{NEW VISION}

Eighty four

Thousand doors

Opened to

A new alchemy

And the wind blew

Through the emptiness

Inside of me

No longer 

Can understand

With my reasoning

Or intellect

Just some idiot

With a loving heart

A universal dialect

Moving at once

In ten directions

Cutting out the useless

Choice by choice 

And by selections


Time to balance
Indirect with Direct

{ENDING}

One good way to end

Everything you began

Is to stare into

The limelight of it all

{ENTRANCE}

Yes, I Would Love

To Enter Immediately

Into It's Enchantments

To Live

Each Never Ending 
Moment

Without Reference

{CLOSURE}

I Just Want To Leave 

All These Parts of Me
So I Can See It Wholly


Holy

{IMAGINATION}

Imagine A World

In The Absence Of Light

After That

What Is There Left For You?

Light Makes Up

Everything We See

Take That Away

And Its Absolutely Nothing

Which In Itself 
Is Still Something

{GEOMETRY}

We Spent That Whole Summer

Looking at Right Angles

Only to Pretend They Were Acute

Only to Hate to Talk

In Tongues Obtuse

and Reign Obtrusive

{THE PULSE LINE}

Never Again

Was That Time 

You Swore

and I Saw Your Face
Inside of a Whore

With Icons of Facelessness

Cowardess, Untruth

Everytime We Die

One Breath In

Then One Sigh

{A KILLER}

Oh Old Nostalgia

And Everything

That Ever Made Me Happy

You Ever Feel Like That?

Or Is It Just Something

That Comes With Age?


A Killer
Some 
Psychological Thriller

{MY IGNORANCE}

Reminds Me

Of Anatomy

Broken Down

Stripped of Everything

I am Wretched Child

Externally

Beautiful Child

Internally

{IT SAID}

You Will Not Hear

You Will Not Speak

You Will Not See

You Will Forget to Feel

You Will See This in the Future

and Cauterize the Suture

The Wound Will Heal

The Power of Sensation 

and Motion Will Steal

and Direct You to Me.

{ENVY}

That Girl

Who Transformed

Velvet to Sandpaper

Lost Her Innocence

to Thought

Seemed So Much Easier

When We Were Naive

Like a Needle and Thread

Sitting in the Middle of a Room

With Stitches 

Splitting at the Seam

{AFLOAT}

Hovering Against

An Hours Last Time

Last Sand Drops

Of Lovers Lips Locked

Like Paper Mache Skeletons

With Sand Dune Wounds

and Root Cancer Carcasses

Released Through Secret Chambers

No Keys Can Close

{COINED}

Clouds of Desperation

A Compass to the Sea

I Think Whales

Are Crying for Me

{SPLIT}

Tides of Divided Highways

Tales of Evaporated Cities

Wakes Move This

Alone Through It

Lungs Fluid Filled

Flatlined

Iron

Cemeteries

{SOUL FILLED}

She Wades 

Through Cesspools

To White Light

I Am Winter Fire

I Know All Too Well

{LUNG FILLED WATER}

With Every Sunrise

and Sunset Comes 
Remembering Every Moment

Then The Time to Forget

With Every Birds Flight

Comes the Crashed Death

With Every Near Sight

Comes the Far Last Breath

With Every Bullets Life

Eventually the Empty Shell

With Every Moment of Heaven

Comes a Moment of Hell

{DISCIPLES OF NOTHING}

March On, March On

To and Fro

Back and Fourth

The Disciples in Hand

Carry Four Cornered

Wooden Hypocrisy

Hurrah, Hurrah

To Holy Wars

To Shout and Scream

That Mindless Banter

Of God vs Man

Man vs God

vs Machine

While Wires Fell

Like Veins to the Sky

{SECONDS}

Time Will Fly

As Fast As

Your Heart Will Die

{ARGUMENT}

Everything We Have

Written Together

Has Been Counter Argued

and Argued 

Over the Counter

{THE MEAN MAN}

Marches On

Half Trodden

On That Beaten Path

To Remember

We've Been Down

That Road Before

and Over There

How I Planted 

That Garden

Then Destroyed It 

The Very Next Day

How All These Beautiful Things

Stemmed From the Flames

Of Chaos

{JUMPING OFF}

Taking That Final Plunge

Seems To Be The Next 

Step To Financial Freedom

When Your Stocks 

Have All Crashed

and There Is 

No More Equity

What Is The Next 

Thing To Wait For?

