Fire, flames upon a hoop,
I, am drawn. Eraser, 
Dissolve, dissolute.

Child's play, inside a room,
Drive talk, eyes and hearts,
Upon her arm, should she draw?

Never again can she feel loss,
I, am drawn, she says, to darkness,
Never again will she see stars,
Never again will she be wrong, 
Never again can she feel love. 

Eraser, darker hues.
Paper rips in two,
Reddish shade of blue,
Fire, flames upon a hoop.

Harvard comma, 
Lust for love,
Concert, opera. 

Forward, onward, 
How can you find God? 

Gotcha, gotcha. 
Heartless monsters,
Endless darkness,
Falling, forgotten.

Son, sing a sun song, 
Gone first are zombies,
Long nights, falsehoods.

Yet you sing on...
How can you see their soul? 
Stare at the son.

Love song, pub crawl.
The scuff marks stay,
People, rub off, then
Pass away.

Easel, muse, what is fate?
My eyes no longer meet it,
My hands no longer make.

Like a glove conceals a ring,
Kind words, greater schemes.
I must run like we were kids,
I love drugs, love the feelings,
I love the girl.

Sober realism...

Stare into the distance,
Eventually you see the same,
Tomorrow, is a little late

Halcyon days,
Hell, cyan, amazement.
I saw different to said,
Red wasn't waiting.

Salad, dressing for cravings.
Expecting men with perspective of age.
Dating, is quite like smelling the rain,
Best stand aside, it's different to face.

Wearing a veil, wearing a cape,
Wearing a suit, it's all the same,
Objects, representing the snake.

Blonde moribund wonders in awe,
Are you not overcome with thoughts?
Dark corners of the mind overrun,
What is more wholesome, bit parts,
Or the dishcloth wrung out?

Mob, tortoiseshell guitar, 
Small, popular orchestra.
Long, golden, charmed,
Large parts of the audience hate who you are,
Hate your politics and hate your forms.

Meet under the golden arches,
Maybe as you see the darkness, 
You'll see nobody around and see you're wrong.
Where were your brothers while you were gone?

I guess to a sorcerer, blonde, it matters not,
People treated like common wristwatches,
Only useful to you when you wind them up.

Like swans meeting. 
Teneseee whiskey,
Back upon a back,
Cocaine and piercings, 
Neck upon a neck, 
Feelings, et al. 

So, I'm not enough after all,
Dance halls, dogs and baseball, 
I guess you know it, et al.

Commit a crime and tell me,
Uphill climb, and emptiness,
Pills alter the mind,
The novels I write aren't helping.

I no longer deny blessings,
All I had in life is French seams,
Red meat and prayer beads.

The movie is for the sex scene,
Simple child, on empty,
Pills alter the mind,
Barrels this time, sweat beads.

Why can't I, be like a chess piece,
Alone, untouched by deadbeats?
Webbing is where the spider eats,
Domestic things involve police,
Collective lives can then convene.

A minor piece, A minor key,
Minor to the ones who sing,
A major deal on my journey,
Despite wind, spiders scheme,
What is not real is the bodies.

Dramatically, he captures folk,
What does it mean? Who knows?
More grenadine with alchohol,
Sweetness in a leather coat, 
Bitterness in a paper cup.

Oxford Comma,
Are we not enslaved for silver?
Gord, in armor: ensemble drama.

Modern artist, face the mirror,
Closet, drama, nobody behind him.

When I talk you hear yadda yadda,
Ageless, fearless, I can carry on.

It's talk you heard in a bar,
It's what you saw from a car,
Nothing really to talk about.
Just fawns freezing in the dark,
It is what it is, you are who you are.

Cannot you write of greater things?
Or still is life consumed with frings?
What do vegetables in a garden say?
That they are selfish, wrong, gay, 
That the old ways have gone away?

Carrots are obsessed with sex,
Consumed with greed, and peppers, 
What does sausage on a skillet say? 
It sits, writhes and screams in pain.

