black box.

My heart betty-beat-beats, But it's all tricky-trap-trivial, So meaningless and frivolous - That I hyphenate witty-work-words To plaster-prick-pass the time. Heart beats? That's what I said, So yeah, my bones vibrate. Lungs breathe? That's a fact, So yes, my chest rises and falls. Eyes see? Well I'm... Sign in to see full entry.

Who walks, no talks, dog barks?

They walk with two feet - You and me, you and me, me, me You, you... Remembered when you were me? I was you too under sky blue too true? Yeah, yeah, Turn back pages to when it was simple, To when it was pretty ladies and Chubby kids craving candies... Off to the red brick, Marble halls of bathroom... Sign in to see full entry.

Van Gogh's Toe is mine.

I once was young, Still am - so they say, But I used to live pure Every night and every day, Used to exist like flame - Burned, scared those I touched, Two fingers to the wound and remember me. Once drunken on life and substance, Hopped hard into foreign pool, Landed on glass broken and jagged, Said... Sign in to see full entry.

took spill

Took flame to plastic, Without nothing everything Subsides - Walk two three five times Elevendity ten, Run cross world, Never find end, Boom shackalack-too-free-lee-looo Wave crash bird song, Interweave blanket mesh, Sky be blanket - Day warm Night cold, Stars show where moth eats, Sun burns fiber...

Oh, life.

Who is it - That rings mad bells, And calls on divine swells Of sea-salt and basalt, Sulfur in your eyes? Who is it that is God The Almighty one? Telling us to fight for the Battle's already won? Sing song, And be gone! For the world is in Tomorrow! But sing deep in sorrow, As all men and women... Sign in to see full entry.

Wonderful

Well it was all just wonderful In the land of the sing-song-sea, It was all just great when the mind Could breathe, Yeah, you know it when it feels you sad, I see it when I see it, Never gone without it, Never home with it, Never away when I wish I was, Never home when I miss my bed. It was all just... Sign in to see full entry.

Left someday.

Left it up to chance – I do I did I do you do too few, Two left feet that danced a thousand songs, Eyes that’d seen the world before they Knew eyes they were, Feet that walked cold coals and Burning waters bare, Before they knew how to tie shoes. Let it drift away, River flow grow know low in tow,... Sign in to see full entry.

Sting fib.

Because it's all just a travesty - Locked up a living casualty, Mad crowds amassing be, Round around the town, see? It's explosions in the sunlit corners Of white rooms with no furniture, That sit dead awakened by their emptiness, At one with someone, none, all gone for fun - Until the eruption of...

Zappy.

They look over the Took over, ride around, Bang! Rovers, White dove rides rickety wing, Broke! Begging vocal chords too tight never, Spoke! Pawning off fakes and second takes Of those Choco birthday cakes Mother Used to…Make! But I never died – Although they wept for me, I never tasted dirt –... Sign in to see full entry.
