Empty prisons

Sweetest apologies

Blind I was but now I see

I’ll drop bubble to be free

And live it to my friends

They’re saying shit is bad

I don’t get it it’s a fad

Tool to use with wisdom care

But must stop sometimes there

All I’m saying this the rub

If perfection was the sub

Pop the weasel answers now

Holy cow what Fate endow

Needed it to come alive

Bring my mind to channel five

Get in shape I couldn’t move

So exhausted at the Louvre

Maybe now its time is done

Served a purpose for the one

Times are passing I relate

Listen to my friends create

It’s a doozy, shit is real

Can’t escape it got to steal

Make a buck I stopped it there

Took an oath and I foreswear

Have to take a break sometimes

I don’t know why Heaven lines

Every silver moon with pain

Stop to start and back again

So conflicted it’s a rule

Always I will play the fool

Why can’t shit just regulate

Why can’t it be healthy bait

Why can’t we learn how to be

In control of destiny

Why can’t tools be used with care

Why are teardrops everywhere

Why do they scream at the walls

When it goes wrong seems to fall

Category I deny

I can’t help but want to fly

If perchance to stay asleep

Never stayed up for a week

Rite of passage, so they say

But I flip flop anyway

I can’t guarantee myself

I can’t trust believe myself

I can’t let it go too soon

But have to if the moon –

I don’t know how to explain

Culture of the trash’s gain

It’s a convoluted web of sin

Maybe cautious that I’m in

Just way too deep dear, I am scared

Can’t stop running from the bears

Tired of the city’s bleak

Din of denizens the street

When they laugh I fall to cry

Foolish wisdom never I

Always just too late to see

Truth that sets us free –

I want to heart is pure

But I fall when I endear

Playing roulette Russian style

Thought I’d just hang out a while

Am I wrong?  I need to know

Have to get up for the show

Help or hinder I can’t tell

Seeing them in living hell

Justify relational

Tell myself it makes me well

Stretch my mind to Heaven’s call

Have I gone too far

I can’t tell

I can pause if for the cause

Something greater in my paws

Reason to be stronger than

Desire when it moves the pen =

Why can’t it responsibly

Safely for the moon to see

Why must all things take so much

Why must I see as a crutch

Why can’t I find my own peace

Why do I seem to get fleeced

Why am I so weak before

Sight of God if evermore

Could I find the faith to see

Past the moment’s mystery

Could I find the words convey

This idea has come the day

I can’t move I feel so down

Missing chances play the clown

Heavy that I failed to be

Everything I wish they’d see

But if I’ve learned anything

Key to life is always sing

Find the heart and find your joy

Dig your soul till you enjoy

Every passing moment last

Every laying on the grass

Times that clouds were passing by

Paint a picture of the sky

Too depressed to even move

Fucked up bad and now I lose

Hope that time will heal all wounds

Hope that days will pass too soon

In a moment maybe then

I don’t know I just need Zen

Key to peace is latent heart

Find the center then can start

Cannot chase or need or want

Must allow for the savant

Understanding to relate

Endbeginning celebrate

Something better in the end

Lay it on another friend

If there’s doubt then fast the rule

Hold until it’s ready cool

I don’t know I can’t explain

Something deep within the brain

If addiction fades away

Could we find another way

Is there safety in the serum

Psychedelic heal and hear them

Just needing some understanding

Listen close when they’re demanding

Love cannot be usurped by

But the heart knows by and by

Can we solve for primacy

Is solution in the sea

I am guilty yes it’s true

Had to know what 2 and 2

Making 5 yes really true

3 to be or foreswear blue

Feeling down my head is torn

Why must things be so forlorn

Taking issue with the man

Pharma cartel understand

Please understand this shit is real

Poison hospital they steal

Bank a dollar on the curb

Toss them out yeah it’s absurd

How to find the middle ground

Somehow healthier the sound

Deeper rhythm pitcher’s mound

Free from sin perhaps I’m found

Still I find it hard to see

What the fear brings to a bee

Fly alone or with a friend

Resurrect the heart to mend

Buzzing bonkers is it wrong?

Can I write another song?

