The man wheedled away at my senses trying hard
and harder for me to sacrifice something from my life for him.
I sat awkwardly, fingers entwined in a protective fortress
hiding only god and our imagination knows what
trying my hardest to say with my eyes what my mouth couldn't
that I was there for the moral support and discussion
sadly not for camaraderie and I apologize
I suppose it was rude of me
but I barely have enough for me
and if I had more I'd gladly share
but I have to eat
and have just enough fun
that I don't go insane
or grow boring
just enough
to still be me
but they tried again this time implementing a long silence
instead of a sideways glance
and it sauntered out so slow I thought it'd never leave
but when it did
I just spoke my point
said my part
stated my case
ditto
and the conversation hiccuped
my realizations creeping in
a problem to be settled
when I have things to spare
not when I have time to sleep

(879.) Ulterior Motives 07/06/08
=---------------------------------------------------------=
At times when I see other people
I realize there's nothing
underneath
yet I want to look for it
anyways

(881.) Awkward Explosion 07/10/08
=---------------------------------------------------------=
I am an awkward explosion
(i suppose sort of an implosion too)
Wearing extravagant colors
like the 80s threw up a little bit
shoes like some pimp somewhere
an ideology of negative liberty
acted out in some romantic idealism
and I just want to be a dead beat
an artist
a writer
but I don't want to be a disappointment
to my elders
I want to further science
but I think science may have already left me far behind
I enjoy culture
all cultures
but I can't figure out a job
where I can just sit around
and soak up culture
not one you go to school for at least
I'm not switching to Anthropology
leave that to those cute girls
hell this poem is even awkward
I'm ending this one


(882.) Around Us (The text formatting may not transfer well to some mediums) 07/10/08
=---------------------------------------------------------=
I sat in the center of it all
and every noise of everything
r o
a us u
d n
from frogs to flies
made their voice
fill in the gaps
that ours did not
and every
shift
made them change their pitch
to match the mood

(883.) Diamond Schmimond 07/10/08
=---------------------------------------------------------=
A dish washer
is a diamond ring
to some girls
a diamond ring
is a promise
to most
a dish washer
that's more of a
"I don't want you to work,
because you deserve not to"


(884.) But First I Need Confidence 07/10/08
=---------------------------------------------------------=
I want to write love songs
but first I need a decent voice,
an instrument to play,
learn how to write music,
and someone to love
wouldn't hurt either


(885.) No Really, She's Not 07/11/08
=---------------------------------------------------------=
she's not kidding
that's a man
not a robot
and they all know anger
everyone does
she is in fact
insane

(886.) I Think Therfore I Deny 07/11/08
=---------------------------------------------------------=
how are you supposed
to live
let alone
survive
when every moment
seems exactly like the last
four four four four
or five
memories you've had
when every day bleeds
a little more
into the day before
and a lot more
into the
two too
days ever after
when life
is so cruel
that it doesn't have the decency
to be cruel to you
it just leaves you numb
laying there
lying
about the fact
that you even exist
when you both know
you don't
but no one cares
so you do?
you think
at least
that's what you've been told
and you tend to believe
them
well
not all of them
just the right ones
with the right faces
the right souls
the right eye
and the left eye
I never knew mom
or dad
just those people
who claimed to be
but I knew board games
and the sun
and the snow
and that guy
who promised to take me away
but just hit me instead
which sent me for a trip
but it wasn't a cruise


(887.) Love You Are 07/11/08
=---------------------------------------------------------=
Love you are a slow guitar
a galloping horse
sweet passionate kisses
awkward conversations
phone calls far later than we're both used to
love you are two broken people
becoming one working entity
when you touch
when you talk
when you're together
but you blind us
and we don't know what to think
when we're kicked to the curb
with our pants around our waist
and our hearts
broken in the floorboard
or buried beneath the snow
so neither of us have to listen
anymore


