2.3759 : 8/18/15 : Positivity Experiment (Endless Axis 492/500)

Not experimental

talented or tight

no good excuse

for what keeps me up

all night

nobody looking

to collaborate

Why do I work

to prop up this blank slate

end of the

positivity experiment

is nigh

What could the conclusion

be except I

guess I'm not that guy

what could the conclusion

be but

try try again

then blame it on

the Devil

and original sin

what

2.3758 : 8/17/15 : Hamster (Endless Axis 491/500)

All I just want

is to keep polishing

tiny stones

I learned you were

2 years my elder

that one got

me in my bones

I and should

break out break out

form this

hamster track

but I like it when

if spins up fast

and trips me up

and hurls me back

what

2.3757 : 8/16/15 : Drop (Endless Axis 490/500)

Pin drop

anticipation

for the

good cop

bad cop

situation

hardly know

the goal

the object

anymore

but for sure

there's going to

be a downpour

what

2.3756 : 8/15/15 : Charge (Endless Axis 489/500)

Who's in

charge here

something looming

large near

and I can't

claim to be

enlightened

a bit

and I get

the tensions

heightened

what

2.3755 : 8/14/15 : Line (Endless Axis 488/500)

Draw a line like a circle

trace a mazey line

I'm right as rain

baby I'm super fine

around the rosy corner

when I lunge

You'll feel it always

then I take the plunge

what

2.3754 : 8/13/15 : Stygian (Endless Axis 487/500)

These Stygian depths

Do I get plumbing them

meeting big dudes with bad reps

It's unbecoming when

I go from station to station

forgetting every thought

And not a clue now

as to what I really thought

what

2.3753 : 8/12/15 : In Post (Endless Axis 486/500)

Fix it in post

fax it back to most

through the time time

bubble tube

made him look

what a rube

This line stretches worse

who so wins the purse

The race did

it pass?

bend on

leaves of grass

what

2.3752 : 8/11/15 : Because Eleven (Endless Axis 485/500)

Because

eleven minutes

arthritic hands

because but ifs

althoughs maybe ands

because ten minutes

because that's

how it goes

today I knew

today

was going to be

one of those

what

2.3751 : 8/10/15 : Ditch (Endless Axis 484/500)

Said I'd blow off

and ditch

but it's all gotten so rote

In time

another stitch

guess I'm still

bailing the boat

but the thing

was supposed to be

about the sea

not the boat

not this damn

silent cacophony

what

2.3750 : 8/9/15 : Plod (Endless Axis 483/500)

Long for a sprint

but this leg's a plod

Somebody for sure

decided don't spare the rod

got the marks to prove it

Cross my thighs and back

no short cut seems apparent

and no goddamned life hack

what

2.3749 : 8/8/15 : Dare (Endless Axis 482/500)

Sick of talking up

the daring-do

You talk a nice game

but what do you do

about these problems

larger than us all

forget your dare

because here comes the wall

what

2.3748 : 8/7/15 : The Rabbit (Endless Axis 481/500)

Where the time went

other not mysteries

grab hell

things get blistery

I'd like to think

we're going to pull the rabbit out

but what I've got

goes way past doubt

what

2.3747 : 8/6/15 : Last Meal (Endless Axis 480/500)

All nonsense

like we didn't

long past

begin it

and the finish

line all unknown

could just

pop up any minute

I've lost a bit

of my old

existential zeal

and I can't

figure if I'd

ever really want

to know my last meal

what

2.3746 : 8/5/15 : Stays (Endless Axis 479/500)

Then apprehending

a shift must come

a change in the wind

and where's that from?

an open end

a few sparse days

pray a little sticks

a little stays

what

2.3745 : 8/4/15 : Special (Endless Axis 478/500)

But it all just keeps

spooling around and the special's gone

and I'm thinking about

language

and traditions, long

I think I'll leave the thought

again unresolved

you can chew on it a while

if you can stand to get involved

what

2.3744 : 8/3/15 : Stick (Endless Axis 477/500)

Ring around

another change

end of indulgence

embrace of the strange

If you'll forgive me

short and sweet

I defy augury

and determine to stick every beat

what

2.3743 : 8/2/15 : Wonderful Gift (Endless Axis 476/500)

Focus, think clearly

present what you know

Had a way with words

but still I guess you had to go

and here's to each one

I couldn't ever know

What a wonderful gift

may any essence ever show

me away and going forward

with a nasty weight now pressing

with this wonderful gift of a hard short life

a depth I am calling a blessing

what

2.3742 : 8/1/15 : Happening (Endless Axis 475/500)

