2.5301 : 11/7/19 : The Real Kind

As far as
dreams these days
the box the box the box
If there's
such a thing as fate
it's a thing
that mocks
season the mash
with the
dismal science
since I bombed
out of the real kind
and the books
demand compliance

2.5300 : 11/6/19 : Dare I Say

Dare I say
oh saying's cheap
everything else
the hill is steep
say it anyway
like a spell
the cynic snickers
say go to hell
someday get it
every minute on
ascend, begin it, gone

2.5299: 11/5/19 : Disappointment

Recall the grand gesture
the lurid symbol
quickly blew it
won't find that one
in the hymnal
mess it's been a while now
don't recall the last
last hurrah
likely just a matter of time
and so it fucking goes
selah
and it's put up or
shut up time
for the better world set
gearing up for
disappointment
generally
a safe bet

what

2.5298 : 11/4/19 : Swell

Just the rising
Swell
no object and
deeply unwell
across the boards
the mad thing
stalks
and madly
talks

2.5297 : 11/3/19 : Kept

How likely
the world will be kept
something that
crossed over
while I slept
I cast it so
about a thousand times
and when the bell chimes
I'll run at the mouth
like the dog I am
get you coming and going
on the job on the lam
sign me up
for another ten thousand
something new next
or you can damn well
pound sand

2.5296 : 11/2/19 : Ordeal Again

If seeking ordeal again
call it a banner day
enough privilege it's messed up
to ask why it has to be this way
only human though
the flesh pierced bleeds
we all deserve better
we all could use a little help
with all these needs

2.5295 : 11/1/19 : Little Slack

Let's summarize
Up to my eyes
not much to show
Some you get to throw
not much excuse
more self abuse
but I'll spring back
after a little slack

2.5294 : 10/31/19 : The Hook

Casual abyss
gloom on
the asterisk
sure it happens
comes and goes
may even serve a purpose
I suppose
well it gets me
right off the hook
give it a day
then take a look

what

2.5293 : 10/30/19 : 80/20

80/20 who doesn't
love business speak
80% sure I already
hit my peak
whoa that's scary
depressing morose
20% chance
some real opportunity is close
tell the same story
again and over
guy that got the mystic mission
the muse and what drove her
but to be frank the 80
percent that was tedious smack
made the 20 shining exceptions
seem so very far back

2.5292 : 10/29/19 : Block

What can I say
When God gave out poetry
I musta hit it cray
I'd rather bring the awe
'Cause how stale is shock
And I won't let you
trip me up with any
stumbling block
