Pyrotechnic

there was a day of darkness
in its bowels grew emptiness
in its heart grew a tree
mortal angels still saw black
felt mysteries and girth of the dark
stars? oh! obscene!
skies bled
rage poured red
dwellings burned!
A world turned!
light is born!
World is Dead!
light is born!
but all is dead!
a stalk through their smiling head!
play with birth,
play with fire
Count the days,
kill desire
take my wings,
fly away
keep your thoughts
for another day.

One Dreamer,Half a Dog and a Piece of Cloth

I

Somewhere the moon is laughing at me
while reason clouds my ability
somewhere a baby is bawling
while a horsecart spikes my airwave
the sweet minister has cheated
the queen was mistreated
but remorse isn't a royal trait
the worm of pride is a swell bait
doors don't always open to freedom
windows don't always close to safety
the dog jumped for the worm
his eyes shut firm
Now,
the canine condition is unknown
but they say t'was foretold

II
I've fallen into a machine
a rodent's on the system system
her fabric is torn
a fiefdom born
wait for your turn
feel her burn
those who lied,
came fat and died

The Sky is a Mirror

HE took her on a long ride,out of the city drones,into the obscures. The path was neat.Like a straight,black space clinically cut between the plush green hair of a huge monster. The white lines on it glowed,like they were welcoming his girl into the wilderness.The moon had a strange halo around it. Such a night would have been a broken record without the stars that winked at the mortals every now and then. the staunch black sky was studded with millions of these stars. He pulled over the middle of nowhere,a place that was lit solely by a very voyeuristic moon. He took his shirt off and gave it to his freezing sweetheart,rested his bare back on the hot bonnet and said to his love-"when will you ever love me?"

Just Another Simulation

Stroll down the lane
watching a rising dot
the day begins to rot
the pyre burns like a cigarette
in the garden of insanity,sanity stands little chance
MURDER! MURDER!
there's thunder beneath the grass
he wants to trade it for some grass
she thought she saw the sun
but wished it was more fun


The water cries for you now
human compassion will take a bow
under the skies
on false floors,life hits a new low
truth is sealed in a box
the polluted wall talks
a rabid dog barks
do we all know where this is going?
the labyrinth of conception was set on fire!
ARSON!ARSON!
there's water under my skin
bones so thin
and satan in my veins
with blood in my aura


it's slightly difficult to walk in the sky
easier to think before you die
over my head,thoughts collide
inside my head,a cold wind blows
wish i knew what they had inside
wish i bothered to bother
baked beans for breakfast?
sound could travel faster than light!
my joints burn faster than yours
arthritis can skip it's turn
because mary jane was naked under her covers
sloppy feet,dry lips
i want to see the last explosion of the last explosion
but then again
sound could travel faster than light
sound could travel faster than light
can't you get your basics right?

The Orange of Morphine

He walked alone,barefoot.On orange-red asphalt.He could smell burning human meat all around him-on the periphery of the path,from him-it emanated and choked him like some peevish noxious gas,but he inhaled it,because his brittle heart was broke.It floated in matrix in microscopic fragments.Still,something kept him walking,something made his feet numb to the infernal orange,something tuned his nose to the fatal fragrance,the cliche,the overly human emotion.

His tongue felt super-glued to the floor of his mouth whenever he wanted to say it,ironically because he meant it beyond the imaginable contours of what is known as the "universe" to human-kind.he did not want to lose her.She made him.She made him believe that it's OK to be a man.It was her relentless energy that made him atleast crawl on with his morbid life.Death was imminent,like viewing the back of the net of a goalpost from the six-yard box,it stood right in the midst of his pitch-dark future.His nights were not about revelry,dope,revolutionary bullshit or alcohol-flavored jam sessions anymore.they had become perpendicular inversions of whatever it was.

The nights were moribund now.the pain crept in,he wept his pain out,made some seditious statement that incited his dead emotions against life.Then it happens-"Blood say hello to morphine.Morphine,say hello to blood".Then Keith Moon,Roger Daltrey,Pete Townshend,Jim Morrison and the likes would sing him their famous lullabies.