It's happening right now

by the pricking of my brow

by the prickling up my neck

I see the veil a pieced torn wreck

Did I want the face to face

you interposed a fearsome taste

I interposed a deck of woe

Guess we both had some miles to go

What's happening so soon the launch

my Argonauts grinning and staunch

the destination here's the trick

Chuck all the darts sure one will stick 

what

2.3741 : 7/31/15 : Spike (Endless Axis 474/500)

Last spike

here on either

wrap it up

or hook

up the mic

throw a few

down

get large

hoist the spike

yeah

take charge

what

2.3740 : 7/30/15 : Sketch (Endless Axis 473/500)

About the minute

we lose the plot

forget to give

what was assumed

we got

this situation

eh it's been worse

at least I finally

bought off that curse

if I could take a minute

20 times a day

get inside the issue

maybe come what may

the next minute

wouldn't be such a stretch

and the general prospect

wouldn't be so sketch

what

2.3739 : 7/29/15 : The Obvious (Endless Axis 472/500)

Let every single thing

Slack but this

thrilled up ten thousand

seconds got shot with bliss

and got it right forever

for an instant just one time

and didn't even finish

the obvious

what

2.3738 : 7/28/15 : Zero and Force (Endless Axis 471/500)

Inertia to zero

and force consequent

in a second

with a sharp

consonant

and a gut whuff

deep hollowing

did I ever tell you

how I got my following?

every time I open

my palm fate silvers it

Every time I pick up

bad luck

time pilfers it

so at the hard

stop I

took a deep breath

said

love, love, lover

Love is

Strong as death

what

2.3737 : 7/27/15 : Loop (Endless Axis 470/500)

far too many

times the loop

no serious

bid to fly the coop

and I offer no light

no not any

and how many more nights?

far too many

what

2.3736 : 7/26/15 : The Worst (Endless Axis 469/500)

The worst is coming

I'm sure of it

How'm I really expected

to give a shit

to get it down

transcribe repost

Maybe yet still to come

the best the most

what

2.3735 : 7/25/15 : Dumb Boy Thrash (Endless Axis 468/500)

Ready for nothing

unchanged

nothing but deck chairs

rearranged

spin out

blow out

pass out

crash

spun boy

hung boy

dumb boy

thrash

what

2.3734 : 7/24/15 : The Pricks (Endless Axis 467/500)

Far past parables

the hammer and the axe

whatever's falling

guess even gravity slacks

however tossed that bed of tacks

always one that sticks

and I'm too tired now

to kick against the pricks

guess I was going to write

500 cheerful songs

Did I tell you cats the one

about clanging gongs

did I tell you the one

about the solipsistic trap

or the hundred pound barrel

and about two fifty of crap

however tossed that bed of tacks

always one that sticks

and I'm too tired now

to kick against the pricks

what

2.3733 : 7/23/15 : Trio (Endless Axis 466/500)

Trio of afterthought

trio of error

wouldn't you like to hear

my own small trilogy of terror

Scarcely think now

of my own flesh

but I worry at these eons

and how fine they thresh

what

2.3732 : 7/22/15 : Hey Hell (No Title) (Endless Axis 465/500)

Oh right

hey hell

one more night

no title

no business

maybe a little

bit of fife and

thrust

and all we

ever implied

girl I

ain't

tongue tied

what

2.3731 : 7/21/15 : Held (Endless Axis 464/500)

A plate held

with a scrap of notions

pine to dream

of the slap of oceans

soon to see

how comes to it

Sure I'll be

all thumbs through it

what

2.3730 : 7/20/15 : Careless Wishes (Endless Axis 463/500)

Careless wishes

for silence, control

for a trajectory

to be on a roll

for one less task

for one more day

careless talk

and not a thing to say

what

2.3729 : 7/19/15 : Another World (Endless Axis 462/500)

Another world

could I find my heart

and move right in

and really start

broadcast straight

at you from there

and would anyone hear

and would anyone care

I don't look back

with envy or regret

every year still feels

could be the best yet

and potential it is

stashed and curled

all ready to discover

in another world

what

2.3728 : 7/18/15 : Weather (Endless Axis 461/500)

