accidents will happen
but i know this time what i'm after
aftermath of the last fight
left me scrambling to my knees
scuffed up like a bruised peatch
hard lessons that no one can teach-or reach
feels like a deep cut but it doesn't bleed
most certainly i've changed but it's not me
running out of resources to build up my defenses
my discord doesn't break-it just stretches
break me off a piece of your humble pie
did i catch you feeling something
oh was it just
a splinter in your wet eye
did i catch you feeling something
did i catch you feeling something
did i catch you feeling something
did i catch you feeling

batten down the hatches
this storm is going to be a big one
a record setter for sure
cold feet wet hair sicko despair
29-30 leagues under the sea
oh see i told you so
heavy with water 73% i think
globs of tears pull the string
to see exactly what we're made of
of course i drop the evidence
now there's only shards to look at
(freezing undressing love handles depression)
ruined my gold tooth on some sad stupid shit
chewy hot metal
thought it was something sweet
i could get buried in all my mistakes
real enough to make a quilt from...
swaddle me
but not too much
you'll swallow me
say open up
to see ruined gold teeth
bits of which are still all on my tongue
my teeth don't need money
cuz they are straight and everything
whatever they're straight enough
just got a gap from gold tooth yup
saddle me
onto my dead horse
up up and away
up up and away
up up in a way
up up in the way

it's hard to keep your balance
on the edge
shapes that resemble ships
keep coming in
sounds that ring out like sirens
keep whistling
keep whispering
i am shrinking subsiding
into my bones again
nothing more than reflection
of intention
i am mortar and brick
walled up again
can't bounce back
cracked
as the water's rushing in
stuck between hell and high tide
try to speak
but my mouth is full of bleak
words from my alphabet soup
pouring out
can't make cents of them
money's run out
might as well place two
pennies over my eyes
no look out
no lighthouse
no promise
no time out
got my head on backwards
or one too many screws
loose
too old to talk it out
is this deep water I'm wading in
waiting i
need a transfusion
pump some mud in my veins
and dump out my DNA
all the coulda-beens like a chorus
a cacophony of wasted voices
damn the chorus
damn the chorus
damn the chorus

you'll be submarine
stuffed in so stuffy
basement rooms probably
at my mother's house
i'll be pissing
those coins i made you eat
a dime and a penny
you know that's real filthy
filthy fish you fish
to eat money
violent i'll be
be ill violently
violence towards me
thanks a lot
or not
or wait maybe
i am real healthy
that's a lie
i'm dying
i am of tooth
tongue and teeth too
who live by the truth
the truths absolute
teeth i pulled again
pull likes hands open
open to see
see no palms hiding
hands they tend to hide
three fingers inside
and fingers they lie
to me only

i say give me what i want
and you say aren't we being a little zealous
you say give me what i want
and i say aren't we being a little selfish
we cut each other off
at the start of the sentence
never getting to the point
we cut each other off
at the start of the sentence
never getting to the point
so this is us losing touch
this is us turning into house dust
you say give me what i need
and i say oh
i say give me what i need
and you say you can't get it on loan
we cut each other off
at the start of the sentence
never getting to the point
we cut each other off
at the start of the sentence
never getting to the point
so this is us losing touch
yeah this is us or at least it was
i say give me what i need
and you say i can't
you say give me what i need
and i say i can't
we cut each other off
at the start of the sentence
but we heard every word
we cut each other off
at the start of the sentence
but we heard every word
goodbye
goodbye
goodbye
goodbye
goodbye

vested and bested
calamity knocks
stacks fly off in fifty directions
leaving it all up to the cards
hoping to catch sight of their shadow
fed up and flippant
keep your eyes on the recliner
rusty springs aches and pains
bugs on the windshield
i will mimic their splatter
watch the blossoming bruise
hot jelly beneath the surface
moving between spaces
*a three dimensional contradiction
my kind changes my kind chances
your kind fixes your kind fashions
a pile of tiny smiles and teeth
weave them together
what do they speak
of whom do they speak
clear and loud
is it the maker
is it the maker
is it the ear

