you go on a date and keep on telling her
"I'm a bad boy."
she smiles a smile that says
your a child in a war with a red toy boat
and she as already done a piece on sign language
on dead animals

you make love while you wear leather
then she watches you fight some high school kids
"I'm a bad boy." is the only thing you say to her
and you say it often
she tells jokes about snow globes at the gallery
she works at
can you even believe that Ted Danison wasn't shot yet.

You defecate in your pants in a way that makes sense to only you
you meet a person in a two dimensional plane
the person says
"if your not dying or having sex, then your lying." You laugh
and develop a fast food commercial that humans like so much
that they sing it in dogs ears
your walking down the street and you see a person
singing to there dog
you take the dog and suspend it exactly between
the distant of the earth and sun
using the resurrected organs of everyman who as
died in war and women who has died in giving birth
it's cliché you know but you try to win

Thw sun told the king of all kings
when he was in an orgy
the he was still alone

and the beat poet
took down his black shoes
when he saw the mad man
talk to the weather man

the painter, painted there last sunset
when he watched a child
laughing at an animal defecating

my grandfather once said
"That you can answer everything
with a clicha, so have sex."
and that it a true story

shoes

2007-04-07T11:25:00.000-07:00

you watch coffee drip
while saying the word lesbian
over and over again
while wearing red
you think about moving
to Buffalo.

the exact replica of what
Reebok shoes could have been

You have things and you move them
and it is your chose of where to move them

but these actions do not go beyond the idea
of the thing

you don't think you communicate anything knew about the thing
just something different
it's a sad day for you one of fear but deep down perhaps truth

you dream of changing the thing
but you don't think that you will
and that will be part of your life
and you will try your best to something, like
still do it

You stand in your heat controlled house
your shoes on fire
and microwave a metal glass of water which as no nickname
you come to the realization that humor
is the only humor that exists
you buy 5 cakes
you burn pornography inhaling the smoke

"Easy metaphor." Your mom says
while stepping out of her labratory
"I'll bring it to a science, two dimensional
orgaism, perpetual laughter."

She then tells you some bullshit
about light and darkness

you step out of the house and exhale the smoke in a
childs face and tell a joke.

2007-03-21T18:19:00.000-07:00

You do something and it's complex and simple
and it can't be explained
and everyone that ever existed likes it.

did you notice how i spelled that one word* acutally it doesn't look that wrong.

2007-03-21T18:11:00.000-07:00

"Let's just dance!"
You say in wonderment to Pete
like all the country music video's were just theological
codes condensed into a single synapse
for the nerdy kid in the pg movies
where he learns that he has super powers
and he understands them in the same second
and like the bully whose mouth falls wide open,

Pete says "Yes, I will dance," to you
and like the pretty girl who always phsicolgically*
had a crush on the nerdy kid
because of his unconditional kindness

Pete smiles and you both know that its kind of a joke
but you slow dance in a parking lot
and you both think how not make a sequal

2007-03-20T13:59:00.001-07:00

“Don’t you believe!” you declare to your death row cell mates
they don’t answer
at first they responded to your truths by saying bad things to you
then they hurt you
you continued you were just being honest
they raped you
the things is you can time travel
and before the night of each one of your cell mates execution
you take them to the beginning of time
“Fuck I’m sorry I raped you,” they all say sincerely
after this event they naturally invite your to there execution
which certainly surprises the guards your not very popular in the prison
NOT DONE

civil war poetry

2007-03-20T13:48:00.000-07:00

You fucking charge!
and you think to yourself why I’m I swearing
would god swear? Probably not
you think as your running towards your death
out of the corner of your eye you see man yelling, bleeding and crying
is swearing the end or beginning of language
do poor people create swear words or rich?
you hold your surf board as best you can forward
as you crash in to enemy lines in the last civil war battle
yelling out every swear word that wasn’t invented into there faces

dry hupping #7

2007-03-03T18:50:00.000-08:00

Your done painting birds that cannot fly
with your blood, your bad blood.
You show pictures of yourself thinking about yourself
to your guru
"I'm I lying or being "really" fucking real?" You say
"Love love, love." The Guru murmurs and flies away.

You go to a middle school dance and sit in the middle of the floor
trying to understand what ambiguity is
if you can just understand things that you can understand
the kids ae either all dry hupping or crying
you call a random dentist!

