Crows' nest bigger than the horizon is wide Mesmerize Cries like a canary in a coal mine I sense fine Send the terra cotta off to fight the cold war This latest lane, unwavering Obeisance Feeds the withheld in me In preparation for the Sabbath We are bypassing the tavern Attached to distractions and the mastery of feeling Wheelwrights delighted by Eiffel levels of fruition If it's all the same Cruelty is no longer leisure It is the defeat of the ergonomic Parodical trysts are the only affection I know mine They have maimed He wants heat Both sides of the fence be treated with negligence

Every angle, aggrandized By the lemon prick of melancholy Thalamic development stunted By the centripetal shelter from the gait of its race Male seahorse lascivious Stomachs the crib of roses Open to interpret The less timid, the less exquisite A prison experiment A Sisyphus on the terrace A military marriage A bribery that founded A hibernation for a more overt action A river by which we will convene Concubine, all mine, alacrity, two or three times the charm Wash up on shore with a first purl Clamber up the steps to be reduced to a murmur Harmonious as the lilt of the solar flare The brutish fluid that wrapped and snapped the wrist Plant a kiss, grasp at the ribs If there ever was a place A time to build the bird a cage If there ever was a place to do it, It's right here

Stalk burns by the bid of Mercury's retrograde Pylons the patients drive right over in this Sodom Betting on the freshest ankle-biter sink its teeth inside of the lamb Passengers up to the cockpit, School of Athens restive over absent wolves, which never through the daylight haunt Chimes spell out an eldritch glamour of the cavalier, casualties of New Roman Times You will see the sky crawling Undeterred A pulsar calling forth with gothic voice and wedding gown In a fighting stance foreign to the gullible Locked on armor, arson-colored eyes Who are they to say how I identify When the matter surrenders its parcel and leviathan decline who to soldier for I'll be done owing anyone Just wait 'til it walks
4.
Sharp ground tastes like sour forage Scratch the back you are capable of stabbing At an arachnid rate Anima subverting the straight and narrow Knowing God is rotting in the watchtower Imam upon the pulpit spouting indecision Underneath a flickering offer to be a martyr An argument that led the victim to the water The broad shoulders of trauma augment the iridescent The unaided eye of a tireless bigot That thinks the Ship of Theseus is anything but what it started as Unlike you we are nouveau This ship is null but a fractal Flaunt atomic 'til it's cold Autotheist biome Over the garden wall an army of fifteen million to preoccupy Some day we won't have to come out Just say we are, and that will be When you reduce life to this You never see

A harrowed incident Yawns for the heir apparent Met to protect the newborn Pressured to invest in prowess Driven to confess to abrasion of the expert, disenchanted Drawn by the vessel Over cardinal chances Has it ever occurred to you I measure belief through All the threats I hold against your dark Fragile liaison covered up Spirit hung then sentence be The target of the darts You've lived all you hope to find in this Complacent in the fluid We exit in the same fashion You were mistaken The way it transpired was by design All your relatives Are collateral damage We share in the catatonia Only, I control your movements Sobbing like a sinner in my palm Now that you're familiar with exile It's all yours Even your darling has the robes of the rival on the floor So you forget I'll steal your breath and leave you and the truth to be unearthed But you lied, and retreated to your old way of life The only thing burned was your assurance You fucking coward I'll hang you at the precipice First shot was not mine You're scared, as I'm scared Let it go we've been absolved Altered in ways We'll forever punish ourselves for

Fish covered in feathers endeavor to slip in, noticed and unnoticed, just to pocket some Lincolns Sobbing in the corner, unable to find the link in Safe word necessary to maintain order Flood the estuary to pride the sorcerer Done the most to ward off foreclosure Still whored as a sort of effigy of the deformed and handicapped, unable to properly handle a candy apple Stop when you hear the alarm, but don't cause a scene Peered through the venue doors to come upon a barn, replete with moments like these conceived The rapport is far beyond damaged, unable to be restored by cardamom, amethyst, or any tokens of appreciation The gifts that facilitate the daily activities of the each and every, suffocated by tall tales of the non-defaulter as the creep Should they ask for more, tell them enough has occurred to deserve to be ameliorated Put to task, on the table, a meal, when prejudice has faded
7.
Efface the exigency, beckon the plant to its knees, repeat in neighboring cities to beat a redirection Tailgate everywhere they long to stake a claim, burrow into the hallow and show how to spring from the core Secure the wharves, the concierge is sure to place them parallel, to see themselves The fleeting health is seen in full detail, it's real So-called sterile fountainhead, dove in the landfill Your heart ended someone else's, yet I still see you everywhere Resilience is applauded, unless you tamper a witness Efface the exigency, beckon the plant to its knees, repeat in neighboring cities to beat a redirection Tailgate everywhere they long to stake a claim, burrow into the hallow and show how to build a ceiling over expectancy, as the rejects return to infancy Fight the feeling, as you've instructed, come on, enjoy the torture voguishly encased With every forlorn pawn sworn in, the endgame grows evermore tender The final few layers give way, and the memory serves them well You will not get away with this, all the fallen will resurrect

Pangaea 14:18
Filling the wilderness with every monument of ancient sight No provisions can turn the court to a palace Nor can sprout a name as proudly referential What you have bestowed is beyond the scope of my courage I carry this with me the times I crash into your snow angels Desultory in the vast albatross, I signal a small involvement from the ways you tugged my arm, and guided me along the ripples I see mistakes in all evolution, but all of it past my point of arrival has been flawless by your grace, notwithstanding the vantage I cling to A balancing act, perpetual, gentle motion As long as there is sought a great perhaps, still I lap the nurturing crucible, for a dawn looms from which I am cornered by torment unabated, and my only known creator has taken the ardor with her, into an hour unturned Titles never feel generous enough I am addled as to how to love a parent, but this is the letting, come whatever may

The only reason to wish the existence of God, is so there would be someone to blame, when there is no more material to bridge the gaps, established by radical glances past the forthcoming No one has ever stopped what is to happen, let alone pushed it subdural At the fore of the inescapable Where, ever, has belief earned prestige

about

The future of art is left to chance, and mechanical hearts.
