Starless and Bible Black

a less than morning
feels like
my throat
is ripping itself
apart bit by bit
as the night time
hours have passed
in progression
to this early morning.
so i sit here now
wide awake
with that ache
growing inside
of me.


Passive Aggressive Assholes Are Still Better Than Regular Assholes
passion by its very definition
will have some amazing
results but always runs the risk
of misinterpretation.
all i expect from you
is only that which i expect
from myself.
nothing more
nothing less.
there is nothing
in that statement
that can be misunderstood.
i will quit before
you do.
that is a fact.



all i want to do
is sleep away
the pain in my body
and wake up
at a new day.



this chill is freezing me
as the dawn
makes itself
seen once more.

P.A.A. Part II
passive
aggressive
asshole?
better that
than whatever
the alternative
may be.
lets not point fingers
cause
neither of us
is free from
mistakes.
i will always admit mine.
remember
my words are never
out of malice to you.
i would no sooner
raise my hand
to strike you
than i would
do that
with
my
words.



blind faith dreaming idiots run the risk of failure and success
if you do not follow
the blind passion
that fuels you
then you are just a
little bit less
complete than
you hope to be.
if you have let
your parents,
your friends,
and life discourage
you from the calling
of your heart
then you are more
dead than
those
who lie in wait
in the ground.

"sad paper courtesan, they found him just a man."


fuck art, fuck artists
there is no real glamor
in a pursuit that is so
off putting to so many
though the many
may love to hear
the fruits
of those works.


knock knock and try not to stutter
sometimes
there is nothing better to do
than to just sit
here typing away
in peace and quiet
when the onslaught
of the coming days
stands knocking
patiently at my door.


#####
lets get back to one
or barring that
then two.



dear old man,
you are dead old man
and i have seen
where you rest
these days.
i could sleep all
day at your grave
and think that
maybe i could dream
all those dreams
you no longer can
for you as i lie there
waiting and searching
for answers
from a clear blue sky.


dicho
it is always a foolish mistake
to place your faith in either
man or religion.
