2.4868 : 8/31/18 : Secret

Another secret

turnaround

is planned

that plot's

run into the ground

and panned

a century

in this stream

all slowly

slowly

losing steam

so find another

power source

always hah

the battery of cource

then suddenly

in the silt

a gleam

what

2.4867 : 8/30/18 : Weasels

This dirty world

we're all weasels

you ideas are stupid

So I hope your kid gets measels

turn up the volume

drown out these jerks

eye for an eye for an eye

see how that works

or guess not

so ends like you'd expect

just this dirty world

and weasels getting wrecked

what

2.4866 : 8/29/18 : Next Recreation

The next recreation

better start real quick

overindulged

feeling a little sick

not in a cool way

like some cool kid

that's one illusion

I should be well rid

it's all a muddled cluttered

mess upstairs

the whole damn circus

feels like splitting hairs

Some seeing total breakdown

we should have such luck

I see another hundred years

of winding down

and staying stuck

what

2.4865 : 8/28/18 : Swell

Not much here to match

the unearthly swell

no wonder they're all cheering

forget tomorrow just as well

forget what's marked

don't care for the figure

hope most don't notice

contemplation's de rigueur

and only really trying

to stretch out one last long goodbye

on the other side

of five more days

no plan I'll catch you

on the fly

what

2.4864 : 8/27/18 : Stand Out

Search for one thing

that stands out

whole lot of is this

what it's all about

hooked in again

the old hoist and haul

and all the old fantasies

flicker and pall

high above the

earthly sphere

the spark snuffer flies

maybe far maybe near

and straining for an echo

of that good sound

maybe something will stand out

next go around

what

2.4863 : 8/26/18 : Tossing Art

Hey old acquaintence

clocking in I guess

on four years back

and glad enough

you're still tossing art

up on the stack

I hope it's led you

somewhere with more bends ahead

forget again a dozen year

see where it's all led

what

2.4862 : 8/25/18 : Anger

It's the anger

it's the lack of sleep

it's the bad old days

that cut me deep

it's the vices

it's the worm

it's the restless grasping

if that's really the term

believe believe

that things can change

not just deck chairs

to rearrange

maybe even

turn the great ship round

about the only thing

that keeps me seeking

the big sound

what

2.4861 : 8/24/18 : Paper

Running out of pages

Still doing on paper

can't get with the program

next one will be a scraper

always more words

but the arrangement disappoints

hope to turn the thing around

but it's creaking at the joints

what

2.4860 : 8/23/18 : Dark Gloom

Another dark gloom

another pointless message

from this low room

maybe I'm enjoying

this depressive stew

I guess I said

I was going to talk you

another summer

circling the drain

another fast dumb

thought circles my brain

I'll go and prove

it's unoriginal as usual

I'd ask you for something

but I know you'll refuse, you will

what

2.4859 : 8/22/18 : Experiment

Call it an experiment

distinguish the nonsense

chalk up the last thing

to something like insolence

and stop stomping

on the God damned turd

and throw away those kicks

can you feel me? Word?

not much left cool about me

nor the true quill geek

You can say I rolled some bad throws

and yet I still seek

and at another days end

though my average sucks, I swing

I guess that's what I've got

If I've got anything

what

2.4858 : 8/21/18 : Half Wrong

Is it half wrong

or moreso

Seems bound to

be poor, so

hard to see

the point of trying

another half baked

leap I'm eyeing

put that in your

pipe and smoke it

fits a pattern

think I broke it

what

2.4857 : 8/20/18 : Chrysalis

Sorry about your chrysalis

sorry about your transformation

You picked a lousy spot for sure

I should have used more imagination

the dark part that assumes the worst

and tries some wack hail mary stunt

I let the dull inevitable

and it doesn't matter what I want

what

2.4856 : 8/19/18 : Lightly

now to tread lightly

tightrope on a soggy noodle

stretched and sunbaked rubber band

the whole kit and caboodle

the attitude to cultivate

so careless so intent

I stopped the piper playing

somehow still paying his rent

still felt like I caught the slightest

scent a'wafting through the trees

and I'm following so lightly

drifting breezelike through the trees

what

2.4855 : 8/18/18 : Smacks

Smacks me

I got nothing to prove

no reason to think

all that much will improve

look back 3 generations

seems not so bad

if it's as good as it gets

fuck it

I'm glad

what

2.4854 : 8/17/18 : Able

Feeling made chiefly

of bad habits

these days mainly

off the table

Feeling deep change

must come soon

then really

wondering if I'm able

cast a glance

long seven back

distressingly the same

and soon a dark remembrance

So I best get on my game

what

2.4853 : 8/16/18 : Backstory

The backstory you can't see

the context

Is a little too spot on

you know what's next

I must decline

to elaborate

it's duller than you think

seems to be my state

what

2.4852 : 8/15/18 : Pheremones

What tracks this world's

pheremones

What is the queen?

