- Forget Who We Are
i can't stand standing here like this and i can't take taking any of this talk serious. i can't stand standing here like this and i can't take taking any of your talk serious. swimming eyes and spitting whys splitting ties we realize. missed kisses blown through blue night air. walking you home with a bottle of boones between us. we're trying so hard to forget who we are.
- In The Clear
canine exhales my steam faced spit bath. tippy toed. noses nippy cold touch. i'm looking up through gnarling gashers through drooley jowls peering into my peer. canine ate seven sick five year olds. canine ate seven sick five year olds. baretoothed brawls lost. what they unmindedly kick. we shrug and barely bearhug. grapple down to the ground. it's the same ground grounding us. the same ground grounding those that ground us. a b c d e f g h i j k lost. time to move on they say. "i'm sorry, but you gotta go." i'm hoping once i'm a big kid and i look down to the ground it'll seem further away. canine ate seven sick five year olds. canine ate seven sick five year olds.
- Oh Messy Life
Fire is motion
Work is repetition
This is my document
We are all all we've done
we are all all we've done
we are all all we've done
we are all all defenses.

Catholic bad boy in a good boy suit, Central Illinois, 1962. Red angry already, hasn't even met me yet. Just do what's just to do, gonna gotta go on and get a lotta. What I'm doing here, what I'm doing, what I am? Disconnected, locked out, a fuzzy melted chocolate bar in your pocket. I inherited hard boiled eyes. It's like you finally realize how lucky you really are to have had a few great heartbreaks.
- Ooh Do I Love You
Mud; Muddy slush; Slushy lawn
In the inbetween of the winter and spring and the lawn's long gone
People walking
Lotsa people walking over the life in the mud
On the sidewalk under my crawl
Mud bubbles pop and burst breath into the air
Where's the inbetween if everyone's a me?
- Puddle Splashers
we're busy touching till we're dizzy stupid. i am a puppy. a balloon and a happy accident. missed she teaching me myths mistold. hold me here dearest and turn me golden. and i watched you holding up the sun. i remember her saying, "this whole world is a waste of my time." and all i could say is, "i wish i had something to say." but we'll stand still long enough the sun will move around us. you can't look at the sky without looking right through it.
- Troubled by Insects
His lips smack. A global splendor of gluttony. He's got a smile like he was born to be president. You ask about politics and I answer about people. Let's spit for territories, split up the not enough to go around. Just let me keep all these wants I need. I'll do whatever you want me to. I'll do anything. You present your presence like a grabby gift day presents. We all suck on your bloated white bread fill, but I'm still always starving. You ask about people and I tell you we're all stuck on the inside. I'm doing all you told me, get your world off my back. I've been stuffed fat and pounded fat. I've shrunken it, I've sunk in it, I've drowned in all I've found in it.
