A moment in time frozen in my mind
a younger you standing at the cusp of summer
Wind in your hair, light in your eyes
that rippling laughter that gave itself away
to me, ...
Beneath two loving arms fleshy dough rose
as we gathered in the kitchen and spoke...
How I long today to hear your voice again,
while those busy hands showed me how
to knead and gather, your heart was full
of say...
Time has taken away your health, today
I wish I could stop the hour glass from sifting
ALS has taken its tole on you, Mary
bit by bit it is taking you away, from those you love
Oh how i wish that you could stay,
for forever and a day...
Frozen in my mind, like you were yesterday !
Squatter pulse rates purvey hoarder rain,
Blood drips, heaving, flipping the veins hole.
Shaping an abyss in your nearest chain,
In the dusk, you can hear raindrops on the tole.
Blood drips, heaving, flipping the veins hole,
You expect a reply as you hear and embrace.
In the dusk, we can hear driblets on the tole,
You sink into the gloom with its tune chase.
You expect a reply as you hear and embrace,
In the water, we will be exposing gaps of refuge.
You sink into the gloom with its tune chase,
In the gaps amid hurried swing and deluge.
In the water, we will be exposing gaps of refuge,
Blue and silver waves echo in the bland brine.
In the gaps amid hurried swing and deluge,
Painful and subtle, disclose an anxious whine.
Blue and silver waves echo in the bland brine,
We can spot underlying stream dysmorphia.
Painful and subtle, disclose an anxious whine,
Under the decent ripples of life lies dyspraxia.
We can spot underlying stream dysmorphia,
Shaping an abyss in your nearest chain.
Under the decent ripples of life lies dyspraxia,
Squatter pulse rates purvey hoarder rain.

Lonely Screams
seen the promising throw away hopes and dreams
witnessed parents loose children heard their lonely screams.
seen a friend give up and quit.
said im out suicide to much guilt and regret.
friends lost families destroyed.
once with income and success now unemployed.
this is what happens to the best in this game.
what ya see in the beginning will never again be the same.
What ya see cannot be unseen.
ya dont leave this life squeeky clean.
morals and dignity go up in smoke
but die even quicker with every poke.
like goin 100 inna 50 with no brakes.
A mess of a tole on everyone around you it takes.
if it dont kill ya you wish you were dead.
regret pain disappointment is what your fed.
loose everything people sick of watching you die.
wont sit around to be a part of your lie.
what once was a party and good clean fun.
was your future being murdered undone.
some of you sayin I don't know what I'm talking about and your straight.
keep testing the devil keep messing wit fate.
few escape this life and find there way.
live each night like its their last day.
get out if ya still got a shot
Because survivors in this life there ain’t really a lot.

I hear you in the music that once was
noted with affection, like a flower linger
that once was;
Close to my remote that song clung to destiny
fate and other things, half strewn
along the way;
Come what may
I will always remember
the song that was playing
the day you danced me in
I hear you in the sound of the waves,
as they crash against the shore and are no more
close to my heart you will always be, my love
fortune played its role, sadness took its tole
but despite the distance,
I will always remember the song they were playing
the day I met you,
the day you danced me in.