A Final Foreclosure?

To Sign on the Dotted Line?

That Debt That 

Made You Weep

That Life You Set in Stone

That Death Was Made
In the Cast

{USELESS PROMISE}

I'll Sit Here

At the Bottom

If You Promise

That Someday

This All Will Rise
To The Top

{SECOND AVE DREAM}

We All Live

In The Catacomb

no one has awoken from

Still Sleepwalking?

Still Living?

Dying From Dreaming?

It All Remains To Be 

Classified Information

There Is No Conspiracy

Or Leakage Of Confidentiality

{SINKING}

He Walks Right

Through Me

and Once Out

I Wonder

About His Next

Visitation

The Repetitious

Cluster-Fuck

That Preoccupies

My Space

and Time

and This Distance

Makes My Heart

More Dilapidate
Keeps My Mind
More Afflicted

{BITTER}

I Tasted The 

Past 5 Years

In a Matter

Of a Few Seconds

As We Walked

Down That Desolate 

Street Again

Many Have Walked

Down Before

And Realized That These

Are The Days

These Are 
Surely The Days

{THE RETURN}

And When 
I Come Back

I Find a Place 

That Was Never There

{IRIS}

And I felt It Beating Down

Like The Oculus

Like The Way The Sun

Beats You Down

While Dulcimers

Spoke Louder

Than Pocket Watches

{UNFOLDS}

Tomorrow Was Just a Day

That Never Existed

Yesterday Was Just a Day

Much Easier Than Today

Today is Just a Day

Transparently Revolving

{GIVING UP}

You Ruined Your Life

and Left Me Behind

To Make You Feel Less Guilt

And Less of Myself

All This Makeup in the World

Could Never Cover Up

The Greatest Massacre of Mind

The Afterglow of Silver Lined Clouds

That Come and Leave

At The Moment of Initiation

These Warehouses Are Broken Down

There Is Something Beyond These Roads

There Is Something Beyond These Signs

{FUTILE EFFORT}

Trying Too Hard Again

To Write The Epic

I'm Dead Ended Again

That Place The Road Stops

The Absence of Passion

The Oxygen Gasping

The Last Breath

Whiter To My Mind

Beneath Piles of Corpses

Times Hands Tied

Laying Amassed

Cut Out The Picture of Life

In the Most Intense Room

Inside My Head

Back Track to the Road

Not Far Ahead

{INTERJECTION}

Ptolemy Uncovers

Heavens Tin Roof

Columbus Discovers

Tracks of Deer Hoof

The Universe

Is Mapped Out

and Charted

The Indians

Are Pushed Out 

and Slaughtered

and We Still

Call Ourselves Civil

From Pay Phones

With a Quarter

Roll My Eyes

Into the Projector

They Captivate

The Dream Injector

and I Sometimes

Forget Reality

But Love

I Can't Remember

For the Life of Me

Because I Carry

The Weight of Two Worlds 
That Are Beyond

Soon It Won't Matter

Soon I'll Be 
Long Gone

{WE ARE/NOT}

I'm Already 

Blessed

I'm Already 

Watched Over

I'm No More

Stressed

I'm No More

Colder


All This Non-Existent
Creation is Getting Older


I Just Want To Co-Create
A Reality That is Finer


Instead of Me Sitting By Myself
At The Blue Moon Diner
Writing Down Crafty Poems
Of Despair and Hope
It Only Makes Me Feel
Like The Pope
Behind The Big Wall of Glass
Everyone Can See Through
But An Ass is An Ass
No Matter 
The Size of the Wall
Cinderella Wakes Up 
From The Dream
Realizes There 
Was Never A Ball
It Was Just A Fantasy 
To Make It Easier
To Fall


And That Really 
Was Never The Problem
It Was More of What To Do
With This Artificial Intelligence
That Keeps Reminding Me
The Being is Real Benevolence


