Brain waves crash
against the rocks my skull has left behind
making sediments to drip into my eyes
becoming love, I go blind.
I hallucinate this universe hence-forth
my bed is roses with candy corn thorns
I'm adorned with linen and gold
I step up with chest out, feeling bold
but my vocal chords are timid
tongue and lips atrophic from introspection
stealing work from the verbal sentence
I'm ashamed of all the thoughts that I
have slain. This is my penance
For rotting in flames
I play your games in hopes
of making you remember my name
if not my actions or my face
if not my voice, maybe a taste.
In your mouth I've placed the
I am not the pirate you're looking for
This beard is a prosthetic,
This hook is just a prop,
This hat is glued onto my head
And this is sot my frock.
The sword and pistol by my side
Are, neither of them, real.
I've never seen a sailing ship
That I wanted to steal
I am no pirate.

A month ago I ate a turkey and a chair while sleeping in the warm

Ghost Town Lullaby:unfinished:
Oh yes, we'll try
To procure the most from this midsummer sky.
As the night falls we dream of the days long gone by
And the stars and the moon sing a quiet ghost town lullaby.
The stores are closed
Shall we open the windows of stories once told
of the nights where the cowboys and princesses ride
While the stars and the moon sang a quiet ghost town lullaby?