(888.) Not All Corporations Mean To Be Evil 07/11/08
=---------------------------------------------------------=
Ruthless men sold their soul
for some soil
and from this dirt they grew an empire
so vast and so great
that all competition had two options
sell out
be crushed out
when the blood had dried
the men held firm to their contracts with the devil
while other men lay broken
or holding their contracts they made with men
who may as well have been the devil
but don't think unkindly of those men
it is better to lose today
and fight tomorrow
than die today
there are martyrs
and times to be the oil
(blood)
in the cogs
but this was not one of those times
david can beat goliath
but mom and pop
did not beat Standard Oil
or Wal-Mart
at least the later
not yet

(889.) **** Ya Up Is What'll Do 07/11/08
=---------------------------------------------------------=
it was a wonderful drug
that fissured the senses
numbed the ambition
and made everything so appetizingly
accessible
and when the smoke billows out
you swear the blood leaves with it
and your mind
notices
every
teeny
itsy
bitsy
thing


(890.) Idiot 07/12/08
=---------------------------------------------------------=
Idiots don't even like to be talked to like idiots
you idiot


(891.) Clearly My Way Is Better (THAT'S SARCASM FOKES) 07/12/08
=---------------------------------------------------------=
Just because it's counter-culture doesn't make it better
just because it's pop culture doesn't make it better
so stop assuming either way you fools


(892.) No Honestly, Don't Take It So Personally 07/12/08
=---------------------------------------------------------=
Life is terribly unjust
but it's nothing personal.

(893.) Cigars Only (I know they're not too much better for me) 07/14/08
=---------------------------------------------------------=
It billows out and seeps into me
deep into me
my arms tingle ever so slightly
my eyes droop lightly
relaxation comes so naturally
tobacco
I know you'll kill me
and you've convinced me
that that's okay
it's not an addiction
when you choose when to indulge
(or so we've convinced ourselves)


(894.) Liberals Are Gonna Have a Tough Time Getting This Pass The Conservatives 07/14/08
=---------------------------------------------------------=
perhaps
if we think about it
in a twisted
sort of loopy way
the only way
we can leave the truly
smallest
of ALL the footprints
would be to walk in on ourselves
I speak in fuels
but do we honor our dead?
or do we make pacts with our children's children?

(895.) Articulate
=---------------------------------------------------------=
Good god girl,
you're so articulate
but you have nothing to articulate

(For reading purposes I'll let you know that the
first is pronounced: R-TIK-U-LIT
Second: R-TIK-U-LAYT)

(896.) Articulation As in QUITE a Few Meaning of the Word 07/17/08
=---------------------------------------------------------=
wings,
indescribable in their articulation
gray in color
wondrous in hue
they lofted behind her as she walked to him
arms spread wide
a choice in each palm
he bled life
she bled love
in a rapture of passion
and temptation
they mixed blood
and the child
was born into a world
undeserving of his imagination
and unappreciative of his magnitude

(897.) DANCE MOTHER ****ER, DANCE 07/18/06 3:53 AM
=---------------------------------------------------------=
My actions over-exaggerated
done three or four at a time
in some weird slur or ligature
of motion
and I could feel every ounce
of blood in my stream
jerking to the forefront of perception
as my body calculated everything
so seamlessly
that I didn't even know what was happening
till it happened
and every move is made more fluid
till I'm unsure where I begin
and the crowd ends
and the lubrication between us
is our sweat
and I am a broad animate sculpture in honor
of some God
somewhere
showing that I was worthy
for love
the dancing continued
the rhythm flowed
and we all knew
we were living

(898.) Bite Down On This 06/20/08
=---------------------------------------------------------=
Try not to move too
much for fate has a plan for
us all, this will sting.


(899.) I'll Give Love To Who I Damn Well Please 06/20/08
=---------------------------------------------------------=
The world is full of evil
full of darkness
unsettling
creeping
monsters
that you swear to me
do not deserve love
but I'm going to give it to them anyways
because I don't want to be
even more of one of those
demons

(900.) 07/27/08
=---------------------------------------------------------=
A better educated me will
make better decisions
get jobs easier
be funnier
spread more truth
will be better
I know this
a better educated me is what I want
I have the means(
books
internet
people
classes
etc)
I have the goal
I even know where to start
but I don't have the initiative
the drive
I sit down to read a book
and I'd rather do drugs
or play games
or go to a party
or something else equally
and instantly
gratifying
I've been told I'm not ADD(ADHD)
yet
I don't know what this is that hampers me
if anyone out there can help me
please do.

