Precious Shadows

All your precious shadows
Chill you to the marrow
Lengthy times before it
Still you can't ignore it
One life is too many
Sense are regressing
Cut your hair to see it
No one else can be it
Everyone sees that this world is hard-to-live
If you just cared then maybe you'd start to give
When you wash your face and you look in your eyes
Know when you listen it's not a big surprise
All of the world is as tired and beautiful
If your words were pictures
There would be no mixture
Black and white surrounding
Faithful to your drowning
Colors of your actions
Lead you into traction
When your mind is sinking
What could you be thinking?

Hurt Corner

Why does the thought surround me?
Lethargy walls and trembling feet
A sister who shouldn't cry
Centuries of a shifting
Mindbodysoul no lifting
The dead were given this by-and-by
Softer than a silhouette
The memory of a cigarette
And one more time to please forget
The signs of wild and clear
(The sounds of hollow and near)
Maybe the darkness hardens
Or opens doors to blood in a garden
Where guests should never be
Cleaning a room is so scarred
Walking in doors but looking to yards
A ward to keep people free

This is a Slope

The gift they gave me
Was small, patient, and ungainly
It waited twenty years to implode
I wrapped and unwrapped myself in a shoelace
Unaware of the point of the node
They came and kissed me on the cheek
I lay back to plastic sleep

Forest Parts

I hold to you an ashen branch burning on
Further and further every day
Embering always never gone
I sound to you a broken pond's metal knell
And there is nothing left to say
That could ever break this guarded spell
Someone is worsening
Someone is fastening
Can we feel that
Something is happening
Something is listening
Can we see that
Something almost always guides you
Something almost always chides you
Someone is buckling
Someone is running fast
Can we touch that
Somebody's rainbow broke
Somebody's light is low
Can we taste that
Someone's always there to find you
Someone's always there to bind you
A body bursts and cracks and aches at the sight
Hold a greenhew while walking by
On all the streets it would take flight
A battered tree looks everywhere for help now
Red, muddy hands sure sign of hate
Don't ask don't tell we'll never allow

Time creases on itself some more
So my wrist cracks to bed and floor
The ailing lake is back again
Salting for everyone who can't
Wind-formed migration
Cold lightning nation
Undust to have none
Which is the real one?
The hunter is inside the house
Can anyone help me get out?
I exit like a fire escape
Window of new, the thunder quakes

Temporary Fiction
02:22
|
|||
The moon is slightly small
From where I find myself now
She said to break some legs
The cruelest thing from her mouth
Pronouncing music's all
We were ever good at
Her hens were laying eggs
While I struggled with a death mask
And then I pulled away
And she was going, gone
To San Francisco bay
And everything was wrong wrong wrong
Still waiting the return
Of the sullen mission
Where winter is a burn
Of temporary fiction
But I would walk across
If I had a token
To where the movie ends
Or the beginning of an ocean

Heliotrope

A field in monochrome
To level off alone
The biggest willow bristles the tempered yard
A meadow doesn't lie
Outside is fifty five
A swallow cries as we walk to what we are
I see a fly too slow
For what I have in tow
A packing bag in a pile of birthday cards

Far Cry
02:44
|
|||
The shore was crackling
Late winter by the sea
I couldn't bleed again
Shiver close a risen friend
And if we'd ever touched
It would have been too much
Pennied bruises took me there
It was mine to be threadbare
Handle it delicately
Like a phantom body
His voice came so loud back then
I mined the fire hope not again
But yet we didn't know
Which month would come to grow
As barren as a bed
To wrest my foggy head
Black with some tender aches
I didn't leave awake
The mist, it spoke to me
Said he was mine to need

Tethered

I wrote the word "targe" in my pocket today
As the gray descended still
An ink-tapped present given to myself
In a moment of distant guild
Lives that are woven one breadth at a time
Three years ago I lost how to talk
Today I found again because of
Tiny music and laughter stalking me to say
My clothes are still beside my chair
In wrinkles left inside
No hair to shield me from the sun
And still marooned the pain't begun
And if there were lies growing out of my tree
I would stand and cut them off
But the risk of seeming natural relies on
Knowing when and where to stop
Under the flames there is a cavernous rock
With some lines holding yellows down
Earth tones are there too within the
Remembrance of a speckled brown as if to say
Be truth to what you tell
Or else a brush of wind could well
The helmet is forever on a wall
Until I feed its beck and call

I am a ripe desert
I keep myself warm and dry
Car rides and blanket maps
Hiding has gone awry
Smile wide so we learn
The home of unwavering bait
Pick up a vegetable
And watch it disintegrate

Make it Sing
03:05
|
|||
This heart cannot contain me
The words collapse as I speak
What I need most is not here
No one knows when it is near
Make it sing
Make it sing
Say nothing
Make it sing
When water comes to reflect
The weeds mutate at my neck
Don't take me back to where I'm from
This orison is so young

Almost Alone
01:54

How could there be another one?
Why should there be another one?
In spit of all I've heard
In light of all I've heard
I'm almost alone
How could there be another one?
When would there be another one?
In that moment I was
And in this moment
I am almost alone
