2.3710 : 6/30/15 : My Corner (Endless Axis 443/500)

My corner of this thing's
so very small
but I'm going to own it
going to cover it all
Someday soon
When this hard working day's done
I'll get a glimpse of it all
on my way to the sun
goodness gracious
all I care about now
is making the promised land
it's when not how
I've got a little thing inside me
I've been waiting to tap
call it a trim tab baby
cal it a bootstrap

2.3709 : 6/29/15 : Stark Realism (Endless Axis 442/500)

Raise shadow
too much sun to permit
bright the throne
Where the Lotus King doth sit
they called me a fantasist
but I demurred
my stark realism
was well assured
I said to the shadow
be back soon enough
Enjoy your cool silence
but your love comes so tough
If I had a million
something - I couldn't light the world
come evening
every shadow unfurled

2.3708 : 6/28/15 : Dumb Shrug (Endless Axis 441/500)

Stack this stack
higher
rally
raise the high
pie-er
never quite get
to the divy
the impoverished
the privy
So I rant
a little bit
rule the rulers
all unfit
raise my dumb shrug
to the skies
while the stack
mounts to
my eyes

2.3707 : 6/27/15 : Reverence (Endless Axis 440/500)

Mistake reverence
for a state of mind
oh I have blundered
oh I have been blind
give unto me
momentary clarity
give the dark and light aspect
momentary parity
I'll close my eyes
and put out my hand
and as to what I need
I trust you understand

what

2.3706 : 6/26/15 : Lists (Endless Axis 439/500)

Got lists coming
out of both ends
need to find
acceptance
and a new best friend
justification
valid hope
tolerance for
diminishing scope
a sunny disposition
in the face of
the whole tangle
inner rebellion
and a new secret
angle

2.3705 : 6/25/15 : Paragon (Endless Axis 438/500)

I'm also lucky
despite small means
behold the
paragon
who cooks and cleans
no mansion no
no fancy car
I've got my own
small star
as long as I can
follow it to where you are

what

2.3704 : 6/24/15 : Hut (Endless Axis 437/500)

Perceive a loop
a track a rut
wish I could
retreat
to a little hut
mark things out
at last
with pad and pen
light this
pale shadow
yes, begin again

what

2.3703 : 6/23/15 : In Hope (Endless Axis 436/500)

Oh right
that time of night
one more
in hope not spite
still counting
I can get it right

2.3702 : 6/22/15 : Roses (Endless Axis 435/500)

Smell what?
no time
modern
thought crime
all fine
long as I don't think
don't speak
don't blink

2.3700 : 6/20/15 : Permission (Endless Axis 433/500)

Should have known tonight
came with stiff competition
Will I ever feel
I've got permission
just to be
not to say
not to always
with no everyday
I passed it
off again
Somewhere behind
this coffin grin

2.3699 : 6/19/15 : The Awful Thing (Endless Axis 432/500)

Everyone
got their rhetoric on
to talk about
the awful thing
stole his ideas
from
Charlie X
what's the point
how could I sing
climb in head-
first and pull
the hole in behind
whether
ever
was a long tether
but it came out to
a devilish bind

what

2.3698 : 6/18/15 : Inside Man (Endless Axis 431/500)

Getting good cheer
exactly wrong
everyday
in every song
this piece this scrap
this dogear marker
disguise the inside man
a raver, barker
reveal the outer man
a laughing churl
oh yes I reel and roar
oh yes I whirl
I'll flow it better
with a little sleep
leave all the beat up
good cheer in a heap

2.3697 : 6/17/15 : And Now the Mob (Endless Axis 430/500)

And now the mob
rears again
you heard no sob
I'm hard
and bright as tin
Modernity
will run
its course
and damn hell
me without a horse

what

2.3696 : 6/16/15 : Dayside (Endless Axis 429/500)

Put it all together
a new day side
right now
sealed with a kiss
not a promise or vow
and let this mantra
be your mission statement
still on still up
still defy abatement
Salute the morning
back ten and five
Shot the gauntlet
emerged alive
Salute to all
that turned up right
and to that love
which smashed me into light

2.3695 : 6/15/15 : Old Play (Endless Axis 428/500)

Isn't there danger
in finding the moment great
I don't regret every
time I chose to hesitate
I should be questioning
this how hard
I know what I'm dealing
tomorrow's card
all the same tracks
fall behind the same way
full stop I'm sick of
giving the same old play

2.3694 : 6/14/15 : Predictions (Endless Axis 427/500)