(901.) "physics makes us all its' *****es" 08/01/08
=---------------------------------------------------------=
you can craft a world of perfection
just by mastering a few billion rules
and I fully understand
why you think it's perfect a world
but we're gonna revolt
regardless
so,
stop forcing perfection
so openly
and try going for small victories
that add up to perfect?
Everyone's perfect.
Not just yours.


(902.) A Dream World 08/01/08
=---------------------------------------------------------=
The day starts when we wake up
the night ends when we want it to
candy grows on trees
the rivers are alcohol
soft drinks
water
and they're all
equally healthy
we'll all look like Greco-Roman God's
without lifting a finger
there's always something on TV
we can watch any movie we want
on a screen any size we want
we'll wear glasses as fashion statements
because they'd be useless otherwise
we could play any game we want
any time
we'd be able to map out each other's bodies
in kisses
in strokes
in gentle sweeps of fingers
you'd be pregnant
when you damn well pleased

and I can't shake the feeling
I'd still grow bored.


(903.) 08/02/08
=---------------------------------------------------------=
Life does not always allow you sapience and the trust of others.
I'd choose trust.
And hope that the others have the truth I gave up to talk to them.


(904.) 08/03/08
=---------------------------------------------------------=
you came to me in shades
i textured you in hues
the kaleidoscopic colours we spill
when we mix tone
are the pastels of our dreams
becoming our realities
and we'll never have to wake
because we'll always be sleeping
in each others souls


(905.) 08/03/08
=---------------------------------------------------------=
i drank of life
i drank of hope
of promise of safe tomorrows
of innocence
gazing in her eyes
she sang soft songs
and let me know
the world was an okay place
her voice
and milk
was the only assurance I needed


(906.) 08/03/08
=---------------------------------------------------------=
diamonds
cutting tension
fingers sliced
emotions meshed
wandering caresses
probing curiosity
fingers wet
we were children
playing a grown up game
i'm a child
playing my favorite game
the prize my dear
is diamonds

(907.) 08/11/08
=---------------------------------------------------------=
a simple gesture done in four motions
an exaltation of her glory
trying for justice in his actions
words merely highlighting her wonders
love etching in details
that both already knew
yet felt needed to be stressed
he spoke it the best he could
she kissed him the best she could muster
the world kept turning
the sun still set
and they slept in each others hearts till history ended


(908.) 08/11/08
=---------------------------------------------------------=
A field of snow speckled with flashes of life, brought on by a blade bringing out the innards of passion


(909.) 08/11/08
=---------------------------------------------------------=
Hope was not there anymore
Neither was she
But he trudged onward
For reasons unknown to everyone
now that God was dead

(910.) 08/12/08
=---------------------------------------------------------=
Waves crash
with tremendous force
washing away your insecurities
washing you away
into the music.

(911.) Principia Discordia 08/12/08
=---------------------------------------------------------=
I cafn clearly snee you there.
So don't thionk your're foodling me


(912.) 08/17/08
=---------------------------------------------------------=
he cut
another
thin
slice
of memory
from off the wall
so he could remember
tomorrow
what he could barely hold on to
today


(913.) 08/17/08
=---------------------------------------------------------=
I swear I saw a seed in that there soil.
But all I saw was a broken promise.


(914.) 08/17/08
=---------------------------------------------------------=
I want to hear and see everything.
That doesn't mean I want to smell, feel, or taste it.


