I wake up

and you

are singing in a million trees

get dressed

and you

have nobody left to envy

and you

see me for another time

and you

Say nothing

as you

walk past me

-s’s.

I don’t think I know

anything at all

I think I have a fireball heart

-s’s.

today I am mourning for what's yet to come, deep in the afterparty of death

Black, tarred, the walls eat everything up

grim appetite for the full dark night

-s's.

/I want.../(porcelain clash)/

I want to do what I used to do last

kept once, stored up, among the cupboard's real glass stash

(a porcelain clash)

must recover, carried to a glowing life bed

"Poetry surrounds us everywhere, but putting it on paper is, alas, not so easy as looking at it."

I lean in where I see you sway

whatever it is, I got to pave

many tunnels many hours

feels so sleepy, feels quite sour

I'll hand what you got in, at the

end

-s's.

Lifeline

I never really thought I'd wake to these mornings

be my lifeline, as I begin to draw it

whatever song feels good to me,

a psychopathic symphony

and whatever I see, I'll believe,

my photographic memory

-s's.

why resist the fire of you when it shines on me too

-s’s.
