Eyes to See

9/25/12

There is no place for things I wish secret

Only after death could free a starved spirit

To have and not to hold, 

To lose is now to gain

And everything with wings to burn

In our fire must to wane

I want you pale and I want you pure

I want to be near you forevermore

I wish for stars deployed

Upon my searching, blackened mind

And everything that breathes and grows

With the life I cannot find

For the truth is everywhere within

The lives of the living and those who have been

It depends upon just one thing

When your interest conflicts with mine

And you haven't got the time

I'll take my endorphins and learn to be

One who trains eyes to see

Zone

9/20/12

Sheila says she wants to be a star,

But they aren't stars that make the sky bright

The sky is filled with eyes at night, 

And the way to undo their infinite gaze. 

What lays upon our ending days,

Search for souls to burn and decay

There to release orphaned slave,

Christ is crucified, one death for infinity, 

But the way to Heaven is ever changing

There is another way to the place I must stay

I have a hunch and a broken blade

 Chase after shadows their secrets forbade

An eternal forecast will win our hate

And all of our reasons, kept or forsaken,

Will turn the wheels, day after day 

Encircle the stars, the eyes we create

The mind of our young trained for rape

Crucifixion

9/15/12

Highs and lows, lows and highs

Upon the spectrum, on opposite sides

Hands of clockwork, tower telling time

Predict the course, this universe of mine

It tells the weather of a broken war

I've memorized it backwards

But tell me once more

Turn from old right into newly wrong

I want to return

But I've stayed here too long

I don't know if there's Heaven above

But I'll carry this cross like the final thread

I will carry it always for light and love

I see from the side, the lust of war

A crown of thorns, 

I need nothing more 

Birds of Prey

9/13/12

Birds of prey 

Like sharpened daggers

Will find decay

With the stink of gore

Tear the flesh we bore

On out in numbers

With talons and beak

Like sitting ducks

Come take your meat

Come drink your blood

Young

9/13/12

Make me young again

In one perfect moment

Take me with you

If you actually can

Send me to when

I believed in man

Old

9/13/12

The arms of my mind

Reach the ghosts of the past

As old paths unwind

And lead me home at last.

My heart throbbing sorrow

And turned black with wrath

You know what I need

On your flesh I can feed

But you keep that which I must confess

I was wrong to give my soul to rest

Into your cold and dead caress

Stab the Sleeper Where He Sleeps

9/7/12

There seems to be

A malicious force

With the chemicals to torch houses

The fire to find and seek

a path descending from hell

They will find the deserter

They will cut legs from beneath

Wait the smell of his sleep
Wake the death of mine.

It seems there is

As when there was choice

An open mouth, like open void

To find her trail 

To be her boy

To scratch through the nails

That hold everything in place
Everything that moves
 And sleeps must wake

The subconscious deeds
Found forever beneath

Legs and feet,
Accomplished fall

I cry tears

In the glowing starless hall

Through the eye of the window

Into the zero of nowhere

We can touch each other

We can never stay long

But they will stamp out organs

Cut legs from from the floor

Just this once, it will be alright

Here in the glowing ends of night

Just look into his eyes so sleepy

And stab the sleeper where he sleeps

-Stab him deeply

Allegiance

9/7/12

They trained you in their infantry

They took your eyes

When you look they see

Ghosts

9/7/12

I feel your pulse

I know you're here 

Cold as a ghost 

I'm want to feel

No dreams tonight

To fill my mind

Lone the hollowness 

In darkness we're blind,

 Broken, torn is my form

Earned from a past forlorn 

I can feel your pulse

I can breathe your hair
I need your life
I know you're there.