(915.) Saliva From Consumerism 08/25/08
=---------------------------------------------------------=
he was dressed in hanch
and spread in fad
another drizzle
from the mouth of the beast

(916.) 08/27/08
=---------------------------------------------------------=
I think it would be good to be Ilunga
And to always shoot for Taarradhin
To make sure every movement I do has a little bit of Meraki
But what I'll end up doing
is writing a silly poem using words I just found on a site.
and assuming they mean what they say they mean

(917.) Sally's Dad 09/02/08
=---------------------------------------------------------=
I saw
the king came
from death to emeralds
to flesh to chaste;
he was quite the squirrel

(918.) Plastic, Not Paper 09/15/08
=---------------------------------------------------------=
it was on a journey
to wherever the wind went
wherever the ground was grasping
wherever the limit was
then 10 feet past it
through drowning sun
through weathers warnings
it would make it to the place
where all good things go to die

(919.) Age Enshrouds Us All Eventually 09/16/08
=---------------------------------------------------------=
his memory is not what it once was
he stared at himself in the reflection
he remembered doing the same at different ages
different mirrors
at different hims
these memories came to him
as they always do
when he is allowed to reflect
but the brain was weak
the mind was weak
the man was weak
and he shuffled off into the night
back into a haze of existence
that occasionally stops
to look at itself

(920.) Presumptuous Whore 09/16/08
=---------------------------------------------------=
there is no bridge
but he laid a brick
and she walked across anyways

(921.) The Moral Of The Story Would Have Been ****ty Anyways 09/16/08
=---------------------------------------------------=
I thought of a terrible tale
a fable with a sad ending
about a world we will not visit
about a time we will not see
I cannot promise absolute safety
but I can give you my word
and my work
this evil will not spread
farther than the imagining of my head

(922.) Milky Legs Spill Forth 09/23/08
=---------------------------------------------------=
a point
a split
a crack
a chasm
and it spreads
all the way
down
her
hosiery

(923.) Can you get HIV from drinking someone's blood who has AIDS? 09/23/08
=---------------------------------------------------=
a network of veins
brought blood from other people
and from their blood he drew life
into a vial
that he drank nightly before bed

(924.) Simple Minded 09/24/08
=---------------------------------------------------=
Mistakes were made.
Errors done.
But let us hope my friend.
We learned a bit and had some fun.

(925.) Too Bad Only A Few Of Us Can Dance 09/25/08 12:38 AM
=---------------------------------------------------=
the world beat steady on the drum
keeping up the rhythm
atoning for its creation
and we all pulsed along
to any beat
or echo
we heard

(926.) To The . 09/25/08
=---------------------------------------------------=
It's nice to be pauciloquent
from time to time

(927.) (Psst it's a record player) 09/25/08
=---------------------------------------------------=
in the old days the music would stop
and we'd hear the tap tap tap
of the needle
now it just starts over
i miss such definite endings

(928.) He Is A Good Man 09/28/08 10:07 PM
=---------------------------------------------------=
the man enjoyed the fact his bones shook when he walked
that his hair was thin but still vibrant
and though his jokes were not the best
they still made you chuckle
and a little victory
is still a victory


(929.) A Power Punch 09/29/08 5:47 AM
=---------------------------------------------------=
a guttural yelp
emerged from the man
he crumpled like sand to the floor
grains far fragile to be delicate
but a bit immense to be whole
and he began to bleed
like any man would
when broken

(930.) A Bouquet Of Ideas For You My Dear 09/29/08 9:03 PM
=---------------------------------------------------=
happiness stuffed into a sleeve
a dress to make weight of an implication
a beautiful array of ideas
to mill about their heads
stop and smell the imagination
listen as the petals themselves breathe to you
revel in the bouquet
it's a declaration
a personification of an abstract ideal
because all ideals are imaginary
but the line between the mind and there
is a rather permeable thing
so here is a thesis of my feelings
do you agree to the terms?

(931.) No Really, Thank You 09/30/08 5:23 AM
=---------------------------------------------------=
thank you for them
you know who you are,
I hope

(932.) Adrien Brody Was In Angels In The Outfield 10/01/08
=---------------------------------------------------=
icame

I walked
I walked.
And I walked some more.
And I played.
And I learned.
And I cried, but only for a little while, when it hurt REALLY bad.
(And a few other times,
but I was little.)
And I grew.
And I became.
Me
followed by
Myself
and me
myself
and me.
Not to say there's a few me's running around out in the wild.
Just saying, I'm not me anymore.
I'm me.
if you know what I mean.

