The Crypt

Harbinger
Faintest life hollow
Sketches of skeletons linked
Always to follow
Rat catcher
Stone the cold bastard
Termination justified if legibly reactive
Exactly as old dad did
Focused with no regret
No bid but my highest
Controlled by locusts
He’s brain fed
Your highness, he’s withdrawin’
Get this man some valium again
Teeth yellow
Street feet hello
Morellos in the dumpster
The key to honor
Inked on the back of the wanderer
Strength through broken sinews
Artistic renewed through the bruises and the redos
Geist, skeletal see-through, no truth
Cold youth, thrown down the stairs
This kid’s no use
And still not what I once was
Not like last year
The nightmare of
Candied addict a
blacked out life career
Fuck em all
They only hear what I want em to hear
A breed of bedeviling
Constant custodial fears
Last to be teaching since reaching agreement
Over what constitutes typical beliefs
I’m outside, left to die
No identity conditions
Abusing the pistons
Shadows time to testify
Unified forgiveness
All clear, hit the pipe and we split
Code switch, open the crypt

The Collapse

Last resort
Lowest class list
Degenerate mess fantastic
No heaven torching, god repair
Kill culture, face it fair
Blasphemous
Under no assumptions
He controls the trigger safely
Puts the gun to rest beside his head
And hopes his guts will hold till daylight
He’s shaking foot to stomach
Scanb skin, bleached copper flavor
Physiologically debased
Placing all anger in error
It’s like he can’t even see no more
He just sees through
Copies of reptiles
In crisp blue suits
Lording the few
Drawn back
Prod down
Keep the cattle cool
Till sundown
Engrossed in values
Upheld by a poltergeist
Enjoy the comedown
Melted sloppy in the sun
Cole as eyes
Black vice
Avocado branches as arms
Hardened in firefly lights
Bound with no gag
Lackluster stardust
Standing quantum
Yet we spit trick garbage
Maybe its expected
No one lives as promised
Delivered fates over to
Sequestering conflict
Reinvented stop animation
Reanimate when there’s prospect
How dare this terrain take the caustic for granted
Eternity uprooting planets with some mind-body adage
Enacting shape-shifting spirit gain
And whispering caskets
The decaying whisper back
And unify the collapsing

The Mindful

Locked away to keep me somewhat sane
But I enable the drain
Chasing mazes of memories
The days without this disease
The ashtray centerpieces
Alive and free alone
Medicated, high at home
Watching as the trend of who I am
Spills fully out of my control
The creatures are out tonight
New blood, self-surrender
Reacquire the cold
Frozen on a bender
Exit when the heavens fall too close for redemption
Disposition mercurial
It’s not like every moment is suicide
But unfortunately typical
Let him decompose
Buried with castigation
Malice and stagnation
Creation has been wasted
An abomination
No worker-bee or follower
Autonomous rule-giver
Ex communicado lauder
Padded walls and prisons stronger
Than his will to remain
Cuffed for life
Help me bleed out
This broken fate
Grima, I of the trees and wind mindful
Ashes to ashes
We all walk blindfolded

The Addict

Focus in, focus up
No blacklisting open up
Past facts don’t mean shit to us
It’s a disease
Its in our blood
Its born when we’re born
Dispositions might change
But never the core
Its war
Its fucking war for an addict
Body shaking to get past it
But the last time you barely lasted
And this aint gonna be like fuckin last time
Chained to a bed
With needles in bloodlines
Pissin in bottles
And swallowing pride
Somehow
This external world
Has burned me inside
But its habit and anger and privilege and pride
And my body gets weaker when so is my mind
And I’m fucking tired
My body eatin me alive
Hunger drowning in calories
From 11 percent to 7.5
Its days of being swallowed
Head storms and night terrors
Living in my flesh
An ecosystem without barriers
Encaged
Buts its always a choice, right?
Let’s make some lateral moves
And I’ll get back later tonight

The Jester

Send zipties
Torture victim
Forced back alive
Reanimated demon’s head
Majestic crests
All magnified
The evil incarnate in all genotypes
Enfeebles mics
Buries needles high
And pulls unorganized
A slasher lullaby
The sutures dentil floss
And the scars confession high
A better gesture
Than a jester’s lie
In time for Valentines
Deserve noble
Born bolder
Rat guts
The stone solider
Inebriated
Bleeding from the mouth
The broken ogre
Piss poor in dress
He spits with tall dissent
Torn up and rectified
Eating garbage, sleeping in the streets
With addict allies
From bragging rights
To benedictions
Hats off to off grid
We owe the essence
Godspeed
Taught hairlines
Gripped knuckled tight
Holding ace-high
As the kings divide
Ripped into quarters
A crowd’s delight
At the final destruction of order
The pendulum swings against the pit
--Times what kills shit
The vacancy of ground
Ain’t probable but constant
And no moment could redeem
Pandora pleased to pull the skin from eyelids
just like naked dreams

The Boiled Air

Duress under the sunlight—stressed right?
He broods with the shades drawn
Consuming raw napalm
Palms stretched out in alms
Black block
Black mask
Thought you’d never ask
Yes it’s violence not to overthrow a state that ensures existence through more violent acts
Living on trash
Mutated animal genes
Seems friendly until the balloon pops behind the chimpanzee
Dead air, no breeze
Passion stilted, rooted release
Get on with the skin graft
And move on to dismembering
I’m at knife edge, razor gut
Bandaged and boiled up
Invested in and trusted
Twisted exist, ceasing substance
Cloaked joy and madness
Checkered success savage
Measured steps to the attic
Leveraged to be candid
But the illumination darkens
When we can’t see the bottom of the ladder
Suspended between conscious control
And unconscious laughter

The Dead Space

I’ve feel depth
Maybe unified aesthetic
flood lights drawn to drown out any record
Liminal horror, dead energy festering
Set the course for soiled water
Rain decrepit eventually
The suffering will need an exit
Left to self-assassination
Maybe lacerations
Will get us through unmolested
Unlikely
Decomposition comes to all
Renders flesh unsightly
Outpaces guns drawn
The point ain’t to just face it
But grapple, ensnake it
Entrails naked
Stomach cut
Broken fingernails painted
To look alive
To catch the limelight
Fully naked
Summon recovery
One last ditch effort
The joy of death reflected off the wings of the effervescent
Ever-now
Now gone forever
Every moment
Dead to sender
Every sign something to remember
Beauty outweighs
God, good and evil, and even forged Lincoln in letters
