Satellite fixtures
Promising an afterlife
Try to let go
Take the time to really know
Garden with Petunia
I’d go back to there
Anywhere you’re walking
Isn’t anywhere I’d rather be
In the garden I ran
Til I settled in settling sand
Garden with Petunia,
I’d go back to there forever
Save your warm breath
Winter’s glass eyes
Looking forward to the
Coldest times

The Queue

Cold hands
Dim lights
Only God would realize
The safety of the queue
goes on and on and on
Cold hands
Lip lines
I’ll gladly dim the street lights
The safety of the room
Fades in and out again
Safe lens
Dim lights
Pray to God to realize
No one’s coming back
One time
Two hands
Holy trinity amends
Follow queue
Like cells divide
So don’t I
What once was promised
Is unraveled and untied
If I could only show you the way
You wouldn’t be surprised
that I hide my face
(face the facts, the truth is hard to find)
I hadn’t noticed
sparks from your eyes
It made sense
to fall back
and leave them behind
An endless moment
when I think I tried
To take steps
to process
the slow test of time
Like cells divide
So don’t I
Whenever we face the facts
The truth is hard to find

Serpent

Lies!
A serpent’s tongue and eyes
In every measured moment
fear to my surprise
What could it mean?
These lucid dreams
Wake me
In every photograph
Burned out
I seethe with doubt
But I’ve seen the ocean floor
When I see the forest for the trees
I’ll see the forest floor
Again, I see the trees
Again, I see the floor
I face a rigid fall from grace
Every face
Every consequence
The searing fear again
the stabbing pain again
With every photograph
Burned up
Til I see the forest for the trees
I’m filled with doubt
Weave through
Silver moon
Leave me out cold
We might retry ocean side
only reason I’m cold at night

Long-Drawn Day

Rain falls
Yeah, it’s always streaming
Dweller in a sanctuary
After a long-drawn day
And you had it made
I’m left standing
In due time
When it’s warm outside
I’ll walk unafraid
Into Lilac petals wilting at my feet
I want to seem indifferent honestly
Bright eyes
Tough to take the screaming
Songbirds wasting your life
And you had it made
Then you walked away
I’m left standing
In due time
When it’s warm outside
I’ll walk unafraid
Into lilac petals
