Opium Notes
I.
Contented
and avoiding work
in this bare bones
Concrete park (the city)
warmness
and smallness
Contentment resides here
But so does great loss
of years of potential greatness
and grandeur
but then there is still
Contentment
. . .
II.
I prayed for thee
Erotic ritual
You had vanished
precious poppy
The addiction
is always in mind
The mind of others
usually pushing me further
Companion in...

Sometimes Losing Touch
When I look for that warm environment
To "get out of the train while it is still moving"
To feel something
To be apart of a great sea of ideas
and people
seen or unseen
The request to live life w/ one's own narrative
To feel a sense of poignancy
To increase ones dopamine levels
naturally and sub-naturally
if living is "a horizontal fall"
should I not live in such a great play as ones
own madness creates?
Qoutes from Jean Cocteau

Pride and Prejudice
Is the objective observeillance of perspective reality
An individual experience?
Is subjectivity a universal experience?
Disillusionment is so easy
Hypnosis takes no effort
the mind seeks it.
To live a lifestyle of blended reality & imagination
Is the real way to kick it
We need colours baby
and celebrations to local cultural representations of
Joy,Rebirth, or what is most important...
Death, be far and away
Lead me into the mountains of Zion...

She's Hip
Her subtle smile
Direct eye contact
A quiet twinkle
Then the advice:
" If you dry the pods,
you can access the seeds..."
This, and the extra pod she gave me,
leads me to believe
She knows what's up

A Woman
A Woman
is like a mirage...
They always seem to be
everything you desire
Always out of reach
But upon closer inspection
She's just another Siren

Seed Tea
I just recently drank seed tea
Bitter and nearly immediate
And as this new feeling devirgins me
Fantasy and expectation
seem silly
A slight tickling in my brain
A slight wave of euphoria
definite relaxation

Various Women Whom I Am in a Non-sexual Relationship With
When was the last time we escaped our boxes?
Domes of security
warm blankets
I ask you to be naked
Only true beauty amuses me
When you were too young you looked far but had
no reach
the honest claims of an innocent young girl
who's passionate interest but exceeds
our grasp
of each other
a flurry of blurring colours fly by
as we sit at a million miles per hour
your wedding ring and blue hair
your creamy skin through flip on shoes, a spirit older than age;
a ghost reverie that lurks in death...

Words & Sweet Lies
Words & sweet lies
which echo inside of us
The mystery of language has long since gone
The remains of which
are tossed around like old bones
by drunks, politicians
Ends to a mean
They can give (temporary) closer and
space between our emotions
Should we all lie for our excuse to speak?

Return
Return to the eternal sun
Cosmos forever at peace
Swirling, turning and floating
Forever
Return to the eternal she said
You will find peace there
Madness

Moments That Die
Moments that die in your eyes
It's the thing's you do that inspire me
to cover you w/ my infatuation...
A madman I must be
to have a heart such as this.

Lifecycles
My mind seems to exceed
my body both in
ambition
ability
as well as strength
At every attempt to be
responsible and active
(whatever responsibility is worth)
Exercising
I always come w/in the grasp of health
only to be reminded of my brash egotism
to think I could
. . .
One is left little mystery
as to a reason to find a
fascination w/ opium.
The word itself like a climax
that adds tense, lustful anticipation
to it's...
