and the wine was good
fear was afraid
death was dead
life ran away
the moon and sun and stars
all shined their blessing
upon the dome
and this is how we

now quarter the man I was yesterday
however should I follow?
this path before me bears no light
the earth under me hears no name
Quiet calls me to its feet
I lay down before its bones
Ice runs circles around me
it dances and becomes me to join
but Quiet is stepping on my head
I cannot get up
I am gone
Gone.

when
is it time time time
to shine in the confines
of this tricky hive.
to dance
in this detestable lake

a hive of rocks and people
climb
unequal to the challenges ahead

There are no bounds we see
Until our limits are met, we'll be unable to excell.

Quite a radical change, this pen-to-paper.
And we might not just give up.

It's so dark out, with crazy-swirling stars.
Dive into these black waters
stained with maroon-colored Crimson.

Blindly falling as the water changes
No longer is it thick and heavy water
But free and chaotic air.

In these breezes of despair,
Lights of solitude blind us
Because of this, our savior is gone.

2011/08/10 : rolling starride
to cry in a ditch and forget about everything
the linear ride does not stop, it goes faster
and at the breaking point speed,
everything shatters into a thousand, million pieces.

this is the heart at its very epicenter,
like fire to a liquid, set aflame, the water is boiling.
to a cooling point, we shudder in the breathtaking speed
everything eases into a quiet, easy stop.

but the ride hasn't ended, nothing is over
everything repeats and you are more tired than before,
your memory is foggy and the present is intimidating
more intimidating than the past or the future
because what happens now decides everything

the present becomes everything.
it becomes your future, and in this way
it becomes your past.
the present is everything,
and the intimidating rises in the hot, fiery pit of your gut.

there are no more warm, fuzzy feelings,
or easy-to-see felons,
or people lying down at your feet.

there is just what is, and nothing changes that.
perhaps the ease of the slope has changed you, though.
perhaps you have become harder on the outside,
but your inside will remain the same.
you become an egg, with its brittle shell,
sitting in a carton of others like you,
waiting to be broken and eaten.

to be devoured like the food you are,
to be devoured by a ferocious demon,
a demon inside of you? outside of you?
can you not tell, anymore?
has everything gone awry,
your plans not made go into chaos.

islands in your mind feed on the deep blue oceans,
the very liquid of your subconscious drips
into crisp, white, snow.
powdery and fickle, never staying-ever changing.
it is the solid, the liquid, and the air.
it surrounds you, this breath of another.
you are the mirror, of another.

was there ever an original to start with?
your star changed and danced so many times
with benign signals who have fled into nonexistence,
their own private solitude a solace as well as a jail.

corporate magic flees the scene of a death,
doing its best to not make sense in the face
of the almighty master of miracle dropping.
yet nothing can overcome this Master,
it is the Truth itself, which can not be tricked.

everything dissolves and once again you are alone,
perhaps in a ditch. cold and hopeless,
and without memories of what just took place.
there is nothing left for you,
so you apathetically walk back home.
