ditto
Stiletto fangs leave trails of dried blood on my face My breath smells of rotted flesh and my eyes are solid red Bony fingers with pointed nails will curl around your neck my tongue will thrash your ears and rip your brains right from your head your eyes will fall from their sockets your mouth will be too dry to scream…

Today
I hope you had them talk their brains out I didn't see it

I was mowing the lawn and...
You wouldn't last a day in the world I live but I will survive in yours. All alone in the valley of the sun holding life in the burning hands of time By God and the rain the thunder and lighting and the pain I will survive. look deep into the eye of the storm and see the wild horses painted across the sky you will see him…

heaven and hell
Your face is gaunt your blue eyes are pale Your “third leg” is now a cane Your mind has become so clouded That you often sound insane I’ve watched you waste away Up and down the scale I’ve never felt love more deeply though Simultaneous heaven and hell I have been grateful for knowing that is up until now To have an idea…

Far & Few
It's that spark between our thoughts The one that you barely see unless you're squinting (images into oblivion) The one that you only feel after hours of pausing The one that you hear when listening ends The one that you get when you just relax already The one between breaths You don't know where it is except that its all…

cutting loose the shadow
Screaming. Waving your arms around in my face. What will it take? Cut loose the shadow And live for today. Words they always say. Breathe it in Breathe it in. Sweet haze intoxication. Be my guide In this reality tonight. Cut loose the shadow and find me. Driving a little slower now. Getting hard to see the lines. Still I…

regret and relief
Skipping stones on the lake. Whoever got the farthest got their wish. Days that I miss. Lost, wandering in the forest Took a fall but worth the trip. Seems to me it all should have been different. Seems to me you're on a mission. Have you found it yet? Or are you like me, full of regret? Wanting to change the past But…

untitled... just things on my mind
When I have nothing left to say When I cannot remember my yesterdays When I no longer dream of you I scream and plead Starving for the truth. You still think its fine. Has it ever crossed your mind? Its the thought that counts But I can count on you to not have that thought. Will this lonely candle still burn? Will we ever…

carnival
The parade of weirdos comes marching through on it's own schedule and I no longer care worn out, seen-em-all I no longer care about the spectacle even when the King of the Line shows up in his lopsided crown it's no longer a surprise it's just more of the same one more cut in my death from a thousand cuts one more tiny…

I'm going to write these out, not in the order chronologically that they were written, but in the order I feel they make the most sense..This is soley for myself.. but I also hope you appreciate them.

no escape
an icy air mass, raw with sadness settles to rest over ridges, valleys and canyons painful fingers of frost immobilize each evergreen needle, bare twig and leafless branch a radiating cold evaporates all other sensation and there is no escape from this sadness when a friend moves on

a trip
Ideas come from the sound At breakneck speed. Hard to breathe. Fighting a disease. Can't sing, I scream. Trying to find something to hang onto. Distance epic but we'll take the car. Find a remedy in life that's forgotten.
