I miss the change of Autumn leaves
I've moved to the land of the palm
My heart of Autumn often grieves
For those leaves of color and calm
My realm of palms is always green
I miss the change of Autumn leaves
Trees of color that are unseen
Are memories my soul now cleaves
Times of color my heart perceives
When I dressed for the winds of fall
I miss the change of Autumn leaves
A sign that Winter will soon call
My land of palms is filled with heat
And days and nights in shorts and sleaves
The Autumn's chill would be a treat
I miss the change of Autumn leaves

This morning while sucking a morning cig,
I heard a ruffling in the leaves,
And looked to see a cat holding a twig,
With one paw, while the other licked its sleaves.
I looked at it and it looked at me,
And I was like "Hey what the eff are you doing?"
To which the cat responded and peed,
"Lookin' for a spot where I'll be pooing."
"Get lost!" I said to the freakish cat,
"Don't you do that in a box?"
To which he retorted with fodder's splat:
"I guess I'm unorthodox."
The cat was still holding that tiny stick,
That cat must have had some thumbs,
And I said "What, is the stick for a magic trick?"
And then he called me "Human scum."
Still not knowing what was up with the branch,
The creepy cat held with his right paw,
I thought "Send this creepy ass cat to the ranch,"
And then the cat began to look at me with awe.
It looked at me with widened eyes,
So I asked "What are you looking at?"
To which he responded with eyes full-sized:
"Not much."

Reading a book in the rain where the pages get wet
and the colours pouring down the ink reading the words
before they fade away played again on the cassette of your memories and dreams silently.
The sounds fade away transitioning as it breathes like the wind falling down the pages like the ink absorbed by the soil. A touch of water a grasp of paper a crackle sound waves flourish through the pale air as life breathes through the trees flowing side to side
artists drop of water colour bleeding on the canvas you are depicted in.
Flood through the waterscape??

Winter
Days of snow, nights are cold.
Sleeping with someone to hold.
Spring
Days of beauty,flowers in bloom.
Fields of daisies,babies in the womb.
Summer
Days of ice tea,tanning in the sun.
Swimming,kicking a ball just for fun.
Fall
Days of hot chocolate,falling leaves.
Grass turning colors,wearing long sleaves

just one more tortured soul
left to fester in pain.
Loathing existence,
with nothing to gain.
can,t handle the tears,
chooses to bleed instead.
to stop the destruction
the beast must be fed.
so push the scissors in deep,
feel them pierce through the flesh.
Wait for the rush...
then take a deep breath.
The blackness will fade.
i can clean up the mess.
Paint back on my face,
for this world i detest.
Now cover all slashes
wear long sleaves in sun.
Find a new bandage
so the blood doesn't run.
So much preparation
it's almost quite fun.
Just like mr Cobain,
I don't have a gun.
