2.3680 : 5/31/15 : Rubicon (Endless Axis 413/500)

Keep crossing these Rubicons

without meaning to

or knowing it

Well no for truth

I meant it well enough

but how was I to know

when I kept blowing it

And it doesn't come

with much satisfaction

I take what I can get

becaues you're playing

the long game now

and it's a promise not a bet

what

2.3679 : 5/30/15 : That Vinegar (Endless Axis 412/500)

Did I dream again

of old vices

at least I dream them with

the same prices

And wake mulling

Your last hour

today that vinegar

comes very sour

try to dial in the

everyday without habit

try to take the big world

little rabbit

straighten up

Walk it anew

do you see it

guess I hope you do

what

2.3678 : 5/29/15 : Toll (Endless Axis 411/500)

What's this usual

rigamarole

the old familiar

hell bell toll

What else to say

been there too

and hating being back

through and through

I groan and toss

the cycle dismal

the toll it takes

no entry abysmal

what

2.3677 : 5/28/15 : Flip Side (Endless Axis 410/500)

Format used to be simple

two dimensional always had a flip side

a place to turn it over

You knew where to change the ride

now it's always on demand

the shuffle the continuous play

oh I'd rather be on the flip side today

Ah the retro kick only ever

Works a little

every medium bows

every jot and dittle

but I'm so sick of the endless glide

and I just want to make it

a flip side

I used to think it was

the smash cut Jack move

I used to think I had

a whole lot to prove

what's the end of a first half

Sound like

not quite there yet

but it's a short hike

noq

what

2.3676 : 5/27/15 : Creeps (Endless Axis 409/500)

Bust up from the start

I knew it wasn't for the faint of heart

The try again getting pretty stale

While my mission creeps in the face of travail

A list here and a list there

One unwritten describes a pear

that's the shape of the going of the best laid

What choice but to drink the Later-Ade

Later the song the book the masterpiece

Later travel, charity, the fight for peace

What creeps out of the modern jungle

a whole lotta unexpected mission to bungle

And then a pin in it and back to scrum

Got to do what's to do from here to Kingdom Come

and try to find the moment and a positive vibe

pending a signal from my post-ismic tribe

my imaginary million distributed freak

more I don't know so thereof I don't speak

Call it a tall tale about hope

all it a course correction call it a trope

what

2.3675 : 5/26/15 : Fake Means (Endless Axis 408/500)

Try in a minute

to articulate

these things

I must not accommodate

these screens

false means

Promising to pay later

for foolish things

base butter

for the battery

and all dark thought

that just

tears down on me

what

2.3674 : 5/25/15 : Don't Call It (Endless Axis 407/500)

No clue

where I'm at

in this match

but oh I'm tired

the sad refrain

the book of days

it sired

don't call it a fight

Don't call it a fight

I don't know

what I'm doing

but it isn't that

I'll meet you next

On my true home turf

you better watch

While I establish my habitat

don't cal it a fight

it was never fair

was it Stretch

hey how's the air up there

If I pass back here

On the journey down

You'll know me then

by the golden crown

what

2.3673 : 5/24/15 : Crack It (Endless Axis 406/500)

Blah blah blah

and who's listening

another bright

pointless

dream glistening

waiting for me

to crack that nut

I've never yet

but

but but but

what

2.3672 : 5/23/15 : Unconditional Love (Endless Axis 405/500)

When will I ever get it

it's just the moment

and unconditional love

doesn't matter

another scratch-off failed me

doesn't matter

anything below above

no reference, no system

no rules at all

take me back to a full moment

pause height smoke thrall

what

2.3671 : 5/22/15 : Turned Out (Endless Axis 404/500)

Every expectation

turned out like a pocket

no matter how mean

got to grasp got to

rock it

I hate to think it

but push on the same

turned out

fight ready

still seems a shame

like there should be

some ready berth

someplace carved

my shape on this earth

no matter how I shift

my patterns through

it keep coming up

the same skew

what

2.3670 : 5/21/15 : Cast (Endless Axis 403/500)

Maybe a bouillon

a cube of salt

a little sugar

if not hey my fault

hell if I know

Just what I just cast

it's always now

now's always turning past

what

2.3669 : 5/20/15 : Well (Endless Axis 402/500)

This well is feeling dry

I've sure thought it before

and then yet found again

There was a little more

Said inexhaustible

could there be such a thing

the more it's used it's said

the more the great horn brings

dug with the hands alone

no metaphor just facts

So lay another line

See how it all reacts

A dark dream I recall

patterns a prison cage

I'd tell you of those times

but I'd reveal my age

what

2.3668 : 5/19/15 : Pre-Slack (Endless Axis 401/500)

Retract

the pre-slack tact

hardly a syllable

to react

I wanted the

lottery

feared what would

be shown to me

but I had to

Open the throttle

and growl

and let my fearful

freak loose

on the prowl

what

2.3667 : 5/18/15 : Cloud (Endless Axis 400/500)

Does it end

on a sunny note

no cloud to

grasp at my throat

bright century

four of five

salute the sun

and any left alive

what

2.3666 : 5/17/15 : Dashed (Endless Axis 399/500)

