A Gritty Sunshine

A gritty sun shines
Bullets the night sky
An angry river drowns
Swallows the whirlpool in

A charring down begins
Splits the freezing charcoal
A nailed in ledge cracks
Slips the aching feet that steps on

Why Why Why ?
I can't relate 
To a word that you say
To a sound that you hear
To a thought that you think

Why Why Why ?
I can't relate 
To an air that you breathe

A silver moon blackens
Paints colours across the night
An emerging shadow crumbles
Trembles the skin it tears

A raging bulldozer rides
Fuels the green lit fire
A midnight oil explodes
Kills generations to come by

Why Why Why ?
I can't relate 
To a sound that you don't hear
To an injustice that you don't see
To a song that you don't listen

Why Why Why ?
I can't relate 
To a pain that you don't feel

A letter of words suicides
Reanimates the soul inside

A Labyrinth Of Quicksands

A silent moon cobwebs
Surfaces the sky
It's time to drain the bleeding rain off my mind

A noisy curtain closes
Shadows like a ghost
It's time to kill what's still lingering in my chaos

But it's getting hard to see
With this piece of glass in me
I will never ever succumb to who you wanted me to be

I am floating in this spiral
A labyrinth of quicksands
It's time to be you and me, whoever that can be

Love Song

Fish sticks, sugarcane, candy cone
I know not what i say no more
She's got her job, it speaks for her
I've got my hell, just another low
Traffic lights, weigh in and out
I've got something to scream about
You're on the wire , where have you been
Please don't tell me ignorance is bliss

I love you
I fucking love you

3D glasses and a temple run
She loves her phone, she loves me not
I've got my heart, its all jacked up
She's got her list, she loves the sun
Finish line, comes close and closer
In the end, she looks bright and brighter
But i still don't know where she's been
She only tells ignorance is bliss

I love you
I fucking love you
I love you
i fucking love you

Diseased Tree

Got my safety glasses on
I don't feel much too safe
Gonna dive into these rocks
I be feeling the need for haste
Will you taste the plastic air?
Your tongue, it slips in way too late
You're on fire, you're a scorch
I drew you out with oil and paste

Train wreck is me
Brach out of my diseased tree

Got my virus flowing through
A river of deep red blues
Gonna swing a dagger high
The dirt beneath my murder shoes
Will you speak to me again?
Your words, they make me bruise
You're on my tree, my diseased tree
I will let you fall off when you get loose

Train wreck is me
Brach out of my diseased tree

Big Bull

Big bull said the engine's down
She said she dont like when the transmission's out
The suspension's blown
The piston's are gone
But I've got the love the kind my horsepower wants

Hey Hey,
Would you care to get out of ma way

I said Hey Hey
Its's just another burning day
She rides like a wave in an inferno
The lights are flashing out a warning roar
The torpedoes splash
The sirens screech
But I've got the power, the kind my raging fire wants

Hey Hey,
Would you care to get out of ma way
I said Hey Hey
Big bull is here to stay

Poisoned Honeybees

Dirty socks, they're left to dry
Filthy landfills
Crooked heads are left to grind
Damn brainwash machines
Sour nectar is left to feed
Poisoned honeybees
Dead flowers are here to bloom
A land of plastic sheets

Colorless Rainbows
Arrows from a quiver of fire
Infernos sprawl , a raging heat
Burning flames, a soot filled steam

Sunburnt dreams are left to die
Deep dark pits
Blind faith is left to breed
Books, so obsolete
Executioner's song is left to speak
A Prejudice, so real
Narrow minds are here to stay
Kill all who disagree

Wingless butterflies
Hurricanes from a tortured soul
Water sprouts , a wild tsunami
Spilling lead , a venom feel

Infinite Time


"May come home with a smooth round stone
As small as the world and as large as alone
So whatever we lose like a you or me
It's always ourselves we find in the sea"

{maggie and milly and molly and may
http://www.poets.org/viewmedia.php/prmMID/15406}

----
Like a piece of cotton in a big dark cloud
Pouring sands of rain in an infinite time
Sailing down to the streets of love
A love so forbidden, it has no hope
But the fire froze and the thunder sparked
A feeling so deep, it could not die
We are here , we will be free
It's part of me , it's our destiny

My Saturday Morning Gift To You

An angry storm of butterflies
Is raining in the air
It's flapping a fear of hurricane
Have caution, hold the rail

I've got my mind set on the east coast
My heart is in the west
My body's trapped in the countryside
My soul is in your breath

A creepy box of caterpillars
Is crawling in the sand
Its worming out a yearn to leave
Break these chains, set me free

I've got my fingers snapped in a rusty string
My flesh is burning in a charcoal wind
My skin is loose from the fiery heat
And my bones, they just ache to be with you

You look so pretty and you don't even know
I've gotta get to you
You look so pretty and you don't even know
Just gotta get to you

You look so pretty and you don't even know
Oh i ache to be with you
You look so pretty and you don't even know
This be my Saturday morning gift to you