How to live with peace

Because it’s been so long –

I live in constant fear

Of the tragedy that seared

Forever in my soul

Recover droll –

If the grey morning fades away too soon

Then I will pray for the falling of the moon

And hope to God that a precious dark eclipse

Will not escape the biding time of my lips

So I kill another day

Finding all the words to say

If forgotten chance will make it up too soon

The story has to have gloom

So I really don’t know what else I can say

Just that this is how I’m feeling today

It’s a mess out there and someone’s got to solve

Before the problem takes itself to the resolve

They’re coming down with martial law

And we have to fight

And this just might –

But words are empty prisons -

Tuesday poem

It's been a great day
And it's about to get better
10 in an hour
and I'm on rocking a letter

What am I writing

Oh God will she be into me

I got no move now

Except for what I cannot see

Can't blow it open
This shit will piss her off
I am the pig man
And I'm eating from the trough

An insect landing
Orange silent I blow it away

I'm feeling guilty
For all the things I want to say

I'm in too deep now
I am no warlord just a bard
But manic visions
Come to me at the bar

I gotta run away
I gotta go and hide
Or sell more papers
Yeah I'm feeling high -

Cause everybody else's hits
Are bigger than mine
I'd get my ass kicked
Running free to Caroline

Down in LA
We'll dance the night away
And the hood to qwell and organize the fray

Divide and conquer
Yeah that's what whitey say

So give them fucking freebase farting
Easy peasy beautiful
Addiction will fade away

Or so I say

As I'm thinking down on perilous
My journey falling hard

As the Bard passes
Idle time away -

Cause I never want to fight again
So perfect love we can

I'm never high enough to play in the band

And I'll never be

I see

So I see

So icey in Alaska
Snowdrops falling hard
In the frozen tundra
Driving in a supercar

Or in the mud

A tank made of oysters with a
Silly putty HUD

So how down there

LA sun and sand is where

In the final night that rest
will surely come

Under the sun

Tell me a story
Tell me you're young

Cause I fear my soul of grandfather
The legacy unsung

Wut why to worry

I got a wingman sing it true

If I'm not into you

I am a guilty man

Please understand

Cause I don't want to make you cry
Or if I do I'm guilty why
When I cried again while writing on my bed
And drinking lead

But the DNA could prolly never dead
To get ahead

Don't bring me down
Don't make a sound
Oh please don't make me frown
I need a smile -

I'm calculating DNA traces in the wind
I can't be weaker than a sin

My mystery-
By the sea-

Neurons are trees -
They hear you breathe -
If the Earth it listens biding time
To hang on every word

It's a bit absurd

Does the digital hide in encrypted bird

Dragonfly

Pigeons chasing crumbs a message hastened
When the time is right
I cannot play it easy
For another night

If my bipolar nutso broken asse's

Words appeal to you

I'll play it true -

I have to end this somewhere -

If looking back I ever bother reading
What I wrote this day

My advice to you is stay

And to stay

Another day

If the road gets rough you have to hang
On tree tenaciously

If you cry the tears will wash away and see -

If you ever wonder what you thought

When doubted action reared

Its ugly head and you had to scratch your beard

Then this day

As you're reading this in May

Just remember -

It felt this way -

Memorial Day

They fought for life

They fought for us

A fucked up painting on the bus

When glory felt the cause was true

Ain't been real since World War 2

But I respect

And give my thanks

My honor for the highest stakes

And wishing peace upon the land

I still can say I understand

And I bless the fallen sacrifice

But I'm tired of playing nice -

Wine was the weeping willow

Wine was the weeping willow
Take me out to sea
Old lyrics thought in passing
Older part of me

Halfway to endpoint delta
I've got to be free
Tired of saying over
Just believe in me

Hike will we up a mountain
Everest sounds nice
No tank I'm breathing lightly
Mile to the ice

Jump out a cruising liner
Atmosphere times three
Jetstreaming in a glider
Drop it to the sea

No ropes get hit by lightning
I am no sadist
Just in a bad mood lately
Girl you've got me pissed

I tell you everything and then some
You barely listen

Why do you play the fool some
Times you play chicken

You still think money's something
Only got the world

I offer something more than
20,000 pearls

Under the sea

You can't imagine

What you could do with me

I don't know if another
Solves our huge problems
I'll rock another suffer
Maybe if the M's

Because I fear to go there
Girl please understand

I don't take marriage lightly
As I ask your hand

They'll fuck up if I kill me
Fearing for my life
You are my wizard safely
Words I found through strife

