Lyrics:
I got the mind
I’d left behind
It’s not in rhyme
But has the rhythm
I wandered blind
To learn insight
I’m not alright
But that’s a given
XXX
Spooky dreams
Haunt my rest
And glitch my programs
Through the tears
I’ve suppressed
I’d sink five oceans
Lucid screams
Not expressed
Dictate these vocals
Souvenirs
In my head
Inflate emotions
XXX
I got the mind
Hard blows designed
All rotten files
Need overwritten
I’m caught in tides
That slow my strides
Forgotten smiles
Leave holes within me

Prime Of Death
Time goes fast
But the emotions last
They seem a chore to master
Let them lead you
They’ll leave you hanging
Climb the mast
And steer us from the past
We’ve leaked from shore to harbour
Let the sea through
Then seal the damage
XXX
I’ve wished and bowed and prayed
Pity sounds delayed
Drink these sour grapes
Squished into lemonade
I’m wilting by the flame
I think myself insane
I sit mid deck in waves
Wishing for better sails
But
XXX
Time has crept
Here in its arms I’ve slept
I’m in the prime of death
Peering through curtains
At what I’ve spent
I climb the steps
Of sadness and regret
I paid each bill direct
Secrets and burdens
I pay by cheque
XXX
Time demands
Banned feelings bind both hands
They breed like spores in dampness
Wade in deep boots
To heal that sadness
Life seems harsh
Bad dreams rewind sore pasts
They squeal like moles in darkness
Bathe the deep wounds
To reach that madness
XXX
I’ve missed the brighter days
Things that life forbade
Imprisoned in the shade
Enclosed in anger’s cage
So
I’m clinging on in vain
Insisting life must change
I itch inside my brain
Which lotion calms this rage?
XXX
Time has crept
Hearing its chimes I’ve wept
I’m in the prime of death
Nearing destruction
Behind on rent
I climb the steps
To pay my last respects
I have defined myself
Repeating functions
My mind has learnt

Cursory Rhyme
Cradle my head just right
Make shapes by the bedroom light
Be patient and well tonight
Take care that my health’s alright
Tuck in my teddy tight
And dust where the bed bugs bite
Please say one last precious rhyme
And waken me when its time
XXX
Sketch lines I’ll fill with joy
Tell me I’m your little boy
Protect me from hurtful words
And shelter me from the world
Soothe me til I’m at ease
Good roots build the highest trees
With you here I’ll never fear
We’ll shoot beasts with silver beads
XXX
Mend this gown with broken scissors
Upend my frown with smoke and mirrors
I tend the mound where hope still withers
I fed the hound my only slivers
By roots I’m bound in earth malicious
The wolf now growls at any issues
He chews on doubt, finds stress delicious
And looks around with tense suspicions
XXX
Place gratitude in my hand
And my heart will understand
We’ll pray for that second chance
Create a new circumstance
We’ll paper the cracks and scuffs
And tape up the damaged stuff
We’ll shake out the tarnished rugs
Replace all the shattered bulbs
XXX
Send the clown back when I falter
And let me down with threads I altered
I pencilled out what pen had ordered
So when I drown drop cents in water
My heart stopped cold to kill what’s rotten
I glanced below at things forgotten
A cache of gold that sinks to bottom
My hands let go and swim the torrent
