i sink lightly into sudden seas
our minds freeze thrown from miner's trees

and sometimes i feel queazy from crumbs
dropping from the mouths of stapled thumb
we are the ones who run from words while the world runs from guns
can we come to a middle ground
i swear i found one over there by the sounds of the sick where the air is thick with care

we owe everything we have to care and care only
how long can the air care about us
longer the air cares about the dust it sits on?
i hope our metal wings rust and leave us with feet because our wings beat the ground we so luckily found to our liking while we were hitchhiking around
basking in nouns and verbs dictating what we deserve

but who really needs what they deserve
need is nothing in the eyes of words
eyes lined up like herds of sheep so when the weep they sweep away need and sleep under the sky they feed on
lets make love neath the weeds but leave our beads on
from them i hear the tickling rain's fading song
staining the dying dry fiery pond

before its gone id like to swim in singularity
invariably dividing into tides while widening eyes decide not to let things hide from them
their wings lied to them
they were tied to them with bloody vines

its funny how you find yourself in such positions
the decision to wake up and start making decisions lies with you and you alone
because loneliness spawns conclusions
yawns in the face of your intentions
extends in the face of interventions
as we mend the tender traces of our inventions

MARK OFF THE ROOF:

lifes not fair they exclaimed when i was small
they explained it all
what comes up must fall
who stands tall must end up crawling
you found a way live life that stalls the walls from closing you in when your less impressive
when you hang your head humble screwed over by being piss poor passive aggressive
next time you address me i might have less of a shit to give
i might have more of a life to live
i might have changed enough to love myself more
maybe just enough to ignore you and your ordinary canary coal mine mind

think what you wish
spend your time washing your own dirty dishes
im not apologizing for being the biggest fish shot in the barrel
im not sorry any more for seeming feral
im not apologizing for realizing your a terrible herald
im not fucking sorry for not being careful
im not sorry im me
im not sorry i ended up making it harder than it had to be

i hope you arent sorry for how you act
i hope you no one waits until after you packed
after you relaxed
right when your practically happy
i hope you double checked your facts
i hope you never feel like a hack
when your interviewer lacks interest
when your opportunity turns west
when you rewrite your past for the rest of your life
bitter brother and dead wife

whatever makes you feel like a man most
whatever makes you forget your wasted white bread burnt toast
whatever makes whatever your believe worth boasting about
whatever keeps your dead dad's ghost out
keep doing it keep it up
keep living up to nothing
i hope you live up to your dreams
i hope you never change teams
i wanna see you across the green field
wielding what you think is the answer
i hope you get cancer





PAULSBORO:

i left home the minute the option fell in my lap
i found myself living in silent hill off-map
an oil town never slapped with a federal cap
the refinery whines behind the whining of my trap
i learned i yapped
i laugh
and ask my uncle for a half
and jacked off to the idea of girl resting her head against my back

we lived with a couple of couples and a couple of cats
the black one took to rubbing her face on my hat
the other two needed a smaller animal to attack
so i sat
and got fat
fell into a pattern i thought i was better than that
doing nothing compulsively and constantly distracted

i reacted
tacked on a bunch of projects that required acting
then the couples collapsed
and the depression relapsed
i was left all alone with an empty floor covered in plastic
facts are facts i wont pretend living alone wasnt fantastic
no one to find dirty dishes to be drastic
no one to call me on my bullshit when im manic
moving around wont work right if you let yourself panic

so i sat around and enjoyed the town i knew id never be back
then i packed
and left behind a bunch of crap
and moved away from the deleware bay and the oil that made it black
to the friends who thought i either didnt care or i finally cracked

to the city where your safe away from where the crack is being sold
and the death of a friend makes people in their 20s feel old
where you end up putting the health of your body on hold
and where every strand of dignity is sold

everyone wants to buy things theyre just doing what theyre told