The Never Ending Needs Song


I need you like a product needs a brand
I need you like a microphone needs a stand
I need you like a fair skin needs a tan
I need you like how peter needs a pan

I need you like an arsonist needs a fire
I need you like a hobbit needs the shire
I need you like a hexagon needs a sixth side
I need you like a prejudice needs a pride

I need you
I need you

I need you like an espionage needs a spy
I need you like a loser needs one more try
I need you like a book of pages needs a song
I need you like a junkie needs a bong

I need you like a nocturnal needs the night
I need you like a cigarette needs a light
I need you like a rolling stone needs the moss
I need you like a break even needs no loss

I need you
I need you

I need you like an ocean stone needs to float
I need you like a cold virus needs a sore throat
I need you like a dollar bill needs some more
I need you like a narrow mind needs open doors

I need you like all cats and dogs need no flood
I need you like an elephant needs a herd
I need you like a caterpillar needs one more day
I need you like a donkey head needs to bray

I need you
I need you

I need you like a telephone needs a ring
I need you like all verbs we know need an ing
I need you like all that we love need a feel
I need you like a mending heart needs a seal

I need you like a language needs a slang
I need you like a fill in needs no blanks
I need you like a ceiling roof needs to be above
I need you like i need to sing to you my wild love

But more than anything
I only want you

The Chair


On the dentist's chair
Needles poking in my mind
Razor Sharp and points
I am bleeding from inside out
In my spaceship now
Floating to a coastal town
Stars, they grow on trees
Ripples in the shining sky

Anesthesia
Fly me if you dare
Anesthesia
Let go off this chair

Tell it like it is
Don't remember where i've been
I see a smiling face
Don't wanna see no more teeth
On the dentist's chair
Wake up to peroxide sin
Four big walls surround
Curtains call, spin in time

Anesthesia
Fly me if you dare
Anesthesia
Get me off this chair

Clouds Over The Horizon


In the dark of night
I saw clouds hang over the horizon

It's the last time you will see
There is no more shine for the sun

The flowers lay gray
In the hazy light of the ocean

I just stood there dead
Wondering what i should have become

And the forests will scream
And the skies will bleed
And the echoes will silence
As we will never be free

In the haunting garden
I saw ghosts swimming all around

It's the first time you will see
A deadbeat needs to shine

The scorpions are alive
In the monstrosity of this desert

I lay there buried
Whondering who i could have become

And the forests will scream
And the skies will bleed
And the echoes will silence
As we will never be free

A Whistle And A Butterfly's Wing


A fabric piece made of space and time
A short cut to her room through a road of crime
A bread bowl soup turned upside down
A crawling back start shakes the spirit of this town

Now she bends low to spit out all the rest of the ranks
The ladder to success is short of just a few more planks
The hour glass feels lonely while left swimming on a beach
Yellow and hazy, she shakes off the sunlight out of her reach

A torn up road map left by a travelling band
A whistle and a butterfly's wing emerge from the sand
She blows so deep, She flaps so wild
Blue and dead, she is a hurricane child

Now she makes her way back home discovering with the map
A short cut to her room has fallen upon her lap
She crawls back to the start and to a higher place
Where she wears a fabric made of time and space

Mold Us Into One


The colour in the crayon and
The plants in the mud
The oil in the engine and
The tar on the road
They are molded in one
Won't you wanna mold us into one
Mold us into one

The suspense in the secret and
The shiver in the hail
The purr in the kitty and 
The fear in her mum
They are molded in one
Won't you wanna mold us into one
Mold us into one

The inhumanity in the king and
The greed in the queen
The lie in the newsprint and
The forbidden in the sin
They are molded in one
Won't you wanna mold us into one
Mold us into one

The prime in the one and
The even in the eight
The spin in the shake and
The kiss in the rain
They are molded in one
Won't you wanna mold us into one
Mold us into one

The love in her eye and
The pink in the hicky
The days in the week and
The time in the poetry
The hell in the mind and
The sunburn in the heat
The plastic in the cavity and
The injection in the skin
Won't you wanna mold us into one
Mold us into one

Mold us into one

I Am Always On The Road


I am always on the road
Breathing dust and chilling bones
She said you've got to stay here
My girl, but i've got no one

I am always on the road
Flashing lights, breaking stone
She said you're a slacker breed
My girl, she love that kind of feel

I am always on the road
Off the edge , overthrown
She said you're a liar and a thief
My girl, I just turned over a new tree

I am always on the road
Rage against the machines and so much more
She said, you will always be alone
My girl, will you ever take me home

Cotton Blue Sky


Came back home
For a while
I saw a thousand pretty kites
Fly high in the cotton blue
Sky

The wind was kind of dope
My mind was all afloat
I needed all of the
Space and time to
Relax

Its a swell day to go riding
Far out, heading east
Are we creatures, are we beasts?
You tell me

The blue skin
On the sky
It slowly peels, uncovers
All the chaos that it leaves
Behind

The water's been
Pumping lead
It's a poison you cant refrain
Spilling tox in the clear blue
Sky

Its a swell day to go riding
Far out, heading east
Are we creatures, are we beasts?
You tell me

