Flood gathers debris
Then retreats to the sea
Through interstices of architecture
Take everything you can carry
It will be all that keeps you company

Paralysis and Puppetry

I had begun leading my organs
In a direction benefitting
Extensions of my body
I have begun telling myself
This is not what I am
Supposed to be
I had begun deciding ultimately
My position on the certainty
Of who I surround myself by
Only to have it all stolen
By an equally uncontrollable
Tempest
I had begun arranging the pieces
Of the surgeries I’ve performed
On the sun’s offspring
I have begun selling the sculptures
And the totems
To somehow redeem the total loss
Of the stitching on the seams
Of my fragments
I had begun dispelling gifts
Of a discordant, nebulous sort
For the stream that bites,
The purest, empathetically
electric stream
As of now, my corpse inside out
And painted just the same
This is all I retain

It snakes around the hips
Puppet by paralysis
Cinched at the coccyx
Pulling on the tail
Like a rudder failing
Posterity timorous
Liquid tamarisk
Sans the tickle
With each sip
A dwelling ailed
The plight of being
A mass-saturated
Mutation of diegetic
Eroded to beatnik
Taken underneath
Greeting the faces of
Crows dressed as sheep

Let It Run Dry

(Let your teardrops fall)
(Let your teardrops fall)
(Let your teardrops fall from your eyes)
You never miss your order
Till your well runs dry
Till your well runs dry, again
You used to take me, for a little boy
Running up and down that great big isle
Telling all your friends that I am your guy
And that you don't need me again
Now that your all alone
And you have no one to call your one
Your taking up your tellphone
Beginng me to come home
But listen, my friend
I'll never make that mistake again
'Cause you don't need me as your friend