Every tunnel

every passage beneath

all five thousand

iffy songs

is how I cut my teeth

I felt the

killing of it

coming on

dashed on the

rocks

and wrung out

like a gong

what

2.3665 : 5/16/15 : Tracks (Endless Axis 398/500)

Many directions

little motive force

felt myself on tracks before

still wonder at the source

that keeps me twisting

unsatisfied

I knew I dreamed the old man's

coughing for he surely died

and how do these strange dreams

connect to the poison of tracks

both darkly leading

to some cataracts

what

2.3664 : 5/15/15 : Peak (Endless Axis 397/500)

Not feeling it

the light yet so clearly there

Someday someday

I'll know that I'm

nearly there

and maybe

not speak of it

and maybe

beyond

another peak summit

what

2.3663 : 5/14/15 : Though Dim (Endless Axis 396/500)

Resist the

gloomy urge

to dwell on

gloomy thinking

Still lives the spark

Still lives the flame

though dim

unsteady blinking

not put upon

a pedestal

not shirking

work's requirement

but still

here feeling strangely young

and no thought

for the retirement

what

2.3662 : 5/13/15 : My Back (Endless Axis 395/500)

Nothing else today

but to briefly praise

what I knocked

off my back

Wave that stick around

take shots about the crown

if you don't like it

how about the other track

Curl to be straight

I spring back from the weight

free and lighter

worth a toast

lost track of days

doesn't matter still pays

I might just recorporate

old gumption's ghost

what

2.3661 : 5/12/15 : Routine (Endless Axis 394/500)

All the routine hounds

I thought to emulate

And how I end up

and with what on the plate

dished it up

fastball

curveball

knuckle

Wondering at last

if this is where

I start to buckle

what

2.3660 : 5/11/15 : Self Hate (Endless Axis 393/500)

Is the worst thing

the self hate

or the no time

halfway to dead

or so

call this prime

it's all a

cliché

but I'm stuck with it

not really

but I'm stubborn

So I'm gonna

fuck with it

what

2.3659 : 5/10/15 : Identity (Endless Axis 392/500)

Make progress

interrogate identity

tough a high bar

few get far in I see

A lot of surface to scratch

hard hard to crack the shell

that ain't the half of it

but it'd be a tale to tell

what

2.3658 : 5/9/15 : Laminates (Endless Axis 391/500)

Precious little underneath

this primate dance

strip away the laminates

reveal a dim chance

Somewhere in the old books

Out of favor so unhip

maybe at least plug a few

holes in a slowly sinking ship

maybe a hundred years

maybe even five

hell either way at all

no chance at all we're alive

hell in the wide world of words

what chance a scrap of this survives

So someone please tell me

Why the hell I strive strive strive

what

2.3657 : 5/8/15 : Coming Out (Endless Axis 390/500)

I ate this battery

now guess what's

coming out

double header

big release

not even what

the real show's

about

might guess it

glows on contact

might guess it

vibrates man

it'll find some

partisans

My brother true

my good friend Dan

It'll sink a silent

submarine on

battery

It'll get you

everywhere

Psyche

it'll come one

shattery

what

2.3656 : 5/7/15 : A Little (Endless Axis 389/500)

Show a little

here and there

just the highlights

a patch of light on bare

skin, a quiet place

retreat, rest

and nothing

to get off my chest

what

2.3655 : 5/6/15 : Permissible (Endless Axis 388/500)

What's possible

whats permissible

who wants to know

Who thinks I would kiss and tell

I got so permissive

I got so laid back

As what could be deemed

possible began to stack

what

2.3654 : 5/5/15 : Something Wonderful (Endless Axis 387/500)

Something wonderful

remember wonder sort of

no admission price

no nasty portal requiring a short shove

effortless

practically automatic

I spooled out reels

like psychedelic somatic

and the currency I

cooked

turned on a million lights

all started with something

wonderful delights

what

2.3653 : 5/4/15 : Kneel and Fold (Endless Axis 386/500)

Am I supposed

to believe in that bell

who's ringing mine

who believes in mine

tell me it's not like

casting a spell

just tell me there's

an end to all the incline

I kneel and fold

just like I buy it all

Breathe not a hint

versus the protocol

I try to fake

but I'm no actor

I wear my bitter heart

out for all to see

just hope for some relief

I didn't factor

swear next time

to stick to pleasantry

what

2.3652 : 5/3/15 : Search the Sky (Endless Axis 385/500)

Just apply a frame

the Sunday box

pews just the same

now something looser

ceilings high

Still I still I

Search the sky

Sought for traces

secret signs

Some called

superstitious anodynes

sought techniques

to amplify

still and yet

I search the sky

what

2.3651 : 5/2/15 : Slung (Endless Axis 384/500)

Enough got slung

I wasn't having none

more so ditch it

Someday probably switch it

What's it even mean

this senseless fast machine

if I'm a cog still do my best

For now at least

be a cog at rest

what

2.3650 : 5/1/15 : Restless (Endless Axis 383/500)

Whatever restless impulse

smooth away every ripple and peak

A flat space may lack excitement

but it's a place to let the moment speak

maybe I've been revolving on this point

the positive plane coming back around

Maybe my restless hour is falling

maybe at last I get to go to ground

what
