Boredom strikes twelve
It’s later than hell
All I gots to do
is stay away from foods
stewed in
iconoplastic vanity
mashed into
drawn out fuzz
peeled into
dreams within a dream
mixed in a giant
glass bowl
a turbine
spinning sloppy froth
into creamy nightmares
and a side dish of
split rabbit brooch
hanging from a branch
on a lightning broken tree

[fata morgana]

Nixed and dissed
Gotta leave everything
Confused etiquette
Waiting for daddy
To come home
Like a six year old kid
I’m sick of the illusion
This quick fix

[crazycloud]

clouds break
i see
mountains like iron fingers
gripping the
flat green land
swampy land
rising to be caressed
and formed
like clay
by the icy
firm hand of
glaciers
twining like a snake
intertwining in
a thousand year dance
that what was once
water
forming
this wild land
like the slow moving
hands of
some ice god

the clouds reform
passing over the ocean
to an island
"their island"

the clouds form a distinct paw
giant and with well sharp claws
and the giant head of one of them
the bear god!

an island hidden in the clouds

this is their land

event bothers no one near
yet far still hear guitar guess
ghost must be a mess maybe
matters melt most when flame
same sure sun fun first skin lose
thirst time after mine field famous
freedumb dangerous as missing
money makes its way toward
politicians pockets please pray
often unless you guess not.

Tied so who lied like children
that can’t count continue without
triumph smitten sure i’d prefer
a moment to my self then wealth
wisdom or a famous girl to curl up
with at the end of the day say
are you art faix? no way lets play
perfect reason no season as sense
surely outnumbers fense line saftey
still bored fall on sword jokes folks.

[likeaghost]

it’s all a dream

broken records steam
sure they spin but let’s
begin back of the pack
soft simple now on track
twice as nice without
bowl just rice right out
of the clear chaos can’t
quit dear doctor strange
love like lost hope hold
fast forget fordged past
pardon passive jargon
i’ll take a break if you’ll
give a steak simple sure
fire fanthom famous while
others play pass the hat
help hippies scat stanza
after fact forward attack.

[move]Dog[/move]

Found her bike
in the dumpster
found her clothes
in the woods
she’s only 9 years old
only 9 years old
"help me find my dog"
innocence meets vitriol
help the bastard
find his dog
help the bastard
find his dog

Gonna lose this game
it’s all the same
it all works out
at quitting time
one face leads
another leaves
one is always lying
a layer underneath
the sky
peppered
with lax aluminum snow
belied white toxic
privy to alumni
air lining
council

[fata morgana]

Fate leaves
one step in flour
another dour flamenco
stance borrowed
from a passionate breed
prevents succor
from courting
concrete vengeance
a movable feast
a midnight maurauder
leaps
_ _ _ _ _ _ _­
surfacing into daylight

[fata morgana]

Sitting in some sh* hole
waistin’
eating cereal
watching
the 6 o’clock mews

this is where
one ends up
when told
to sit down
drown out
and shut up
be silent
while discussions
of impotance
go on
in a makeshift castle

where even journalists
are banned
from moving around
’cause they’re afraid
of shiny green apples
going bad
certainly not
of having words thrown
across their heads

they discuss
of even
the simplest lies
’cause you know
its always the same jive
as time goes by
can’t even put 2×2
together
only sketch a dead
arctic circle and echoed aftermath

no word on shuffling
all the women out of cabinet
or needed repairs or free
health care
just money, money, money
resources, expantion,
bloody unfinished evasions

more, more, more

[Yeah We Know]

Conformity Is King

They allow just one opinion,
and they will make you live by it,
conformity is king and you’re the slave.

Bow down to your master,
you’re under control
"You will succeed" they say,
but just in your dreams.

They take you away for a day,
just because what you say
is different from what they want you to believe.

They’ll take you away forever,
for being different.
For not being a robot,
built by the factory.

Welcome to the boards, Poe

I’m Really Happy: That’s Why I Wrote This Poem

Thanks, marauder
for the squished spider
on work’s front door
the splooge on the mirror
the gas grill turned on at maximum
the pen and carvings on the dresser
non-randomly placed objects
and shitty graffitti
that makes me think
I’ve been fucked
by every Tom, Dick and Harry
that’s why there’s something new
on my door

[fata morgana]

I’ll never know
what’s going on
in the love parade
oh
the next day
out
one day in
doubt has ruined
the best years
yet, though they stand
through rain and rune
through burnt sun
turn balmy
after first year’s run

[likeaghost]

seer eh oh’ll

came down drool
over words not herds
held dear nor by ear
exisiting enough stuff
sure fire first thirst
taken too shaken woo.

woe, where space so
show stand tall be ya’ll
yikes bring me vikes
vicious vain victory plain
passion prime stand stun
special lines reminds.

proximity produces
long distance looses
left over until sober
serious stalemate
sidewise pale late
like lessons learned.

my sub-contagion constantly flicked
sometimes during the sleep the clock ticked

i’m sorry I ever thought of you as a steel ship afloat
because rust can meet the bridge from the bottom coat

ives, don’t have too
we proved reincarnation so moo
like love in black and groove shoe goo
when dying young is ok because I can’t have you

and your name is of my heart and never more clear

I love you more than serials
I love you more than the heary alls
laranium is my no. 5 hope you never fall

Good Job my friend
