the ghost is laughing like a fool
w/ his belly full of milk
i pick my scabs like a little child
always waiting to be held
shot glass full of rain
and the sun's in a puddle
where the cigarettes lay
amongst the dust and the rubble

crested beak
02:30
|

|
could i be your counterpart?
across trembling waters
which sweep away
and wash back again
into the arteries of
your generous heart
what did wooden whispers speak?
in throughout their
bark hallways
misted over
and sparkling in eggshell moonlight
twisted around your crested beak

awake too
03:18
|

|
just look up
for once in your life
your strife is alive
but your eyes don't shine
these city lights will never die
yet the sun still punches holes
into the skin of the sky
the moon still moves her tides
to us
on fallen trees we reside
w/ our smoke signals
crawling away
out from lungs
and into gentle decay
we're fresh ink on paper
we clutter together
and awake to the blue

birds could land

|
birds could land
on the pout of your lips
i could break in the
softness of your grip
slip up and drink all
of my days away
trying to make you stay
you've completely disarmed me
so please don't harm me
hidden things
inside of you
riddance stings
and i'm denied you
or am i to share you
with him (who?)
you've completely disarmed me
so please don't harm me

in reflection: a face
03:39
|
|||
|
white streaks down window panes
concrete bricks all in their place
these side walks lined w/ names
and in reflection: a face
come on strong and sweet
in bubbled ink from a pen
bleeding like perspiration
in scribbled odes to now and then
