Yes I'm Talking To You Sir

You teach me about uncertainty
Reach out and break my back over your knee
Old Man when did we become sick friends
I can't remember life with out you anymore
Always peeping round corners
Like persistent shadows in full sun
My mind plays tricks
Tricksy
Trick
Old Man you laugh
I overheat meltdown and take out the Eastern Seaboard

Post This Somewhere If It Makes You Feel Better

I tie knots to make my bonds stronger
Chemical like gold wrapped around my finger
Lyrics ring paper binders under desk blotters
And just like C.S. once said
You're so vain you probably think this poem is about you
But
Buts buy nothing
I sparkle like sun drenched sand
Blue ocean clear
Shark me
Sharp teeth and bloody jaws

Chatter

Father brother sister mother
I am two but not the others
Too drained to try and discover
I shake I quake I shudder
Old man seizure rears his head
Bites my brain as I lay in bed
Whispers that I'm better off dead
And to regret the things that I've said

Some Round About Way

I am dry in a time of rain
Stale nervous
Unimpressed
Do you even care
(Honestly I don't care if you do)
That my roots die of thirst
You mirror image yourself
So now there are two
Personality split
Evil you takes pot shots at me with a cap gun
While Sweet you kisses other lips
I am dry
While rivers run deep and the sky bleeds rain
This is my style
Darling I know it's out of date

Behind Eyes

I sleep with my fingers in your dreams
I sleepwiththewordsallruntogether
You went and did it
You and your cronies are not as cool as you think
The scene has grown tired
I have gotten older
Wiser
I miss you North Carolina
I miss you Sunday afternoons
I sleep empty

Between My Ears

On my way today
To learn about the gate way
The Galaxy
I saw three rainbows
Three times good luck
and this Victorian home I am nestled in
Feels like another world
Three times I turn around
I swear I can still hear your voice
Even after my phone goes dead
