Images flash in my head. A passing scene, no explanation. An empty room, a restaurant, a broken car, burning California. The might-have-beens, the never-was. Expectations tepid and contaminated. Eyes shut now were open then. The memory always Midas standards. A mountain top, a valley floor made crystalline in winter. Never made an eye, […]
I’m so tired of dreaming. A second life just as demanding as the first. I just want to lay my head down without having to participate. So sick of this; whatever it is. Parallel universe, or just synapses firing wildly in the night. Sewing crazy tapestries. I never was the type who wanted any […]
We never learned how to follow the stars. We were born in the day, afraid of the dark. Taught one way, denied the other. One point of view blind to another. Never thought to question this infatuation with hiding in plain sight. This constant agrivation, there are no more forevers when the horizon line […]

Morbid fascinations, like birds and skeletons and trying to build reality using dream geometry.

You seldom come this low, down below. Where visions show and travelers embrace the smoke. These halls of all that is, has been and ever will be; you lose yourself in me, however temporarily. I hold a mirror to you, when it breaks it shows a shower of unfamiliar faces, each with a fleeting […]
They’re gonna kick you when you’re down, they’ll try to put you in the ground. ‘Cause you’ve been thinking way too loud and making us all proud; I hope that you can see it now. We put our faith and hope in you, all that we asked was for the truth, of all our lives […]