AT THE LIBRARY

2006-12-28T19:25:00.000-08:00

You’r a mover, you move!
“I move my body, which is under my control!”
the man without legs demends that you say this to him
the man without legs believes that he must face the truth at all times.
The man without legs could call you Pete
but water colors haven’t changed the effects of elbow commercails in the 1970’s
“I mean how many LL bean sweaters need to vote democrat for me to keep under 30 years old for ever?”
The man without legs calls you Peter.
You and the man without legs believe in an absoulte honest friendship
But it just goes in circles
You continue to anylize the first thing you ever said to each other
“hello”
It’s comforting you both figure that if you master just a small element of reality
Then it will shine a light on the rest of eternity.
“We need to go forwards” you say to him at times
the man without legs yells at you
“You know how many deaths there as been on this planet! Science can only takes us so far. We need the strength to not clone a person…(the man without legs pauses he always’s does at this point) but to understand them.”
You draw circles together
and go to elemantary schools where you tell them that they are sqaures
For five hours a day the man without legs asks you
“Why did you say hello?”
For five hours you think and say reasons until you both cry holding each other
Demanding that god arrive now
As your crying you think about how you won’t be coming back to this house ever again
Your going to center of the earth to I DON'T HAVE ENOUGH TIME TO FINSH THIS I'M AT THE LIBARAY WILL COME BACK BUT NEED TO SAVE IT, SO FUCKING WEIRD, RIGHT, RIGHT?

Pizza

2006-12-03T12:59:00.000-08:00

You have gotten a mask and are prone to wear while you laugh under it while looking at people. “Just kidding you say, this is a mask, mask are used as metaphor to give and take, would you like to get some pizza.” They always do and you take them to the highest restaurant in town and order a slice of pizza.
“Lets not do cocaine and just make love.” you suggest they agree.

“Do angel’s fuck?”
Your grandchild asks you
Your old and your going to die
But it’s going to be awesome
You don’t know what that means yet but that’s what you keep telling people
“It’s going to be awesome.”
You’re grandchild is 7 so you don’t know if this is sarcastic or a misplaced genuine question
You have been on a row boat alone for three days now
and this is the only word he has said to you
you go back home and you photo copy all the scars on your body
and give them to your grandchild
he says “Capitalism, right Grampa?”
“Only watch pornography if don’t like pop music,” you say
As you allow him to choke you to death while you misspell words on his forehead
What are the words? The angles asked
“Second place” you say making eye contact with them

thank you

2006-11-30T15:45:00.000-08:00

You buy a dog
You once loved a person enough that you reasoned that
that was what love was
and now you don’t love that person in the same way
you give the dog a name

nothing is something

2006-11-30T15:37:00.000-08:00

You get a flat top hair cut, because you can
You afraid of time or want to be
You want it to haunt you, so when you wink children will know there children
But not in a Jimmy Stewart why but in a way that Jimmy Stewart knows his Jimmy Stewart and then is going to fight himself but settles for a tie with a far off firework
You meet Jimmy Stewart ghost and he tells you that his the one who tells kids that Santa Claus doesn’t exist in there dreams.
That’s to easy you say
He tells you that there is more strangers then people you know
You and Jimmy Stewart give you grandmother a haircut
And watch the best movie ever in a second.

No said yes
Yes said no
There is only love!

ice cream

2006-11-14T18:02:00.000-08:00

Ate enough ice cream to make me sick
then I ate some more it was so good to eat that ice cream
no
it wasn’t it made me sick!
When I was sick I didn’t feel good
I wish I had not eaten that ice cream

poem about family

2006-11-09T14:37:00.000-08:00

You find the most boring person in the world
You tell them all your hopes and dreams
There is a knew kind of bath on the market
its perfect for the united states champion of checkers
you bring the most boring person in the world there
and you watch the checkers champion slowly form a smile
while in the bath
on the giant TV that over looks the thousands of people who
are watching this event
this is what it’s like to have a cousin who as never
dry humped anybody, and
won’t leave the town they born in.

What if?

2006-10-27T14:31:00.000-07:00

Water is the best

2006-10-27T14:29:00.000-07:00

Water is the best!

The cat moves
And you watch it move
Then the cat moves again
And you watch it
Is this why Jerry Lewis is afraid of the dark?

Everything

2006-10-27T14:25:00.000-07:00

You want to be real?
Sex
You want to be it?
Death
You want to be because?
Silence
You want to be you?
Eternity
You want…

diving

2006-10-27T14:14:00.001-07:00

Sit down and look around.
There is a table and there are chairs
The chairs are padded well and
look very comfortable.
They have very good proportion to the table.

Dive of a diving board
And name all you girlfriends or boyfriends
If you hit
the water
before
Naming
all of them.
Make a pyramid
with all the floational
devices
Go in them and know that you wouldn’t eat ice cream in there if you could.

chairs

2006-10-27T14:14:00.000-07:00

Sit down and look around.
There is a table and there are chairs
The chairs are padded well and
look very comfortable.
They have very good proportion to the table.

