AND?

                        Everyone is left inside when shadowed depths make this life.
                To know is to love being blind while understanding complicates pride.

                       'Should not's' ring cloudy when the last call means everything.
                          Captain Morgan's quarter let morality hear the devil sing.

                        Tonight souls will

KURTAINS

Interlude


The windows are open

There is light

And the curtains were drawn

To hide the night

 

The shadows move

There is a play

So on it goes

 Upon the stage

STAGED

 

At noon curtains drawn

By midnight intoxicated

The stage would spin all day

Then lights go out one by one

And velvet moon lights our way.

 

I wanted to build a stage and pretend

Then recreate a life I could play

The woman you might be the man

Save me from

Your fingernails.

They tear at my hands and arms

as once again I scrape at your insides.

but I never meant to cause you harm.

and your eyes.

They watch me with the calloused eyes of prey

as if I'm the predator crouched down in the meadow.

and I cant help but look

It’s the crevasses we crawl from under

That makes us who we are

It’s our rock hard Stonehenge’s

That becomes a sinquanon star

The Lord is my Concierge; He does things for me. He suggests nice parks to visit: ?He offers me bottled water. ?He can get me an appointment with a masseuse. He’ll call me a cab because that’s in his job description.

Rum With The Gods

My mind sits atop the crest of the wave.

A toast to morning glory.

Rum with the gods.

With every thought

comes a stick of dynamite.

Cold breeze blow my way.

Keep my ice cool.

Bang when the musics on

dont spoil this.

This feelings so romantic.

My chalice raised to the heavens.

As the day dies  taking the beauties of nature in its rapid descent  

it births the night. The so called end.

When god lies his guilt free head down upon the soft bed of flowers

the day bought into bloom

the shadows of the suns absence breed the evil vices now free to roam sin city.

While the world sleeps

I sing my song.

The flickering eye lids

frolic to the silent notes.

A successful insomniac.

I stand triumphant

unchallenged

and somewhat unfulfilled.

The foreseer. Unseen.

The common misconception

of the shadow man.

What I mean is unheard.

My message is blank.

Written to me  

scripted intricately.

Take your own pen

thats what i mean.

Every second soundless  

you bang the drum.

Thats what i mean.

To comprehend is vital.

To draw from

take what you can. 

Rewrite my words

with your pen

Laugh

Laughter pays jokes in measurements of funny.
The punch line of intent is worth all the worlds money.
Let's quick run the spectrum and see if anyone is truly left.
I made you laugh and you paid me with a lease of respect.

It's all that hope has shown itself to