As the weather

gets weirder

ignore it like anything

anyway you've got

to life life

and you can't change

what's happening

up in my mental space

the weather cycles

calm and rough

I'm contemplating

what I can't spare

and what's enough

I'm contemplate

weather now and soon

and in and out

my mind is brewing up

and soon enough, the waterspout

what

2.3727 : 7/17/15 : Peers (Endless Axis 460/500)

Here to check

the peers

how you like my humor

kick back relax

stay in the room or

get out

as always one

on the other side

of the fence

of that line

of the whole ride

what

2.3726 : 7/16/15 : Stretched (Endless Axis 459/500)

Stretched too far

at long last

I'm losing it

getting

deep and vast

shadow on the water

how'd it work out again?

and the membrane is

grown very thin

what

2.3725 : 7/15/15 : Wish (Endless Axis 458/500)

Maybe

the expression should be

don't be too careful

what you wish for

dream a little bigger

can't hurt

do you figure

might all find

that we could get more

can't make time

and sure there's no

new rhymes

but we might get a fresh idea

give a shout

the truth will have out

you might well wish

that it might free ya

what

2.3724 : 7/14/15 : Present (Endless Axis 457/500)

Present the artist

at the end of a long line

present the artist's

journey the extent of an incline

and if the artist can't

keep up with the presentation

leave the artist stranded

flip another station

what

2.3723 : 7/13/15 : Boxes (Endless Axis 456/500)

Just filling boxes

with numbers here

nothing ever really

does appear

And I like a rapid strike

flash bang gong

40 less things yet

to not get wrong

what

2.3722 : 7/12/15 : Weird Fears (Endless Axis 455/500)

Weird transgressions

and weird fears

the student is long gone

and nobody appears

I think about a little tiny

indiscretion

I swear it's so slight

seems absurd to mention

how long since I

last blew the big vice

forgotten the when

forgotten the how

Suiting me just fine

make way for all right now

what

2.3721 : 7/11/15 : Forget Get (Endless Axis 454/500)

Technically again

forgot to pull the pin

Or is it the other way

Keep forget get in

a little local light show

past midnight

facing five hours

hell I'm so not right

Feeling regret

Scratch at my side door

all things considered

What the hell is it for

Guess I better find

new ways to cope

I guess I wish I knew

who handed me all this rope

what

2.3720 : 7/10/15 : Coalesce (Endless Axis 453/500)

Diamond focus

the only antidote

in these times

to prevalent despair

against frankly

the eco-crimes

talk to me

about the worse

worst case

many things lost

we never

shall replace

Diamond focus

to not to

quiet acquiesce

a crazy confidence

a brand new key

will coalesce

not held in

any single

hand or mind

stand back as

Some bright million

pierce the rind

what

2.3719 : 7/9/15 : Twisty (Endless Axis 452/500)

How twisty can it get

hey take a look at me now

if they could read this misformed mind

They'd throw the book at me now

they'll never figure it out

it's what I'm always laughing about

Always jump in with no clue how to wrap up

Should work out great if you need someone to slap up

Keep trying to look ahead

on these twisting roads

One day I'll cave these maze walls in

unleash just blistering loads

what

2.3718 : 7/8/15 : Inkling (III) (Endless Axis 451/500)

Called out someone's weakness

I laugh immune

stroll up with celestial banjo

keep it crunchy, picayune

my mentors of an older school

I wish I'd wondered harder then

lone inkling's all I'm left with

stop and call it back from ten

what

2.3717 : 7/7/15 : Inkling (II) (Endless Axis 450/500)

Little inkling

ragged scrap of script

Stingy revelation from

my spent pen dripped

no time to polish

no time for lick and spit

solely time to throw the dice

so make what you will of it

what

2.3716 : 7/6/15 : Inkling (I) (Endless Axis 449/500)

Claimed it a sad precedent once

back when I was a pollyanna dunce

back when I was a moralist

flash forward ten tons of grist

Now under smoky stars twinkling

despite my errors I have an inkling

And closing in on twenty years long

I grasp in hand just that that's wrong

what

2.3715 : 7/5/15 : Pith (Endless Axis 448/500)

Squeezed the juice all

now I'm left with pith

see the fountainhead

Pack a hand to take you with

wanted more substance

more fiber: more pith

not exactly heaven calling

but I'm confirmed

that that's a myth

what

2.3714 : 7/4/15 : Racket (Endless Axis 447/500)

Someone ought to declare

interdependence day

Because we're crashing

a lot of things

And there simply is no way

One flag one strategy

One zeitgeist is going to hack it

and today anyway

I'm going to pretend

I'll see a new thing rise

from inside my new racket

what

2.3713 : 7/3/15 : Toff (Endless Axis 446/500)

