America Here I Am

America here I am
Old me drifting away to a dirty plan
Let me hold myself between my knees

The acrid candor grows
And the proud seek gilded goals

A tried minority screams out loud
As the shelters run down

The feeble minded die
In combat boots, but some are still alive

No one seems to care who they are
As they meter justice weighted by carnal tar

Bloody scabs dot the land
Forgotten soldiers fearless as they stand
America let me hold myself between my knees

Children grow up on the streets
Homeless and the meek grow week

Times are rough but it’s the revival
And fuck I’m sick (of the leveraged bible)

Clergy preaches to the strong
Just don’t forgot to hold on

You vomitous foul gut wrenching abomination.
Feckless imperialist masterpiece of inexcusable stagnation
America, let me hold myself between my knees

Requisition

Indeed I am also tempted to stare,
but it appears that there is nothing there.
nothing that I should see.
Everything else is unfortunately beneath me.

I climbed the tree but hope had left
there was nothing there.
I looked back down but the ground had gone
alas I wish I had my death.

POEM #3 (Blue Musk)

For he is my beloved queen,
A golden light in dreams serene.

Yet above his knees I dare not stare,
Admiring soft, white ankles fair.

It is his eyes that warm the sun,
but of that light, my eyes see none.

My eyes see none, my body lies cold,
A frozen gray mist, a broken clay mold.

POEM #2 (The Secret Crimes of J.H. Murray)

How 'bout it?
You and me, in a tree.
Flipitty-flop, watch me drop.

A liar on a branch,
A liar all his life.

Let it rot in your heart until you die.

Written while listening to intro of "Andy, You're a Star"

Don’t ever hate me bc of what I did...
Don’t ever love me bc of who I am.

I have just done what I needed to do to say...
To say that I wasn’t here for you.
And now I’m sorry.

You wanted to know what it was all about...
We grew up and left the shed door
swinging on rusty hinges.

Hold me tightly bc he’s coming back!

Don’t ever regret it.
Don’t ever regret it.

That’s the life we lived and we didn’t mean nothing but what we said...

And hold me now. Now cuz I think I’m dead.
