blight

theres nothing inside
and even more outside
invested my retirement
in all will seldom subside
if id wrapped it up
back up in the flora
down to the ice
was plenty high enough
i am a blight
a great big bright white light
all the old footage
still has me in it
and i can still watch it
til i get omitted
and it makes me laugh
as hard as i did in the past
then the residual vision fans in
and crud accumulates in my eyes
and sand flows up my veins
the grains amalgamate deep inside
and my heavy head cracks the windowpane
and i tumble out into the yard alone
and i become stone
i am a blight
a great big bright white light
these knots are too tight

have you ever been
bound up and thin
destroyed on a whim
comparable to
someone like him
snapped at the shin
the funeral din
its terrible you
better just keep marching
enough recharging
if youre so lethargic
why are you so worried
about neurotic things
still in the old sling
youre on the upswing
just shut up and hurry

dont step foot in my zone
its safer alone
dust returns in a matter of hours
it attains and it devours
the message is the same
no matter the typeface
do you think i walk around in my own skin
as if i own the fucking place
theres this feeling in my chest
not quite a pain not quite a pressure
i cant express it i cant explain
drinving circles round the hospital just
waiting for the heart attack to start
before i park
yet i still put the cation in self medication
its hard to get a positive charge
i can feel it in my bones

stop chatting with him
cuz u think youll realize something true
stop having visions
cuz u think youll find out something new
whats it like to feel your strings pull
must be nice to do what youre told
slight distate for your nest
but if youre doing your best
the ice will melt and youll find yr way
whats it like to sit still like its fair
the tides will reside and youll find yr way
must be nice you fall down the stairs
the dirt will give in and youll find yr way

regardless of your intentions
youre doing a great job
even though instead of where you thought
youre in an utterly different spot
zero to eighty something
pretty damn fast
what were we just discussing
i already forget
oh do i support the name change
should you go through with it
what does my opinion
have anything to do with it
ill just do what i always do
draft and craft and bastardize new ways to call on you

body

i feel inspired
uptight and wired
i cant see you anymore
not in my dreams
not even academe
brings you back indoors
i was just leaving
snide and deceiving
no sort of saddle to see
simple direction
undo concoction
body is topsy turvy
theres a bee buzzing round in my lungs
training me to prevent slips of the tongue
this feelings cohesive strongest adhesive
cause i wish i could remove him
i feel unkempt
bodys loosened and bent
im gonna stop soon
cause the body asks me to

belt

too much cargo
and rightly so
jilted himself
american crow on the belt
lessened and lightened
unburdened to seek
a point in the sky
to bust with his beak
out through the roof
and into the strato
no more to bother
still less to forego
higher and faster
hot and bereft
sixth degree burns
nothing left