It's time to leave
Home again
Airport food, bleeding ears
My head just cant take this
Daze

I left home, an empty bed
When i return, it will be the same
I am moving on
To where it
Rains

Its a swell day to go riding
Far out, heading east
Are we creatures, are we beasts?
You tell me

Forest Fire


Got handcuffed to my dream
I could not wake up
Left my foot in an escalator

Torn up between miles
From here on to Montreal
Got the cold bruise hit me hard on my face

Sleeping under ladders
Mirrors breaking over
Seven years have gone and i still don't feel good

My pulse is such a nail
Dead as the doorway
I have travelled all these miles to find it has been closed

My hands have all been tied
By the viens that run inside
I have locked myself to die in my own realm

Swallow storms of dust
My lungs are swollen sore
I cough up arrogance that burns out slow

Haunted by the lack
Lack of all that is known
I need someone to show me how it can be known

Struggling through this life
Like a bug in a forest fire
I came out alive but it wont be for too long

I am down
I am down
Down and under

I am down
I am down
Down and under

Shame (Haiku)

Got third hand champagne
For the champ, she was in pain
Rooftop high and stars

Ocean view and slime stone
The carpet moves way too slow
Beneath sliding floors

It must be shameful
I am begging for your love
It sure is shameful

Got trip when you called
Candle sticks out in the dark
Rain water and life

Corner room and wine
Cigarette smoke in the bake
Above clouds, we float

It must be shameful
I am begging for your love
It sure is shameful

Got name when you breathe
Fog lights in the dark of night
The chill, it sets me free

Whisper sins and dreams
Enchant me with a story
A spiral winding

It must be shameful
I am begging for your love
It sure is shameful

Lost control when you came by
Shame died like a fly
Felt like rain water and life

Paper Scissors Rock

My paper hands do much too harm
On this sheet that is full of ink
My detergent soul don't ease the pain
That is crowding in this sink
My empty bed dont make no sounds
When she is singing tunes from back in the day
My seven inch sin vessel is riding through
And the void is what is making it bray

My scissor mind, it ceases to breathe
When the paper, it wants to cut in
My dirt filled transperent gleam
Is what i use when i am feeling the pain
My damaged heartache never learns to die
When i am only looking for a kill
My wingless passion is not looking to fly
And the birds are now building a cage

My rock that has been flung
Is now one with the tsunami
The paper tries, the scissor dies
Cries out for a world that is not free
Her empty hands make me shiver
She sits silent through the guillotine
Curse or prayer or spell or bribe
No, that will never ever enchant me

This Poem Does Not Work

I got a hat that's made out of linen and silk
Got a shirt that's made out of wool
Got Socks that are made out of leather
Got a cotton lined pair of shoes

I got a TV screen that has a flush on its side
I can drain out of all of the boring crap
Got a bedroom heater that powers like a king
But it still doesn't keep me warm inside

I know
This will never work
But you don't know
That all i need to get these things to work is You
Yeah, it's You
Ohh, all i need is You

I got a toaster oven that runs on fuel
Got a smashed up car that runs on sand
Got a beach where i can't swim in the ocean
But the sun, it shines so damn bright

I got bar stolen coasters that i never use
Got a kitchen table where i make a mess
Got a blender where i blend no juices
Cause the water that runs tastes like lead

I know
This will never work
But you don't know
That all i need to get these things to work is You
Yeah, it's You
Ohh, all i need is You

I got a do care, swing low style of love
Got an empty wallet to back it all up
Got a don't care, sword high style of hate
Got a real loud mouth to follow it up

I got dead plant pots that i use for an ashtray
Got dirty rotten eggs on my breakfast plate
Got a hundred dollar bill for a parking ticket
That i just won't pay till my car gets towed

I know
This will never work
But you don't know
That all i need to get these things to work is You
Yeah, it's You
Ohh, all i need is You

I got jackets in my closet covered up in soot
I got Bod Dylan records that are all so scratched
I got sixty nine positions that i can think of
When i am thinking of doing Yoga with you

I got a big bad heartache from the morning before
Got dreams to heal it all
Got a loser ambition and a real long drive
Got the dictionary open where the word says "Paradox"

I know
This will never work
No, no, no
This will never work

The Other Side Of Hell

Rain is in the air
But who really cares?
My mind is blank as it was
Detox and refresh, life's a pause

Look at earth, it's not green
But has anyone heard a scream?
Your body is lava as it was
I am living in a trap, i am a mouse

Take me to the other side of hell
Where the fire's burning slow
Its a heat you can pretend to like
Just like i

Camouflage is in the air
But is there anyone real?
Your colours seem to fade
I hide so well in a disapperaing shade

Look at sunshine, it blinds your eye
But who cares if they are all right?
My intentions are weak and wrong
Somebody better find this song

Take me to the other side of hell
Where the fire's burning slow
Its a heat you can pretend to like
Just like i

Take me to the other side of hell
Where the fire's burning slow
Its a heat you sure cant like
Just like u cant like anymore
