The world is falling through the panes of a thousand shattered glasses
And wisps of beauty leak between the cracks And everything I find I see is just another piece And the image I try to build won’t coalesce If I try too hard, I cut my fingers If I let it pass, I slip through as well And find myself falling through the pains of a thousand shattered dreams Where wisps of beauty linger instead of die But still all I find are only pieces And I can only see echoes in the fog So grow up and throw down and join me on my journey Escape the solace of solitude Together, we are alone So on a day of perfect sorrow we shall leave the hall of dreams And follow the ancient call of mortality’s horn Children of the Day and Night - follow! And we’ll fall through with joy instead of pain

"Serenity"
We fought this war, man by man, We took a stand to keep this land... We fought this war so valiantly, In the battle of Serenity. The enemies came, wave by wave, We shot them down, now they're in graves, We shouted "You can't take this land from me, We live here in Serenity..." The battle raged as the days wore on, They wouldn't give up 'til we were gone... There was no end that we could see, In the battle of Serenity... Supplies were low, but we stayed strong, We knew that they wouldn't be here long... Soon we would begin to breathe The clean air of Serenity... Their flags went down, the battle won, Their war was lost, and they were done... And that's how this all came to be, In this place called Serenity.

Knock them down
Grasping at thorns Bleeding hands claspse Their last revenge Keep them down Cut off from every opening Desperatly finding a weak point Something that keeps you going Push them down Simple little pleasures Lies, deceit, and anger Jealousies and envies together Kick them down Any arrows, any blade Anyway to scratch them Obsession with the target Still not down Wild rage within you Keeps yourself from living It is your eye that sees nothing else ....and keeps you standing there. |

Here's one for all you band geeks out there: The "Infleuenced" artist What is it that those old proverbs say, that every dog will have its day? So do the band directors say, that every band member shall play! *not funny unless you have been in band* -I have more which I will post later! As in the future...As in as soon as i fine tune my next one!

the keyboard is my instrument
I just realized, just now as pens or swords of men before I live through this tool such a funny thing to be my destiny oddly shaped and overlooked cunningly inobtrusive its a pass to a realm of thought where material is nothing where all the words ever writ can fit within a thimble grey as clouds on rainy days the keys are all so regular just another piece of humanity not given its due respect the things I love its now counts amongst from this moment on I will never forsake my keyboard |

Chicken chicken in a pot
How it got there I know not Do you live in Spain? Getting there is such a pain By whom do you ask It's the one next to the mask Being the only one There can be only none Ham is a tasty treat Cow is also a meat Am I here for love Check on the shelf above Fry your food in a pan You will be my number one fan Beg of you to help each other out Just don't end up in a bout Complete randomness is really fun This is where I say "I am done."

"The last one of it's kind"
The last one of it's kind It is a sight to behold Disappears time to time It never becomes old You don't see it Or go near it You just feel it Running through you Like liquid gold... Makes the heart go fast Makes the minutes crawl past Stirs the imagination to run free Immobilizes you on its wild spree Too much and it's bad Too little and it's sad It doesn't show itself out of fear This, the last time it should be here Over there, last look The final breath Life it has took The final death |

Fungus Among Us

I wrote this one awhile ago and it's pretty random, but I felt like posting it, so here it is.
German Potato Salad: A dog with a candy cane A hamster in the sky An english muffin dancing And a dandi-lion fly A cock roach in my milkshake Nail polish in the air A trumpet in my muffin And an almond pumpkin pear A dragon flower cutip A bumble beed fried egg A chocolate checkered lightbulb And a lemon's lost it's leg A purple waxed horned lollipop A belly button tree A tomato ball and chain wasp And a cinnamon toe nailed flea!

"Surreal"
The past seems so unreal Contemplative and surreal You look back and remember Some memories painful… …and some so tender Random thoughts still conflict Mistakes or salvation, change inflict Hide away what was, close your eyes You will not look back to that time …and that person you despise Burying it down, wash yourself clean You will forget yesterday, what has been Everyone can start over, and better yet Your eyes are bright with the sun’s rays ….but your cheeks are strangely wet. Keep that picture, keep that charm Keep it locked tight, comes no harm Or is that your soul you hold so tight Your back is to the sun once again ….as your face turns to the night Can’t forget, can’t forgive Can’t go back, can’t go live Standing at such a crossroad Your body is pale and warm ….but your heart is stone cold. |
