1.
instilled in me this feeling of firstness. an inevitable, compelling incentive to try. that experience would somehow befit me. waning inspiration, yawning importance animal pursuit of exhaustion... they speak of youth... naiivity's nostalgic cousin. but of this cosmic betrayal-- intention's essence co-opts the complex. so, i ask: can't i dream? or are all my tomorrows' somebody else's metaphor?
2.
memento mori 00:57
distillation like metal to hot wax, forgive me as this anodyne of leaves melts away. atmosphere of change clings to moist bones, forgiveness is the apparition of the breeze... disconnected assessment, clouded antithesis, empty, longing arms.
3.
palimpsest, facsimile, verisimilitude.
4.
running man 02:06
ripping from the source a tapestry unwinding in the history of eyes; a scenic snow storm captures the cascadian nature of blood-flow. ambiance of drifting plumes, feathering abstersion and a smothering dust that occupies and a smothering dust that occupies lungs are now present, now capillaries, now heart.
5.
my body is barometer for debunking myth. ring out bile and ink; this dripping mucous membrane.
6.
patience tilts its scale burdened and blessed like a gilded mantle
7.
longing to dissipate, like wind through the dandelion. distract me from the pull, a numbing feeling from the banal; sometimes a plunging bird is a sign of relief. grey clouds among amaranthine light i think of taking this last step-- distract me from the pull, a numbing feeling from the banal; my blood grows warm thinking of dying. a glowing, swirling embrace. my blood grows warm but i won't mourn the glowing spiral. distract me from this craving-- (raptured in forbidden fantasy of death.)
8.
tact to your alienation is a disingenuous suggestion i am no longer willing
9.
acacian bark revealing the symmetry in nature ancient geometry arranges itself in it's canopy luminous arcane husk all hail the alfheimian king crown adorned with amber crystals
10.
all our lives drooling through luck in the draft apparition
11.
semi-circles of iridescent waves, comfort in glossolalia, perimeters are shimmering... portraits pulsate a restless hue. a hum among static-- a glowing silence, shadows wane into nothing.
12.
waves push this husk to shore torpid shell in stasis lacteal sea-foam arms pull you back reminds you of your infancy halcyon days of a sloth-like pendulum time passes, even more stolid innumerable troughs, dyscalculia a medium to your sorrow amelioration, another fruitless bike shed
13.
sibilant, constant planar design. through this linear perception three sounds growing louder and louder more deafening brain marred synapses wilt, sebaceous protuberance remains healing soon nil limbic resonance tiring limbic resonance tiring limbic resonance tiring limbic resonance tiring
14.
wind blows dry skin and tobacco wisps into eyes; a dark shade of red lingers and the hazy moon... a few spare letters and notes drift with the breeze-- the same wind billows a sheet back into eyelids-- speckled lioness and the magic of a dark day-- silence-- eyes heal a broken inward stare. a soft touch. and a solemn grimace is the intimacy of repair.
