2.5184 : 7/13/19 : Too Few Words (The Experiment: 19/100)

Too slow too few words

so far from cool oh do you feel me nerds?

middle age white dude explain your 401k

I heard about your optimism, not today

and someday stumble on a wall of text

and pray something briefer comes next

Call it the call the imp perverse

you don't got another smoke in your purse

that there's a marker true

dial back the words again get blue

thinking on the murky road ahead

think that I'll curtail the wall of text instead

slower slower till it looks like stopping

less and less words nothing popping

nothing moving not a word in sight

not a glimmer stretching into night

what

2.5176 : 7/5/19 : All Walks and Weather (The Experiment: 11/100)

It's that every minute thing

all walks and weather

cover the full circle

defined by the tether

the cardinal ranges

none can transgress

days to night birth and death

not trying to impress

with new epistemology

I'm sunk in a way old school

like ancient old you know man?

And very very far from cool

what

2.5153 : 6/12/19 : The Gateway

The gateway of

everything that ever was

trips so lightly

off the tongue

really we're

in a deep well

at the far end

a sparse bead strung

is this a saga

or a tuba solo

incompetently played

by a dumb fool

would you really want to

Call up the gateway

probably wipe me out

but hey it will look cool

what

2.5147 : 6/6/19 : Hobby

Forget importance

pick up a hobby

since we're all cooling

our heels in this lobby

wait for the call up

must be a next rank

something smells off bro

not much in the tank

what

2.4913 : 10/15/18 : Peeve

All uncool

got a peeve on

like a kettle

in my back mind

that I leave on

I've got to trace every

long step back

likely to find

a cold stove

in a spindle shack

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

2.4859 : 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

2.4475 : 8/3/17 : 7 STYLES

7 Styles verbal technique

Fork tongue, cat dude,

Stringbound beak,

Lizard person disguised as monk,

Fortinbras, Homunculus,

Rhetorical skunk

All my skills are

So uncool

everything adds up to

shoulda stayed in school

Sometimes charm

but seldom convince

my and my dumb obsession

with the evidence

what

2.4259 : 12/30/16 : HERD

Go on two years

pummled with it

and still resist

just another one

any cool fate missed

just another one

of the ordinary herd

and I disbelieve it

push my broom

and say not a word

how I pine

how I dream of the key

my own secret garden

locked up inside of me

I sketched it once

called it my masterpiece

and wonder if there's anything

esle that could

give me release

what

2.4113 : 8/6/16 : Cool It

Better cool it

better wind down

I know this corner

I've been this clown

and I don't wait

to pay the full price

because it's never worth it

and it's never nice

what

2.4073 : 6/27/16 : Next It

Next it comes

to the shake up

the splash down

the adventure

long cooled

and I'm so

over this town

bang on

next it

comes to this slap

we're all fed up

and there's no

end in sight

to this crap

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

2.3999 : 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

2.3979 : 3/25/16 : Spawn

Dropping glib asides

in the vidja game vernacular

dull observers at best

on the annual spectacular

Hey you cool kids:

get the hell off my lawn

High time I calculate

and contemplate the spawn

Point of appearance

moment of rebirth

Behold the light

and be sworn

witness to its worth

this has got to be the year

new possibilities spawn

this low ebb

this pining for dawn

just when I'm counted out

I'll reappear

transformed by the spawn point

newly freed from fear

what

2.3970 : 3/16/16 : Cup

Another cup of coffee

no original thought

but hey I'm regular

maybe you ought

to move it along

to someone cooler

bigger

as I'm busy

over here

with my

hair trigger

what

2.3924 : 1/30/16 : Shade

A shade of difference

what's it mean

to anyone but me?

at the end of a twelve year

long game of

guess what the surprise is gonna be?

I may be a little

grim faced today

but I'm not afraid

and you're going to

get a hint of the cool change

in my shade

what

2.3896: 1/2/16 : Spot

No plan plan

didn't work out so hot

predictable was predictable

cool I was not

and sick of coming up

with newish thought

and searching searching

for anything

to hit that spot

what

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

what

2.3524 : 12/26/14 : Double Y (Endless Axis 257/500)

Tear up plans

a through double y

don't need to scrap

or beg when I'm such a cool guy

from now on first class

goodbye to inner conflict

Sure I deserve the very best

this late stage mayhem can inflict

Because plan double z

is gonna open eyes wide around every block

because I got a dirty need

to make everybody feel my culture shock

because plan double y was to live not to die

long enough for the fire to burn

well past the point of control or return

what

2.3496 : 11/28/14 : Ice Arrives (Endless Axis 229/500)

Ice arrives

I know for sure you mean to cool me

Fooled me twice

So now never forever fool me

anymore

and this ice I mean to beat it

this halting state

I'm no machine I will defeat it

Get out ahead

race the ice's leading edge

So say hello

to my little thin end of the wedge

I mean to dive into

the crack of this dumb earth

So spun to chaos

yet I can't contain my mirth

what
