hello again 01:42
hello again it's been too long staying in my voice cracks at any sign of pushback i've fought the current before learning to swim i've drowned with no one around, eaten by the waves the air I called mine was stolen
3.
repurposed 02:48
late at night bitten by the briskness from the waterside I can't hide, there's spotlights out again everyone is looking through the double sided mirror i'm enclosed in i'm cooped up with no exit on the horizon watch the sunrise on the ceiling snuff the never ending night just put me to sleep I put me to sleep i'll put me to sleep i'll put me down burning at both ends waiting to collect the molten wax that drips like a vicious cycle with delayed reward here it comes

night rider 02:16
in the morning wish it was nighttime get out of bed I put some eggs on drift through the daylight hazy and out there when the sun sets I am the master now it is nighttime I go for a bike ride this is my time my time to hide I do not want to hurt you but it's the one thing I must do I follow the orders from my bastard master and he is the one that I serve

you better watch where you're stepping this old house got creaky floorboards any sudden sound might wake the neighbors and you know we try our hardest to love them do you think they have it out for us I think they might have it out for us do you think they went and bought a gun for us do you think that they want to bury us I think we have to move I think we have to move is it me talking or is it the paranoia self diagnosed agoraphobia there's bad guys around every painting do you see him here standing in the corner can you see him here hes right in the corner tell me you see him here right in the corner duck under windows hide under floorboards shimmy off to bed you know the rules, lights off by dusk if you slip up we all could be dead

sailor jerry 02:27
I aint never been fishing without my pal Jerry. Everytime we get together I can't wait to see all the funny fishes he's gonna pull out of the water. Being with Jerry is like the presence of a father. He's looking out so I can eat real good tonight, he's casting his reel to places I never thought of.

unfinished food for the spirits I dont finish cups or plates leave the rest for the swift wind of the unknown to sweep it away dirty sink ashtray warm window screen summer day roasting in the sun smelling of chemicals oh yeah it’s right there a familiar cupboard closes 3 years goes by and you don’t even notice someday i’ll be back someday i’ll be back like the old times again yea like the old times Living off pictures I wish you’d pick up Keep calling your phone yea You never pick up

susurrus 03:48
I can feel it all around barely audible but it's nowhere to be found it follows on the trails, it follows on the walk home but when I turn around I turn around and nothing says hello I feel the stillness nothing says hello am I alone now? universal murmuring disguised in pines and breeze over my face the friction, I love it so i wake up and i step outside and i look around and i look to the sky i stare at the sun and sing a little song and i laugh and feel good so what could go wrong i walk to the store and look at the people going everywhere and doing what they do and i go to the lake and relate to the ripples and sit on some books and let the words roll through me and i can feel it all around it’s barely audible and i’m searching for the sound i follow on the trails i follow everywhere and when it’s finally found

bug eyes 03:02
ive never seen a creature traveling so fast with such intent I asked where are you going early this morning before he took the wind with bug eyes that wooed me it had to be moving you know there's no time to waste! being so little must change your outlook in so many significant ways someday i'll take to the wind and then you'll never see me again someday these bug eyes will swim and then you'll never see me again there's mamas and papas and aunties and uncles and someday we all will ferment until the mold in our belly turns bile to babies that roll til they hit the cement

yo momma 01:10
i saw your mother eat your family the other day your brothers head was like chicken wings i saw your mother eat your sister whole in a firey escapade second born she never played your father was next oh how he tried to run away hiding never worked your mother knows everything the family pet was the only thing she left alone oh she was ashamed found days later by the mailman full and hanged

I’m at a stop light I’m looking down avoiding all eye contact get over yourself cuz at the end you know it’s not you it’s the people around you peering into your back seat equally mute perceiving you well at the end of the day when we all float away we get to point b and we’re all alone its the people around you they want you to say hello say hello