(933.) And If He Does, He Won't Like Them 10/01/08 7:19 PM
=---------------------------------------------------=
He's right you know
That is not your song
This is not your musical
Life is not your story
you may be a character
but you are not the star
and I apologize
that I'm the one
to tell you
don't call us
the future
is yours
the moral
is ours
but
the lead role
will probably never read these words

(934.) AND SHE'S FLASHING DIFFERENT COLORS 10/04/08
=---------------------------------------------------=
the same slut
pasted
to four different walls
selling car insurance
this would make no sense in the real world
so why the **** is that tolerated on the internet?

(935.) I Like The Redhead Myself 10/09/08 5:22 AM
=---------------------------------------------------=
as they walk in powerful strolls
to an indie rock anthem of melodrama
as they sheath themselves
in anticipation
they're all so deliciously
fantastically
stylish.

(936.) Splish 10/09/08 9:28 AM
=---------------------------------------------------=
two drops in the water
two galaxies spinning into each other
the ripples bouncing off one another
so beautifully complex in it's simplicity
from afar
but so destructively dying
up close
I wonder
which of you
will win

(937.) And Even If That Band Knows Misery, You Don't Asshole 10/12/08 4:17 PM
=---------------------------------------------------=
Life is hard for you
I'm sure
as you enjoy all the comforts of modern life
as you rock out to your local metal band
I understand,
you're angry
(really you just have angst)
and that you want to express this
but turn down your ****ty music
when you drive in your ****ty Frontier
that gets ****ty gas mileage
because I don't want to hear about misery
from you
or that band that just thrashes on instruments
and don't get me started
on the ones that use classical instruments
and opera
none of you know sadness
so when you emulate it
it just comes off as you being a spoiled brat
so shut the **** up
listen to something happy
and realize that you're not sad
just insecure
afraid
and a loser

(938.) ∀ 10/12/08 10:14 PM
=---------------------------------------------------=
built into our brains
is the ability to be God
or at least the power
to emulate him

that is not to say all men
are God
it is to suggest that perhaps
we all are a part of him

so those of us lucky enough
to be God
should remember
that the brain
still need look after
the feet
the arms
and the rest of the body

Artificial Intelligence

so complex

Why is it caretaker?
And not caregiver?

It's when you take away the rituals

(943.) Remember Not To Forget 11/08/08 2:59 AM
=---------------------------------------------------=
it's the small things
the extra toothbrush
a half filled queen sized bed
shirts too big for me in a closet
and smells that somehow lie in wait
trapped after all this time
springing on me
when I think
I can quite get up the courage
to give away these shirts
sell this big bed
and throw out the toothbrush
smells that make me remember
I still love you
and I always will
that tell me
you're selfish for leaving
to a place I can't follow
quite yet

but know that I only have enough
fuel

to go so far
and you'll have to stop with me

my path is not the right one

(957.) I'll Take Narrativism Over Escapism Any Day 12/03/08 6:34 AM
=---------------------------------------------------=
At times I wish I could close my eyes and drift away
to a world free of worry and full of play
where you and I would frolic free
and **** in a rhythm of the highest degree
but I realize this is naught but fantasy
that I merely wish to escape reality
and that if I truly wanted Utopia
I need to fix this terrible myopia
For we do not create reality by observation
we create it by hard work, creativity, and most of all dedication
there may be ten dimensions
but I care of only the four you share with me and our conventions
we are ants continuously looping throughout existence
and to go in any decent direction I need your assistance
life is random; life is great
dreams are definite; but certainly not fate
so while this poem may be terrible at enjambment and sing-songy
the entire point is that I while I wish to run away I'd rather stay and bring you alongy
to whatever direction that the universe washes us
and to the reality that I hope we eventually make together, with varying degrees of success


(957.) Hair In A Drain 12/05/08 6:44 AM
=---------------------------------------------------=
Sheddings of my person
that is what kept you from flowing
you that is in nearly all life
can be defeated by a clump
of me
but can be fixed
by a distortion
of lowly metal