+++++++++++++++++++++++edit
you cheated me out of my place in line
i waited emaciated i did the time
i had it all planned down to the tacks
the ticks of clocks they stop forlorn
that was your last chance
and no more chances
you cheated
that was your last chance
and no more chances
you cheated me out
out of my little blue heaven
that i painted now dust
into the flames of a fire
burning hotter than lust
your spell
i fell
now i'm stranded in...
that was your last chance
and no more chances
you cheated
that was your last chance
and no more chances
oh you cheated me out
that was your last chance
and no more chances
you cheated
oh now it's over and back again
you cheated me out
oh i waited patiently in line

from the corner of my eyes
to the corner of your lips
what gives you such a sense of entitlement
i am unruly substance
you are the solvent
so I keep my neck bent
as all your clones move past and cackle
alas what divine comedy
to think you were once so special
now i see you here
and here
and there
and there
post office clerk
the ticket attendance
a face on a billboard
my next door neighbor's cousin
you are the dime and the dozen
i'm in the twilight zone running from an illusion
what's wrong somehow becomes alright
inanimate trouble that fades into objects
when we turn on the light

i'd rather not say
if i'm a snake
or not
if so that's great
we're not supposed to speak
cuz snakes don't say
much of anything
just that dirt hates
you and you and you and you
that ain't true
but three
you and dirt and me
me i'll be body
but body isn't what you'd think
at all
to think you use
the stuff inside your head
and all
your tiny little hairs
do all
or most everything
that is deprived and spitting
that is alive and kicking
takes the piss out of living
snakes a hiss you're forgiven
he fakes getting hurt
when you push a pin
straight through him
right through his hip
one of the holes in his pelvis
then into earth
we worshiped first
worshiped at birth
we worship dirt
it's all about perspective
how big is the R between friend and fiend
the A between man and mean
you seem a little confused again
sorry dear i was speaking in parsel tongue
trying so hard to impress you
i stay hidden
yeah out of sight
my bread n butter is worms n bark
a sudden spark
a peak of interest
a widow's repose
you laugh like fire
too close too close
skin tiiiiiiight
how we ever gonna loosen up
for shaaaaame
clammy hands forever pressed against my thigh
a sigh a sigh a sign
a snake in the grass
with a pin through his ass
waits wait for what
and oh why for what reason
it beats beating up
being beaten let up
don't pull the pin
out from him
and don't touch
he doesn't bite
don't know why
he just doesn't
you touched
and he played like he hurt
but he wasn't
just help him stand he'll be fine
he is stable
stick him again
stick with him
sick or able

it's red
you're ripe
ish
sit down
let's tink
to tines
to being mine
to being me
two times
for he's a jolly
and oddly masked
throw your mess in the trash
i asked
i'll do it myself
who else
who's free
has a working body
raise of hands
or is it just me
raise your hands
who's body's working
maybe
i'll just leave
lay low
lay in mexico
estoy anthony
estamos magic body
learning to keep my head down
i cannot sleep
i can't even relax
such a price to pay
for being the good guy
never had a chance
to tell you why
i am a devil
always watching my step
Y para que? Y para que?
asi sera sera que mi vida
como dices en vivo y dejas vivir
a place to sleep
a scorpion on my bed sheet
no fan
no phone
a pistol strapped to my thigh
getting lost in the city awhile

one big body
04:34
|

|
i step outside
of my comfort zone
a moving target
pointed on all sides
heart sealed breach-birthed
dropped from the water
onto a cotton pillow
sand in my teeth
glass in my lungs
heat of my tongue
strength of my little fingers
pulling it all together
into a semblance
a fleshy collage
just an egg with a yolk
split off from one another
like two atoms from the same cell
self-guided misdirection
could you really blame me
now swirled all around
broken the cycle
no oil and vinegar
bodies alike body alike
pulsing through
oh my better half is my whole
like one big body
intertwined
no force is greater
than the gravitational pull
molten rock
my lips and yours
the universe folding in on itself
all my tiny hairs on end
like the rustling of strings
what music they make
what music they make
what music they make
