deprivation

only because he pointed it out

time just evades me

is it so common to forget things?

on a tight rope
balance
poise
presence
it all adds up

how can i get a grip
on something i've never handled?

yawns consume me

i let so much of what i don't like in
that what i want loses space

bee stung song
burstin blood vessels
maxed out
overdrive

this is my prime
this is my time to be alive

curse all that contaminates
save the dates
bide the wind
and hope for something Great.

a red wheelbarrow

wonder girl

lost

aimless

indecisive

it could all change

it might never be the same

my mind follies on freckles

my tongue, a dangerous sword

how i hate to eat my words

i forget too much


my lack

pains me

the heat of summer
will soon burn us all up

i am consumed by yawns

daily delirium

coming down
going up


trying not to break anything


i don't think i'll ever be sane



living in a dreamland
living in my head



can't a girl just pretend



can i have a magic eraser?


"don't be too blind to notice
that you're too stubborn to realize"



the street lights serenade me
always have
with their spiderwebbed suns


untitled unsung
glory box of fun


so much depends upon...

elastic

my body is congested
full of pills
trying to cure my
wandering ills

giving me a high
a strange roller coaster ride
fidget
rivet
pivot

uneasy
stephi

but i am cool with everything

i wanna change
i wanna make
i wanna save the day

it plagues me

yet i am still happy

writing
confiding
lying

so how can it be wrong

how can i become more strong

when should i resist

when should i give in

all covered in chocolate cherry sin



experience breeds new words

Iris bore Eros


when will i know


when will i have control


midnight hath o me

my mind trying to
capture everything
everything

do i need a soul to squeeze

or

just comfort in the breeze

or

faith to believe

that i am good

and that this is right




the stars are always in the night

the sun is always in the sky


i must believe
in my mortality

how can i hold it all
keep it all
have it all


i am growing older

time will not save me

between thou breast
believe in me
see me
feel me
silently she

must

understand




when is satisfaction guilty

where is the line

who defines




making my own religion



the world hasn't end

i'm waiting for the

black hole sun

until then

micromanage the Rapture


Revelation on a rock



feeling ceases to stop



i am
i am
i am


because


choose to be
