2.4015 : 4/30/16 : Endurance

If I could make

an endurance

event

how long would it

take to catch up

how happy

I'd be to reach

to stretch up

and try to

snatch

that wisp

the essence of days

how truly would

I voice my

thanks and praise

what

2.4014 : 4/29/16 : Bare

Better with barely

a thought to spare

no future

no strategy

Palette bare

only if I could

dwell in this

neutral land

my exit hence

a paradox

you'll never understand

what

2.4013 : 4/28/16 : Jag

hardly strength

to express

jag jag jag

won't do nothing

but sneer

and slag

what

2.4012 : 4/27/16 : Flight

All things are made of flight

all variance is density

hail the lenses focusing time

remote in space hid in immensity

So is transmuted each desire

and I no longer know my own mind

poison seethes just underneath

my vampire teeth just pierced the rind

I envy the ones I put in place

I covet their clarity and call

a million cash and a thousand week vacation

got no answer to what if I won it all

beams cross at neither art nor science

heaped and fettered in the danse mundane

hey newest saint blow a kiss back

this acolyte is bowing in this rain

what

2.4011 : 4/26/16 : Battlefield

Rejoin the battlefield

half willing

dragged along

another 180 degrees

wasted

trolling this

digital song tra bong

painted up

knucklebones

go all the way bush

Waiting for a mission

getting softer

now the lethal push

what

2.4010 : 4/25/16 : Match

Trying to find the match

to strike

light this pile up

dope like an

electric bike

and hitch a smile up

it's easy riding

a friendly lie

and I'll meet a

holy match up

in every cast die

what

2.4009 : 4/24/16 : Zappy

Sometimes get zappy

I wrap it up all snappy

You know it ain't no mystery

Yeah first fan I service is me

what

2.4008 : 4/23/16 : Biggest Sword

Shake my stupid puny pointless fist

at King Entropy

Writing his hymn book for him

My own one true enemy

Reapers reap and scrapers scrape

Counters like me count up

bad seeds in my landscape

Today's fortune no guts no gusto

Only teacher waiting for me

Is Professor Bust-o

Back-paddle from that lesson

with all my strength

hoist up the mud-mixer's lot

sure, or any such length

Pursued no interest: so no talents

to lose for the Lord

Did you expect more from us

in the shadow of the biggest sword

what

2.4007 : 4/22/16 : At the Dust

Random disappointment

hardly think you could surprise

little things I write larger

as I narrow my eyes

at the dust in the way the winds blow

but at least I needn't put on a show

what

2.4006 : 4/21/16 : Spin

What will spin

from the box tonight

seen unseemly

sometimes set right

Still feel

I'm looking for

the wrong tree

next forest over

what's it mean

to me?

Spun thousands

more to come

this time leave it

little grey,

little glum

what

2.4005 : 4/20/16 : Fakes

Fakes and substitutes

messing up my

resolutes

the never agains

these foolishnesses

not quite sins

but just not to think

sooner or later

the feelings sink

and denial fails

and I'll be back on

those resolution

rails

what

2.4004 : 4/19/16 : Apprentice

Past too old

to be an apprentice

So never a master

oh well

never meant this

drab strip

had a slot

for me anyway

pull the

ripstop

catch wind

fly away

no teacher

no school

no vocation

that's cool

what

2.4003 : 4/18/16 : Slop

Is this just

a strut

a prop

holding up

a barrel of

slop

no one

wanted anyway?

and if you

knew it

would you say?

what

2.4002 : 4/17/16 : Zonbi

Still I can't get

enough

of these

shambling passed on

the meaning of

the Zonbi

first to last one

oh hell quick

come up with a

metaphor

the fucken enemy

is us

and we're at the

damn door

what

2.4001 : 4/16/16 : Hatch

Counting photons

each one a pin

the holes and baffles

that let the light in

probability

to fifteen decimal places

What do you suppose

he saw written

on their faces

could there truly be

one valid way?