2006-10-27T14:12:00.000-07:00

Darkness talked to light once.
It forged an umbrella and under this umbrella clich’a had orgies.
Truth looked from the outside alone.
Truth would get drunk and have sex with sarcasm. Clicha would get drunk and have sex with silence.
And hate would record it and masturbate to it.
And fear would artificially incimnate
clich'a.
Who gave birth to red roses.

Trip

2006-10-27T14:11:00.000-07:00

It’s a trip for the best and they were in a tent. They weighed over 750 pounds together but still looked good.
“The wind is like the moon and the moon is like the wind. The lover said to the lover.” Ted said
“Do you guy’s listen to AM radio?” Tommy said, it was the first words he said all trip
“Fuck the radio I have 237 channels.” J said.
They woke up at 6. Ted sleep till two in the after noon. Tommy and J went fishing and got three fish.
By the time Ted got up the fish were almost ready to eat.
They all drove back to town the next day, but stopped to buy supplies for the kidnapping.

Lindsey

2006-10-27T14:10:00.000-07:00

I went to my friend Lindsay’s house her father was dying. Lindsey always asked me if I could bake her a cake. I thought this was kind of stupid. So I told her,
“I don’t have any icing to put on it.”
She went to the store and bought icing and I just break danced while she ate the icing with her fingers. Her mother came home and we helped her put up the American flag.
There were ant’s near the flag pole and Lindsay’s mother asked me to name one.
I said Charley, the father’s name.
Lindsey’s mother bought four more cans of icing they ate them with a fork and smiled watching me break dance all day long.

France

2006-10-27T14:09:00.000-07:00

One for love
Two for putting weight’s on her and jumping over a fence.

Don’t sleep for 6 days.
Call up everyone you ever knew in high school.
On the seventh day sign up to be a mascot for a college you don’t attend, don’t get chosen but root for them either way when you can use the field.
Pretend you’re an apostle while rooting and let it all out.
Have your Mom pick you up in front of the stadium right before practice so that the entire team can see you.
Sing a song to your Mom as she drives you home that makes her cry so that she pulls over on the side of the road.
While she’s crying go get scolding hot coffee and pour it over your foot. Do this the entire season till you foot is deformed.
Kick field goals with the deformed foot. Don’t know what it means to do it, but know it does mean something and when you black out know your in some way closer to it.

superhero's love!

2006-09-08T12:38:00.000-07:00

you have seen it all there is no question about that
your back cries and you know that it's wonderful and you know it's not

you have done it all
really, you have
you have the scars and the memories

you rise up to the sky and make love to air
you invent a knew kind of pizza
your not amazed by anything these days
"Love?" the president says,
"What about love?"
"it's just an exstention of things." You say alittle worried
"I don't believe you, no one does."
"i'm surrounded by it." you cough
"No it's differnt once your actually in love."

there right you have never been in love
your not good at that kind of thing

so you go to a bar with flowers and a list of accomplishments
being both, lawyer, judge and jury that kind of stuff
you place it on the bar
nothing happens
you develop a knew kind of science in your mind
nothing happens
someone says hello to you
you ask them for help
and they sit next to you

shoting yourself in your head for joy

2006-09-08T12:28:00.000-07:00

you haven't felt alive in a long time and you want to change that
so you go on a life boat with a bunch of people who want to change also
awesome.

people like kindness, you know that
there are alot of actions and alot of people, you know that

"I'm a good person." You stand up and say it like a dog that realizes there a dog
"yes." Everyone in the life boat says with a smile
"everyone wants to be liked." You holler
"Yes." Everyone yells with glee
you pause and think, now how do you put this together
"so lets be nice to people!"
everyone cheers
you all have figured it all out
everyone on the life boat cries it's over you can be happy now
but you start thinking
that one way is different then another way
and what is the right way?
"were still lost." you yell while passing out smiling
the last image you see is the gun being passed around
Russian Roullet, got to feel alive
got to achive things step by step.

courage vs kindess

2006-09-08T12:18:00.001-07:00

there is an old house that everyone said is haunted
so you go there because you want to be liked
and isn't courage one of themost importatn things these days?
I mean kindness, sure but courage?
how many doors can you go thorugh with kindness alone?

So you go to teh house and invite everyone on the front lawn to watch you courage
to see if you can make it throught the night
you don't make it through the night, you don't make it long
your scared of everything
your ashmed of this and you lite yourself on fire
you run out of the house and the peolpe put the fire out

in the hospital the nurses give you alot of pudding
and some of the people that were there at the haunted house come and visit you
it's awkward and they think your confused
but your touched by there presence
and you can't help thinking that

maybe you will start working on this kindness thing
you give them some of your pudding
at least you know the same words as people

THE MEANING OF ALL OF EXISTENCE!

