machine long week finally
I can stretch my legs
daydream comfy this seems
like a thousand years
rushing screaming watercolor
brilliant bursting dream
laughing sunlight underwater
ripping at the seams
I want to go
my legs are hurricanes across the sea
my heart beats and beats and beats and beats
my lungs are expanding cosmos
my soul’s a new volcano
sundried thoughts I thought I
lost so long ago
feeling like a fern with
nowhere to grow
exultant lightning songs forever
moving like a stream
through these veins that shiver shiver
with a will to flow flow flow
I want to go
my legs are hurricanes across the sea
my heart beats and beats and beats and beats
my lungs are expanding cosmos
my soul’s a new volcano
cement sunrise baptized
by the afternoon
I take full breaths I feel
like the naked moon
shining heat I drink like water
spilling in the street
I will never be the same
oh
I want to go
my legs are hurricanes across the sea
my heart beats and beats and beats and beats
my lungs are expanding cosmos
my soul’s a new volcano

Don't Look Down

regret’s an old sweater
I wear in warm weather
I just want to scream don’t sweat it
I just want to scream just forget
things went the other way
a split in time and space
you can’t paint a portrait
without a few smudges
now coffee grounds growl
at me in the kitchen
the fridge sings along,
but the morning isn't listening to us
I’ve traced along the lines
of stoned words of my mine
I just want to know who I’d be
I just want to know who I’d be
things went the other way
a split in time and space
you can’t paint a portrait
without a few smudges
now coffee grounds growl
at me in the kitchen
the fridge sings along,
but the morning isn't listening to us
Meaning where it’s not
Nothing where it is
now coffee grounds
growl at me in the kitchen
and I sing along,
but the evening isn't listening
Oh, coffee grounds growl at me and I listen
the moon sings along
and green comets come crashing to us
don’t look down
now coffee grounds
growl at me in the kitchen
and I sing along,
but the evening isn't listening
Oh, coffee grounds growl at me and I listen
the moon sings along
and green comets come crashing to us

Ghost Jeans
03:29
|

there are whole days I don’t believe in poetry
there whole days I’m everything that I can be
my fantasies are magazines stacking in the corner
I’ve got big, big dreams I’ve got to get around
I’ve got big big big big dreams
Oh I’m a ghost
in a sunny room
what to do?
visions visions visions of wealth and fame
in forty years my soul will be public domain
I've lost receipts to teenage dreams by washing my black jeans
I’ve got big, big dreams I’ve got to get around
I’ve got big big big big dreams
Oh I’m a ghost
in a sunny room
what to do?
I take tylenol to forget all my existential problems
one for the money, two for the money, three ‘cause, you know
for all the times I’ve forgotten my lines, and six ‘cause I’ll never let go
Seven is there heaven? Seven is there Heaven? Eight is there heaven?
9-10-11-12
Oh I’m a ghost
in a sunny room
what to do?

Filament Shake

you rattle the bulb
burnt out long ago,
plant the filament
you know it won’t grow
shake shake shake shake shake
and you only talk about you only talk about me I only talk about me I only talk about you only talk about you only talk about me I only talk about me I only talk about
I stayed up all night
ringing thoughts of you
from my sopping brain
green with your mildew
green from you
toss turn toss toss turn
and you only talk about you only talk about me I only talk about me I only talk about you only talk about you only talk about me I only talk about me I only talk about
shake shake shake shake shake
my mind loops and loops
my hair has no curls
Is there something else?
Is there something else?

Is This a Terrarium?
03:29
|

a bird in a cage isn’t a bird at all
I don’t remember the word
just the color and the shape
a bird in a cage isn’t a bird at all
Is this this this this a movie?
terrarium electric sun
peel the orange of your life
tomorrow peel another one
a bird in a cage isn’t a bird at all
I don’t remember the word
just the color and the shape
a bird in a cage isn’t a bird at all
orange on the kitchen table
new super nova in the sink
each windowpane’s a waterfall
another day, another week
cold toast morning
dry eyes sunrise
stormy Coffee
am I outside?
apricot jam
cold toast morning
dry eyes sunrise
stormy Coffee
am I outside?
apricot jam
I wake up in the sun!
I wake up in the sun!
I wake up in the sun!
I wake up in the sun!