Could anything else be?

how could I say?

dump pins in their millions

start from scratch

not a lot else to do

down this hatch

what

2.4000 : 4/15/16 : The Screw

Maybe then the screw

back a minute

Guess I've got to

be a bear and

grin it

up to all my

fellow desk pilots

all while I'm

cooking holy math

and dreaming riots

been long under the screw

My head feels too big

hardly half a ton of pressure

what the heck's

this gig?

Sure that soon enough

you'll dig it in the next round

and I'll scrap as always

till i get drilled in the ground

what

2.3999 : 4/14/16 : Tiny

I heard you dropped

a two line verse

they couldn't shut up

ready to call the hearse

me I got tiny

before it was cool

and I could even

take that cat to school

what

2.3998 : 4/13/16 : Crevice

What got lodged

in the crevice

nothing valuable

no reason to get nervous

never getting back

well that's canonical

just like the crevice

and its parables all ironical

what

2.3997 : 4/12/16 : Cookies

Eat every cookie

then down the wine

No stomach for it

So pickle me in brine

Who'll get the last laugh

wait and see

too bad for you

you won't know me

what

2.3996 : 4/11/16 : Pay Heed

Pay heed

no crux no creed

I'll have my answer

or by your name

I'll grab the pillars

of this game

if there's no victory

but the coat of Hercules

better than to

hand the keys to

such as these

what

2.3995 : 4/10/16 : Caesar Squad

Another gutting

from the Caesar Squad

how long will you forget me

Oh great God

Don't even tell me

of the refugee

you screwed him too

like it does shit for me

what

2.3994 : 4/9/16 : Charge & Retreat

Charge and retreat to

charge, recharge

no defeat

the Lesser,

Inimical

at large

this will

seem retreat

border on fade

but you'll see

the plan unfold

when I emerge

from the shade

what

2.3993 : 4/8/16 : God's Will

Leave it to the prophets

to interpret God's will

did it say it before?

Hear, I say it still

Oh I'm about to let loose

this cursed arm

no more reticence

no matter who I harm

hence is the contrary

the Devil's flop

I choose three cards

surprised you with a hard stop

when i hurled that

gouting arm into

the Pit

hell I was even glad

I finally found a use or it

what

2.3992 : 4/7/16 : This Pace

This pace frenetic

no time for the aesthetic

philosophical poetic

what's the point

I only ever

signed up for one rodeo

fell off that horse

double decades back

don't you know

20 years in the dust

trying to decide

small surprise

this seems like

such a random ride

what

2.3991 : 4/6/16 : These Visions

Some of his last words

fading in a

wash of snow

and me thinking

it's even

less I know

You're cutting them down

by the scythe sweep

lately

and these visions

you're laying on me

shake me greatly

what

2.3990 : 4/5/16 : Transference

Fearing the infiltrate

the hack job

when did I turn

into such a wack job

probably all

transference

these dooms for which

There's no insurance

what

2.3989 : 4/4/16 : So My Mind Insists

One of my last pages

signifying nothing

analogy for the ages

Get this allegory humming

Or put this one

out of its mystery

It's a swell thing to be done

or so my mind insists to me

what

2.3988 : 4/3/16 : Lotta Lotta

Whole lotta lotta

but I'll just say

hey yeah

One thing worked out

and another

thing or two

may, yeah

top or bottom

I'm a rock steady

send me a sign

if you think

your teacher's ready

for me

what

2.3987 : 4/2/16 : And the Moon

The early shot

on a different kind of

trip

accepting it

no mere mutter

charm or

cantrip

A little little

bit of ease-up

coming soon

between

you me and the moon

what

2.3986 : 4/1/16 : The Rural Route

Battles won on points

dim by dumb luck

leave it to the dreamy dupes

think they're getting

unstuck

stay cynical and mean

stack another row of bricks on

fall back to

the rural route somehow

Lord and really

get my sticks on

what

2.3985 : 3/31/16 : AIM

No idea what

the new weapon is

no idea

how to take aim

take a minute

I can reckon this

my own man

even if it's not my game

what