Rise early leave

the messageman off

Take your instructions

from another sort of toff

I'll be a sort of servant

to a sort of aristocracy

anything to opt out

of this present bureaucracy

Hi ho the messageman

surely already employed

by another more toff than I

and I don't lie, I'm overjoyed

no half measure this

I'm locking down the count

and three days time will note

to what my launch may yet amount

what

2.3712 : 7/2/15 : On the Spectrum (Endless Axis 445/500)

On the spectrum of

what you've got to work with

I'm in no place to complain

Keep focus on

the sunny thought

a straight track a short train

I could extend it

to all the earth

We ought to pull up our slouch

What would it

really take these days

to eject us off the couch

what

2.3711 : 7/1/15 : Fullness (Endless Axis 444/500)

Holding to fullness

typical scene

try to come out

of an interim clean

guess I used to dream

about a clean break

over the hump

call it a piece of cake

what

2.3710 : 6/30/15 : My Corner (Endless Axis 443/500)

My corner of this thing's

so very small

but I'm going to own it

going to cover it all

Someday soon

When this hard working day's done

I'll get a glimpse of it all

on my way to the sun

goodness gracious

all I care about now

is making the promised land

it's when not how

I've got a little thing inside me

I've been waiting to tap

call it a trim tab baby

cal it a bootstrap

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

2.3708 : 6/28/15 : Dumb Shrug (Endless Axis 441/500)

Stack this stack

higher

rally

raise the high

pie-er

never quite get

to the divy

the impoverished

the privy

So I rant

a little bit

rule the rulers

all unfit

raise my dumb shrug

to the skies

while the stack

mounts to

my eyes

what

2.3707 : 6/27/15 : Reverence (Endless Axis 440/500)

Mistake reverence

for a state of mind

oh I have blundered

oh I have been blind

give unto me

momentary clarity

give the dark and light aspect

momentary parity

I'll close my eyes

and put out my hand

and as to what I need

I trust you understand

what

2.3706 : 6/26/15 : Lists (Endless Axis 439/500)

Got lists coming

out of both ends

need to find

acceptance

and a new best friend

justification

valid hope

tolerance for

diminishing scope

a sunny disposition

in the face of

the whole tangle

inner rebellion

and a new secret

angle

what

2.3705 : 6/25/15 : Paragon (Endless Axis 438/500)

I'm also lucky

despite small means

behold the

paragon

who cooks and cleans

no mansion no

no fancy car

I've got my own

small star

as long as I can

follow it to where you are

what

2.3704 : 6/24/15 : Hut (Endless Axis 437/500)

Perceive a loop

a track a rut

wish I could

retreat

to a little hut

mark things out

at last

with pad and pen

light this

pale shadow

yes, begin again

what

2.3703 : 6/23/15 : In Hope (Endless Axis 436/500)

Oh right

that time of night

one more

in hope not spite

still counting

I can get it right

what

2.3702 : 6/22/15 : Roses (Endless Axis 435/500)

Smell what?

no time

modern

thought crime

all fine

long as I don't think

don't speak

don't blink

what

2.3701 : 6/21/15 : Pure White Pop (Endless Axis 434/500)

Cog Diss

promo

the 

pomo

Con po

no protest

no

sacrifice

this no hip hop

pure

white pop

no excuse

and no

reprimand

privileged:

I get

another and

what

2.3700 : 6/20/15 : Permission (Endless Axis 433/500)

Should have known tonight

came with stiff competition

Will I ever feel

I've got permission

just to be

not to say

not to always

with no everyday

I passed it

off again

Somewhere behind

this coffin grin

what

2.3699 : 6/19/15 : The Awful Thing (Endless Axis 432/500)

Everyone

got their rhetoric on

to talk about

the awful thing

stole his ideas

from

Charlie X

what's the point

how could I sing

climb in head-

first and pull

the hole in behind

whether

ever

was a long tether

but it came out to

a devilish bind

what

2.3698 : 6/18/15 : Inside Man (Endless Axis 431/500)

Getting good cheer

exactly wrong

everyday

in every song

this piece this scrap

this dogear marker

disguise the inside man

a raver, barker

reveal the outer man

a laughing churl

oh yes I reel and roar

oh yes I whirl

I'll flow it better

with a little sleep

leave all the beat up

good cheer in a heap

what

2.3697 : 6/17/15 : And Now the Mob (Endless Axis 430/500)