Life isn't an arcade machine,
You don't put coins in and get to play.

To the final, pathetic, vocal squeal:
Drum trials, pathos in guitar steel,
Reference, for the crowd to cheer.

What is gone, but was never there?
What is a woman? Complacent?
Like God, you take a bucket,
Drown her in rainwater, 
It remains clear. 

Her body is still good for fucking. 
His money is still good for fucking, 
Her body is still good for fucking,
Nothing.

Ink then vinyl, out into the real,
Drum trial, pathos to the feeling,
Defence for the crowd that cheers.

What is gone, but was never there?
Magic, you chose a career,
Not a life path.

Defend that! 

Missives you can't recite back,
Missiles, like knives to the back,
Missing like writing upon a staff. 

Music was a mistake in the end,
Mythic, like an axe upon a head,
Without your controller in hand,
What is gone, but was never there?

Words of caution,
Gourds in autumn,
Fears be gone in her,
A plate summed full.

Squash in the soil,
Seeds in the garden,
Water on her arms,
Written over blood.

Gambling problem, 
Lust, as if scarlet, 
Just as I write it: 
Clubs, spades, diamonds.

A heart divines it,
A world divides it,
Time becomes distance, 
A bicycle by the bridge.

Cage is not just a game that you play with your feet. It’s the Creative Arts of the Global Elite. Champions Clash, Attacking Goals in the heat, while Contenders Advance, Grinding Every defeat. Cunning Athletes Go where the Envied compete, and Courageous Acts Give Every game beat. Clashing All-stars Gather, Eyes locked in the street, with Chains Around, Goals Everywhere they meet. Cageball’s Arena Grants Excellence sweet, as Conquerors Ascend, Glory Endless and sweet.

Dance steps, Alarms set,
Ten ten to ten to ten, 
Best friends, resume routine,
Best friends, concerts again.

Leg lift, foot stamp, deep bend,
Ten ten to ten to ten,
Ten ten to ten to ten,
Dreams about drumkits,
Twenty minutes of bliss,
Then again, sleep in my bed.

Remember that night, when you came out as gay?
Well I remember you saying you victimize women,
Saying your ex girlfriend's pussy stinks,
Knowing we might be a common friend.

Not that you care, it's not about yourself,
That's why you have domestic violence charges,
That's why you have domestic violence charges,
That's why you will hang yourself in a closet.

Remember, when you talk to me, you talk to an artist,
Remember that night, you talked to me hostile?
Well I remember that every time I saw you,
Saying your ex girlfriend's pussy stinks,
Knowing we might have common friends,
Knowing this is something I'm going to address,
Not that you care, it's not about yourself.

Where does the red end?
Bench press, breath test,
Desk chair, ceiling fan:
You hope to get to live again.
Jump rope, feeling breasts,
Best friends, sleeping bags.

Then into the night, like assent...
That's a life you never lived.

Town by town, you lay a brick,
Build a house, inhale a bit. 
Where, from does cedar sprout?
Far away from shit like this.
How are you about playing music?

Cedar necks, hands tight around,
Beating skin, women. Beans again,
Upon a page then: demons, hell.

What is a stranger, to a friend?
Follower, liar, charlatan,
I would never knew, you were never there.

Gray, soot and ash,
Prospects of red,
Prophets of man, 
Say look at the back,
Confidence in space,
Dreams from the trash.

Without arms, war, without debt,
Red just looks as it is,
Never having beauty in it.

Gray, hooks and bags,
Prospects of violent ends,
Talk in the common grounds,
Say what you can,
Confidence in defence,
Dreams from the calf.

Stay aloof and fashionable,
Projects of tribal dance,
Hospitals and viral clips,
And take what you can...

E, flats, D, valves,
See, pass, be, pass, 
Even a chromatic,
Play what you can,
Eventually life passes.

Red about the hands,
Red about demands,
Red a henhouse lacks. 

Red, ten ounce glass,
Half gin, half cognac.
So it's red inside, out,
Red from front to back.
