So I spilled out my guts, to look past my regrets,
and i sang to the heavens, as i bled from my neck
I said 'THANKS FOR YOUR PATIENCE GOD, AND ALL YOUR
WISDOM AND STRENGTH,' I said 'THANKS FOR THE SUFFERING.' as i prayed for the dead. 'CAUSE THEY LIVED FOR THE LIVING GOD, YET YOU'VE IGNORED EVERY WORD. AND WE'RE DAMNED TO GROW OLD AND DIE, AS OUR PLEES GO UNHEARD' so i walked throught the valley, and i tried to forget, how i loved every moment of the life i had left. 'WE WERE ALL CHEATED MY BROTHERS! AND WE WERE ALL LIED TO MY FRIENDS! NOTHING CAN SAVE US FROM GOD! NOT EVEN DEATH! SO CAST OFF WHAT IS MORTAL, AND DISCARD ALL YOUR DREAMS, CAUSE THEY ALL TURN TO SHIT IN THE END, AND YOU WAKE UP IN HELL!!!!' Why fear the unknown? When living is the only thing i would die for.
LARYNGECTOMY
my friend i scoff at your lust for sustenance.
as passive thoughts strike out at the only comfort i can't bear,
til these lips are stained with the blood of another.
refusal to comply only ends in descension from the self.
therefore i wage war on all ideas you're forcing me to think.
distraught, disguised our abhorrence victomize.
a word can break ideas in comatose state.
i tried to please but only woun down on my knees.
an anchor to hell the vessel rests light on the shell.
your grade school blasphemy is comical and it's making my skin crawl.
we lack romance in our twisted culture.
remove the voice and you remove the virus.
we lack conviction to our complacence.
lesser men would kill themselves but i for one am not so
mother fucking brave.
SHATTERDAY
with whiskey on my breath i blew a kiss to make you mine,
and told you my misgivings were but a product of my flawed design.
we stood out on your balchony and shared a cigarrette.
we made eachother promises we knew we'd both regret and louder still.
the ambience drowns me out.
but resonates without a sound.
to calm to cry, to sly to sneak.
from lack of use my voice is weak.
i'm taking back my wishes from the well
so sick of dissapointment i could mutilate myself.
i'm disgusted with my knack for breaking hearts and promises
unintentionally chased away the only friends i have
i wasn't shouting to be noticed, i was screaming to be heard
selling out for major roles but minor parts were all i earned
anyone who cared for me was always set aside
in favor of rejection from the cooler crowd and i apologize.
BARNACLE AND THE BAD NEWS
sing to thee in praise renewal of candid deceit for i have been blessed with poetry we belong to posiedons' briny and bottomless sea embracing clouds of sweet vindictive daydreams behind me silouhetting my heart, you cast shadows upon my soul fifty eight would cease to be if grey had a face thirty two embalmed in briny blue leave me here in the company of anemones the marlin know the secrets of the sea to spiteful to own two legs i hunger for something more comforting my embryonic hideaway home the coral king accomadating me i'll be here when the sun becomes too blinding to bear i'd be glad to share this treasure trove with thee unconcious this concubine lay breathless on the shore
