Ingrained Cards and Sloughed Commuters

She walked in beauty. I ran into the sun.

Oh the modern Don Juan.

Insolent marks of beasts, onto spirits whom don’t weep.

Why the fall of men are fangs, and smiling teeth;

dawning honey bees sorely churn.

Great Don Juan does the devil’s work;

ass caps and windows smash, a parody of rebellion

Clashes with domestication and conditioned masterbation

Yet taste for high class is far from alien

As it drips into our mouth; thickening our cranium

Demanding a faucet from forces orwellian

Our academic hellions oh sweet Julia Don’s

Fitting the natural perverted nature of Juans song.

Why have a hero when you have a clay mold;

A pussy of a man or a pet to scold.

These hedgehog’s and Hornets; are loving opponents.

It’s never a dilemma to be stung to death

Since there's venom in tragedy to be used next

Oh fabric of mind to be knitted into breath;

it’s frayed ends whither in our chest.

While the last remnants of god unrelent.

Windows to the soul reveal a vacant tent

Well widowed to the freedom of old longing.

These natural belongings are we destined for destruction

This parody of overman has finished construction

Storming eyes, my arms yield weep

A perfect angel and a sniveling creep

Kisses break bricks in our minds

Yet my past puts me six feet deep

Kill me my love, lay waste to a miserable existence

Don’t let my hope create resistance

I need your assistance and not your permission

For without you a demon comes out of remission.

Kill me before the darkness eclipses

There is no hope, just a brain scar and not enough soap

A monster in a jar, and the innocent dream to elope.

These constant flashbacks form around my neck like rope

This desperate chokehold, this gaping pain.

I lost more than innocence, whats left’s not sane.

This decadence is a secular love for my brain to be everywhere

Blown out against the wall and mixed with my hair

All along realizing nothing is there

For I am only my demon, a thick cloud of smoke

Suffocating and sedating with a blanketing cloak

A reverse nirvana, oceans of thought filled with piranhas

All duct taped together with a little marajuana

These vices take hold of great despair

Parading them around as a throne which snares

Each dream caught but not created

Inner dialogue torn apart, personality segregated

Each moment elated spent conflated

chasing after godrays

running from season changes

Finding not a person and barely traces

How can I only see brick walls in my thoughts cascaded around inkblots

I dream of my darling and my deep well in hell, I see Sunspots with a rotting smell

I feel the pain in the ass I was when I was a kid or how ill deny a existence before,

My freshman kiss

How lovely she broke my heart that night, a hopeless romantic bought her flowers

As within the hours after she left she told me shes fucked her friend for a while

Also hes the best, yet despite my cracked knuckle, ill say less its nothing like

The pain before

Denying your memories a memoir at best. walked egg shells and looney

My personal sanitarium; a brain out of a cuckoos nest

True desire, suited skin and hardluck of desired kin

This is blasphemy to myself; past women of exotic sin

Due me diligence of rejoice cry within natural choice

Humanity tolerant as suppressed promised of angels while

Lost men caress

True wickedness of loss; the hatred grows like moss

Ive given up on addictions for these afflictions

Show wit to my empathy let a soul play a symphony

And be transfixed into a better riddle to be

Ive been lost shrouding in avoidable disease

God has shown me fairies whilst on my knees

Ive set untrained sacrifices replace money trees

Yet this land that separates these sea’s

The old new world; emperor behind the scenes

Shall give me wisdom and hypnosis

As mad kings decree

A blood moon of millenia commenced on the righteous night of november

Mighty fall before and the clever find remnants of forever

May the moon be bathed in blood and the mighty endeavor

The wicked be given the chance to be purified or hung like leather

Old fashioned solutions to one's individual constitution

Passions for values and the cascading of hues

A truce for news and the exodus of thought nooses

These constant abuses forming truth to be elusive

Bastardization of brother and the meat grinder friend

Burning our web of connections calling them loose ends

Might we council our fellow man not to be entrenched in these trends

not retrace our steps to find our soul again, yet instead

Find the love instead of the damned, push our fellow wolf

To befriend the lamb

Golden locks and ocean eyes

Bold motifs of forgotten times

Take my lips and bite my cheeks

I feel fusion in our intimacy

A romantic name, which understands pain

And the embrace of a higher plane

See me well see me trained

a small dog to a golden flame

Know what not of my plighted battles

When I shake my chest rattles

A heart beat of a cattle

Shepherds and snow leopards

Heard only of the meek which

Propulsion into weak itches

destruction or craniul leaks,

Not for my focus lets not speak

Of all history before my lips hit your cheek

Darlings of the past, your constant reminders make me laugh

These constant memories of your sass, contrasted with a perfect ass

I do not mean to be conveyed as crass but salvador dolly said he was

Drugs, these cravings these strong feelings, of long forgotten hugs

And the crack den of refined love, only shows me more proof

Your an artist seedling and know I will always be your biggest fan before the worlds kneeling

The shadow of the earth eclipsing the moon

Let this long phase be a breaking cocoon

Daylight and lost dunes, may they harvest

Orcas on harpoons for these killer whales

And their goons play a cultureless tunes

As us fireflies make up for being shadowed by our tomb

Happiness Ive found it, a whispering light in the darkness

A rarity amongst the cosmos and holy shit is it free

A red hue and a pleasant light crescent what a marvel to be

One day a home for those that hold the keys

The keys to our system to be before my next gander at this eclipse

We have a thousand years before reunion how Ill miss this grand reminder

That everything holds union and how everyone wants to be kissed

How much the tides will be missed within the abyss.

So for now on Ill write, I’ll do my best to research all night

Ill chip away at this, and Ill chip away at that. I promise

my dirty work to clean up all nefarious acts

I want to declare my independence

Breath golden light through penance

Samsara smite me down in silence

immaterial beyond psychic violence

I won’t die again, there's no loose ends

Let me make my mark for our final dance

I will feed the world given the chance
