I got to see it all,
Cheers, applause,
Fear of god,
In the end,
I feel it's paltry.

Because I felt, love,
Never tested,
Done no wrong,
In the end,
I hoped to say I love you,
One more time, though
Maybe I said enough.

I don't mind the double standard,
It doesn't matter.
Like of earth, and other planets.

Are alternative angles an answer? 
When upon a bed,
And under blankets, 
Otherwise, it doesn't matter.

It's like the farther one travels,
You become more of an animal,
Like foxes, wolves or badgers,
Eating bugs if you have to.

Migration, and other issues,
I don't mind the double standards,
It's more about comedy to a fool.
Like sex is to faggots.

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.

On canvas, paint, 
Faint inner lines,
One day, help will arrive.

Fox to maggots, sages alike, 
Not passion, lies,
One day, help will arrive.

Small matters, aside,
Lay awake in the night,
Doorways open, 
Like man and a knife. 
All that matters is survival, 
Today, protection of life.

Black magic, paint,
What makes things mine?
Fate, or time?
I can't say faithfully,
Hopefully, one day, help will arrive.

It's in the difference, 
Flams and rolls,
I got what I want, I'm gonna go...

Its in the doorways,
You shout insults,
You got it bud, you gotta go...

It's in the drunkenness,
You find me boring,
Tell me I'm the wall,
Leave me, sad emoji.

It's for the best, beggars low,
The wall stands tall,
In the end I need nothing more.

Ire in my heart.
Desire for port,
Designer clothes.

Firesales, shots, 
Desire for more, 
Righteous cause,
Inside jokes.

Cannot you stand on half the world?
Tiger mom, time forgotten,
Trials of law, wires crossed.

And here I am still lion hearted

Harvard comma, 
Lust for love,
Concert, opera. 

Forward, onward, 
How can you find God? 

Gotcha, gotcha. 
Heartless monsters,
Endless darkness,
Falling, forgotten.

Son, sing a sun song, 
Gone first are zombies,
Long nights, falsehoods.

Yet you sing on...
How can you see their soul? 
Stare at the son.

Love song, pub crawl.
The scuff marks stay,
People, rub off, then
Pass away.

View from Toronto, others, also.
Best seen, like without follow.
A shadow, born of a shadow,
How can it fathom less hollow,
Habitual patterns in a modern world?

Coming tomorrow is gun conflicts,
Cult worship, communion with objects.
The coward screams like an apostle.

Future prospects, like luminous stars,
Lay dinosaur bones in scarlet houses.
Bloodshed so widespread and obvious,
Like polearms in the side of your horse,
Desire and goals become simply doors,
Where do theirs divide from yours?
Like ingots, in fire or war.

though it has been so long, i have not forgotten you. 
i have searched for you among the crowded shelves of bookshops, the cobbled displays of libraries, the take-one-leave-one boxes scattered through town. 
i have dug deep in my jacket pockets for the notes and coins needed to take you home with me.
i have cradled you close to me underneath my coat while i am waiting for the 6:58 bus.
i have found you in tulip bulbs peeking above the soul for the sun, late august thunderstorms that pelted our new apartment, the january wind that brings ice and chapped hands.

you have made sure your spine stands straighter when i roam through each aisle, saturated and dewey with books.
you have pushed the dimes and nickels into my grasping fingers so that we may spend our time together that much quicker.
you have squeezed me hard as we step off the bus at 7:34.
you have flung yourself through the sky and earth to find me in the smallest of stolen moments. you kiss my hands and my head and flush them rosy with emotion. 
you have not forgotten me either, it seems.

If a caperberry were a fish,
Would it still be in your dish,
What food do you eschew, fool?
Escargot, bear, fruit and goose?
Verily, ask yourself this:
Do you know all, what is good?
Like bitter roots, Like butter runs,
Desire, let me dissolve into the slime,
Like a newborn child who never sees the sun.

A horn right where the heart is,
A horn is where we started,
Beasts of a Godhead, snort,
What else would they know?

Seven heads, Seven hills, a woman sits,
Fearing what we couldn't fix is still amiss,
On top of the hill, one digests the hits,
The house my father built is sticks.

This calls for a mind with wisdom,
Or A horn right where the heart is.
For economics, For a little longer,
For when they finally got it,
The realization, it was violent.

Then floods, then nothing.

No foundation to stand on,
I must found myself, found my call,
But the houses my father built are gone.

Truffle, my gems are gone.
All bets are off.
Swan, water, ruffles,
Trouble underwater,
The fish will balk:
Death march talk becomes bubbles, 
They beg off, shot in the stomach,
Test nothing, swim to the bottom.

Lord, I spoke to God.
Soft, I sodded off.
Man, laughter, shuffle,
Trouble in the park,
People just forgotten:
Talking until nonsense,
Their tussles long,
Of consequence and knowledge,
Then replaced by logs.

