take alternatives

the hierophant, the backwards fool, and the emperor

all find justice

together, but just between us

it looks good, for a thin surface

with the image comes its business

no exits on the road to nowhere

not recommended as a starting place

without a stout constitution

only the end of the line

gives the clearest look back

demands of a one-male-review

show-the-dark-parts

the past becomes nothing to cling to

the day he started wearing purple

if the shoes don't fit

shouldn't walk on the broken glass

enhance your ability to dance through it

but don't cut your own toes off

i am my own biggest

challenge to win, opportunity

willing to take alternatives

and biases confirmed

be a student and learn it

earn it

go through more than the motions

high-pressure composer

over the next-day trophies

take one giant, confrontational step back

from people who help me

see the stars and read my ego

open is as open does

sometimes you get dirty

doing the work to get clean

take out the garbage daily

if change is the only constant

everything moves something else

everything moves me

with defensiveness and magnetism

one hell of a shellfish rising

page of cups crushed

within the wheels of fortune

turn the virgin's energy into a berth

when balancing the emotionally extreme

taking his own

seeds through to harvest

grown to be cultivated again

encouraging the vegetation and the bloom

to the greatest potential

only to be ended in an instance

eyes cut from the vine

the brilliance of one man's wishing star

is another's tower moment
