Tiger Races

lonely birthdays
and vivid cakes
the ghostly pictures
long forgotten but
endlessly moving
from place to place
from one house to another
one heart to the other
someone caught peeing
on a welcome mat
and a stone vase falling down
from the open sky
wiped out by the wave
she saw the rubble,
she saw the swollen sea
tug of war with tightened eyes
tiger races never won til now
ever shifting ever knowing ever
(tied up in knots
pushed down
the stairs backwards)
color averted
purple shoulders
regrets of last night's
stretches daunting
conversations sunk
but not dead in the water
some of us don't have yards
only crooked concrete
and late trees that
bowed down to the stress
of green-eyed neighbors
even though
they're superior
with their split ends
and their sickly stomachs

Sleep

sail away
in a dream
feed the flickering hope
sail away
where you need
quiet, against the storm
i realise...
(she saw the rubble
she saw the swollen sea)
sail away
where you need
quiet, against the flood
sail away
dream away
try to make her sleep

in the lobby, in your room
find the spirits, make them move
in due time tears will come
tears will come they will flow
and make time for the new
to come, to come
through a door shut
past the ghosts
the tick tock gets too slow
everything must be lost
wiped out by the waves
dead and then alive again
the light of day
outlines a dark shape

Terror
06:20
|
|||
wicked shadows
and dug holes
obstacles created
by your terror
by the terror
a brother cries
never lies
an alibi
for the scheming sister
an eye for terror
i am terror
see it when i look in the mirror
the mirror not a mirror
wicked shadows
and dug holes
obstacles created
by the terror
by your terror
a brother cries
never lies
an alibi
for the scheming sister
we are born innocent
only to be proven guilty
by a torn jury
life sentence of terror

find a stranger, make a move
tell this person what you'll do
how you'll burn all of the books
to make time for the new
