yellow house they severed their ties

stranger's skin

chris has teeth
like a coral reef
he screams good grief
when he flosses
and she floats down
the tangier sound
a crimson bed
a coil shed
a new food source
for the fishes
the moon looks like its wearing a wig
someone familiar in a strangers skin
and she said,
"the moonlight oscillates over the ripples in the reflection on the river"
her sunburnt brain
like a window pane
can watch the world
but just sits still
tiny china
fortune teller
chocolate cheesecake
budapest
the moon looks like its wearing a wig
someone familiar in a strangers skin
and she said,
"the moonlight oscillates over the ripples in the reflection on the river"

ramen noodle noose around my neck
i got a hot pocket in my eye socket
i might as well smoke a cigarette
coca cola in my blood
coca cola in my lungs

bright green
05:52
|

remember how teeth and dandruff used to show up bright green?
under UV disco lights,
at your favorite bowling alley
we walked into the back and found the pinsetter machine
and i thought to myself,
"god her eyes are so bright green, bright green"
anywhere you go you'll see stars
like on your old ceiling that would glow in the dark
i have stars in a nest of wrinkles
bright green eyes look into mine
look into mine
"does this remind you of anything from the night sky?"
