2.5077 : 3/28/19 : Prologue

dare to declare

the prologue

think you can

hunt

with that dog

prior to the thesis

the homely foyer

I stake the

new way

sunk cost

destroyer

only crazies

ever look me up

before you protest

let me

interrupt

I did the math

and it devastates

nevermore lost

nevermore

hesitates

what

2.5075 : 3/26/19 : Poundland

In for a penny

in for a pound

Will any notice

when I go to ground

when everything's a penny

you'll appear I understand

in the valley of the penny

and a ticket to poundland

what

2.5075 : 3/26/19 : Meat Cure

How much

to blame

this human meat

Where to

attain

a meat cure

Some kind

of apothecary

a little powder

grind to be sure

time's wasting

one way out

from the same old

a step up

if I may be

so bold

what

2.5074 : 3/25/19 : Hobby

Need a hobby

lineage of kings

anyway

to cope with

what time brings

what

2.5073 : 3/24/19 : Obtuse

Could tell a tale

obtuse

absurd

mundane

my kingdom

for a

sight line

less inane

what

2.5072 : 3/23/19 : Myths

Way too old

for origin myths

just keeping up

skipping over the rifts

hoping that I just

need a rest

give me three years

without another test

some seem marked

have trajectory

guess I know too well

What you expect of me

move by the age of myths

and onto the parthenon

dialectic on the steps

next the treaty of the new Trianon

what

2.5071 : 3/22/19 : Disobey

Barely succeed

and in the

dumbest way

and still a maybe

Still time

to disobey

Or maybe not

I don't know

what I'm about

just leave it low

what

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

disgusted tired

forget to

change the whole routine

forget and blink

and miss the scene

what

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

what

2.5043 : 2/22/19 : Switch

Call the switch back

abitrary

unplanted

after a thousand

years

stationary

seventeen lives

suddenly

flare

not another

word about it

till I

see you there

what

2.5042 : 2/21/19 : Inertia or Initiative

As I form the inkling

of another secret plan

but the thing is

that I always

lose the plot

and what could ever

really measure up

and should I really just

be more thankful

for what I've got

What is it inertia

of initiative?

What's it matter really

if it reads the same

and still I mull

and fiddle with my

secret plan

try to stay convinced

that I'm still in the game

what

2.5041 : 2/20/19 : GALL

Killing it

doing nothing for me

all the successes

really just bore me

but nothing like

thinking

over it all

and your minions

call glory

ain't you have some gall

what

2.5040 : 2/19/19 : Cracking

Cracking up

let's say

in the fun way

find a

friendly

landing spot

Some day

a cohort to

respect my

Stacks

and meantime

just keep

showing stacks

what

2.5039 : 2/18/19 : Shatters

Still getting surprised

by my own

mystery crashes

though the code's

in plain text

no salt

in the hashes

and of course

the tiny issue

that it scarcely matters

Lord knows I've

bent the only

rule enough

so far nothing shatters

what

2.5038 : 2/17/19 : Deep Time Still

You know deep time

still grinding along

despite this fast mess

we've got churning along

the glacier versus

the avalanche

and am I supposed to care

exactly how I buy the ranch?

and there's the rub

incompatible scales

emotion can't catch up

where imagination fails

and my scale why

it's a flurry of snow

and wholly disconnected

from above and below

what