And now the mob

rears again

you heard no sob

I'm hard

and bright as tin

Modernity

will run

its course

and damn hell

me without a horse

what

2.3696 : 6/16/15 : Dayside (Endless Axis 429/500)

Put it all together

a new day side

right now

sealed with a kiss

not a promise or vow

and let this mantra

be your mission statement

still on still up

still defy abatement

Salute the morning

back ten and five

Shot the gauntlet

emerged alive

Salute to all

that turned up right

and to that love

which smashed me into light

what

2.3695 : 6/15/15 : Old Play (Endless Axis 428/500)

Isn't there danger

in finding the moment great

I don't regret every

time I chose to hesitate

I should be questioning

this how hard

I know what I'm dealing

tomorrow's card

all the same tracks

fall behind the same way

full stop I'm sick of

giving the same old play

what

2.3694 : 6/14/15 : Predictions (Endless Axis 427/500)

A sleight of hand

did I guess your card

You were high

and the trick wasn't hard

and another there

an alternate track

one time all religious

kinda stabbed him in the back

One time I listened

heard what I wanted

the truer reading would have been

the path's dead hard

and your growth is stunted

past is past

and for present

take this learning

don't listen to predictions

and keep those

cards turning

what

2.3693 : 6/13/15 : Suspend (Endless Axis 426/500)

Tell me your tragedy

your dying dog

Your anti-religion

the related flog

So short so short

So coarse

So fine

this ain't the

half of it

no finish line

You don't want my

pity

I don't want

to offend

But how I wish

that I could revelate

and this sentence suspend

what

2.3692 : 6/12/15 : Drop (Endless Axis 425/500)

Zero balance

full stop

won't solve this

riddle

with a bass drop

raise my hand

lower my voice

pretend

pretend

It's all a choice

what

2.3691 : 6/11/15 : Compound (Endless Axis 424/500)

The action of

the increment

gun at my feet

tell me to dance

in wet cement

but I will turn

that beast around

and it will 

work for me

I'll run this town

declare my day

my compound

account

registers a

ray of light

a start a slim amount

what

2.3690 : 6/10/15 : Sincere (Endless Axis 423/500)

Try it get sincere

get softer

Rise rise above

Still keep your dreams aloft here

chip at your corner

never knowing who you'll reach

You're still on the same

random walk

we're all on the

same beach

and cynicism is cowardly

and we need you brave

and you never know

what you might be called to save

what

2.3689 : 6/9/15 : Irony (Endless Axis 422/500)

As such I dish it up

with excess irony

I know this much

this jack stacks up like do re mi

and it repeats

and I repeat myself again

I used to think I was

some troubador slash paladin

and the irony

does not escape me now

I used to think I was

on the scent of Tao

what

2.3688 : 6/8/15 : No Habit (Endless Axis 421/500)

Trying to make

no habit

refuse routine

the icing on the cake

would be to unearth

that

ancient machine

but this smoking

clanking

ancient repeater

not my finest hour

but

at least I'm no cheater

what

2.3687 : 6/7/15 : Super Sleek (Endless Axis 420/500)

Why not imagine it

It's all been strategy

and when the pieces

Start to fall together

Look at me Super Sleek

what now elementary

Kick back watch the sky

here comes heavy weather

I am all tooled up

by a swift ten of high adversity

woke up and saw it

call it Super Sleek university

the battery

the counterweight

Watch out now

here comes the excited state

aluded to far from

the teeming throngs

I ponder the legend

of the song of songs

what

2.3686 : 6/6/15 : Remembrance (Endless Axis 419/500)

What's more important

remembrance or an early bed

I would call this indifference

but I've got a weary head

So many little things

to keep the machine from foundering

a thing or or two comes together

Still wouldn't say I'm not floundering

what

2.3685 : 6/5/15 : Lawn (Endless Axis 418/500)

Got my blood up

try not to sleepwalk through

another day

what hell you say

they give a dollar to you

and I might call

this one

guess guess who

because it all goes

rolling on

if you let it

and you may doubt

it to your core

but I get it

get my dollar out

ready for the man

in the stands

to raise the shout

and it's enough

for getting on with

I'd say more

but I gotta

check my bandwidth

what

2.3684 : 6/4/15 : Bait (Endless Axis 417/500)