2006-08-17T12:33:00.000-07:00

“What’s the point?” You say to yourself in an awesome way.
Like you could have a 5 o’clock shadow, but you know this, so you have a 5 o’clock shadow!
You still life in your mother’s house
You make balls in the basement made from your own hair and you put them in the ocean this makes sense to you
You have never seen a trumpet in your life
There is a perpetual laugh track in the house made from animals
The animals only see in black and white
“I need to change.” You say to yourself
“Let’s dance!” You say to yourself
You invite Satan and God into your mind
And they dance away.
But things don’t change.
You learn to fly while on fire.
You seduce the entire concept of sex.
You invent a knew kind of water
You fall in love with the ghost of your self
A happy blind cute multicultural child falls down and gets up an smiles
“Isn’t trying great!” Nothing works
You have had it, you decide to turn into a pure ray of light and exist as gods dreams reversed into a meaning that was created by the beginning of the universes love
But before you do this you go to your mom work
She works at an elementary school cafeteria.
“Everything seems the same, what can I do mom, what’s the point?”
She makes a mayonnaise sandwich
“I don’t know.”
The sounds good enough, you eat the mayonnaise sandwich and decide to get a flat top.

apple juice

2006-04-19T11:54:00.000-07:00

You beat the shit out of a kid
A little kid
The kid has cartoons on his shirt
Just a good old 1800 beating
There is snot everywhere
Its disgusting
There was nothing on tv that night
And you didn’t just want to sit in your room and cry
So you beat this kid, while saying the names of celebrates
You ask him if he thinks you’re happy?
“Maybe”
“Maybe, you’re a kid be honest, yes or no?”
“maybe”
You pull out a gun
“There is no maybe in this world; you see those building there mine.”
It’s true you own every building in the city
And have a tv in each room
The kids begin to open his mouth
And it’s strikes you have been living the wrong life
There are no, yes’s and no’s just maybe’s
you becomes a game show hosts and grave digger
and the kid becomes a priest and drunk clown
you watch the ocean on TV

poltics of rainbow

2006-04-18T11:53:00.000-07:00

I was in this rainbow inviting friends up in the sky. It’s what I do. Tooka!
Wonder Bread is making a knew religion and it’s dangerous but in a happy way, isn’t that what everybody wants. To tell your lover that you are still alive as you float into awesomeness! I mean how long can you go until you beat the shit out of your own self. Not long and that’s a good thing.
I don’t believe that were in a rainbow.” People said to me.
“Yes we are.
Those middle schooler’s they want to it all, they have heard all the stories. Your first love is played against all the idea of love from every human before. I just wore a mask and told people that my name was Conrad and that I was cool, the dance was fun.
Anyway there I am in the rainbow still asking people to come up.
“come up?”
“are you crazy?”
What a question!
I raised my eyes then my head, civil war soldiers understanding number musicals.
I looked at everybody who up in the rainbow they all have a smile that is building, like a sand castle.
I want to hit everybody in there, is this foolish that were in a rainbow, people have to drive cars people have to clean things and where in a rainbow?
But the smiles keep coming like a sandcastle that is made out of grains of a rock that lead the parade.
I don’t know if to say it, it sound mighty cliché.
But I'm in a rainbow and I believe in it.
I can say the word love and believe in it, I can believe in anything. I can believe that I can believe in anything.
So the ocean comes in and hit’s all the proper old rusty silver ware making melodic sounds.
“Yes!” I answer.
Your friends come and it’s awesome!

another things about moms

2006-04-03T16:59:00.000-07:00

You can’t help but move awesomely it’s what you do
The post man gives a end of the commercial cereal face
Your neighbors give you money
You can’t help wondering what is more productive thinking or actions
When is it time to do anything?
You think has you land from the sky scarper
You always like the predator animals best
They always seemed to have to concentrate more
But mom’s get along better with there children
so you start recording absolutely everything
and keep in mind unborn babies when you strip
for books

just found this went I went to the screen

optimism and fear

2006-03-24T12:22:00.000-08:00

Went to the market it was well
lite
"Your market is well lite." I told the manager
The manager just stood there looking me in the eye
"You look people in the eye well." I almost sang
"Yes, I do. I haven't trained for it, do you believe me?" He almost sang
He laughed
"Why are you laughing?"
"I liked to laugh."
"will you teach me things I can teach you things."
"YES" We said at the same time.
Then yes flew into the air and started laughing
was it mocking us?
is optimism just a by product of fear?
we decided to pay it no mind.
We closed up the shop and bought
a million nails.

