scraps

in my dreams it seems I leave my needs so eeeasily
an upstream breeze brings love and leads me to the sea.
the fish are fine,
their shapes divine
and their one true ruler
is me
Poseidon with his mighty trident
rides the tides with me beside him
guiding ships and striking blows
Great sea god now hear him crow!

Eighteen angels on my block
baking bagels strangled bop
how they go they just can't stop
pogo stickin on my cock!

self-immolating monks hunker down frowning about
inner quibbles, wiggling numb toes while taking blows against sleep
smack awake enlightened right with the world, now back
nowhere to shape the pearl.

exploding out into the void
white hot gas galaxies blasted
back through space-time delayed rhyme
wait for the date and hour, five
four three two one, now! Full power!
Sweetly sour taste in my mouth from the move -the view's
distorted, chaos no order, mission aborted resort to charades,
delay delay, replay our last lives' lost loves as we live on and on and on
buried in this metal casket ringed round a
damned asteriod, big metal Mary, Well I'm not going slowly
like a flopping fish, hit the button, up in the dash
eject. Flash! Bamm

Mother Mary, come in come in. We got your signal,
we know where you've been. Thomas is on it. Honest. Mother Mary,
do you read? Jesus Christ we've lost them! To hell with it.

The lord's here! No, it's just the name of the ship you idiot!
One of three -destiny's deserted us in this desert air's thin
check the lever. Radio down
--

What do you really mean? I dig your undertones
They hit me one two three, they shake me
ecstacy, crazy dainty daisy you are my flower
all of one, two, three, four more hours
the knife slides, scabbard sheath sheik

kafka

bow, bow down before but who watches us now?
court's adjourned, king is dead or nowhere to be found
Everyone grab your crown or better yet, serf the dirt

--

one, two, three, five!
Fibonacci's givin' bocci balls
away, where? out on the beach
out on the Bouuulevaard
look look look, what?
hear him call
Tisioni you owe me a game
Mafia offers ya the deal
to do old Tony in
Ya pal, ya freedom, so ya bleed him
and go to the beach where each
grain's making two more growing it grows
ocean's overflowed with sand can't stand
I'm swallowed my hollow body flows
in lights out
Godel's ghostly cries crowd my mind

Moving pictures hypnotize my eyes
glitter tickles the little lies my mind tries on me
free fall pixel tetris blend beatrice and beast's guest
civil unrest, blind disobedience, then you lead us

You really think about it? Aren't you stealing another's words?
Have you ever read the Bible or Pinker? Oh you're a thinker all right
Bright boy. Nation of bright boys. Old Andy's in his deathbed, sweaty head in
his hands, a big man. The champ, once. Waves rise
and fall like walls, but why?

Spotted pumas love grooves ya hips, ya got sass,
ya haunches raunchy
get off ya donkey now shake that ass!

Discern the world pentagonal sensory channel filter
the blur. I heard when babies are born they see it all as one.
When a baby is born we are born again
We are born again. Their cries are cries of life
Their cries are cries of freedom. Cries of life.
Cries of freedom. Rejoice, hallellujah, a child is born.
A child is alive, we live on.

If we could see what we've been through
a history of our lives tattooed to our backs
like a comic strip flipped to animate
the great, evil, stupid things of our lives
the bullshit times, the why's the when's
the never ending story

Everyone wants to take us out of the jungle
Big heads big brains big lanes language and humor
drunken stupor stampede. We're running back in if we ever left
full speed. When did we leave?

Why do anything? Troubled if you're reading and agreeing.
Sisyphus' fists of fury, hell bound Hellenist heaves his stone.
WHy, why, why. Fly over him,
carry it away. You don't need to push any more. It's all over sis.
stop stop stop pushing

umbrella rise, my parrot flies
dumb cell song of lienups
hell is hot, I bet
people don't need to work on tans there
hell is not, I guess
a place where you'd get any rest
and hell is swell I guess
cause I think it's where I've been all week
lucipher does his dirty laundry right next door to me
always burning his shirts
but that's good, cause they say stupid things
like 'Death to Disco' and
'Big Daddy D'
the lava river keeps starting fires in my backyard
come on! Where's the marshall? Where's the marshall
cherry trees just exploded
christ where is everybody

-tax time song

Oh hello there
Tax form one seven three
I see you baby
lookin over at me
It's that time
the ides of April
I'm gonna penetrate you with
a big fat metal staple
OH yea
You like that? tax time, I'll audit you
if you don't sign that line
OH yea
tax time

Evaporate glass doesn't break
split atom inside the dead
crumble decay, push the button display

perched on a hotel balcony
the crowd below, hoping for a show
screaming don't, or do it
screw it, you blew it, now doooit

It's a bright town. The citizens walk around
lamp shades on their heads, too bright to look upon.
Keep the lampshade on your head

empty head dried grape im 21 for fuck's sake
Ive just begun but my mind aches like I'm ancient
my pyramid's vacant
please take me away somewhere safe and quiet I
promise Ill never say a word

triage tree frogs with broken legs. pedo and baby Ted
twisted scenes shrapnel slits lungs, gills tongues touch
the fan in the hotel room - so depressing- so neat and clean,
how many has this room seen before me? So depressing how many
stories there are, so far back, so far down. So far.

I'm out. Sideways. Gulf stream floating me back east.
I'm down. Upside: got some green at least.
doubt I'll pickup but my luck's all I need

Hide in your mind. Push it out your spine
Defy your kind. Push it down now.
Refry your mind in the microwave
Tear me up in therapy, fuck that shit

"the world cannot be born" - quote from Salinger right?
the warts on my feet
doors and seats
forlorn screams pour
the world cannot be born
