Newspaper lining
Old soul's old soles had worn holes
Temporary fix


*Interpretation of Raul's "Still Life" photo.  To me the lining of the shoes looked like old newspaper.

A Makeshift Graveyard

Married to a number,
Set aside for posterity.

Marked and laid out in an open grave,
In everlasting humility.

Look and behold as I grow into the earth,
I never asked for and do not want any pity.

Young life, hope, tortured death ,
And yet, I welcomed it all with untaught piety.

I lie in unmarked graves around the deadened land,
I am sorry I never said goodbye.

Makeshift Spaceship

She needs space
She needs more than this
She needs change 
Metomorphasis 
The more I give the more I get
The more I give the more I drift
Out of sight 
out of mind
To explore 
Space and time

I'll see the elastic skies 
strecthing out far and wide
A new place to reside

I'll sail passed the seven seas 
And see the world from the galaxies

It's my own haste escape to float away
a getaway in outer space

Im saving this relationship 
A space cadet with all the space I can get 
In my makeshift spaceship
                                 [realization that space in a relationship means the end]
We can throw it all away
or we can take hold
We can fight and find a way
 or we can let it go
Light years light the way
to a black hole
I'd cry tears for YOU to stay
At least call me home

Im returning burning through the atmosphere
All I wanna do is clear the air
                        
All I need is some air to breath
some water to drink
and some life to eat
I dont need you, you're a luxury 
                                             [space madness]
I tried to belive in you and me and living for eternity but now I see you are my own enemy sending me to death by odyssey and honestly its gonna be the end of me your frienemy its gonna rip the heart out me but silently im gonna break this gravity thats grabbing me im gonna find a remedy to set me free. In my Makeshift Spaceship.

The Makeshift Poem 101

The anchor subside the cure of weigh-in waters,
Flowing in the midst of abstract battles,
To be toughest, you can be..
Singing the sirens of sailing
Finding yourself in the tension of negotiating palpable
Bid adieu dreams and swift moving chimera,
Seeing your flaws and wanderings
At the dang skies,
In the worst alarm,
On dates of run on tick tack,
To be toughest, you can be..
In another makeshift adept world to see..

Mannequins On a Fake Makeshift Trampoline

i never know where to start with you,
so i just choose to walk away and end it
it makes no sense to cause anymore stress,
so instead of confronting i bookend it
my life is a hole in the wall circus with bogus clown paint,
and as a result your life is forced to be the same
we find ourselves trying to balance the "fairness" of it all,
however in the end we are just mannequins on a fake makeshift trampoline

Makeshift Rat Traps On a Deserted Speedway

here is my soul speaking softly
you take it in, and resolution warms the union
we converse like a lazy sunday revisited
we take a trip by becoming invisible 

the trip we take is underwater in thought and contentment
the concoction we make is soothing and rehabilitating
we converse lika a lazy sunday revisited
we take a trip by becoming invisible

here are your elements forming a bond that is truly cationic
i take it in, and the mass confusion permanently evaporates
we converse like a lazy sunday revisited
we take a trip by becoming invisible

the attractions we see are revolving but welcoming
the natural scenes experienced inspres and strengthens the root of our bond
we converse like a lazy sunday revisited
we take a trip by becoming invisible
