What a way to die
Feet running off with your soul
Eyes sealed like heavy doors
Hands I cannot move
Fingers roped and glued
Shadow half torn half sewn
Seeking a life of its own
As mine lies dying
One. Two. Three…
The clock ticks inside of me
Or is it just my frail heart?

The time has come and gone.
My heart is on the clock.
What's a little bit more?
We're left without a shock factor.
Disassembling such an infrastructure.

I am lost behind.
This tattered map.
That symbolizes nothing at all.
But once again.
You cannot find your own

Today I awoke and broke this stamp on day
I lit the barn stoking flame with yesterday pain
Drawing cowhides and my duck visor hat
Started out easy with a tap tap tap
Rolled out

The half-life of guilt is regret
the half-life of anger is irritation
the half-life of grief is sorrow
the half-life of love remains

You were there and I was born in the depths of dreaming I had my birth
But I could only watch as you ended entering obscurity
I was there and you ended in the depths of dreaming you ended

Shipwrecked on the remote Praslin Island
somewhere in the heart of the Indian Ocean
we do what we can do just to survive here
Moral is low old lives quickly abandoned
We make our home in the Vallee de Mai
Such a lush garden has never been seen
Soil so rich that

I desire new landscapes
to mix new a combination of words
to speak languages I don’t know
a little like tongues maybe
but defining life
lung breathing and sighing
an assault to my senses
bleeding out
beauty
I will play with words
until I die
and maybe someday they will serve me
the right way

Whether you think you can or can’t You’re always right.

The ones that rush shout through amplifiers at each other in confirmation or disappointment. Back to the loud night time noise the ever awake lights of midnight freedom and visibility back to the warm

In my mind just like heaven
The bells are tolling angels screaming
From every corner I can see them
Screams to drown the rain
In my eye just like hell
Salted lakes of evil demons our people
From the earth I can feel them
Rising faces left for dead

Fault
The deepest fault runs through the earth
Through my head into my history
My scars will make me
Before they succeed to break me
It must be our fault
We arrived
The guilt must be our own