(958.) Grandmama And Her Dementia 12/03/08 6:49 AM
=---------------------------------------------------=
She drifts into lucidity
long enough
to defend her children
then she drifts back off
into her convoluted mind
only to call me
three more times
to talk about the same
thing

(959.) Death 11:47 AM 12/07/08
=---------------------------------------------------=
Death is discarding of the soma
we house the germ plasm
the genetic code,
our children,
and we pass the plasm
along to the next soma
so that we may live forever
though you and I
and everyone we know
will die someday
most of us
will live
forever
in the echoes
of our lineage

(960.) Evil Is Goodness Without It's Make-up On 1:39 AM 12/10/08
=---------------------------------------------------=
I see pure sadness on those horizons
brought on by lack of work
and abundance of entitlement
trust me when I tell you
you deserve no better than me
or anyone else
so when you're treated lesser
please don't revolt
it is only life
balancing itself
out of your favor
but I know regardless
of what I say
or what I may try to do
men will line their pockets
because "they deserve it"
and everyone will suffer
because no forethought was used
no selflessness harnessed
just the gentle cooing from the men
whose hands were in your pocket
"it's all going to be okay,
we'll get through this
there's no problem"
we will huddle in spaces
where we kept our junk
we will smoke often
and always be drunk
Hoovervilles of Self-Storage buildings
and looting of the neighbor
"Because I need it more."
entitlement to things you do not deserve
scarring of children just from the exposure of life
dark times creep on the horizon
no trumpets
no large fanfare to announce its arrival
evil has always been here in our hearts
but soon it will release itself
and whisper in your ear
"take it,
you deserve it
more than them.
with it's hand in your soul
wrenching about
"worry not my friend,
it will be alright."


(962.) "Skyscrapers are the skeletons of Demons." 8:34 AM 12/10/08
=---------------------------------------------------=
the most compassionate man you'll ever meet
is standing on the street corner
preaching about the end of all mankind
it's not as if he enjoys your chastisement
he's just worried about your soul
is it wrong to want to save us all?

(963.) Keep The Paper Near, I May Need To Speak 1:06 PM 12/11/08
=---------------------------------------------------=
his mind drips away
every second
so he keeps a pad
to catch the drops
he's lucky enough
to remember

(964) No Butterfly Will Leave Here 1:20 PM 12/11/08
=---------------------------------------------------=
I am sadness
inside an integument
that filters in
every emotion
that I feel
even though
it is only one

(965.) I Am Sorry We Will Never Go To The Theatre 1:39 PM 12/10/08
=---------------------------------------------------=
I'm sorry
I collapsed
inwards
in front
of you
how rude
of me

Love 956.

Glad to know you're still writing! Keep up the good work =]

Thank you, I'll try.

(966.) Now Smash It To See How It Turns 12/12/08 8:49 PM

beauty is a well-built machine
on the inside
and out

(967.) I Hope It's Just, whatever it is 01/04/09 1:03 AM
=---------------------------------------------------=
it's crashing
and I'm unsure
what
will rise
from the debris

(968.) Nascent Splashes 01/06/09 12:52 AM
=---------------------------------------------------=
the universe was amassed
by glorious nascent splashes
and steady ataxic simmers
at least that's what it feels like to me


(969.) He's Worth Object 01/17/09 7:20 PM
=---------------------------------------------------=
the men huddled in the womb that the shelter provided
for fear that every cold drop that hit them
would judge them lesser
and lesser
as men
meanwhile the children slept
the wind shifted
and only one woman
knew the true value
of her man

(970.) Black Atlas 01/20/09 12:12 PM
=---------------------------------------------------=
all the world's eyes
look upon him now
I pray he carry the weight well

(971.) Can you break a dollar? 01/20/09 12:27 PM
=---------------------------------------------------=
naught by color
but by good efforts
let us hope
for change


(972.) Serve Us 01/20/09 12:34 PM
=---------------------------------------------------=
Many years etched in his cheeks
waves in his voice
he asks for humility
for service
for us all


