I've just realized,
The end will be dark.
No elation, cheers,
Or applause.

So hold me, until it comes,
I'll just hope it never does.

Softly shifting silver sands,
Solid to liquid,
Liquid to gas.

I just felt, if you never left,
None of that comes to pass.

Cocky glibness, middle class,
Christmas to windows,
Windows to glass.

I just sat aside, never asking,
What do you say to the fairer sex?

You're everything I've ever dreamt?
Well, I find there's just none left, 
Nothing but adventures, 
And acceptance tests. 

Coffee drinking, ginger snaps,
Trauma to forgiveness,
Forgiveness until collapse.

You're everything I ever dreamt,
I'd do anything to bring you back,
Like an eye that stares ahead,
Tears roll down my face again.

I'll never be the things I lack,
I'll never change, skin like that,
Only grows with age.

Salt to water,
Water evaporates.

Beneath the heather,
Under her breath,
Behemoth... Never.

But demons forever:
Dreams of perfection,
Peaceful agendas, 
Deeper connections, 
Traded for equal attention. 

You always had mine forever, 
Free from aggression, 
Free from unpleasance, 
Free from pretending, 
Free happiness forever. 

That's not what you want? 
Beneath a sweater,
Under her breath,
Again, another.

So she says,
Free from justice ever,
When it comes to affection.

So she never opens up,
Free, of attendance,
Free, hand percussion,
Free, for jackals and buzzards,
Until they see something better.

Table between bonds, 
Prayer shawl across the arms,
I think you've nodded off...

So upstairs and criss-cross,
Stress balls, stretch marks,
Leading to ex marks.

I wish things weren't the way they are,
You and I could finish what we started,
But everything is decided by economics,
Including the birth of a daughter,
And the laughter that comes along with it.

Fables between health bars,
Self, like her chess clock,
Untouched between punches.

I wish things weren't the way they are,
You and I had finished what we started,
Two people who never fell apart,
Including the birth of a daughter,
And the laughter that comes along with it.

The point is the point, 
Boys will be boys, 
The noise: Serpentine, 
Like around me it coils. 

I ask my father, what he knows... 

His axe to grind is my axe to grind,
Consequence, why my ass is fine.
But who dies I'll never choose,
I'll never have the chance to try.

The noise, deafening, and wide.
Like it surrounds me,
And I planned to hide.

As the waves they overtake me,
I realize everyone has to die,
Grandfather's axe was never mine, 
And nothing comes after,
A modern dance to time.

Love from the art class... 
Is everything the same, 
Or have you changed perhaps?

If my tomorrow never came,
Am I still just some faggot,
That never had your respect?
We both know front to back,
When it comes to class, but 
What about our crossed paths?

Does it matter, about the facts?
Whether I fell to able hands, 
You would rather write about it,
You already decided, so sing that, 
And when you finally do get to it, 
You shove it up your ass.

Love, from the bottom of my heart, 
They never taught you art in class, 
And you never learnt good taste,
Is everything the same? No...
I would say you changed, perhaps,
But you never had any fuckin class.

And, that comes from me...
Love, from the art class, 
All the way to the current of my heart:
Things have changed, 
It's better you stay hard, man,
A wave from across the bar.
Far away, like your honest thoughts.

Belly distend, body groan,
Inside you hope for inner growth,
Instead, you'll fight in civil court.

Doesn't it get a little old?
Every night you lock the door,
Enter your room, turn the radio on...
It's what you know, and fear.

Doesn't it seem a little odd?
Where was he when you need him?
Doesn't it get a little old?
Every night, a knock at the door,
Enter your room, turn the radio on....

So where was he by morning? Gone?
You lock the door, a window breaks,
Your father comes, fixes everything,
Doesn't it get a little old?
Doesn't it seem a little odd?
Inside, you hope for inner growth,
Instead, you'll fight in civil court.

May I judge? The chaos comes,
Under veil of doves, not weight problems. 

May I judge? Love is based on trust,
Something you know nothing of,
Like plain hard work and using gloves.

Broken promises, safe guarded,
Imitation artist with an imitation father, 
Imitated marble walls to floor,
How are those games you play at home?

May I judge? The chaos comes,
Not in the break ups, it's there all along.

Eighty dollars for a game cartridge.
May I judge? Are the games you play fun?
What about friendship, was it there all along? 
Under a veil of doves, a veil of darkness,
Changing promises, a raging monster.

Words leave her lips,
Like a chord, music hits. 
Love scenes along with,
Like speech, she insists.

Roger, beep,
Nothing more from me,
If she insists, I proceed

Olive tree, olive greens,
All over obliques, seed,
All over peaks, the sheets,
All of it, comes from me.

Words of caution,
Gourds in autumn,
Fears be gone in her,
A plate summed full.

Squash in the soil,
Seeds in the garden,
Water on her arms,
Written over blood.

Gambling problem, 
Lust, as if scarlet, 
Just as I write it: 
Clubs, spades, diamonds.

A heart divines it,
A world divides it,
Time becomes distance, 
A bicycle by the bridge.

Thinking of exposure, orange,
Are you coming over? Oh... 
From emotion to hypnosis,
Light comes from the phone.

