- AYTAYP
Open up like the dawn, open up for the night
I know you try hard, but that don't make you right
Such a rotten sleight
Is there something left for me?
Just tried to be truthful, tried to be fruitful
Set sights on the loophole, and though success was doubtful
Got myself a mouthful
Are you talking 'bout your pussy?
- Gossamer
perched on a stage, I tried to sing
it was a cage, I betrayed wind gusts
blowin' on about our carnal fling
bringing out such darkness within us
but there is no evolution
without revolution
so forget the new breed
we'll be a whole new species
- Menomonie
if you want to, or need to, rest your hopes on something bigger
don't pin that wish on me
if you like to, or have to, wear those crutches on the surface
do as the others have done
but I don't believe in ghosts or saviors, or any magic in the world
and you've seen the light at the end of me, Menomonie
you were never told to try to sharpen your focus
- New Standard
started with a birthday, and lasted through the next one:
days like dead legs floating while the river runs
if we found meaning
profound, and secure
if we found meaning
how could we be sure?
our conversations
- Night Grooves
Eat around the rancid parts
Now your mouth is connected to a heart
It's hard to know when to start
You see me tryin' and you classify it:
Night grooves!
It's not something that I wanted
Just to ask for one more hour
- Seems
will that warm baton be passed along
handed off, and received so gracefully?
will the finish line converge with eternity?
so it seems, time pulls the beat
became one with architecture
her urbane face was displayed vertically
the skyline was her hairline, it appeared to me
so it seems, it was fleeting
- Self-Control
5/10/11, early summer electricity
Sunburst cityscape and a bat’s pale green melody
With the limerence of an immigrant for a newfound home
I didn’t call it a fall, no, when you offered an apple
And I wasn’t able to control myself
But you knew quite well how to respond
- You May Encounter
ill-suiting plans of twisted design
left you thinking, ""I caught the monster!""
we threw ourselves into the black hole
hoping to emerge somewhere real
ailing affection, and alliteration
you may encounter
it was a picture of confusion
