realized the old name didn’t suit the new frame
the dystopian adventures in dating long dead and buried
settled into a solitary lifestyle
just a couple hundred acres of imaginary flatland
and free range philosophy
none of that preconceived nonsense they sell in the stores
a land of perpetual dusk
just the hint of the northern lights
that failing sunlight that takes on an amber tinge
feels heavier somehow
more substantial
you can follow the dust motes that lazily dance on the wind
here the only penny doesn’t buy a thought
it is a down payment for the ferryman
hopes and dreams are baubles on display
rememberances of a long ago time
no photos line the walls
just the occasional crack in the facade caused by shifting foundations
an oscilloscope waveform of settling instead of pursuit
the biting sand just the worn out remnants of what almost was
but never bloomed
just built a layer of venomous barbs to protect the dessicated innards
the dreamer settles on writing because in the end there is a tangibility to the grief and hollowness
not another stain on the sheets
or scar on the flesh
riding that same wave
seeking an average of causality
affecting effectually
then rather than now
easing into another run at rock bottom
limbering up for the leap of no faith
fallacies of phalluses
fake the funk on a photonic frequency
canned applause from the live studio ambulance
ambulatory absolution
stuck on alliterative allusions
look
we’re running out of time here
the fabrege egg and the swarovski crystal frame have structurally unsound flaws
inherently interwoven by the fumbling hands of creation and evolution
the die have been cast
if you’re reading this it is already too late for me
save yourself
and delete my browser history
rising from the ashes like a phoenix with incontinence and mild delusions of pander
grass roots polling
mainstream opinions
rancid grease in the drain
rebranding in an effort to seem hip and fresh
lure in the children with my ode to hamelin
a lone lighthouse
warning
abandon faith
cast aside the lower case t of dispersion
take up the viola
or bassoon
first chair in the orchestra of the damned
new name same insipidly drawn out lullaby
sleep now
they’ll be here soon with flamethrowers
so quick to burn the vermin with no regard to interspecial development
when they speak of us they will do so with lowered voices and fear
an infectious inflection
cowardice and vice
we were never here
is this the drawing a linen the sand?
