Try to see
The constraints as holy
That if I let down my guard
the angels won't roll me
down the negative
asymptote
into the swamp
waiting for the prehistoric
reptile to go chomp

2.5220 : 8/18/19 : Dark Sacrament (The Experiment: 55/100)
Dark sacrament
has to be at night
not exactly occult
just the absence of light
When I supplicate
it comes again never
at least once upon a time
seems you blessed that endeavor
Is it the root cause
of the bad vibes downstairs
will I ever leave it truly
this side of earthly cares
Once upon a time
it truly didn't exist
and oh if I could excise it
it really wouldn't be missedMonday, August 17, 2026
2.5219 : 8/17/19 : Subject of Goals (The Experiment: 54/100)
The subject of goals
shuttle between poles
assignments and roles
side eye burning coals
Oh really? Today?
Count all times you say
still back to the fray
From where? Oh, touché
turn off inspection
it's no resurrection
it's not a direction
no more introspection

2.5217 : 8/15/19 : Counter (The Experiment: 52/100)
Counter broke down
many moons ago
nobody read it
anyway and so
why continue
to count the beats
make an X
to mark defeats
never to be studied
or raise a question
Why make the beats at all?
the cruel suggestion

2.5216 : 8/14/19 : Uplift (The Experiment: 51/100)
Uplift so easily
conceived
but in reality
what energy -
I believed
the universe was
filled
so the bad and worse
could be stilled
bite off that but that
presses the teeth
hold on to what that
beckons belief

2.5215 : 8/13/19 : Inaction (The Experiment: 50/100)
Regarding inaction
You'd think I'd teach
the master class
Lost in translation
And how so little
came to pass
Oh if I could
skate words over
meaning heedless like
a one would
An alter ego who
up and left that day
heedless of
stability
and the road untaken
California way