I Am Not Absentee
or A Worker Bee
or A Looking Glass Tree


I Am That I Am
and That Is Just Me

{THE STATUE}

Word Sculpture

Eaten By A Vulture

The Bones Picked Clean

Evidence Of Torture

Left At The Scene

{THE MOVEMENT THROUGH ABSORPTION}

A Slow Pause

Has Faded

Rubies, Topaz

Emeralds, Gold

Luster Has Jaded

An Awkward Journey

My Bodies On 

The Gurney
In An Ambulance In
The Cemetery

A Locked Door

Now A Turn Key
Oblivion Smashed
No More I, Just We

Sense of Self Trashed
Now Just Be

The Fashion

The Tragic

The Trend
The Wall
The Mirror
Nothing To Defend

All Up For Grabs

Ownership of Nothing

The Business Man

Has The Tab

{THE MOVEMENT}

I Witnessed

Those Legs

Get Up

And Start Walking

Then Hit And Missed

Those Targets

Of Lips

With Words Of Talking

Then Forgot To Feel

The Thoughts

I Had Been Thinking

Rows Of Conceptual

Ideas Slowly Sinking

To The Bottom Of

That Wishing Well

Where We Throw

All Our Coins

And Our Secrets 

We Tell

then we wait, 

wait, wait

Feeling Closer 

To Hell

Still I Wait

At The Gate

But The Doors

Are Locked

He's Nowhere 

To Be Found

That Fucking 

Gatekeeper

Somewhere Sleeping

Asound.

Over My Shoelaces 

I Keep Tripping

And The Paint

In This Room

Keeps On Chipping

But Next To Me

Angels Are Singing

I Am Deaf On Ears

All These Loud Noises

Are Ringing

And I Am Trying

To Keep Up With 

This Rhyming

Forming Stanzas

A Beat Is Aligning

{THE INSTITUTION}

No Sound 

In Silence

Dream and Reality

Defiance

Not Following

Schools Of Fish

On Their Way

To The Nets

To Become

A Buttered

Seafood Dish

Selling Batteries

With No Charge

Directions From 

The Gatekeeper

Still At Large

Wanted For The Murder

Of Innocence

A False Sheep Herder

Of Dollars and Sense

{THE PLUNGE}

None Of You 

Are Real

Figments Of 

Imagination

Fragments Of

Exaggeration

Swan Dive

Into The Illusion

The Dry Empty Lake

A Head-Ached

Contusion

If I Am Real

To You

Please Show Me

The Way

So These Circles

I'm Running In

No Longer Sway

{GREEN BROWN MIX}

Times Divide Ocean

Hands Have 

Broken The Waves

Arithmetic Trapeze Motion

Goodbye, Dark Caves

I Have Had It Up to Here

My Ceiling's Fallen In

Your Just Nostalgic

And Bitter, Dear

For A Floor 

Supported Win

And A Gold 

Plated Syringe 

{TIP OF THE SCALES}

Master Of The Slave

Home Of The Brave

Cowards The Same

In Vernacular Choppers

The Strippers Stare

Copping A Feel Like Robbers

You Stole My Innocence

Like Card Catalogue References

I Was Left Defenseless 

{IN SPITE}

The Backseat Filled 

With No One

They Found You

In The Trunk

Some Sick Medicine

For The Depraved
To Clear Coat My Exoskeleton
Of Desires I Once Craved

For Every Needled Gesture

was Ten Seconds No Air

They Cut Throats In Your Sleep

They Couldn't Understand

While You Were Romanticized

Moved By Love Of Despair

Moved By Frustration Of Loneliness
Moved By Black Holes Of Abstractness

Climbed Into The Front Seat

From Every Which Way

So Their Fears Memories

Wiped Of Array

While People Couldn't See

Were Doing The Same

Running Into The Ground
Throwing Away What Had Became

Writing; Dear You, 
What A Fool I Was

{CONDENSATING INTEGERS}

We Walked Down

That One Way 

Street Before

And The Tar

Was So Hot

Our Bare Feet Burned

Right Down To The Bone

Cosmetics Were All

You Said You Needed

But It Was More 

Than Plastic Surgery

And Scalpels

To Me

That Was The Difference

Between One Hundred Miles

And A Million

If You Walked Them In My Shoes

But You Flag Down

Those Yellow Cab Drivers

Its Easier For You

{A/ISLE}

Babylon City

How It Weeps

Citizens Clawing

At The Grasp

Then Clouds Rush In

Thunderstorms Begin

Babylon Citizen Screams

Running Down

Unknown Streets

Unknown Frame Of Mind

Unknown Footsteps Beat