Have you ever fought for your life,
Ever begged the demons to let you drop the knife,
Im always looking for a new high of a new drug,
Drinking anything they pour in my cup,
I would say its to escape reality,
But in reality its just me hoping for a fatality,
I know your scared i promise i have been there too,
I luckily made it out like a few,
But most people cant climb outta that hole,
Waiting for it to be covered up not realizing there death has a greater tole,
On the outside i might be smiling,
But on the inside im really dying,
If these thoughts do end up taking my life,
Just know i tried to drop that knife,
But i couldnt bring myself to drop it and walk away,
So here i am on the floor and i bleed as i lay,
Praying to wake up and see that it was all just a dream,
But to me what does life even mean?
I see these people with the happy life then i look at me,
I bet i look happy too but deep down is what you needed to see,
Maybe you could have prevented this and my life wouldnt have been the cost,
But this was just one of the many battles that i lost..
I wasn’t always this cold-hearted,
Judged by all who hate me,
Guess I’m always disregarded,
By those who do not wish to see,
The truth behind the thuggery.
As I walk among the shadows of my weary soul,
While avoiding the harsh cries,
Of the deception and lies,
My fear and hatred takes its tole.
While my fear and hatred takes its tole,
As I walk the road to hell,
Upon my weary soul,
Held together by an ancient spell.
I may not be caring or kind,
But I am smart and cunning,
At least I don’t decline,
Even when I’m not running.
I may not be Prince Charming,
At least I don’t bet,
Least I’m not disarming
When fate has been set.
Run from here in panic,
Demons on your tail.
At your heels, the wolves lick,
Shall you never prevail?
You tried to keep it hidden,
Such lowly secrets chained.
Corruption seeping from within,
You truly have gone insane.
Bow before your defiled idols,
Blood dripping from every crack.
He's made you so suicidal,
I see you've fallen into his trap.
Those eyes, the color of hate,
They followed you your every step.
Laughing till you fall into the grave,
Carefully these sins you've kept...
Keep still. Hear the cries?
Pain he caused those human souls.
What happened to the Widow's mite?
As we walk, we wait for his tole.
The Thief
Sweet,sweet spirit
nectar of the gods, I suckle
at the teat of your promises.
You have cast your spell;
an end to pain, escape from hell.
Alas, you are a false prophet
you've exacted your tole
by destroying the temple
and stealing my soul.
I thought you changed
I thought you was the one
I thought I knew you
I thought we was going to be together for ever
You broke my heart for the last time
You told me you loved me
You tole me we was going to be together for ever
You told me you was not going to leave again
You told me you was here to stay this time
You told me lies
I will never for give you
I will not let you back in my heart again
I will not let you back in my life
I wish I never met you
I wish I could for get you
Your nothing to me
Your the worse thing that ever happen to me
Your my night mare that won't go a way
Your a memory I wish I never had
I wish you would stay gone
I wish you would leave me a lone
I wish you would stop hurting me
I will never stop hating you
DRILL BABY DRILL (Oklahoma RAP)

Two weeks adrillin and my dentist said,

But I still get the feelin it's all crude and sweet!

Never thought there'd be another well head there,
Guess we never know, if we just don't care!
Drill Baby Drill.

Fog Rides like smock from the mountain side
The world is on fire
Heated from the core and cooled by the air
Leaves dry losing their green luster
The night comes around more and stays just as long
The world is changing
Like are body's and minds electrify with lovers touch on are skin
Children will retreat into the safety of the womb
When body's of water begin to harden frozen cold from love gone wrong
River rushes to the ocean singing
'Ocen this will be my last kiss to you
till the love we lost warms it self with the thawing of time
a moment i could Waite for ever for'
she sings on
'for ever is an of ally long time"
her lover replays
The night and cold seen to last forever
even when the sun trys to peek though with warm rays
the land is coated with the thick blanket of death
old man winter brings
So were frozen in this place the flesh of are corn warm and gay
But are souls take on the greater tole of being frozen cold
It is a surprise we live so long when are veins are filled with
ice crystal blood
A little way out of ways
Somehow, some whence be found
With words too little to say
Of rules... I know not bound
A once before to never be after
Remembering to be when never I were
Of all I let be become but laughter
Simply... for life is never sure
Did I let go enough?
Perhaps... if not too much
In respond did I laugh?
And simply myself I’m to touch
Lost and found at the same time
I am never to know
Some self with time left behind
Did oneself took its tole?
Were it out of ways?
Beyond it be bound...
Words too little to say
Am I found...?
on confessional summer streets of city
the heat scums in like a churlish treacle
in back of the five and dime bodies drift by
cotton barely captures their hides of leather
mock they come feasting their eyes the uninspired the unenjoyed
skin like twined roe on inelegant hilltables of humping asphalt
the fullstomached and the barrenous
the stubblegaited and released obese
the adolescent chics swaddled in microshortshorts and sons and
daughters of their own walk on
sidewalks clotted with dirge
dry bubblegum bandages
and weeping condoms caked with sad and
botched hotdog stands and others hold hands
watching over out back of the fiveandime
clouds scuff in like oldtime washerwomen
scrubbing the spanknew parking meters
and all the cops are at the donut shops
notary publics down to the liquorstore
picking up twofours and molls awol from the junior high
and cocksure dudes drabbed in deadlettered sweatpants
cruising spineblown bars for commandment cheaters
in lunging games of catchascatchcan and
here
on Church Street
one young woman smiling arm in arm
with an elder mother set as a seal upon her heart
and all my transepts spires and bells
rejoice