and everyone of them has a heart

Miles Davis in 2006

2006-02-08T11:55:00.000-08:00

We are children of the night
I don’t like game shows
Let me watch you do yoga for 3 hours
While I come up with different ways of tying my shoe
They say love is gold well silver will get you back home
Take my cowboy hat and do what you want with it
I’m killing the real killers these days
And its in people minds
I need to shrink to a piece of dust then enter through the ear
To shrink I must sell everything I got by midnight
sailing to distant lands
on computers made from left over 1920 dogs toys
can you hear me or
is there something in your ear?
if so
forget the bright lights and talk softly about
what once was by
fire
burning with the dreams of tomorrow’s dreams
I’ll be gently
I’m scared also
But first lets just sleep

love song

2006-02-08T11:44:00.000-08:00

Dynomite nights
Fighting for nothing
O my god
It was like we shared a common mind
When you ordered that pizza it was so funny
It felt like honey
Hay you want to fly
No one can fly
And everyone dies
We knew that on those nights
But we knew nothing also
Killing the killers
Flying high
I don’t know my mom
but I knew you those nights
it felt right
It just felt awesome you were my best friend
We made prank calls to the future
And the dial tone was a song to the past

making love to our memories
making love to our memories
making love to our memories

killing things

2006-02-07T11:09:00.000-08:00

Called up the doctor
He said I was in trouble
“big trouble.”
“like death” I asked
“am not saying, go have fun and don’t die”
I was puzzled by this, but kept on watching tv
Nothing seemed fun anymore
So I turned to drugs and sex
It takes more energy then I thought it would
When that ran out
I sat in the tundra
Just having diarrhea and smoking cigarettes
I kept on thinking about the doctor
So I became a priest
And the doctor came to my booth in confessions
“I’m a sinner” he sang
“Why?” I asked
I could tell this man was a genius
“Because I believe in too much to the point that I don’t believe in anything”
“Take you time we can’t figure out everything.” I said
“can I just figure out one thing?”
“Its hard, but I will join you” I said
Now we just dance on ant farms

love poem

2006-02-06T14:01:00.000-08:00

The sunset looked beautiful
like your heart

stalker for a stalker

2006-02-06T13:50:00.000-08:00

I was going too fast
But didn’t want to stop yet
I got a thirst for danger
All the angles said I should stop
I told them sing your song and I will sing mine
Through a gun on the street just to change my thought process
It was going to be a hard day
But it wasn’t the first one I had
Took all the diamonds from my face and looked for a good deal
Light said it would help, but it needed my love
We made love on darkness and I called the metaphors bluff
Listen here, to the ones in the waiting rooms
“You can’t go undefeated, but you can choose who you fight!”
Then a bunch of beasts ate me while I tranformed from
an F to a A+
fuck it's only a game when there is rules
right womb?

I’ll I can think about is the word
Tony
Said four times in a row on a boat
Tony
Tony
Tony
Tony
It’s not a joke
It’s a moment connected to others leading to death
Tony is the realist thing I have
Thank you Tony, I know you fight against death for me and others
Tony, I love it with a love that as little fear
Tony we will be lovers for life
Tony I sing for it becuse we can't sing for love and death today
just Tony at that will be fine today
Tony
I don't know if you hide me or free me
said slowly naked on boat heading towards a wall
Tony
Tony
Tony
Tony
I love it
Bill Clinton with the Dalai Lama and a pound of american cheese asking for direction to a whore house from Jesus
Bam
Bam
Bam
stay free warriors!

Die by animal

2006-02-06T12:55:00.000-08:00

We could have killed each other today
but we did not!
We chose life
can you believe the courage?

"You will have to deal with more pain."
our moms said

Yes, its true
we're just waiting for
“What’s up?” to be golden
And to be comfortable with
not being able to fly
so be ok.

poem about something good

but something good happened
and they got up

a poem about some kind of god

2006-02-01T10:50:00.000-08:00

When sad everyone I know
tries
to find some kind of god
it's the best joke there is
and the punch line ends when they
laugh for real

I think

2006-01-31T10:35:00.000-08:00

We covered the Beatles album so good!
Then drank some juice
Tony kept on saying shouldn’t we go on tour and
We kept on telling him that were not the Beatles
“that’s not really the point” he said
“then what is the point.
“that were the Beatles”
This is what it feels like to get mooned in the 1980’s

slam poet

2006-01-18T17:52:00.000-08:00

they all started crying wearing
brutally bright color
it was scary
like an airplane
flying
over a home with a kid
killing himself
How many letters does Tom Hanks get
these days
and how many letters does Santa Claus get?
The slam poet yelled into his retired
pink shoe

holding

2006-01-18T17:19:00.000-08:00

we made love in a swamp
all these animals got better at chess
and Tony kept on saying at least I am Tony
which was true
everybody wants to be held