Another day of suffer

Things do not bode well

I'm not the kind who really

Likes to joke around

Anymore

Please don't be a bore

But if you take me girl I promise more

Because it's everything
You ever dreamed
We'll steal the code
We'll plant some trees

We'll play it cool on melodies
That I please for the ease
Of a quiet afternoon

As we lay in a hammock
In the sun
Just having fun
A day without a worry toking on a pun

Because you need sleep

And so do I

I am a tired man I'm falling from the sky

We'll burn it down
and give the 666 a frown
What the avenue the walking dead
It's all going down

Will we be ready?

It's time to up the ante
Playin on the steaks
It's time to fuck shit up
And wash away mistakes

I play with caution
I lose control

Girl you drive me fucking mad
And I'm your fool

I am no fool

But if you'll have me girl
I'm motherfucking cool

I am beyond the best
But I really need some rest

When I sleep in you
I really am a pest

And my apologies
If storming heavy seas
Upset your fragile equilibrium
And your peace

But I am not always nice
And I play around with ice
And this shit comes with a price

Sometimes I worry that I'll get myself killed
So chillin ill

I'll take it easy just in time to get a pill

So I'm done writing

I gotta run

I should really be at Folklife hun -

-----


Was it a warning
Ir is it love will cure the mole

It it's not working
Tenuki free so I can live
It all will come back
And then we'll all learn to forgive

To give your all and dreaming dreamers
Floating deep upon the night
It it's not fright then how at all
Could it be real

It's a steal
Keep it real
Sloganic masterpiece
I'll write you to the moon

And falling further
Repeat a trope
I won't say dope

Keep my art above the ground
So I'll sound

A little better feather
Crazy how it sounds

So choke the mind
The chicken's fine

A little off-tone but I like to stay
Open book so anyway

Said the man upon the ribboned stanza
Life goes anyway
On and on it just they say
That life goes on

I'll write my song

When I'm thinking of you God I'm too intense
Will you read or understand from
Behind this fence

I meed appreciation I'm a fragile soul

And I hope that I do not start to sound droll

Creole

Sleepy morning

We'll be sitting in the evening
On the island sipping Trader Jack's

So that's a brand

Why not I say let's go
Should I give you my page

Or bless circles down with sage

Up a better word I'm dropping shit I'm high

Oh sigh

Schizo shouting block it's me
When I'm climbing up a tree
Oh god what I meant nah
Just smoke a toke for Jah

And Allah will shine down with her glory rays
He stays

It is ineffable

And I can scarcely understand

The art I'm nothing but a pebble in the sand

So I'll land

And perhaps too soon I'm terrified to see

Sometimes I'm mean
But I mean

If the Drama Queens were rocking in the Alleyway at midnight
And the deal went sour and I died

I won't lie

I am an evil man who knows of nothing
Something missing in the dumpling

Only just remembered how to be

Human

Cause I lost

Humanity

I need a guide to help me see

Again what alive means to be -

Papers papers papers
Selling papers by the sea
Oh sweet another buck for free

Spent 10 and got it back and then
Hanging with a clever friend

oh shit I lost the guy's name

But I cannot go down there
Must try to buy some papers where

Rapping up loose ends and then I'm free

To be

And rock it to the hardest mystery

Softly it she said

"Oh no thanks my soul is dead"

Erm hyperbole my gift exaggerates

I'm not important

Leave a note in the code

For myself to recite ode

When I return and take my fucking company
Back from the hands
Of greed

Shit for free and then I see

That you are not my enemy

Why try to fight with Apple

Surely Acorn crumbs
Will come

But what form epoxy take
Try to dump it in the lake
Carbon fiber nanothreaded hardened shell
Yeah that would sell

Hard hearted
Why do they turn away
What do they worship they forgot the passing moon
Too soon

And now it's raining
I'm missing you

Missing Folklife but I will not come unglued

Painted faces hiding traces
Memory of life

When I get old will I still have a -

Pen -

To write -

Poem of the day

A piece of the hood
In the word understood
It's a little absurd
Indy film it up heard