A sleight of hand
did I guess your card
You were high
and the trick wasn't hard
and another there
an alternate track
one time all religious
kinda stabbed him in the back
One time I listened
heard what I wanted
the truer reading would have been
the path's dead hard
and your growth is stunted
past is past
and for present
take this learning
don't listen to predictions
and keep those
cards turning

2.3693 : 6/13/15 : Suspend (Endless Axis 426/500)

Tell me your tragedy
your dying dog
Your anti-religion
the related flog
So short so short
So coarse
So fine
this ain't the
half of it
no finish line
You don't want my
pity
I don't want
to offend
But how I wish
that I could revelate
and this sentence suspend

2.3692 : 6/12/15 : Drop (Endless Axis 425/500)

Zero balance
full stop
won't solve this
riddle
with a bass drop
raise my hand
lower my voice
pretend
pretend
It's all a choice

2.3691 : 6/11/15 : Compound (Endless Axis 424/500)

The action of
the increment
gun at my feet
tell me to dance
in wet cement
but I will turn
that beast around
and it will 
work for me
I'll run this town
declare my day
my compound
account
registers a
ray of light
a start a slim amount

2.3690 : 6/10/15 : Sincere (Endless Axis 423/500)

Try it get sincere
get softer
Rise rise above
Still keep your dreams aloft here
chip at your corner
never knowing who you'll reach
You're still on the same
random walk
we're all on the
same beach
and cynicism is cowardly
and we need you brave
and you never know
what you might be called to save

2.3689 : 6/9/15 : Irony (Endless Axis 422/500)

As such I dish it up
with excess irony
I know this much
this jack stacks up like do re mi
and it repeats
and I repeat myself again
I used to think I was
some troubador slash paladin
and the irony
does not escape me now
I used to think I was
on the scent of Tao

2.3688 : 6/8/15 : No Habit (Endless Axis 421/500)

Trying to make
no habit
refuse routine
the icing on the cake
would be to unearth
that
ancient machine
but this smoking
clanking
ancient repeater
not my finest hour
but
at least I'm no cheater

2.3687 : 6/7/15 : Super Sleek (Endless Axis 420/500)

Why not imagine it
It's all been strategy
and when the pieces
Start to fall together
Look at me Super Sleek
what now elementary
Kick back watch the sky
here comes heavy weather
I am all tooled up
by a swift ten of high adversity
woke up and saw it
call it Super Sleek university
the battery
the counterweight
Watch out now
here comes the excited state
aluded to far from
the teeming throngs
I ponder the legend
of the song of songs

2.3686 : 6/6/15 : Remembrance (Endless Axis 419/500)

What's more important
remembrance or an early bed
I would call this indifference
but I've got a weary head
So many little things
to keep the machine from foundering
a thing or or two comes together
Still wouldn't say I'm not floundering

2.3685 : 6/5/15 : Lawn (Endless Axis 418/500)

Got my blood up
try not to sleepwalk through
another day
what hell you say
they give a dollar to you
and I might call
this one
guess guess who
because it all goes
rolling on
if you let it
and you may doubt
it to your core
but I get it
get my dollar out
ready for the man
in the stands
to raise the shout
and it's enough
for getting on with
I'd say more
but I gotta
check my bandwidth

what

2.3684 : 6/4/15 : Bait (Endless Axis 417/500)

Way too late cutting bait
falling for cheap tricks
everybody's boo hoo
cranky nursing bum licks
grim down spare crown
Sweat the days to leave town
it'll get worse but okay
And you'll just want to play
It ain't much but it stacks
Maybe someday it attracts
a teacher a blessing a helping a key
maybe at last at last a jubilee

what

Friday, June 03, 2022

2.3683 : 6/3/15 : Lawn (Endless Axis 416/500)

This ring won't come off
this day won't end
and I'll regret it
I'll regret it all my friend
And how to piece out
the way from here to unknown
unimaginable dawn
Maybe just never get it
Maybe get off my damn lawn

2.3682 : 6/2/15 : Stone Cold (Endless Axis 415/500)

Look at you again the rush and the cut down
another notch aother another scotch another shutdown
What does it look like through such a cold eye
What can it fee like to be such a cold guy
To be stone cold
I name the dark mind
in your hand you hold
and the method of your cold mind
Some come out of the cold
but all leave you behind
Look at you again the bloody minded wait
they must have raised you on a cold estate
and what's running in your veins I don't want to know
But I'm pretty sure it's bitter and cold as new snow
Because you're stone cold...

what

2.3681 : 6/1/15 : Silence (Endless Axis 414/500)

Seek to silence
the chattering
sought silence
among the thoughts
battering
Once I thought
the clutter meant a lot
Once I thought
Some high host sent the lot
Seek silence
only one way I know
it's not reliable
and I always
hate to go
