My heart is on the clock.

What's a little bit more?

We're left without a shock factor.

Disassembling such an infrastructure.

I am lost behind.

This tattered map.

That symbolizes nothing at all.

But once again.

You cannot find your own

A Taste full of Grace

Today I awoke and broke this stamp on day

I lit the barn stoking flame with yesterday pain

Drawing cowhides and my duck visor hat

Started out easy with a tap tap tap

Rolled out

The half-life of guilt is regret

the half-life of anger is irritation

the half-life of grief is sorrow

the half-life of love remains

You were there and I was born in the depths of dreaming I had my birth

But I could only watch as you ended entering obscurity

I was there and you ended in the depths of dreaming you ended

Shipwrecked on the remote Praslin Island
somewhere in the heart of the Indian Ocean
we do what we can do just to survive here
Moral is low old lives quickly abandoned

We make our home in the Vallee de Mai
Such a lush garden has never been seen
Soil so rich that

The Dream of a Poet

I desire new landscapes
to mix new a combination of words
to speak languages I don’t know
a little like tongues maybe
but defining life
lung breathing and sighing
an assault to my senses
bleeding out
beauty
I will play with words
until I die
and maybe someday they will serve me
the right way

Whether you think you can or can’t You’re always right.

I think it means you can do what ever you want when you want how you want. Or you can do what you never thought was possible.

Read that the other day I believe it‘s true.

With those words I think of

Back to it. The dust mixed with pretty little dresses. Exhaust fumes fumigating within the confines of human natures beautiful people. The ones that rush shout through amplifiers at each other in confirmation or disappointment. Back to the loud night time noise the ever awake lights of midnight freedom and visibility back to the warm

Requiem...

In my mind just like heaven
The bells are tolling angels screaming
From every corner I can see them
Screams to drown the rain
In my eye just like hell
Salted lakes of evil demons our people
From the earth I can feel them
Rising faces left for dead

Fault

The deepest fault runs through the earth

Through my head into my history

My scars will make me

Before they succeed to break me

It must be our fault

We arrived

The guilt must be our own

To my dying friend

Forever is your face at my windowsill

Forever is your heart forever is your will

Forever are the thoughts I give to you

In this life and the next and the next
Forever is your soul though not in this world
Forever in this universe we do not
