The sun shines here for clarity.
I must be having an emergency.
My heart is pounding with this urgency.
I want to trek back to that amorous time
That sparks magic everywhere
Sparks that sizzle your arm hair
& singe your most passionate capillaries
So that your vision blurs farsighted
& you are eventually spent & spoiled
& it's time to get back to that place from whence
You came & saw & conquered nothing.

Here kitty kitty
We found another one to help fuck you up
Another heartbreaker
To tear your world apart

It's a classic of the new age
Of chivalry long lost save for the last ones

Eventually I will have exhausted myself
with gluing broken glasses
Veins pumping the shards to my heart
Bleed you out, bleed you out
Purgation of old habits living easy,
Preying on scorching passion imagery
Imagery - Energy - Imagery
the allure of the heartbreaker
Who hurts everyone who gets too close
With blindfolds & earplugs
So no one can see him cry.

Because you do cry, boy.
Don't fucking lie.
You do cry.
Baby.
Because I held your head to my chest
And I felt your eyes flinch & your shoulders cringe
When I kissed your face & you said
"You scare me."
But only because you know I could love you
& that scares you
but of course it scares me too.
& I don't think I could love you the way you need me to
Because I'm scared I will leave you.

Losing sleep again
With these lines coming in
My words craving some place to go.
The streets at my feet
& my feet's got the beat
& the beat's got my toes in a flow.
My heart is exploding, imploding, morse coding
To my brain & my brain is trying to sort through
The madness. A massive influx of inspiration
Unfolding like a giant hall rug & I'm chasing it
Down & it's rolling so fast that my breath catches
In my chest. Pain springs up my knees & my eyes are
Vibrating & my fingers can't move fast enough.
& where do I go with this spinning
& where do I go with this meaning
& where do I go with this cavalcade of "Oh my god!"
& "I figured it out!" & I'm up until 5AM on a school night
Desperately pouring myself out, making a
Record of this portal.
The universe has got me, using me, speaking through
Me to relate to people who feel like they're newly
New. Freshly Fresh.
Opened & yearning for that moment when it all
Slows

Down and

*clicks*




Because it does click.
Eventually.

& those moments we live & die for
We wake up for & lose sleep for
Are multiplied & musical & every day is
Magical because really, if you aren't seeing
Something beautiful every day you're just not
Paying any attention.
Turn off your televisions & open your eyes!
Turn off the radios & open your ears!
Turn off your cell phones & wake up world!
Wake up to your dreams! Anything is possible,
Everything is beautiful, & forget those people who say
You can't follow your dreams
Forget those people who say you can't gain the means
To be green & serene & make a change to this
Suffering planet! Open your minds & share! Open
Your hearts & love your neighbor & compliment a
Stranger. Cause a smile goes a long way in the day
Of a man with a bad back.
Or a woman catching mad slack for staying
With that guy who treats her so bad. & maybe you're
Not changing the world on a mass scale but you're
Making a difference in one person's life for one day.
& your love will be repaid. This world is suffering
From a lack of love & we have the freedom to give it,
So don't keep it in, share it! If you want to see a change,
BE IT!

Eyelashes brushing lenses in protection from the
Soft cold wisps of windy wind & snowy, tiny snowy
Patterns drifting to live in the air & die on
His lenses. A water spot is there & you wipe
Wipe it away. Those long lashes tempting
Snowflakes from the sit to stick & live in your vision.
Your lick chapped lips sling when you smile & your
Morning coffee scents your breath, but I love it
In your kiss. Morning breath you bury in your
Scarf but I insist to mint down with my warm
Tongue. Your self consciousness is endearing in this
Way & when you split those chaffing lips in a grin
You show your imperfect teeth, some parts whiter than
Others, but there & spotted; so uniquely you.
& it's so simple the way you bury them in your
Scarf & you don't realize how beautiful these
Things are to me. "I love your warts" I say &
"My warts are ugly" you say. But they are yours &
Part of you & makes you unlike every face I see &
So I love them. I love those too long eyelashes & your
Bad breath & spotty teeth & chapped lips & awkward toes.
Because they are you.

Up down left right
Do what it takes to make it right
Eyes ears mouth nose
Make some sense out of my prose
One Two Three Four
Your shirt's still hanging by my door
Earth water wind fire
Cease to be what I desire
