I came out of the static
with her knives stuck in my hands
left my old self dead and buried
with a gun stuck in the sand
in my heart you carved your daggers
and the streets ran cold and red
if I don't carry you you'll stagger
is the last thing that you said
hear my foot steps catch and stutter
in the back she held my hand
found the alley that she stranded
and I found him as a friend
on the day she killed november
i hadnt seen her in years
her face it never changes
her heart is changing gears
i hope luke arnold wakes up tomorrow and remembers
that we're starting a hip hop project cause ive already started writing...

white noise at the end of the world.
11.06.2008
monsters in the city
and the streetlights
are out.
we felt the noise around
each corner, begging us
to find it; the walls
were made of braille
and the bricks made
signposts in broken
arrows; the mortar
weak with names
written with bullets.
even the rooftops left us vulnerable.
a message written
in morse code, paint
on our hands where
we told our story.
we never found the way out.

"I'll bury you in this story."
i have weird shapes
and jagged stones
in my mouth that
tell sleepy stories
while swimming
through last nights
noir dialogue; some
conversations are
better had during the day.
10.05.2008
conversations in pattern.
the jawbone sat still
anonymously, speaking
in half a whisper.
come to grips it said
the sunlight will hide for months
your time will end soon.
concrete holds us both
and our conversations are
stunted like cold breaths.

out of sorts.
I dread the changing of the seasons
four times a year I feel out of place
in my own skin, as my body gets used
to another climate in which it does
not feel like it belongs at all. I am a
stranger to this land, when fall skips
a beat and winter arrives unannounced
rudely like a drunken houseguest; If I
could I think I would hibernate like a bear.

writing on the walls
I lose words sometimes
in her eyes explanation
for the absence of our
second natures;
she says we are all just
creatures of habit in our
darkest thoughts, coming undone.
I left the days out of order
and hoped you could
reassemble the calender
in your hearts native tongue.