(973.) Besides, weren't you in Eurotrip? 12/25/09 4:13 PM
=---------------------------------------------------=
thin
they wear it on their sleeves
aimed at the prepubescent
foreshadows cast about their faces
hidden in their lips
riding on their lies
physics is more than what you read
it is what is done
for what is life but the motion of extensions
quoting to seem intelligent
mopey faces
and they all think they're so
they think they're all so
great
but we know
the truth

(974.) Spongy, Soft, and Wet 01/27/09 3:30 PM
=---------------------------------------------------=
Education is not what you learn
but what you retain

(975.) Stimuli 01/27/09 3:32 PM
=---------------------------------------------------=
You pump money into us
as if to reperfuse our systems
but just like the body
without changing conditions to a slower pace
and just hitting the ground running
our mitochondria
are just creating radicals
that are destroying us
from the inside out


(976.) We're All The Universe 02/04/09 11:17 AM
=---------------------------------------------------=
a child who is naught but a mirror
I grow my hair
a small recreation of
an elephant entering me
of trading eggs for life
and realizing that we are all fuel
I am a cluster
I am all
We are masks
acting unto masks
all played
by one
grip it and it is gone
I look into my eyes
and wonder why I continue
this charade.

(977.) Please, Take A Second To Complete This Survey 02/05/09 5:00 AM
=---------------------------------------------------=
Another needle withdraws from his skin
so thin he never noticed it harvesting him
a noumenal world floats just outside his grasp
he is lost in the rush to find a line
that's not really there
but he tries
and he scribbles
but they ask him another question
and he bleeds another nugget


(978.) EAT WHILE THE MIND IS EMPTY 02/05/09 5:05 AM
=---------------------------------------------------=
poverty can strike even the mind
when you do not feed
you do not grow


(979.) Same Soul, Different Diet 02/05/09 5:10 AM
=---------------------------------------------------=
the old god rested
shifting his weight
thanking the rock for it's force
the centuries had not been kind
and all its legs grew tired
it slumped to a rest
and coughed because the air was too sweet
life trickling from the edges of its mouth
once again
death scrapes away the body
and forever concedes the soul

(980.) Need New Subject Matter To Fill Bowl With 02/05/09 5:29 AM
=---------------------------------------------------=
shallow in

eyes shot
breathe out
shallower
frugality
blood

dopamine leads to artistry
and gambling
it tells you what is good
and just how good good is
it and of itself is good
so to say

(983.) I Wish We Still Called It Vis Viva 02/23/09 6:00 PM
=---------------------------------------------------=
Because life is not plum pudding
and decay is not uniform
because energy was not always energy
and vis viva is no longer living
I tell you we are all connected
but we've no idea where we will go
(and no one does)


(984.) Roll The Di, But Make Up The Rules
=---------------------------------------------------=
Life can be good
Life can be bad
Life can be unfortunate
Life can be lucky
Life can be a lot of things
But Life is only what you make of it.

(985.) The Watch Ticks 03/09/09 4:22 PM
=---------------------------------------------------=
a Queen ant scuttles across the floor
the sole survivor of a truth that never ceases
and a justice that always increases
looking for a place to make of home
There stands a man
whose face is always changing
whose cells are rearranging
and he does not stand down
God sees everything
but he does not choose time or place
or matter
for that matter
he simply sees how it fits together
and he tinkers
the world slows
we think it the end
but just because we never change pace
or direction ever forward
we assume everything is lost
when really
we are

(986.)Journalism Shouldn't Be Based Off Luck And Looks Alone
=---------------------------------------------------=
a stretched out tarp
smiles the news at me
blinking out some sequence of persuasion
and blathering on about how amazing
what it tumbled on was
jittering with insecurity
knowing it is already dimming
when it just got bright today

(987.) Just Saying
=---------------------------------------------------=
ceteris paribus
across all lines
I think is asking
for a little too much


(988.) Pardon Gib?
=---------------------------------------------------=
gibber gish
given out
one for each
but not each for one
not a single questions
gish from gibber
or from which gib is gished