A moment's desire
Not out to the pain
But it doesn't get better
I'm lost on main

Nothing I do
will quell the burn
Of my heart so stern
And so I yearn

My patience is taxed
As time drags by

Got a cool boss
Feels good to get high

And sell paper
A quiz realize

Why is it bedtime
at 12 high noon
I shouldn't have downer
I took it too soon

When the timing is of
I panic mode
I cant take it slow
But I gotta keep low

My words are off
Exhaustion sets in
For my sins -
Yes I'll always remember

------

and I'm seeing from behind my eyelids
Eyes close as I sleep

Nodding softly in the distance
I'll be counting sheep
This my cause my highest challenge
Ultimate kiss test

To get you to rest

When you've been up for so damn long
And you know every single song

Losing thoughts Oh God I might
    just pass out

In the park
With a lark
Till it gets dark

Time for a nap?
I should think so
So here we go ...

------

Into the blue
Enjoy the view
I'm through and through

How can I sell
I feel like hell

Maybe a sale
Cheer up with an ale

Library or store?
I'll always want more

I'll all alba Allah

And work for my Fathah

Near Father's Day
I've got no prize
The tears in our eyes
I don't wield dirty lies

Honest Abe just a bit
Well maybe a fib
Once or twice in a jib

When we hang out in the crib

But shit got a trip
She says it's over
Learning and growing
I guess i'll sober

And I am not mad
It wasn't this way
If you could not see
Or what I could pay

But I understand
I guess it's this way
Had to start

Another day
Another way

And I'll see you again
I'm really quite sure
You're a blessing my love
But things never were

So words carry forth
A boat to my isle
She's got style
And I really want to see your smile -

Deeper now the need it grows
Messed up wander in your clothes
Cannot calculate the solve
So resolve anyway

I need chill to half relax
Hop up rock it on the sax
Clinton too he's cool forgive
Obama chillin fridge

Radiator in the park
Dancing lady eating bark
Spin my quirk entendre going
Wash it all away -

Let's nuke LA -

Or blast the sky away

Throw a party

Desert's callin me from May

I can't stop talking
So I'll play it to the page

Was getting tired
But now I am a fucking sage

Will I surrender?
Will she not run but let me in
I'm going under
I am not wrong no it's a sin

Will she believe me
and believe in Alice falling

In the quicksand demanding no I'll
    be there some time

If we're not busy
Maybe chill cool and make some food
I will be careful
I don't want to come off as rude

"not here" she shouted
It rocked me to my sallow soul

Was it a warning
Ir is it love will cure the mole

It it's not working
Tenuki free so I can live
It all will come back
And then we'll all learn to forgive

To give your all and dreaming dreamers
Floating deep upon the night
It it's not fright then how at all
Could it be real

It's a steal
Keep it real

Life goes anywya
On and on it just they say
That life goes on

To write -

Midnight has struck

Midnight has struck

And my flag goes down

We’ve said it all

And I’ve still got a frown



The sweetest sweet has soured the milk

So I hang around

And chill with my ilk



To distraction run

To the bubble I’m free

If but for a moment

But it ain’t easy



And it’s taking its toll

And I can’t satisfy

And a line and a line

The page won’t fly



So he keeps up the fight

And he carries the light

By the manic compulsion of Heaven’s last fright



He can’t give up

Cause there’s too much hype

I’m just your type

We don’t even use Skype



Cause everybody wants to meet her

Toast a wine and dine and greet her

And the Gates surrender Jobs

Apple turns to pear to Acorn

                In the moonlight

                In the moonlight



Desperation echoes its latent calling in the mall

                I want it all

Another day another dollar and I’m done

                It was fun



But it comes back to us

Like a lighter on the bus

When we read the tags

Between the parking lines



And on the trains roaring by



So fucking high

We’ll be

Like a monkey climbing up a tree

When we dream together

In the night



If my word’s pornography

Offends your tired sympathy

I will smoke another bowl

Until I’m free



Sitting under a tree

And my best friend sits beside me

In the night



Under my coat

                Just for a moment

Under my coat

                 We’ll take a pause



Hitting up under the sun

In the park just cause it’s fun

Underhanded is the way I’ve got to be

It’s got me guilty



But it’s fun



So I don’t care



I’ll take a breath

I’ll take a pause

I’ll tap the deepest peace between the spinning cause



Away

Cast away

Once had he was



But then exploded in a supernova



Big bang

Hussein

WHAT THE FUCK THEY THINK THEY DOIN YEAH IT’S INSANE



I could go on

I could just write another song

I can’t stop even writing not I’ve been

For 2 whole days



I swear I can’t remember



Am I still high?

