2.3560 : 1/31/15 : Hundred Weight (Endless Axis 293/500)

I load my pockets

by the hundred weight

proof against such moments

so don't hesitate

I bet the family jewels

On caverns vast

And how the present

spins the future into past

what

2.3559 : 1/30/15 : Typing Test (Endless Axis 292/500)

Called upon

the typing test

better I guess than an

exploding vest

glance in a mirror

am I the change I'm looking for

get in on this disenchanted

world on the ground floor

I stopped calling out

turned my face

I can't be killed

though I will be replaced

as this flight grinds

to existential arrest

and I go down consigned

to take the typing test

what

2.3558 : 1/29/15 : Course (Endless Axis 291/500)

Just now I need to shut up

and change course:

I need to drink a river

need to eat a horse

I need fire and spirits

in equal portions

a bracer for the shock

and the end of all distortions

what

2.3557 : 1/28/15 : Visionary, Translator (Endless Axis 290/500)

Visionary, translator

stationary

plan hater

gotta drift

mull

flow

I'll spin you when I

Bang

go

Parabolic concentrator

Wide net

fire hose later

Open plan

Open heart

Soon ten years since

I hit start

what

2.3556 : 1/27/15 : 5 Vie (Endless Axis 289/500)

5 vie for frame space

in my mind

Science and Transcendence

And oh how they twine

Ecology and Justice

oh grasping for what's true

and a fifth I cannot name

but I know it's You

I had a dream

awake in light

in a sound of pounding surf

that I cooked up one night

As I felt the five

Grasp and tug and pull

it seems old nameless must win out

but until then my dance card's full

what

2.3555 : 1/26/15 : 24 1 Down (Endless Axis 288/500)

24, 1 down

I professed and promised

Knowing I'm a clown

Playing this pantomime

I was never up to do the time

but I did it anyway

and never really stopped

Or questioned that play

soon 2, 3 4 5

Everyone will pass blankly

I suppose I'll wind up still alive

but I'll pretend it's not a trick

I'll land this one and make it stick

and ride it home on a rail

no more excuses

no more chasing my tail

what

2.3554 : 1/25/15 : Pine (Endless Axis 287/500)

Rushing through a lot

Someday you fear

you'll pine to savor

every rough spot

It doesn't seem nice

and it doesn't seem good

and who the hell are you

to tell me what I should?

And still that

doesn't get me anywhere

I'd love a new routine

or just to sit and blindly stare

but all I've got's this sighing

heaving up forever trying

what

2.3553 : 1/24/15 : Condensate (Endless Axis 286/500)

Stab blind again now

trying to pin the condensate

have I got anything

besides I hope it's not too late

do I believe in the meaning still

as much as in the bitter pill

and if I have to climb this hill

I'll take you all with me I will

Somebody smarter than me

has already tried and failed

and catastrophes come thick

however I might rant and rail

Well here's your little ray of sun

another few is all I'm done

I could be you or anyone

You: have a little crazy fun

what

2.3552 : 1/23/15 : Thread Back (Endless Axis 285/500)

Gotta get up up

pulled that thread back hard

heedless of what unravels

or what it might foment for a bard

lurking in this reproachful tower

dreaming about the manifesto

trying to figure out what's that's opposite

trying to spring the trick hey presto

deliver unto me a vision

Oh I don't believe in any of that smack

it's just a way of telling stories

at least until the thread snaps back

what

2.3551 : 1/22/15 : No Runner (Endless Axis 284/500)

Slow off the mark

and no runner

Never had much luck

except as a gunner

in a war of worlds

back in the tower days

despite it if I could

I wouldn't relive that haze

So what now

nothing but up and out

over the sandbags

fake this savage shout

Until I get picked off

or break through

I spun a lot of tales

but I can't fake you

what

2.3550 : 1/21/15 : Puzzle (Endless Axis 283/500)

Is this a puzzle

or just a mess

I'd get on top of it

but I got so much stress

Will it yield to me

if I sleep on it tonight

wake me with the answer

steady creep from dim to light

what

2.3549 : 1/20/15 : It Makes You Think (Endless Axis 282/500)

It makes you think

about how the time always

keeps slipping

I read a joint about it

Called count the clock

that shit was gripping

wish we could go back

Knowing what we know

It's just impossible

It makes you think

could it be everything's saved

could be all loss is bull

but is the bad saved too

the agony eternal

ever hanging there

it makes me think

it's typical: no

easy answers anywhere

what

2.3548 : 1/19/15 : Battery (Endless Axis 281/500)

Does the battery have enough

charge in in it?

You'd think so it's sure

enough large i'n'it?

What's left that's

penny for a pound these days?

how will I live with it

If my sound dismays?

I pulled the poison plug

jeez 15 years

just have to dodge the random squirts

the imp aims at my ears

started to charge the battery

and now I'm at my peak

and I'll power up your crazy bike

'Cause you're my kind of freak

what

2.3547 : 1/18/15 : Idea Men (Endless Axis 280/500)

Heaven help me and preserve me

from the idea men

a thousand curses on the fools

who live by the damn pen

my left hand in a bloody box

to the one who can sell me release

cast me into trackless sleep

and bid every idea to cease

what

2.3546 : 1/17/15 : TALL (Endless Axis 279/500)

It's a Right

to turn aside

the storybook mentality

all's well, ever

it's a ride

the black and white duality

but things go on

and things occur

it seems you must make

Something of it all

If you somehow didn't

Still be a story sure

and real and made up

seem equally tall

what

2.3545 : 1/16/15 : Retread (Endless Axis 278/500)

Can I just retread

something already said

oh good shall be saved

and every trial braved

the moment it will come

I'll come in proud welcome

retread that line one more day

a dream but hey that's okay

what

2.3544 : 1/15/15 : Target (Endless Axis 277/500)

My invisible target

my highest point ambition

backed into the same corner

try to squeeze past the attrition

with these tricks of lists and schedules

with this magic charm

with so little firm to go on

but be kind and do less harm

I'm up to my neck in it

these worldly ends and means

I'm down here with the plebeians

we're packed in like sardines

and would I wish to swim upstream

oh would I wish to rise

risk getting eaten by a

bigger fish sure no surprise

but my target looms over

Still enticing, lost, unseen

But if I'm to stop shooting blindly

I'm going to need a new routine

what

2.3543 : 1/14/15 : The Chaos Script (Endless Axis 276/500)

I try to tap the leisure well

but all I get's the chaos script

try again try again try again

or so the motivation robots quipped

If I only had a hero's heart

I would just toss it all and write the book

but I want a sure thing or at least some insurance

So I keep searching searching for that hook

what

2.3542 : 1/13/15 : Wondering (Endless Axis 275/500)

Still wondering

what time's made of

and who makes it

Still wondering

what works this thirst up

What slakes it

will I stop wondering

or breathing first

Will time ever

dull this thirst?

what

2.3541 : 1/12/15 : Pithed (Endless Axis 274/500)

After the ice-pick cold

pithed my skull

the leeches drew their blood

and sent me reeling out

for belly full

And pretty soon

got the pick again

it's a miracle

I can still count to ten

and what's the point

of these mundane tales

What's the point of anything

that won't drive sales

I used to think I had

all that jack dicked

but the pings and yarrows

just picked and picked and picked

what