When his heavy eyelids shut and impose their weight on his sagging skin under his eyes,he finds the portal to the otherside of the world.There,he looks at her chocolate brown eyes(a subtle cover of milk chocolate over the traditional dark chocolate),dips in it's unfathomable elixir.He was a word-smith,and he could sculpt words off air,like breeze that hits you hard while walking in a park,or a cake for that matter,that's when he realised that wordsmiths embrace vanity.He shut open his eyes to reality.the sudden surge of pragmatic prudence sprinted across his sole-soul.he was Broken.she had broken him.She was the only one who could do that to him.all of it,and as she stationed herself as a star on the sky of another sun-monger,a scream screamed its last scream,and he was gone,just like that,like dust in the wind,absorbed into thin air.FOR ETERNITY

Solipsism,Freedom

What are you doing here?

What do you want?
Is it music?
We can play music.
But you want more.
You want something & someone new.
Am I right?
Of course I am.
I know what you want.
You want ecstasy
Desire & dreams.
Things not exactly what they seem.
I lead you this way, he pulls that way.
I'm not singing to an imaginary girl.
I'm talking to you, my self.
Let's recreate the world.
The palace of conception is burning.


Look. See it burn.
Bask in the warm hot coals.
You're too young to be old
You don't need to be told
You want to see things as they are.
You know exactly what I do

Everything

TAPE NOON

Tell them you came & saw & looked
into my eyes, & saw the shadow
of the guard receding
Thoughts in time & out of season
The hitchhiker stood by the side of the road
& leveled his thumb in the
calm calculus of reason

         (a car passes)

Why does my mind circle around you
Why do planets wonder what it
Would be like to be you

All your soft wild promises were words
Birds, endless in flight

Your dog is still lost in the frozen woods
or he would run to you
How can he run to you
Lunging w/ blooded sickness on the snow
He's still sniffing gates & searching
Strangers for your smell
which he remembers very well

Is there a moon in your window
Is madness laughing
Can you still run down beach
rocks bed below w/ out him?



  Winter Photography
  our love's in jeopardy
  Winter Photography
  our love's in jeopardy
Sit up all night, talking smoking
  Count the dead & wait for morning
(Will warm names & faces come again
  Does the silver forest end?)

Sunday Morning Blues

What can I read her
What can I read her
   on a Sunday Morning

What can I do that will
   somehow reach her
   on a Sunday Morning

I'll read her the news of
   The Pashtun wars

Full of criss-calvary, blood
                 & gore

Stories to tame & charm
& more

On a Sunday Morning

Rubbing Alcohol


Here I am,inspired to write because I am pissed off.I don't feel as bitter as I want to be.I need to re learn the English language.I seem insincere because I can't choose or decide fast enough.My penmanship seems scatological because of my lack of personality,or excess of personality.I am obsessed with the fact that I am skinny and stupid.I confide in too many conflicting opinions and parties and groups and classes and clubs and meetings and concessions and recessions and conventions wearing a grand hat with drink in hand boasting of the hunting and organised past time activities these 17 years have served.A sterile bacterial success.I've been to a lot of poetry readings and more importantly,writing.I don't think and when I do,I forget.Chemicals are the thing of today,today ill take as man chemicals as I can get my greasy paws on,because this scent reminds me of you.Yesterday's scent is still here today,I'm beached,flat out stranded and obsessed.I've got to leave because you're still here in my air,playing with my sense of smell,invading my airwaves.I'm a reactionary,in a way.I just react to what others say.

Moronic Outburst

The barium never left me
cigarette burns in comforters
riddled with approach
cursed with welcome talents
I've never been so YES

I know exactly what i'm doing
it's all under control
i don't need any help
I'd rather not
please leave me
be control freak
I appreciate your concern
has gratuity been added?
set it down over there
handler of the gods
