Poems and Songs

Until search is back enabled I'm just going to store shit here for awhile.
 
A Fine Time to Find My Condom's Broken
 
I keep a photo of you under my pillow,
it makes me feel safer than I would with a gun.
It's more dangerous.
In case of a break in, I'd whip it out and with a look
the attackers head would blow like in Scanners.

Your parents first mistake was giving you a name,
makes it harder to throw you away later on.
Wish they had.
At least I can say that I've finally seen
what a wookie would look like shaved.

They say the holocaust was bad
well obviously they've never seen you.
Lucky them.
Not sure what the hell you are
but I'm sure I'd go to jail for beastiality.

I think I've found evolution's missing link,
I'd rather keep this information to myself.
Kinked chain there.
Is your family doctors last name Moreau?
Or did you pop out of someones chest?

I wouldn't touch that with a stolen dick,
so someone is running around without one.
Sweet Christ.
Maybe it was the dark, or that last drink
That caused me to somehow think
you were beautiful.
 
Trek
 
They fall.
Slowly, no hurry in their descent.
They parachute in hordes all around.
It's elemental war
and today is D-Day.
Imperfected clumps
of individuality,
they seem to absorb all sound
creating a silence which adds
to their stealthy air attack
on the frozen ground below.
They fall.
It seems a shame
to crush their gathering forces,
leaving treaded earth
reinforcements in my wake.
Unfortunately for them,
they may win this battle,
but by spring
they shall lose the war.
 
Browncage
 
The Irish Spring is trying to tell me something
there's writing of unknown language on its side
the bastard child of letters and numbers
It seems so alien
I'm afraid to open the box
I don't want to be the cause
for the world's enslavement

Out of the bathroom
back in the rec room
things aren't less strange.

The televison is always running movies
they're all starting to run together
Swayze says "Nobody puts baby in the corner"
Except the Blair Witch
She put them all in the corner
Why do I know this ****?
How could it be relevant?

Out of the rec room
back in the bathroom
things are getting strange

The crack in the toilet seat is spreading
I don't want to be the one to get knicked
why does it have to be made of wood?
Everything here is wood.
Wait, why is it not splintering?
It looks shattered like glass
what is in that soap box?

Out of the bathroom
into the rec room
why are things so strange

All the walls here are wood as well
except for the beam near the door
it's covered in ugly tiger-esque carpet
Why is it only there?
What needs to be protected?
It never bothered me before
why do I need to know now?!

Out of the rec room
into the bathroom
Now I'm getting scared

The sink is covered in black stains
Stains not created by me.
I don't even know what they're from.
The soap must be used
Fear I not the forbidden box
The package is destroyed
and all that lays inside is a note

"Out of the bathroom
and into the rec room
THIS is your life"

 
Amber
 
Powerful inferno of fire and light
The people dance, and chant around you
Their merriment
like an encantation
seems to add to your glow
They feed your desire, making you stronger, making you King
Your flames unfurl and stretch, tasting the faces gathered
Your charred, rotting body slowly turning a deep dark red
You spit your stars into the night,
only to have them fade out to to dust,
never joining their bigger brothers above
Time goes by, the people of merriment disappear
and your hunger grows and grows
How could your caregivers let you starve
let you die?
You lose strength, shrink to coals
and ash that radiates your beating heart
slowing as death approaches
Just another dieing star
Fading into a new dawn
 
Anywhere But Here
 
Ground glows with radiated
moonlight driven snow.
That seems to lead you
like forgotten highways of
memories and pastimes of old.
That comforting feeling of
cold air hugging your face,
Seems to embrace you
and carry you away to
a well hidden place.

So wave goodbye and say farewell
to the days that were good enough to cherish
Those who tell you that change is good
are the ones who pretend to face it.

Night seems infinite
but for this moment
it ends here for you to stare.
Gives you the chance to
forget the when and why
and to focus on the where
of which you stand and what you are
and what you're supposed to give.
If only this was my prerogative

Take that chance and face that fear
and stick around till last call.
Maybe life wouldn’t be so bad
if we stopped to absorb it all.
And take yourself away from
the people who drag you down
and take yourself anywhere but here.
 