Big curls, bench presses, 
High dives into the deep end 
Swim laps
Gettin' down with my boys
Hard drugs through the weekend
I feel that

Bike ride through the trees
See the colours change
Run flat across the bay
Just to tell my maynes

I'm bored, ditched lessons
I'm hitting up my best friends
But I'll nap first
Big curls, bench presses
Torn bicep and a bong rip
Yo, I'm good now

Skateboard through the crowds
Where the streets are paved
Eat shit, get scraped
I can feel no pain

Easin' down with my boys
Slow cookin' through the weekend
I feel that
A bit of strings, sum tings
Got damn, such a feeling
To feel that

“Don’t let me down”, now that’s a foolish way of thinking 
Response of confirmation, actions not in agreement 
Not very much Redeeming 
Like Pandora’s box you’re seeming

Like bullets to the chest, I’m barely breathing
Confused and in distress, was I deceived? and
Was I deceiving?

Were you mistaken by my distance and a lack of trust was formed

Or was my token of your trust misplaced in your corrupted life form?

Are you a demon?

But you weren’t demeaning.

You boost me up, 
Above the ceiling was my love

Like, not love, allow me to clarify
Was different, real connection
But anything more than that I inform you, I deny

And now I cry

Mine, your were not but all of you was with me
Or maybe me with you, that’s where I get confused
Mistaken thinking

Time, as more comes, you will fade
At least that what my research say
But I swear to god, my image of you gets imprinted on me more and more as I survive the day

Leave me alone
I don’t want you here to stay

Memories in my bone 
Fractured when I lay 

Fractured when I wake

Fractured me in my waist

Oh what a waste

A waste of my fight when all I care to take is flight
All I care is me and you changed that habit
Is that what lies are like?
Is the purpose damage?

If so you succeed because I’m more than done
I’ve lost my sun
Although it’s reflection on the moon is a pretty replica
You set me up
Trojan horse 
You lift me up
And when things got good you sat me down
Let me frown
Although I hide, that feelings sound
That feelings loud
Those thoughts clear 
These eyes hold tears
Those drops aren’t mild
Neither were my fears

So clear Ill steer for now
Others won’t be allowed
My voice won’t speak aloud
Not truth nor words of deep
Only traps for the weak, ones I couldn’t put out
They were from your slope
Your dope became my cloud
I guess it’s, both, hello and goodbye for now.

If only I knew before, how much you’d let me down.

It is far better to dry the ocean
and be at the bottom of the sandy sea
than it is to rage against the tides

hopeless, yet aimless, waiting for solace
you fight, you splash, you scream
only to be treading water for hours

while you could have gotten a towel
and then started drying the waters
taking a while. But as the level lowers,

and as you realize you're drowning either way,
it was far better to aim for the sand
that it would have been to rage against the tide

Lady Luck please don't let me down,
I got three more months till I leave this desert town
Here I sit up on my post keepin the wolves at bay
They may think their top dog here, but now they are my prey.
Lady Luck please don't let me down,
You've got me this far, two months till I leave this ol shantytown 
Here I walk on the prowl for snakes down before me.
With each step I take I clear the ground behind me.
Lady Luck please don't let me down,
Just one more month til I see my ol home town.
Here now I fly high so I can look for danger up ahead.
My badge of courage now soaked red,
Lady Luck why'd you let me down,
Now I lay six feet underground.

Bob haircut got published,
Bizarre letters, smudges,
Writ incompetent failure.

Box cutter and razors,
Bomb shelter,
Protect me from fears of, 
Awfulness and strangers.

I don't believe in the merits,
Photographer spouting nonsense,
So are the product of his labour,
Nonsense: the popular translation.

In the end I saw nothing.

Averno.
Y me escapé de las fauces del infierno
Aterrado, completamente perplejo
Por peldaños de piedras fui subiendo
Lentamente un dolor me fue deteniendo
Un dolor que peldaño tras peldaño fue creciendo
Agudo malestar en cada uno de mis extremos
Revisé buscando la causa de ese malestar intenso
Solo para descubrir cuatro grilletes de huesos
Calaveras arrastradas con cada movimiento
Alaridos en las profundidades reclamaban mi regreso
Daban la alarma de un escape en progreso,
Alguien intentaba salir del reino del sufrimiento
Era yo, que me arrastraba para no ser descubierto,
Poco a poco continuaba mi doloroso ascenso
Agotando la energía de mi andrajoso cuerpo
Entonces advertí que no era humano, era un espectro
Un ser pusilánime en un cuerpo descompuesto
Un ángel caído tratando de burlar su encierro
Sin previo aviso una carcajada me fue estremeciendo
Una maligna risa resonaba en el infierno.
Abro los ojos, estoy en mi cuarto, en el frío suelo
Me levanto rápidamente, me observo en el espejo
Soy humano otra vez, solo fue un sueño
Pero la carcajada sigue resonando como un eco
En la profundidad, en la oscuridad de mi aposento
Y se añadió un comentario aún más siniestro
No te descuides, aún te espero…
