wind/rain like lovers
moving, coming together.
the heat, lonely. still

When I was in high
school, I aimed low and scored high.
Sex, drugs, rock and roll

in high school, I scored
in the top percentile for
staring at nothing.

state of the arts / kyapi, now on itunes, check him out.

guy selling cd's
at my store, and later, hers.
self-promoting sigh.

Rock bottom: Watching
X-Files, thought, "5 syllables!
Gypsies, tramps, and thieves!"

a suicide pact
is what we discussed tonight
it made us both laugh

hypothetical
scenarios don't exist.
now, what do you do?

my jaw takes painful
time to open. open, close.
widening gyre.

Inside my box, I'll
hide until someone asks what
do they want from me.

everything today
was in slo-mo, except the
part where i blew chunks.

she wants something from
my words. something about her.
something outside me.

Wrote a letter for
you, sealed in a silver lined
envelope. Sorry.

he went there alone.
but attracted attention.
now he has the clap.

The second coming
didn't come, yet the masses
have a new martyr.

says, "have a good one."
bad ones make the best stories.
average ones blow chunks.

snakes in the morning,
spiders at night. heat between.
nature's for suckers.

Unhealed scars, ink blot
limbs. Let my body tell the
story I won't tell.

what you DONT see is
me. sometimes i seem spooky...
i feel like a ghost.

Keep doing what you're
doing, and you will get the
me that you deserve.

i let myself talk
about the future like
i believe in it.

$2500 for a root canal?

"we can fix your mouth.
we have the technology."
"go on and pull it."

i know that God made
me an atheist. please don't
question His judgment.

Only fitting that
the center of attention
seeks the opposite.

douche

you're practically
married to my fist. don't make
this any harder.

If your hand bores you,
then your imagination
isn't good enough.

Callus on bare feet
prove the validity of
the Floridian.

mediocre stars
burning dimly, rocking soft.
please learn from shatner.

it's hard to express
doubts, or anything really,
at times like these, love.

Uneasy Ads

twilight zone ain't got
nothing on the Burger King's
kid. apple fries, too.

"Or if you want to
strike me down in anger, here
I am. I'm your man."

--Leonard Cohen

To keep fighting it
would strip my right to say there's
nothing left to lose.

The Status Quo Defines Sanity.

over the next ridge
lies immortality and
the rest of our days.

between here and there
are the measures to claim us
monsters or madmen.

there are days i'd like
to be a monster, but if
this is sanity...

nothing going on
makes you wonder exactly
what it is you do.

Every ounce of
security is gone with
each second I waste.

Night brings modern guilt,
get yourself together, man.
Some days show the truth.

between empty minds,
empty hearts, empty pockets.
life is strangely full.

you are on my fridge
mocking me in your panties
wringing out my heart

Criticism can't
be taken seriously
from guy who liked Signs.

serenity/courage/wisdom

true wisdom knows that
just because you can change it,
doesn't mean you should.

go on...

too many people
hurting me, not being hurt
only one is left

A healthy union
maintains the balance of the
pair's independence.

independence

"anything you can
do, we can do better. and
by ourselves. thanks. bye."

care package coming.
i don't know how much i can
help when i'm broken.

Preparations made,
almost ready...the knife brings
blood in the kitchen.

simple solitude.
life's greatest gift. to watch this
alone, from afar.

Rainbows raping rain
refuse refuge to wrecked soul
wringing her along.

i'll pretend to care.
you pretend to know what love
is. we'll be just fine.
