Poet Introduction
Jesus said it best in the moments after he died on his feet so I'll not even try re-create that particular oration
kiss the bride
hand me my shotgun bride
that i may draw from her power
and sit by the fire of the navaho
to watch the dancing spirits
enter the chanting medicine man
with staff of feather and rattle
pointing to the lone eagle above
his face cracked with wisdom
one more kiss to keep the peace
and run barefoot with the brave
who chase down the mighty bison
where there are no frontiers
and one last kiss for the tools ...

and run barefoot with the brave
who chase down the mighty bison
where there are no frontiers

youth in aisa
there you lie all tubes and wires
cheeks white eyes sunk hair gone
what your eyes are begging of me
sends cold shivers radiating
could i really love you to death
a feeling of divinity becomes me
as i hold your life in my power
when you see the feathers come
you exhale with huge relief
and i press down soft at first
then taken, i exert full pressure
grateful for every passing movement
less intense with each given moment
...

the drowning of mrs sippy
it came silent first like a sneakered thief
rolling towards a deathlycrescendo
consuming all without prejudice
a force unstoppable
Mrs Sippy throws her hands skyward
memories of the winds still red raw
the cries of her children tangible
again...theabsenceof saints
the water thick with its stolen loot
rises around her fragile feet
attempting to sweep her
away to oblivion

the cries of her children tangible

the water thick with its stolen loot
rises around her fragile feet
attempting to sweep her

enough is enough
would it be enough for me to fade away
or must i nail myself to the neon sign
constructed by your indifference
fastened by intolerance
it will never suffice just to love you
i cant even begin to satiate
your appetite for sorrow
or thirst for blood
or must i nail myself to the neon sign
constructed by your indifference

it will never suffice just to love you
i cant even begin to satiate

solo and so low
once again i find myself alone
half dressed unshaven falling down
my chemical in-balance stretched
i am poles apart
your parting words still echo
reverberating your callous speak
your memory a cilice
cutting ever deeper with time
your chick flicks stacked neatly
mock me with romantic ideals
their tales of happy endings
rub salt sparingly
and so begin the voices
definite and to the point
cold and unrelenting
without reservation

if this is your reality i'm glad i'm away with the fairy's
i awoke and saw what i was missing
the world,a breeding ground for elitist insanity
waging their war on the inferior
their sticky hands reaching for fool's gold
lands plundered for their liquid power
under the guise of democracy
and the watchful eye of the holy see
is blinded by his past life
i see nature fighting for her land
her oceans, unrelenting battering rams
her winds, angry accusations
she crumbles cities to make her point
lady...

countless,...nameless
And my eyes
clouded by tears
rested on the black plumes
The collective silence
deafening to hear
These stars are cross hairs
these stripes condemn
how long before it's I
who has ridden on deaths train
might shower with the reaper
or feed those snarling dogs
clouded by tears
rested on the black plumes
The collective silence
deafening to hear
These stars are cross hairs
these stripes condemn
how long before it's I
who has ridden on deaths train
might shower with the reaper
or feed those snarling dogs

A love lost
Darkness has fallen here
the twisted humour of love, laughs
outside i bid fond farewells
inside i am dying.
The cold reality of love lost
final in its deliverance
will enslave me to your memory
and sentance me to solitude
Darkness has fallen here
i step reluctantly to its cover
emptiness has taken root
seeking out my feelings
Soon i will be oblique
loveless without pain or passion
a mere existance in life
cynical of all things good

incantation of the dammed
we are the quiet people,lost in a vast maze of fire
hunger is the least of our problems
pain greater than you can ever conjure
possesses us.
hunted by the righteous and ignorant
we toil endlessly for refuge
haunted by the nightmares of reality
we stay numb
gone are gratitude and niceties into the abbyss
our people shout out loud for the reaper
death throws forth her loving arms
no one will miss us
hunger is the least of our problems
pain greater than you can ever conjure
possesses us.
hunted by the righteous and ignorant
we toil endlessly for refuge
haunted by the nightmares of reality
we stay numb
gone are gratitude and niceties into the abbyss
our people shout out loud for the reaper
death throws forth her loving arms
no one will miss us

corruption of the masses &
like predators they watch and wait
strays call, strays fall.
the lonely seek divine solace
corruption of the masses
in the cloth of peace they salivate
wide eyed,ruthless minds.
with helpless lambs they fornicate
slaughtered at the alter
(can you tell who it is yet?)
strays call, strays fall.
the lonely seek divine solace
corruption of the masses
in the cloth of peace they salivate
wide eyed,ruthless minds.
with helpless lambs they fornicate
slaughtered at the alter

rememberance
I thought of you again in slumber
Felt your presence in my chamber
A fleeting glimps of your placid face
The pain of love
Your memory still all consuming
Bright eyes dancing
Your smile entrancing
The pain of loss
Felt your presence in my chamber
A fleeting glimps of your placid face
The pain of love
Your memory still all consuming
Bright eyes dancing
Your smile entrancing
The pain of loss

confessions
escape me
lest my curse envelops you
solomon posseses my touch
it will surly strike you
escape me
my twisted heart is infectious
it will rape your mind
it will blacken your soul
escape me
escape me
HOLD me
lest my curse envelops you
solomon posseses my touch
it will surly strike you
escape me
my twisted heart is infectious
it will rape your mind
it will blacken your soul
escape me
escape me
HOLD me