is it money or influnece

whatever the means

mostly mindless following

following the trace

seldom remember to stop

look up feel sun on my face

like to think a year will be different

all the moreso five

something like my own track

at last, at least alive

to something I lost track of

distracted by false scent

back long the true line

Whatever that ever meant

what

2.4851 : 8/14/18 : Hollow Summer

Summer grows hollow

even in the heat

center turns to dry pith

in the long days' retreat

every one seems quicker

illusion of age

and really they've got longer

as our impact turns a page

never again that long spell

left on my own devices

better not to dwell

hours spent on fools and vices

and every hollow summer

falls into itself at last

thinking how to fall indifferent

thinking through and holding fast

what

2.4850 : 8/13/18 : B.O.C.

I'm gonna start the

brainless optimist club for real

I'm gonna do a wicked number

on how I always feel

Because I'm sick of it

I'm fed right up

I'm going to drive a hard bargain

for a different cup

half full half empty

I give you flowing over

Once the mean miser

now the shout the treasure trover

It's all long shots baby

Well we start out unique

before they file another edge off

Imma straight up freak

what

2.4849 : 8/12/18 : Inner Twist

What would be

good tonight?

Do I think I

should tonight?

write out lists

or write a letter

try to make this

come out better?

angle for

a sick reveal

or tell you how

I really feel

an inner twist

is hard to master

keep it loose

and put down faster

what

2.4848 : 8/11/18 : Forgot Again

So I forgot again

got out of order

file another bare completion

right on the border

talking with an

imaginary madman in my head

standard fare

enough to get me to bed

what

2.4847 : 8/10/18 : Primary Metaphysics

Pondering my

primary metaphysics

is it indoctrination

or something

more intrinsic

odd times I dream

one day I might make a study

proper

but I doubt that I could

make it pay

and don't quite see

myself a pauper

and wonder then if

I am just a weak dilletante

Stringing out a line

along a deadly mundane jaunt

what

2.4846 : 8/9/18 : The Plug

Need a better tactic

when I can't

be bothered

the long tyranny

and every

false start

it fathered

circling the plug

is kind of the nature

and me with nothing to fight it

but the same old

nomenclature

what

2.4845 : 8/8/18 : Blessed

Two drinks is one too many

and I'm feeling old

sure seemed to come on sudden

If I may be so bold

Still it all reminded me

I'm sure bound to feel blessed

when I can slow down, open eyes

attend and get unstressed

a great deal that is beautiful

great people I admire

and maybe on my better days

I too might just inspire

what

2.4844 : 8/7/18 : Who's Fault

Drub the bushes

shake the sheets

out looking

for grace

Ain't been feeling

so swell but

I've got to keep pace

Nothing's going to

slow down

nothing's going to halt

and nobody

gains a thing

getting a pin

in who's fault

what

2.4843 : 8/6/18 : A Raptor

What did I see today

the commute track

the box

the thoughts

revealed

would land me in the stocks

a raptor stuck

or crashed

or strangely standing

at a fence

called upon to justify

I would have

no defense

I better

open up my eyes

I better

harry out the lies

I better

get this angry

mind in check

as time is getting

thin as heck

what

2.4842 : 8/5/18 : Performance

Not my best performance

but it's been something

of a time

Even with my

full attention

you would say

I'm past my prime

guess I'll try to

redeem myself

though I got

full absolution

but I start piling

right up again

and the big grandstand

is no solution

what

2.4841 : 8/4/18 : Kick

Kick the game to the curb

and keep the can

gotta keep quick because

there's a coupon

can't you dig it man?

how it'll pan out

I'm predicting

the pigs will swim to the top

me I grow tough like a

lichen liking my chances

in this coming tide of slop

what

2.4840 : 8/3/18 : Behind

What the hell's

behind this now?

nothing ever

What it seems

go and date

the stuffings out

bring up Trump

and memes

nothing for

the ages here, folks

limping gamely on

might as well

be a pickle

get it kiddies?

blong!

what

2.4839 : 8/2/18 : Epic

What's the opposite of epic

not just quiet

not just small

trying tonight

to reach for it

what's the opposite

of all

somehow think

it's not just none

something that

won't translate

something

inexhaustible

something that

will innundate

what

2.4838 : 8/1/18 : Rainbow the Falls

The rainbow

the falls

moments

and thralls

if I could paint

a canvas

the trailbreak

the grand pass

in memory

far from the box

no money moves

no counting stocks

the memory

must now sustain

till falls again

bright summer rain

what