It’s a waste of time

rock song

2006-01-10T13:08:00.000-08:00

We all can’t change the world
But we can all rock!
So lets all rock so hard
That we don’t have time to have badness
Lets rock so hard
That we don’t have time to have sadness
Lets rock for all the dead Egyptians
Lets for all the future dead presidents
Lets rock because were all in love
Lets just fucking rock!

killing for freedom

2006-01-09T08:48:00.000-08:00

This kid tried to kill me
kids don't generally do that there taught not to.
But this kid really tried to kill me
like putting a knife through someones back
is what the four year old kid did.
But he came at a strange angle and the knife didn't enter
my body.
I was shocked at first.
I quit the radio DJ gig this kid action's made more sense then talking.
I didn't tell anyone just quinked as i watched him grow up.
He had some hard times has some or most do
I kept on telling him through the years of that day when he tried to kill me
that he can do anything.
He wakes up at 7:00 and goes to work and as a hard time talking about how he is doing
i don't forget though
there was a day long ago when he tired to kill me
and i won't let him or me forget it
the desert is large and he knows that
thank god for pictures, i think.

andre dawson hits a double

2006-01-09T08:43:00.000-08:00

just that itch and you can't do much about
besides hide behind it
or do something fucking awesome

felt markers

It was big an easy

I will call an alien an alien to its face

if love is real
why is it soooo real?

popcorn

2005-12-21T18:03:00.000-08:00

"you make popcorn and wait for the changing of the globe.”
you have practiced this and you say it in a chipper light tone
eyes wide open not scary you hope
your date does not understand.
“Just watch and wait.”
nothing happens
“Nothing happened” your date says.
“Yes but what if it did?”
not knowing what this means scared of the next moment
has you have been scared of every moment before it
your friend Scott is going to jump of the roof and yell
“Everything!”
you both hope he doesn’t break anything but it would make a good scar you both agree
you take a breathe knowing that its going to be one followed by another one
your proud of that and her name is Suzan,
a good moment you figure as you suck in deep
maybe she has simlar feelings
maybe you can at least share them
you will ask her that
Scott jumps from the roof scared looking at your face
you smile
proud today at least of where the demons have brought you today
Scott yells “Everything!”
maybe she is in love with you already.

15 year olds

2005-12-14T12:52:00.000-08:00

each president has eaten at MacDonalds a 15 year old said
the bad guys know it also
when they make smily faces turned up side down on bad things
the country singer talks to
the journal of the 15 year old when there scared of the faces
he tells them to be strong to keep putting things in things
and to forget all the roads
the bad guys stood up in the back of the room
because there in the room there always in the room arn't they?
and said "you have to many brains in brains to keep going young 15 year old
and has for you country singer well the past can't be caughten up with
sad faces, we will sell you a bleeding copy machine if you know what I meen?"
the 15 year olds like the country singer
but the birthday party was for people who liked ties in races

meat on chalkboard

2005-12-14T12:29:00.000-08:00

that clocks actually a bomb
tied up in a pop song beliefs
so we uncovered guitar solos
and tried out jeans that are
attracted to mail men
who have a little over a five o'clock shadow
it brought us back to the stadium show
you can see thousands dancing together
dick clark wearing his old pajamas
counting backwoards with a small smile
I saw you dancing there
and the bomb with all the things it could be
with knees against day glow bones
well strike up the band
because we all want it to be a flower when
were done pretending to be the sound man

faked being injured

2005-12-14T12:22:00.000-08:00

Looked for gold in my mom's house
didn't find any
thought I might find a big chunk of it
who knows, not everybody knows.
Wasn't disappointed just went to a pg-13 movie
counted all the swears, there were seven
there were young children there.
I faked being injured outside the theater
Saying "Am being attacked by badness, will you help me young one?"
4 out of 7 said
"yes"
so I kept on eating crackers outside
of church

charly brown

2005-12-07T08:19:00.000-08:00

You wake up, thinking about the things the kids carve into there desks
You call out of work using the voice of a president that has been shot at.
"I hate when presidents are shot."
You could say this to him, the stranger in your bed.
You wake him up motivated by this thought
"We need to go slow, small steps, people think they can just change in a second you can't."
He agrees with you and throws out all his acid. "I wish birds were flying over head while I did this." You both nod your head and there is another moment, you both don't know what to do. You both look at each other.
"Yup." You both say it like the first time a mom ever stops thinking about her knew born child.
"I wish I hadn't thrown out all the acid" he says with a cough
"I need to go to work and teach children about science"
"That's bullshit I thought we were going to change today no matter how slowly."
"Am sorry, I need to heat up the car"
As you are teaching the kids about the cosmos you look out the window and see him in the school yard, some kids are crying.
"Allllll be right back.” You often speak like a cartoon to the children, fearing the intensity of there growing brains.
"What are you doing here" You notice he has a knew tattoo.
"I have my ways you have yours."
You go back into the classroom; one of the kid’s raises there hands and says,
"There was a man today who told me that there is no Santa Claus” Every child’s face and reality swung facing you. You debate just pointing to the map of the cosmos or hugging each child. But all you can think of is
what is written often on the desks in the class room even at this early of age, you say it in a cartoon voice.
"Fuck the police."

