The night we acknowledged the obstacles

Fate slips her prickly fingertips
Clawed in sharpness
Between my ribs
and gives
That tender muscle
What worth and what for
It's touched cold air
And it is sore
I implore
The why, the cause
To this effect
Screaming replied with neglect
To the air, cloud grey and wet
I'm past upset
I'm collapsed under breath
A quick scan of the breadth
A feeble hand
Lonliness
Business carded, starved and sharded
Why does it feel so, real so,
heal no, deal blows in steel toes
Glow emotional
The shock has not dropped
The verge was not earned
Not a matter of learn or earn
Yearn, burn or turn
I am murdered while the crows witness
Silent and knowing
Black and rightcheous
Cinematic and glorious
Wet t-shirts and
Procrastination
Suffocation
Elation
Emolation
Too easy for comfort
I robot
I know not
I'm lost, dehydrated and
tossed my giving of a fuck
I've rescinded my position of victim
This had to happen
I indulged with reckless abandon
Deeper than I can fathom
Creeper with the phantoms
Back pocketed
Lacking and obvious
We his ourselves from each
other
So when the skyfire searched for guitared circles,
they remained covered.
Burnt rubbers and a past lover you become
Defunct conundrum
Alas, a path,
recently turned from.
Feeling dumb I seek speech and trip over its limits.
This reserved heart a gimmick?
Reserved for whom, the search meanders
As thought panders with this rural slander.
For what use is truth, if the loops
remain loose?
It is the nature of the snooze.
The chords, words and drums that slip ninjalike into the dream state.

{Liquid courage break}

From it all, that forms it all
Spit the fire that softens the steel.
Who cares what's real?
What is real?
Burn it down
Start again
Lessons are cred
Champions are bred
And these moments get fed to the past.

    that really put a cap on me though. this is amazing. the syllables, the minimalism with absolute power.
    love you.
