      eye asked for truth, i gave you practice.
      sorry says me, rules row ways.
      both but better being without seeing.
      double stand up comics contain certian treasures.
      earning earing hearing learning; nopes still dopes.
      crew on ropes, me myself and lungs.
      latter mad hatter, hate fear or wafer?
      which would be safer, me shell bout
      seems so sparingly with out merry meant
      just press the red button.
      if only it was that simple.
      trust burns rust away from the day.
      lost but where’s cost versus tears?
      years build in groups, troops pass my counting ears;
      time told you before not many but plenty.
      ante up, fill cup as you pass.
      Karma or kindness reminds may be me someday.
      who knows, owl goes quicker if thicker,
      strip away regret and remorse,
      or another discourse on truth,
      the potential for another Babe Ruth,
      heros deserve space.
      lies, wishes, new dishes
      plates gates, holding and lacking water.
      hotter not harder, smart with a dart
      in the air, care, bare witness to my wit less
      in tent, for rent, i’ll never see success.
      just guess my ambition, without contriction.
      subtracting devices led by vices,
      unstopable, yet talkable without a sense of wrong.
      i love it all.

        ode to drunk guy that thought J was dave matthews +

        is that dave matthews?
        did he really say that?
        hope he doesn’t stay and chat
        no redemption; none

        pardon my card i gain, no release or cease to flow so go,
        joe in cup, black no attack,
        unless you guess my alterd suck sess, diss dress, or this stress; my mess.
        singing booth bar graded out of times wins within my skin.

        be lime, not sub
        bye time, lot rub

        off sloop, dope? nope
        poor tray delay loop, scoop?
        Mr. Cooped up, shut;
        doors, coors, sores, open lores?
        mars roaming, cloning, snoring reality
        causing plurality, word out of position in substitution
        power under radar, never no or say her
        name tame blame the dame or damsel, minor to major,
        never had been a lad, northern like alaska;
        together but so seperate, desparate.

          world tour weak end

          the pain won’t go away.
          it’s cheesy to say, but truth today.
          my desicions lack precisions
          play bouncy ball wish fun for all;
          however slow, my mind stays low,
          look for fate, search second rate,
          ‘never look back in moment, but possible can’t it be,
          seems, dreams, and lone lee jeans,
          tore from lack of use,
          fused in cotton, probably rotten,
          like my life, never thought i’d desire wife,
          really don’t, but never won’t, smile bolt.
          a holding pattern of companionship would be nice.
          cuddle core without the bore in store
          for me, you see, alone and grown
          phone, known, wished rewind to find
          then what now showed pow;
          bucket in the face, still i’ll always chase.
          motion used to equal fun, now time to presious, jest us.
          wish, broken record of my can’t sleep, just weep
          insides, unhinds, no mind me, but see yourself soon.

            fools day

            place table manners aside
            along without hope of ride.
            hidden in send meants,
            rather hints.

            so be merry in mist mellowed visits.
            show sometimes, other sights seem so simple.
            counting to one, seventy times.
            worst still something.
            nothing not neither.
            written still smitten.

            always on
            nearly gone

              Act I

              My twin;
              Where do you end
              And I begin?
              My heart has not been
              As corrupt since
              Has yet to close its curtains
              To paying customers who blend
              Into their seats
              Seldom faulters on lines
              Masquerading its colours
              Or forgeting to let its character breathe
              As of yet to be as absurd
              As to ask the understudy to bleat
              Words complete, after the first act
              While standing three feet away
              Mouthing the same streaks
              Practicing to conjure the director’s deceit
              She has yet to weep
              While the masses are waiting

                Act II

                Bloody make-up
                Made up most of my day
                A monster, I play
                The mask too tight
                The eyes like to wander
                Underneath this disguise
                I swing the serial knife–and utter
                It is only a spade
                Cyanide caked with lemon-aid
                As the spotlight grinds
                The girth drops its mirth
                And barely opens its gate

                  Three-Ring Circus

                  Like a classical pianist
                  In a Three-Ring circus
                  Can I sing in Falsetto? No.
                  Can I put my finger on it–
                  one note?
                  To embellish
                  Or not to embellish
                  To house a theme finish
                  In lento-diminuendo
                  Cannot be Goldberg
                  Cannot be improvisational
                  Silence has an edge
                  Starts on a quarter half-note
                  Downbeat, on the piano top
                  The tiger roars
                  The strings stutter
                  Foot on reverb
                  Fills the gutter
                  Accent on 6/8 time
                  Switches to minor
                  It’s not over
                  ‘Til the seal with the red ball spins…

                    wish alcohol lead me hear
                    words without knowing
                    see shows without going.

                    followed bye with high
                    stakes seem a bit dry
                    during disscussion time.

                    spent a year, almost.
                    found a tear, true.
                    lost learning, still yearning.

                    a jump i will make,
                    a chance i will take.
                    wake up world, it’s cold inside.

                      eye cracked and chose the few.
                      i cracked and followed hue.
                      sailing wailing so much mailing.
                      waiting wanting wishing missing.
                      energy engages, quiting or quieting?
                      sitting still, retreating to form funtion follows.
                      my daze with haze alters every phase.

                        I love this one by R. M. Rilke…

                        You who never arrived

                        You who never arrived
                        in my arms, Beloved, who were lost
                        from the start,
                        I don’t even know what songs
                        would please you. I have given up trying
                        to recognize you in the surging wave of the next
                        moment. All the immense
                        images in me- the far-off, deeply-felt landscape,
                        cities, towers, and bridges, and unsuspected
                        turns in the path,
                        and those powerful lands that were once
                        pulsing with the life of the gods-
                        all rise within me to mean
                        you, who forever elude me.

                        You, Beloved, who are all
                        the gardens I have ever gazed at,
                        longing. An open window
                        in a country house-, and you almost
                        stepped out, pensive, to meet me.
                        Streets that I chanced upon,-
                        you had just walked down them and vanished.
                        And sometimes, in a shop, the mirrors
                        were still dizzy with your presence and, startled,
                        gave back my too-sudden image. Who knows?
                        perhaps the same bird echoed through both of us
                        yesterday, seperate, in the evening…

                          Never too far to fall, do I?
                          Mostly wish–more so, comply
                          Do I?