lovers

2005-12-05T08:30:00.000-08:00

"I have been thinking how I don't love you anymore"
your lover for 8 years tells you as you both wake up.
"that's not good," you say.
"it's only a thought, I have millions of them a day, they don't mean much."
"what does this one mean?"
I don't know as I said it's just a thought I think about castles at times for god sake. As I said it doesn't mean that much. You don't need to blow it up."
"No, my love, that’s exactly what we need to do."
So you and your lover craft an entire world around this thought. What colors does it like, what nick names for large but not scary dogs would it make, what is the mayor of the town it life’s in daughters cheerleading song? It extensive and finally real.
"This is great for are relationship isn't it?"
there is no response
You finally ask the question, "Would this thought love me"
"Who are you?" She asks.
So you do the same with your live, devising a world based on your fears, hopes and wants
after weeks you ask again
"So would this thought love me?"
"Forget it your not a dreamer anyway"
"What's that supposed to mean.
"Watch my face of life." You lover says
has they storm out of the house leaving in there knew red car
off to a matinee movie with a blind child.

motherfucking action

2005-12-05T08:18:00.000-08:00

went to camp wearing the leather pants that my parents gave me
your parents give you everything when your young
I was never picked on any teams
spent my time talking to made up angels
on the last day we lost against the camp across the lake
i cried the longest
and a kid named Carl
asked me to sing to animal sprits
i realized that the only time your free when young is when your
crying or singing
so I believe those leather pants to be an obvious omen
they knew i was ready
i came back home didn't say a word
just burned down my room
they gave me a ticket to Tennessee
Carl know's a kid who can play the flute

showing your teeth

2005-12-05T08:10:00.000-08:00

There was a eating contest
I was sure to win
that's all I fucking do,
me and my friends from way back.
Go into a restaurant and just tear the place apart.
Eating is eating loving is loving but passion is passion
deep in my heart it was what I have
i'm obese but I can eat
I lost
kids who i could eat had this chock reflex thing
you can't beat them it's like breathing not eating
Well I still eat and i can eat
passion spreads it wings and when i reach for ranch or something right
I know am dancing with greatness
they can have there fucking trophies
I'm making love to death

37years later

2005-12-01T18:54:00.000-08:00

John watched his dad drunk coaching farm league. It was the man’s war and romance. When Connie, a mother of one of the players, voiced her opinion that perhaps he should not be drunk around small children. She was yelled down, “His got sprit,” the remaining parents yelled back a little too strongly. Five apologized by phone that night explaining that the coach was too alive to be lassoed in, just watch him, John’s dad yelled positive advice the entire time, calling time out to hug each player. Weeping uncontrollably at times, climbing fence’s, bring a boom box and playing modern country. These were the only time John saw his father emotional besides this he worked at a car wash and was almost catatonic from it when coming home. They never spoke of the games and John didn’t believe that his father even knew that he was watching the game. After the last game when his father came home bloody.
John asked “How was the season?”
“We tied every game.”
Every kid on the team became a doctor.

You fear your boss and he knows it, “That’s the person who fears me.” You hear him say often to a man who wears white gloves inches away from you. You never allow yourself to think about the man with the white gloves, never, it’s the kind of work place.
Your not used to stressful situations because your life is beautiful as the community voted. This boss is intimating however, he seems upset often snd you want to help him.
This day is different though he comes over to your desk and suggests that he teaches you how to swim. This seems odd to no one but you.
You inform him that you know how to swim "How about proper decorum in a Victorian ball," he suggests.
You don’t know if this is a joke, should you laugh hard with a tint of sarcasm or nod your head like you’re an animal that is pregnant. You decide to nod you head like an animal. Your boss walks over to the man and whispers something in his ear the man with white gloves then proceeds to walk over and slap you in the face.
“You would have no idea how to survive in the wild,” he says with support. Your boss comes back over with a smile, “Now where we, yes, and the Victorian ball were meet me at the YMCA tonight at 7.” When there your boss is playing in a wheel chair basketball game, he loses and cries and you hold him confused but wanting to feed you kids. "I heard you were beautiful," he yells. You question what true beauty is.

