ive forgotten the importance of this tool, coping mechanism, chaos. . . whatever you care to call it.

its almost daunting. i think of where i was, and expect myself to come up with something new. i thinks this might be my answer for moving forward through things and taking it easy. my electronic love affair.

some sort of stability when i swear all they need to do is lock me away. the secrets not even my therapist can seem to harness.

i vow to make this something used. . . im all talk. i cant commit to anything firmly. im such a fucking flake.

some great
heightened sense of security.
wait. . .
for the time when you can
look under that pink umbrella.

stretched out for miles
i can grasp the concept
when you speak in whispers,
like there was nothing
to say.

somewhere beneath this rust
is a trainwreck of ideas
waiting for the first drop
of e x e c u t i o n.

some great
heightened sense of lunacy
is waiting to dip
into that syringe.

[Ear Candy |"Teardrop," Massive Attack]

missed your face
the other day
and i feared
that the pages had torn
themselves from the veins
we entangled
purposesly to forget
about the history
we neglected to claim
as our own.

as blind person
staring off, you have
been sought out among the miles
and airplane aisles that
cost the hundreds of dollars
that continuously effect
the progress of my grave.

some moving ending we
thought we could dodge, like
the folding over of our
existence as we once knew it
to be...
be it what you seek out.


ill be the first to admit that i miss you... and rather betrayed, in a certain sense, and only when pertaining to a certain instance. i would love to be your renewed sense of worth, but i cant bring myself to ever speak of these things. i just think you acknowledge it somewhere that you keep hidden, due to boundaries.

white sheets caked on from every angle;
&
the tickertape quietly burns, while the opaque
residue steadily sifts through
the enduced gases.

disintigrating remnants of tissues
fall from the heaviest of containers.

and press here, to sign your
life away. . .

so that softly the incoherent moans
can be heard through speakers
wedged underneath each and every
door.

all-inclusive is the rush of adrenaline
and each paralyzed sense.

deep down
full moon/cresant frontal
vision to sweep
the slightest smoldering ash
from the hollowed
eyes. . .
skipping beats at intervals
intangle the dreams
locked and what
matters,
like the sunset upon
your chin, is
aching to be sought
after.

but
dreams like unopened
eyes wont bring
another day,
unless the stars
pull everything
within reach.


miscellaneous funeral ramblings. six years and counting. . . lets not talk about evening the score anymore. it doesnt matter. forgiveness is key.

and while im constantly reminding myself of the priority of this journal, and how i should keep all things tied together, im going to have to separate myself //slightly// for this one.

it should be noted -- as if anyone actually reads this -- that ive started to work on my first book. once i get the files completed as id like them to be, i will most certainly have a link for all to see.

street lights fall apart
across the boar's crossing.
make sure you leave
some for the time
after you
draw conclusions from a blank
face
me when you speak
and look before
trying to grasp
onto the drip-dropping
state of unconsciousness.

words fall with the eyes,
and sometimes the flowers
shudder in the
bright light...
what would you know about

comments got you nowhere?


i miss california... and even more, ill admit, i miss his face and voice. i wish things wouldve been better between the both of us. maybe itll change, eventually. i dont know. im too out-of-it to know.

exhaling sickening-sweet;
breakup and arms over necks. . .
watching the rhythm
counteract the screeching
television,
one waited and pleaded.

grab the sunscreen
and look in this direction,
like youve been
well_aqquainted. youve
been inbetween
twisted legs and
well call a draw.

oh, you shouldnt be
so harsh on those little
organisms swimming
in secrecy.


i may be easy. or i may not care. . . i think it's both, because i never have luck. aesthetics and a good personality? well, i ain't perfect. sorry. i won't be your model, but i'll be your buddy.

plexiglas ten-fold waves
strike a chord --
like the ones whispered
underneath the chainsaw rays.
what it would take
to notice that this is where
things began, //i dont know// and
dont you think to resuscitate
this non-existent,
beligerante mind-fuck.

breakbeats have started, & havent
ended. and give up
the turbulent
stars to gain
the forests. . . the uncharted
territory that once
tempted fate and lies.

a desert lies within,
and one step will suffocate
each nerve like splinters
to eyes.

dare to give it a go;
the probabilities in your favor.


sometimes, i don't know why i go the distance to fulfill my dreams. i do so, because i know exactly where i'd like to see myself, and i only figure that after six (and hopefully more) years, that this must be the right thing, because feelings have always been mutual. but now, as things start to boil down to the very end -- as things begin to solidify -- i can only imagine that there's going to be one last bump in the road before i desecrate the distance. . . and all i wish is that the both of us can be happy. i would sacrifice my aspirations for the two of us, so long as i knew that he was going to be forever happy with his situation. yes, id travel and live 2000 miles away, just to catch an occasional glimpse of him smiling with her. i dont think it's permanent -- lord, i hope it's only an idea, but who knows. . . its not even like theyre dating.

i wrote it about jason. this man that i met through friends before he left for basic training. we had our nights of fun, as well as our nights of partying. it was just to express the chaotic, ever-changing feelings i had for him when i was frustrated to find that he had forgotten who i was.

Eyes of ebony to accompany
smooth skin of ivory.
A melody keeps flowing through
the shallow veins, like water in the streets
when the clouds can’t stop breaking open.
Every moment is sewn to another so well,
like the burgundy hairs that are entwined to make
a perfect pair of braids.
Burgundy; like swollen wounds and

silly, black stitches.
Straight out of Jonas Akerlund’s imagination,
it seems: a girl of surreal perfection.
The papers danced about, and...
"Miss Fortune, with your head held high --
can you come home today and
save the world from drowning in vain?"

as the hope’s been misspent --
compliments of the ceiling fan
as it whirred about
in the middle of the night.

and...
oh dolly, I don’t
think you understand me.
they’re all things free,
and I can’t reach them,
I can’t get the phone to ring
the right way. . .
pick (me) up.
its okay,
I know you won’t.

So it’s back to bed,
as thoughts still run
about in my head:
those little girls,
you’ve got to
clip them, and cut them out
of your mind. those
pulled apart and sewn together sisters –
what were they thinking?
you won't be there for always and for ever,
so, cant a girl get a refund?

and. . .
oh dolly, this is
where you play their
parts because you love me more
and you’ll say,
"...because insanity never looked
like lies, in the eyes
of trust and strength;
they’ve truly forgotten about you."

darkened lips of thunder,
your voice, it blows me away.
and, the covers, we were under...
finding how love goes, and works
as the drip-drop rain falls
from your body, and onto mine in the night.
there was something about the pain,
the lust, and perhaps your might
that kept me high; so intoxicated
your strength was the equivalent of lightning;
eyes like the sky.
and only your ghost is frightening,
when i acknowledge the trees
and hear your voice rustling breeze.


i hadn't thought of the words to end. making words 'fit' was never something i've had an interest in. it only drives me insane. however, what's one to do when they've got an assignment to complete that was given by another?

electric blender quiet,
just one kiss
burns the building down -- some riot
that sends us into the abyss.
and the trees,
they're standing alone in june
with leaves the color of peas
and nearby flowers colored prune.

your heart of crystal
still lays as evidence, on the bar,
next to the pistol. . .
our first weapon; a guitar,
its how our love was brooded,
or at least that's what we concluded.


something of a spring love affair. while i'd conclude that it's something i've experienced, i'm still not sure if i would have qualified correctly. once upon a time, things occured and i wouldn't have them altered in any way, it's just one more thing to think about when reality comes into play.