No Loitering
 
It seems like we've always been here
like all rivers to flow to this place,
parked in our booth at Tim Hortons
Triple-triple for me, double-double for you
always seemed to make a night complete
sitting here at 3AM
When we've all had too much to drink
and trying our best not to repeat
the same stories we've told before.

One more coffee and then we'll leave
how about one last story for the road
I just need some time to rest my knees
before we go back out into the cold.

Remember the painting you bought
at the garage sale down the street
of dogs sitting 'round playing cards?
I don't think the game was poker
it just seems to obvious
Maybe it was Bull****
Imagine how funny it would be
to hear them try and say it
with a mouthful of peanut butter

One more coffee and then we'll leave
just one more joke before we go.
I just need some time to warm back up
I really don't to want to return home.

Did you ever the one about the priest
that walked into a bar that serves
anything from animals to talking lamps.
Then something happens or is said
that results in comedic happenstance
always ends that way
maybe just once I'd like to see
them all ignore each other
or the giraffe and the bartender brawl.

No more coffee, we're cut off for the night
the clerk points to the loitering sign on the wall
Just another Saturday night
staying at Tim Horton's till last call.

Honest Sam's Used Car Emporium

Dusty tattered streamers flap on the left,
an air conditioner rattles till death
Its sound drowned by an fm radio.

Beach Boys lyrics fill the air while
eager patrons stop to stare at
cars with old history instead of new.

Holes covered with putty cement,
stench of pine and lemon scent,
rust hidden behind shiny paint
Honest Sam’s Has A Vehicle For You!

We promise you the cheapest rates
see our flyers for rebates
Don’t worry, that scratch will come out!

We’re here to offer the greatest deals
just come on in and see our steals
free balloons for your kids, seniors too!

Salesmen with slicked back hair
stalk the store's showroom floor for
the next sucker they can dupe

Business is really booming today
must be the new ad on the interstate
the one that promises a “t.v. with sale”

Someone bought the XJ-6
one with no brakes left to fix
the new owner shakes an oily hand
Honest Sam’s: Isurance Is For Fools!

Leave your worries at the door
you’re safe with us , rest assure
the customer is always number one

Ask about our President’s Day Sale
We’ll send you coupons in the mail
Just don’t report us to the B.B.A.

Honest Sam’s: We’ll make a deal
Come on in, get behind the wheel
Don’t worry, that’ll fix with glue.

Homesick Blues


Grid lit fireflies on a hazy night sky.
Even shadows find a way to exist
in the darkest heart of the city.

Do trees reach for salvation or damnation?
At least they’re at peace
with both sides of their being.
While man still tries to build
his way closer to creation.

Goodbye loving care, hello empty stare.
No excuses, only rushes.
To another stop, another transfer,
going nowhere but
to somewhere.

You can try to branch away
but your roots go deep.
Gone from hell to heavan.
But what if maybe, just maybe,
You had it upside down all along.

Are You There?

You were always a fighter
Now your greatest battle is fighting
the restraints that keep you from falling
out of your old wheelchair

In the beginning there were sparks
Thoughts and memories that tied
our faces together in your mind
Now they all seem lost.

Did you notice when grandpa left
When your husband no longer showed
To sit next to your bed?
The idea of his passing
Would only get lost in your head

Hollow sounds mumbled.
a word
a name
a place
struggle crosses your empty face

Staring with confusion
Do you see me
Can you hear me
Do you know me
A ghost to you is all I must be.

It’s New Year’s Eve, and you are passing
A fitting time for a new beginnings
All I see is another year of you gone
Now your body as well as the mind.

We say good-bye to a woman
Who gave us all her love and care
Even in this time of sadness
Our hearts can feel a little lighter

Because this woman
This mother
This lover
This fighter
Had already died six years prior.

The Ruins

The boys looked for wood for the campfire
While the girls drank back more liquor
And their laughter grew higher.

Glow of a lighter, outlined their faces
Usual suspects huddled in the darkness,
Burning sage sails in night’s empty spaces

They’d start all their bonfires
The way their fathers taught them
Back when they were children
Back Before all this boredom

Teepee stacked branches
Atop the twigs and the grasses,
Crumpled dirty magazines
And a loving dose of gasoline

Another Friday night, rebuilding Ruins.