big boats

2005-12-01T11:46:00.000-08:00

I put my head under water and smiled a practiced smile.
See I thought to myself I kind of know what I am doing
but I did not.
It was hard enough to light my hair on fire
my son advised me that gasoline would work better then liquir
he is a scientist and I have three boats unfinshed in the yard.
I just needed signs to point me in the right direction, getting things done.
When your hairs on fire put it out.
When your alive be happy.

big shoes

2005-12-01T08:20:00.000-08:00

Marty quickly puts down his video game controller, a term you used hours ago that he laughed about until he seemed disgusted.
You question if your son ever thinks that your part of his life in anyway.
“Death” he responded, “I want to talk and I want to talk about death.”
“Great!” Happy to get a response of any kind, “We will talk about death for four days straight and just eat not so good yogurt.”
By the third day your son is singing poetic prose about death, you have cried and cried over and over again feeling more alive then ever. Wrapped up in a rug as he unleashes secrets of what it is to be alive and what death brings.
By the forth day you are tired and you are laying face down in yogurt, Marty just looks out the window and repeats "Death."
You quit your job and this cycle continues for weeks, you just eat no so good yogurt, you have lost track of Marty. You believe his flying at other times a demon.
When you turn on the TV for the first time with the hopes of being inraged you see that they have named you weatherman of the year. You cry a single tear of blood and realize as Marty is free basing his hair that you are on the right track. Change is hard, you have to move forward.

I debate that it is the structure which we view others
that best reflects who we are

He just sings about me

“There are mirrors at the bottom of buffets”
I was told while I going on a rocket ship
I told the captain to wait and jumped off
a ferry boat hours later.
While in the water
I naturally questioned who I was
as I was debating this
I saw a sea lion
but it was my old friend Ted
“You should have stayed on the rocket ship”
he said hours later crying
“I’m no match for a rocket ship.” he said
"Why were you in the water?" I asked

yup

2005-11-28T11:13:00.000-08:00

Went to a Blockbuster
And saw five kids come screaming out of a mini van
There faces
were red
the mom seemed tired but full of here we go again sarcasm
enough that I even expected a wink
but she went into the store A to B
The boys got horror films and the girls
got teen heartthrobs movies
The mom finally got a John Candy movie for all of us
made me feel like I knew everyones name in the world

a poem about the love of moms

2005-11-27T14:50:00.000-08:00

I don't really like animals
and when I'm just using my teeth
it's funny to remember
that through it all
your mom loves you
I always like those stories
where moms pick up fright trains to save there kids
I have never really talked about sex with my mom
but I came out of her body.
So here's to moms with courageously blinded idiotic colors on cloudy days.

good is great

2005-11-27T14:37:00.000-08:00

This thing was good
and I could keep on being with it.
Was it a Tuesday? Sure.
Had I been across the Atlantic? No.
But I was sure that Suzan didn't hate me anymore.
I tried to give the sandwich three different names
a lot of B and O's because well that's who I am.
a pigeon flew done
and I realized that good is great has an old friend said.
Will Suzan marry me probably not
will I see that thing on that day?
No, but I know that I can.

bright colors and living two days ahead

2005-11-27T14:27:00.000-08:00

of all the emotions related to sadness
they all come down to wanting
sugar to be healthy for me.
I would eat the fucking shit out of it,
just get in a wheel chair and eat
grab on to peoples faces and tell them I love them
I wish my dad called me up
and told seven stories
about scars that I never knew about.
Are monkeys even fun?
my heart doesn't do well with metaphors about the heart
but I got time for knew letters
ABC
I hope everyone is well.

3 in the morning

2005-11-27T14:25:00.000-08:00

not really knowing what this or anything meens

2005-11-27T14:20:00.000-08:00

watching tv for all the lovers
eating chips for egyptians
napping for time
i do my part in my own way
we are all going to die
so judge but don't pick

you can believe anything when you don't need to
and the best advice i got was:
if you can't beat them,
love them

make love to the sky

2005-11-14T11:49:00.000-08:00

I go to the trash can and as I am throwing something out a man
comes up to me out of nowhere
“Don’t throw that out” he says with a smile that I trust
“I trust your smile.”
“Come with me” he sings
We hang glide with are bodies pressed up to each other
“Am having fun," I say, with a giggle.
“I know that you are having fun.”
We glide all day long, I tell him about my sadness and he
uses horrible metaphors involving the sky and life.
I cry at each one of them like a child.
We hit the ground and go home and make love like waterfalls while listening to the Beatles.
When I awake he leaves a rose.
I go back to yelling into a hole for tourists with a twinkle in my eye.
Look into the sky there are dreams my horse yells mean to strangers.

Paris

2005-11-09T09:24:00.000-08:00

got naked and done drugs all day?
Paris is place for people not lovers