I never seem to come down long enough to sigh



So I thought

I’ll try the street

Number 3 it happened just a meet and greet



And I died

So I’ll live

It’s just a day

And again around around all day okay



My meter’s off

I chase the form

Every day yeah why not

Now I’m feeling warm



I’ll say it subtle

Let’s go make cash



Let’s go and kick some motherfucking crazy ass



I’ll drive a fifty

You’ll hundred pull

And together 2 or 3 a G or forthwith drop a bill 150

And then we stall



And falling faster

Into a spin



Till the spin becomes a blow



Oh God it’s Sunday tomorrow



I cannot go

Oh no oh no



My evil carries through the night

A few years slow

Because I’m older now than you



So take It easy

Take care on me

I’ll be your prince

And take it easy

If only I can be free



Oh God she’s dancing

Should I just care?

Or barely but it’s random

Wanna talk about my hair



It’s just off topic

I wanna dance

And play off word’s metaphoric rhyming lance



***Marry me girl, *** be my fairy to the world,

be my very own constellation -



Should I stop reading

How long it’s been

Uh seriously, what’s my time here –



(if they want more)



A father’s pride

Oh God I lied

Oh how I lied and lied away my grieving heart

                It’s an art

To suffer everything away until you care no more

About it all

So damn much



Should I smoke it up the daily

Or is it a crutch



I can’t get

On the phone

Oh God they’re watching

Oh but not telegram I guess that’s encrypted.



Sigh.  Back to random.  Jesus and the song switches right as I finish writing.  HHHHHHOOOOLLLY SHIIIIT

Dope fly

Dope fly

Magic eye

I miss the days when we were young

Before we started getting high

When days were free

And nights were young

And Mommy cooked the oatmeal son

But she never told a pun

So I was lonely yes it's true

All the cool kids at the zoo

I never was and never am

Just a footprint in the sand

And I cannot rap and the scene

Got me terrified

What the fuck they cuttin with

This shit won't fly

Mothafuckas look like zombies

And they'll kill you in a blink

Under the sink you'll lay

While your blood washes away

All the sin of humankind

I don't want your money want your mind

My heart is pure

And I'm terrified to see her

And it's not enough to greet her

But a smile laugh will get me feelin high

Until I cry

Writing again

Operating on the pen

I gotta hide my shit from them

I will not cry around the men

And I do not want to fight I swear

But I cannot get out of your hair

A bullet flies through the lies

Till I realize that the skies

Are more beautiful than sea-green crying moon of God

It feels so odd

I cannot fall in love again

It just hurts to be a friend

And I'll be there till the end

I've got your back

Let's hit the sack

So I can sleep one night

And come from my fright

Into peace I wish again that I never had

But I'm glad

It seems to happen

Every day for all I care

But the cutthroat boat that I smoke every day

Comes with a price

And I'm tired of being nice

And I will not fight

I shun the gun this is my right

I cannot kill I cannot kill

But muthafuckas playing ill

I know my own enemy

If divine will set me free

Niggah's got a right to glory

So I'll check my history

And again rock hard the time has come

This shit is won

And I'll wait patiently for pay day -

Cause shit's coming down

You better run and hit the ground

When the sweeps come through

I just want it to be true

And the day's end night

When we chill in Heaven's light

LSD in the woods

2C-b and it's good

Electric Forest got me feeling like

     my clone

I was alone for so long

And then I found my song

And a muse and another

And I found another brother

On the street getting high

And we stared up at the sky
And the clouds marching forth

   were lazily

by the sea

And in the water learn to swim

Center emotion with a grin

Cause I can't rap I'm feeling dim

Someone teach me here

And I'll pay you in tears

And on the beach we might arrive

Pay the ticket I'm alive

If the price of admission is a night of no sleep

I will not weep

But I'd really like to hang out in the deep

With a new or old friend

Hit the button click it send

And every word I say I'm fucking terrified

I wonder why

Shit's got real

And sometimes I'd really rather just die -

Sleep

The deepy inky restful sleep of die aye aye -
