2.5070 : 3/21/19 : Terrible

Say terrible things
no not what you'd think
not that kind of
trouble
but again again
the brink
but never going over
guess who
do I try to kid
most likely
this dumb mug
you'll not be rid

what

2.5069 : 3/20/19 : Tick Tock

Tick tock and get
not very far
nor more bottom
to lower that bar
feeling hypo
try to relax
line up again
receive my smacks

what

2.5068 : 3/19/19 : Dreamaway

Catch sad Jack
at the dreamaway
not time for
that today
or next
oh years to come
you've got to
pay some
and then pay
some more
for standing
so long at this
door
and that
and that
and not quite
walking through
no there you sat
all
dreamaway

what

2.5067 : 3/18/19 : Blink

Blink and miss
five seconds inspired
blink and find
disgusted tired
forget to
change the whole routine
forget and blink
and miss the scene

2.5066 : 3/17/19 : Compromised

Everything gets
compromised
nothing comes through
clean
feel responsible
for every choice
feel bad and mean
Worry about people
I can't help
can't fix my own
shit
just bleat and yelp
Couldn't you just
let me off every hook
If I promised
to do every
last minute by the book

what

2.5065 : 3/16/19 : Proof

Don't I do enough?
what the hell
proof do you want?
Most every outing
seems at best
a stupid stunt
And I doubt
I will regret
cutting any of it
short
when I come
around again
to register
my dump report

what

2.5064 : 3/15/19 : The Delay

Persist the delay
for a very
long day
and week
and decade
mistakes
have been made
trying to dodge
just one
mostly wouldn't
call this fun

what

2.5063 : 3/14/19 : Flood

Closed due to flood
I who's name is mud
and the dragging day
and fuck all to say

what

2.5062 : 3/13/19 : Stuck

Get stuck
help comes unexpected
reminder to judge not
and that where you
come from
deserves to be respected
come home to bad
getting worse
or maybe just bad steady
reminder of
the impossibe
anticipating nothing
and ready

what

2.5061 : 3/12/19 : Dig Through

What do I have to
dig through
to get to
whatever
needs airing out
fed up
with what's
welling up
every day
how it makes me feel
how I'd like to play
this next hand
is like as with a
deck marked
and stacked
and get this wild
homebrew racked

what

2.5060 : 3/11/19 : Part and Parcel

Part and parcel
every sore point
Rock boys come in
And wreck this joint
From the tear down
to the makeover
but I'm down to the studs
and there's been a takeover

what

2.5059 : 3/10/19 : Prime

The darkest alt
turns out all my fault
turns out not parallel but serial
the prime I spout
by the pint imperial
the false bravado
the I give up
the fill-to gradient
of the loving cup
the abstract comment
on commonplace vice
all been said
five hundred times
time twice
that's a thousand
try to keep up
that's how the past prime
does creep up

what

2.5058 : 3/9/19 : Little Tale

Don't want to
work out
some message
some
little tale
how
on earth
can it
all
not get stale

what

2.5057 : 3/8/19 : Disturb

Barely disturb
rarely making
history
really only timing
in the air
about this story
better not disturb
this dicey
balance of luck
chance keeping
me honest
it always gets
struck
and the more
righteous
must come from within
how do I figure
that
oh where to begin

what

2.5056 : 3/7/19 : Defense

Unable to mount
much of a defense
against this disease
of straddling the fence
that was a stinker
me with no excuse
I could go right on
but can't see the use

what

2.5056 : 3/6/19 : Extra Wierd

Check in on the country
getting
extra wierd
far off in
the future
I'm sure
you heard
and the epidemic
liquor self-harm pills
While we kept on
shoveling
riches at the shills

what

2.5054 : 3/5/19 : Less

Even less
blocked
and a
low guess
race away
whatever
all day

what

2.5053 : 3/4/19 : Cold

Not doing nothing
but taking
the cold
enduring
pushing
not in the least bold
never know
how much more
not feeling it
So what's it
good for

what

2.5052 : 3/3/19 : The Guy

The thing about
the guy
tragic
high
as the sky
What do we
make
of this hero
arc
and will he
maintain
the spark

what

2.5051 : 3/2/19 : Righteous (or Not)

Righteous or not
it's got to go
blame the state
of the mercury
blame the snow
the state of the world
is material
and forgive the call back
but I sure am
mercurial
and I'm not
satisfied with
the product
but when was I ever?
and whether I feel rightous
or not
I need to plan
the next endeavor

what

2.5050 : 3/1/19 : Bound

No rules
yet bound all sides
days decisions
nights on
futile tides
all the tiny push
I need to
deal with it
stop asking
for extensions
get real with it

what

2.5049 : 2/28/19 : Rusty Oil Lamp

Rusty oil lamp
keep me burning
never really mentioned
where the
oil come from
what defines those
who come ready
who gets left back
feeling dumb
rusty oil lamp
will you still work
get to that
spirit cave
will I find
the guide awaiting
by what little
light that lamp gave

what

2.5048 : 2/27/19 : War

Funny joke
triumph
then regret
a cake thing
I guess
not having
or eating
easy bet
Don't know
what this is
but it isn't war
and I'm sure
not feeling
my excelsior

what

2.5047 : 2/26/19 : Gyre

Winding and
wilding in the
transpacific gyre
democracy's drones
produce holy fire
the century came
and departed
nothing started
the best
are on the short con
the worst think
they know what's wrong
and worse
how to fix it
marked at the X
where one
inflicts it
at the core
that came up hollow
the sage said
all use was there
but that was
hard to swallow

what

2.5046 : 2/25/19 : Sorrytown

Get a little up
sink right back down
such another day
in Sorrytown
sorry that I dawdled
dwindled and hemmed
hawed and jawed
while opportunity condemned
the crazy quilt structure
no house no cards
just a pack of sketches
of post-modern bards
Sorrytown slouchers
to be honest bums
after the king flew the coop
here reality comes

what

2.5045 : 2/24/19 : The Point

And the point
of course
always
again
the ongoing
goes up
like
parrafin
can't
rest on
these laurels
for long
but the
thing is
always
the same thing
is wrong

what

2.5044 : 2/23/19 : Invoke

Invoke the clause
no brilliant pause
no turning point
invoke annoint
the perpetual church
the un-return