Talking frozen yogurts, awards,
Terrifying rollercoasters, poets.
Light comes from the phone,
Orange how the redness shows,
Awe, gathering rosebuds below.

When I wrote about you it showed, 
Both you and I know it,
What else do I love?

Suppose you had died,
What else would I have?
Hope you might fly home?
Well, I paid for it anyway... 
Light comes from the phone,
Blindness from my brain,
Tiredness of fate.

Like edamame on a plate,
Somehow, I hoped for more,
Even if it was more the same

In the courtroom:
Pigs, blood, tofu,
Minotaurs loose,
Conflicts toward,
Cold, gloom.

Hospital wards,
Admittance form,
Logical words.

What becomes more true in times of war?
Ghosts, opinions that form a search for truth.
Indigo, blue. Stitch up your wounds, harlot.
Soon, the riddles will be about you.

The courtroom, 
The boardroom, 
Cicero, choose:
Which is for you?
Indigo or blue,
One million or two.

What becomes true in times of war?
Certainly not you, trials or support.

Vermilions, Amber,
Vermin, red, in anger.
Verily, yellow dances,
Keep dancing, he says,
And slaps her.

Verify me a fact, liar,
Orange becomes vermillion,
So what will yellow become, 
Tallow or cum on the skin? 
Life, wears thin, and dives.

I think upon green, yellow presides,
Beyond the goddess worship, lies,
Anger. I think a lot about their side.

I think they lie about their sides,
I think a little red should suffice.
Vermillion, yellow, a bit of pride,
Call me coward, feed those ideas,
A million bits, red and canvas mine.

'I just wish, with all the time I have left',
As she squeezes her fists, laments,
Her eyes see ideas she never said,
Sadness bookends her existence.

She knows what she is, and lies,
She thinks she knows what's best,
But she is losing her desire for life.

I just wish, like all the cows she loves,
She would fight and fawn over me for once.
The person she sees staring into the sky,
It seems she likes, but she rarely sees herself.
Mostly other men, me, and occasionally, marquee lights.

She thinks it's for the best, I'm sure.

The person she reveals herself to be,
As the ocean fares, she holds against,
My love can only take so many hits,
She says, as she sets the table,
For two people, but never herself.

She says in the end, it's for the best.

What happened to the things she liked?
She thinks to herself in a flight,
Reminded of a dream, desires,
Meets someone else and tries.

Time is a god of fire, however,
So it takes and destroys her,
Inside first, then outside.

What she does with her life,
It's none of my concern,
Fans in the crowd fight amongst themselves,
Not with players they revere and beheld.
I think I know what's best, but in the end,
I knew very little of what I said, 
Even less of the outcomes she had.

So, who am I, to wish?

Shapeshifter, sex symbol, Lord,
Like you imagine your next form,
Aging wrinkles, Alone,
Civil from war.
Great mirror,
What's a beach without a shore?
Those who change an elaborate hoax.
They imagine thinking, then approach,
Like ideas read from novels and books.

Plane ticket, images, visions, more, 
Imagining yourself at home,
Opium, an anonymous quote, 
You take the drugs you owe for, 
In your veins, up the nose.
Fictional, your world becomes,
Because fiction is all you know.

Shapeshifter, pegs in your holes,
You imagine delightful chorus,
Even though you are alone.
Violent, calloused and lonesome.
Without war to be calloused from.
Great Mirror, Piper, Peter, 
Could you play me a tune
Or at least leave me alone?
I favour the fear I know fighting.
Not the thunder and lightning,
You bring when you're home.

A wake-up call, A veil must fall,
He always spoke in ways of god,
Unfortunately he spoke that way a lot.
He spoke simply, of knaves and farms,
Like he spoke in the name of god.
Like the oil on the water, 
It leaves a glistening wake behind it;
Eyes are like the rays of dawn.
Flames stream from a mouth;
Sparks of fire shoot out the nostrils,
Dragon tall, shakes the castle walls.

So can you blame them,
When they say fuck off?
Nothing on earth is its equal, 
A creature without fear,
And it comes for us,
The reign of law.

Estoppel,
Mothers teach their daughters:
Fear god like a cannon,
It's about what comes after,
Thanks can turn like a cavern.

Characters in novels,
Monuments in their honor,
Buildings to hurl themselves off of,
In life, it appears less often,
Withering is more common.

Peer down the fandom:
Book like a standard,
Fans buy a good lie.
Banks burn like a tavern,
Like a blanket in shambles
By the fire that looks fine.

Estoppel:  The dragon sighs,
Wishes a sweet prince, good night,
Gone is he with the fire.

Atlas reaches, Earth teeters,
Who cares who stares beneath.
Apples, peaches, pears, kiwis:
Tree, what are seed to thee?
Tree, what are seeds to be?
Blue, what does it mean, to be Green?
Views beyond what one has seen.
Speed, a pace, to place them at the peak,
Then recede, what decides its meaning?
Perhaps at the roots, the soil is gleaning,
But at the root, a house teeters,
Tepid falling upon the cedar greens,
Of course, Of no fault to me, I feel.
Accepted outcomes of little dreams,
Confused with death, drift out to sea.