(989.) Honestly, I Just Wanted To Use That Word
=---------------------------------------------------=
he tells a joke
where the humor is so subtle
no one can find it
he turns his head
shows his neck
and his face burns red
not from a blush
or a rush
nor a flush
but from the fact that no one seems to
auscultare to the body of his issues
so they feel the earthquakes
and see the shakes
but not a one knows what caused it

(990.)
=---------------------------------------------------=
Death is not the enemy my friends.
He is an eventuality.
One we must keep healthy balance with
if we wish to survive.
Because the world is finite.
And reality has limits.
They are grand complex walls
that start big
and may not always grow.
This is no need for distress.
We are still here.
We will continue to be here.
Till the everything quiets.
All of us must breath deep
but breathe effectively
patiently
and enjoyably.
There is only so much life to go around.

(991.) Please?
=---------------------------------------------------=
When I am done with my being
you may take all the materials I used
(for it is used)
And do as you will.
But do it for the benefit of all
let me be the particular
that betters
that fixes
that helps.
no matter how small that part is

(992.) Details Schmeetails
=---------------------------------------------------=
Government should be a God
or at least an engineer of a God
quiet, well mannered, ever watchful
rarely active
precise and effective in it's actions
but always benevolent

(993.) Like Piercings To Some
=---------------------------------------------------=
God would have you to believe
that there is a hole in you
one that only a man of his stature can fill
don't believe him
There is a whole in you
but,
some holes are there for a reason.

(994.) Seriously Though, I Hated The Flavor I Tried 04/27/09 10:06 PM
=---------------------------------------------------=
OH GOD THE TEA
IT BURNS
But reinvigorates my body with essential gut melting ****.
Like cornflower pedals and Pineapple.
Thanks Mighty Tea,
you truly are too mighty for a regular bag.
That bag being my stomach.

(995.) Legos, Lincoln Logs, K'Nex, Brick, Steel, or Play-Doh just wouldn't do. 05/04/09 3:58 AM

I piece together my perception
like a child
slowly
with intersecting ingots
of the finest corporeal
my imagination
can muster.

(996.) All Branches 05/12/09
=---------------------------------------------------=
She was draped in red and wandering with her companion
he was lowly and sauntered but faithful and warm

To her he was only a cigarette
a lap to sit on and be petted in

she wandered from door to door; man to woman
to whatever hand would touch her; just to feel that little bit of love

Large, lumbering, barking, and possessive
but sweet to her when no one was looking

small young sweet thing that was always friendly and flirty
he only slept in one bed, with one woman, although he slumbered in many homes

so easy is it to tell you the life of an animal
and you never know animal from animal

(997.) Rituals Are Just Things We Do To Get Stuff 05/12/09
=---------------------------------------------------=
one self-rolled place where two things are united
one hand-rolled bundle of leafs
two bottles of a strange liquid
brewed by some machine
somewhere across the ocean
sitting on a pallet
staring at the sky
reflecting back the city life
in an orange and purple glow
no wind
no one
and I am
sadly
happy


(998.) Patience Is A Commodity? 05/12/09
=---------------------------------------------------=
I understand it varies by person
but do we have a lifetime(read infinite) supply of patience
that recharges itself after being run-down
or is it something we chip or scrap away
bit by bit
till it cracks
and there is nothing left?

(999.) I Like This Tangram 05/14/09 1:37 AM
=---------------------------------------------------=
god made two pieces
that locked their teeth
and completed a picture
of what happiness felt like

(1001.) Condensation From The Fire
=---------------------------------------------------=
its just something you taste
not hold
nor saturate
let it wisp by
even manna is only made of dew

(1002.) There Are Plenty Of Treasures In There
=---------------------------------------------------=
The discrepancies that arise from stated goals and achieved realities
will always be disappointing if you shut reality out.
Reality cannot find you as it always knows where you are.
You will not know where you are unless you find reality.
So open your channels,
turn on your filters,
and actually SIFT the stream
not just watch it run.
