I’ve got two eyes staring at me, draped in plastic perfume. She’s just talking and talking and my mind walks to you. I crossed wires that way. There are people speaking at me, convinced that […]

Slow roll through the city bumping bluegrass, got three ancient ladies riding my ass. Just pass me, it’s blasting, I’m singing. I’m just taking my time, it’s early and I’m young. I’m not surprised I’m […]

One evening, a moon lit up oceans of snow, revealing a highway where four soles would go. Time piecing tiles for water to fall on. Pictures, picture perfect. I fell right in. Like lemons on […]

Didn’t see myself sleeping once, I was so awake. Maybe it was the coffee. Maybe I just wasn’t watching. Maybe it’s the thinking that leads me to the thought that I’ll ever catch me dreaming. […]

We were wandering in our puddle just left of the middle of America. Old tunes waltzed right out the doors of your ride, in your element around this time that year. People, they were lining […]

I’ve followed you for years, around. And I’d catch up if you’d slow down. We built this thing so it would last and rode together through our whole past. Little leaf left yesterday fell off […]

He’s no genius, enigma, just fix it, he thinks. He says, ‘I think, maybe, they don’t think enough. Maybe, don’t feel enough. Always have, always will was said. Maybe just a little different and there’s […]

I believe the brighter the light, the darker the demons. Man, I’m like a moth. Take me to the evening. There’s always been something about it, been loving that light forever. Deep love without demons […]

My god is a song. Off-notes, letting demons throw down. Working toward my favorite version. My god is a song. Skipped hits, little lies for no reason. Working toward an early version. Sometimes the song […]

Light struts, bringing deep darkness brighter words. Lifetimes listening, but never heard. Who would talk so loud? Why the grand performance? Sap, soft, delicate, dangles from a tree. Sweetness seeping, still or moving. Can’t tell. […]

Way out there, crossing every line, a sun set and every color commenced their rhyme. There wasn’t a feeling of time, like we’d always been there. We don’t know what’s gonna be right, but we […]

Do you know where we left off? Backyard, just left of the neighbors place. Outside, old house, same little table I’m at now, you were gone. You went out flying. Brilliance rides the wind. Bottle […]

Leave us where we left off. Leave from where we started. Steady this ship with wild, selfless wind. Take us where we’re ready. Take, from us, that thinking. Secure this sail with warm, reckless wind. […]

Some time, in the distance, standing still, laughing about all of this. Something, this for instance. Ticking and moving out from under this. Looking back at the present, it seems we’d lost control, we didn’t […]

A little peace and quiet, let the leaves stay. No need to always be blowing them away. They’re leaves, they’re like me, they’ll come back. I gotta write my own gospel. I’ve never understood anything […]

I’m blacking out, I’m buying weird books. I’m floating on pools, I’m giving weird looks. I’m stacking up pounds, I’m shrinking like dreams. I’m tumbling inside, though balanced I seem. Tried to book a room, […]

Every morning, clumsy hands spilling coffee on my pants. Sound of music, cracking eggs. Differ calls, I never beg. Out the window, simmered light. Watching day give up the fight. Weekday evening, jump on bed. […]

Boy, where you been? Our world’s been spinnin’ without you. Boy, where you been? You know, I’ve been worried about you. Boy, where’s your head? You know, I’ve been dreamin’ about you. Boy, where’s your […]

Storyteller, find your voice, turn these pages to a choice. They’re stuck in hell without a sail, so please return and spill your tale. Life contestant, choose a door. Your two options: change or more. […]

Friendly, frightened, rocket ship gliding past the sand. Little silhouette of me sinking in my hand. Righteous raindrops find themselves, take off to the sky. Spinning pirouettes and webs, dripping as they climb. Together at […]

Bold, fragile and empty. Plastic, porcelain clowns. They cover up nothing with makeup and gowns. Shouts startle what’s calming. Molded, money and ties. Selling night nothing but self-serving lies. Loud said enough, it’ll say some […]

He beats himself up too much, but he’s tough and he doesn’t know how to punch. Walks straight lines outside, inside his mind they’re circles. Inside’s all wound up, circles. Inside walking circles. Roundabout back […]

You begin, you only listen. You begin, you haven’t missed it. You begin, you’ll be ok. Without expectations, you won’t go astray. You be young, you have some fun now. You be young, you have […]

Strutting ‘round this town of mind. Swimming down a street. Drowning in an easy smile, the happiness I see. Hanging up a frame of mind Looking down at me. Staring into distant eyes, blinking suddenly. […]

Half hundred half read books smoking on his floor. Staring, wondering how they would have ended. Doesn’t finish anything. He kicked his wheel, built it up and she wrecked it. Make way for this gem. […]

Letting go of life’s handles, she lights darkness a candle. Crawling into bed, love, brighter shades of blues, dreaming in her head. Fine, art, softly painted side. Love, floating like she’s always been there, like […]

Seventy finger table, wide eyed spark. Wait for night to smile, and then I cut the cards. Living, breathing, cold hands, fixing futures. Always figured they knew what they were doing. Always figured they’d figure […]

Life on a burner boils over, steaming a wooden spoon. Running late in a snow globe, going nowhere, right now, soon. Face in a fireplace, laughing at myths as they freeze. Things we once believed. […]

Leon’s singing on shining. Nina sprinkles soul while I’m gliding by my oven, the way she’s been doing it for years. Scratching through that stereo. So I sing back, again. Let you find your freedom. […]
