(minus the dry)

It was the
purest poison
I could receive
licking the blood spray
from your hand
tasting of alkaline,
rusted and sad
slumped down to
embrace the flood
Bad medicines that
have a good taste
we ask no quarter
no plan to get out
alive, and well,
while feeling immortal,
do we really care?
Float on til
we can float no further
spirits swirling like smoke rings
choosing to become ghosts
our former worlds
left back behind
such great heights
and some pretty fine lows
We can be each other's
eyes and ears,
habits and impulses
say you love me
show me wat it's like
carve it to my arm
one pinprick at a time
a modern day masterpiece
gallery of suffering
to feel "jus okay"
off E and running,
we are truly
works of art
timeless and appreciating
Let's be forever
watever that is
in watever form,
as long as it's pretty
inside, down
and out

limited Death curse

Lords have mercy
but I am best
served cold
take a bite
apple of Eden
I am the
Savior
offering no
Salvation
upside down
and a cross
words puzzle
trying in vein
to figure out my
thought process
speed it up
for the ampheta-meaning
burns out low
pushit real good
salt and powder
abducted
crushed up like
my soul and senses
with one last cell
firing on
all cylinders
this circle of Life
is jus so perfect
I can't watch
to do so might
end me

Lethe Field

reflecting, refracting
smoke for addition
pills for subtraction
fast acting
Instant Relief
jus another Indian
who got no chief
lost in the soul
needle holds my belief
lo and beheld
6 feet underneath
nothing is left
no estate to bequeath
the 7 leaf
hits me best
and it is lil distress
small state of unrest
but this anxiety
is better to me
than being depressed

Cotton Shot #6

Fiend,
this compulsion
borders on
disgusting
sobriety leads to
loss of identity
If I'm not categorized
by using
and losing that sense
of self is
par for my course
of course
inhaling, sniffling
Interjections
to the heart of the
matter, hypodermia
gravity is
my foremost Enemy
but the mirror man
is my opponent
self defeat,
thy name is mine
I own it
as it owns me

Genesee County

There's a place
I never wanted to be
that contains the
One who makes my
heart beat fast
she is the wish
I never knew I had
she is the desire
the crux of existing
for if not her,
why should I
care to carry on?
nothing makes me happy
yet she found a way
seemingly effortless
I feel I've been blind
searching so long
since our last life
together ended
we woke up in
this strange terrain
with an unquenchable ache
and a sense of longing
memories wiped away
but there were still
streaks and fingerprints
on the glass
traces and fragments
and I knew there was
something better,
something more
But it was only
in the depths of this
incredible low,
once I had given up
ready to give in
that she found me
pulling me from the plunge
I was about to take
it is her that showed me
wat I can't see alone
I cherish her sweet heart
she is the omega
she is the sun
that pokes thru storm clouds
the only bright I can see
it's not easy
it never will be
but anything worthwhile
is always a challenge
I will fight for my love
against myself and the world
til I can show that
I am worthy of her
she is my Galaxy
my Solar System
and every dimension therein
when this life is over
we begin anew
and I pray to find her
quicker next time
because I will never
stop looking
lay me down to sleep
I'm flying to the moon again
dreaming about Michigan
and the beauty it contains

Insom(a)niac

I made it thru
the Wilderness
only to find
harsher terrain
and more jungle
sometimes it makes me wonder
Teenage angst has grown old
sick of being this
eternal adolescent
searching for the party
lost in the cause
inefficient rebellion should've
died out by now
instead of jus floundering
Adult Situations-
I wanna grow up
but there's object in the path
I am blocking my way
clogging up the works
so to speak
guilt weighs a
metric ton
and I'm wondering if
I'm ever gunna be enough
more and more
I'm afraid for
the answer

Religious

Dark evil hate
continuously running
like a faucet,
drip and drop
Overflowing contempt
for this place
these people
all the world I see before me
causes this furnace
to burn so hot
I want to rain fire
blood rivers running
thru torn up streets
I want the touch
the taste
the feel of fear
smell it in the air
as the inferior ants
run scattered, scared
I am death
come to life
I could be a god
of the old fashion
punishment is
Perfection
kneel before me
you shall perish
fitingly
on your knees