Way too late cutting bait

falling for cheap tricks

everybody's boo hoo

cranky nursing bum licks

grim down spare crown

Sweat the days to leave town

it'll get worse but okay

And you'll just want to play

It ain't much but it stacks

Maybe someday it attracts

a teacher a blessing a helping a key

maybe at last at last a jubilee

what

2.3683 : 6/3/15 : Lawn (Endless Axis 416/500)

This ring won't come off

this day won't end

and I'll regret it

I'll regret it all my friend

And how to piece out

the way from here to unknown

unimaginable dawn

Maybe just never get it

Maybe get off my damn lawn

what

2.3682 : 6/2/15 : Stone Cold (Endless Axis 415/500)

Look at you again the rush and the cut down

another notch aother another scotch another shutdown

What does it look like through such a cold eye

What can it fee like to be such a cold guy

To be stone cold

I name the dark mind

in your hand you hold

and the method of your cold mind

Some come out of the cold

but all leave you behind

Look at you again the bloody minded wait

they must have raised you on a cold estate

and what's running in your veins I don't want to know

But I'm pretty sure it's bitter and cold as new snow

Because you're stone cold...

what

2.3681 : 6/1/15 : Silence (Endless Axis 414/500)

Seek to silence

the chattering

sought silence

among the thoughts

battering

Once I thought

the clutter meant a lot

Once I thought

Some high host sent the lot

Seek silence

only one way I know

it's not reliable

and I always

hate to go

what

2.3680 : 5/31/15 : Rubicon (Endless Axis 413/500)

Keep crossing these Rubicons

without meaning to

or knowing it

Well no for truth

I meant it well enough

but how was I to know

when I kept blowing it

And it doesn't come

with much satisfaction

I take what I can get

becaues you're playing

the long game now

and it's a promise not a bet

what

2.3679 : 5/30/15 : That Vinegar (Endless Axis 412/500)

Did I dream again

of old vices

at least I dream them with

the same prices

And wake mulling

Your last hour

today that vinegar

comes very sour

try to dial in the

everyday without habit

try to take the big world

little rabbit

straighten up

Walk it anew

do you see it

guess I hope you do

what

2.3678 : 5/29/15 : Toll (Endless Axis 411/500)

What's this usual

rigamarole

the old familiar

hell bell toll

What else to say

been there too

and hating being back

through and through

I groan and toss

the cycle dismal

the toll it takes

no entry abysmal

what

2.3677 : 5/28/15 : Flip Side (Endless Axis 410/500)

Format used to be simple

two dimensional always had a flip side

a place to turn it over

You knew where to change the ride

now it's always on demand

the shuffle the continuous play

oh I'd rather be on the flip side today

Ah the retro kick only ever

Works a little

every medium bows

every jot and dittle

but I'm so sick of the endless glide

and I just want to make it

a flip side

I used to think it was

the smash cut Jack move

I used to think I had

a whole lot to prove

what's the end of a first half

Sound like

not quite there yet

but it's a short hike

noq

what

2.3676 : 5/27/15 : Creeps (Endless Axis 409/500)

Bust up from the start

I knew it wasn't for the faint of heart

The try again getting pretty stale

While my mission creeps in the face of travail

A list here and a list there

One unwritten describes a pear

that's the shape of the going of the best laid

What choice but to drink the Later-Ade

Later the song the book the masterpiece

Later travel, charity, the fight for peace

What creeps out of the modern jungle

a whole lotta unexpected mission to bungle

And then a pin in it and back to scrum

Got to do what's to do from here to Kingdom Come

and try to find the moment and a positive vibe

pending a signal from my post-ismic tribe

my imaginary million distributed freak

more I don't know so thereof I don't speak

Call it a tall tale about hope

all it a course correction call it a trope

what

2.3675 : 5/26/15 : Fake Means (Endless Axis 408/500)

Try in a minute

to articulate

these things

I must not accommodate

these screens

false means

Promising to pay later

for foolish things

base butter

for the battery

and all dark thought

that just

tears down on me

what

2.3674 : 5/25/15 : Don't Call It (Endless Axis 407/500)

No clue

where I'm at

in this match

but oh I'm tired

the sad refrain

the book of days

it sired

don't call it a fight

Don't call it a fight

I don't know

what I'm doing

but it isn't that

I'll meet you next

On my true home turf

you better watch

While I establish my habitat

don't cal it a fight

it was never fair

was it Stretch

hey how's the air up there

If I pass back here

On the journey down

You'll know me then

by the golden crown

what

2.3673 : 5/24/15 : Crack It (Endless Axis 406/500)

Blah blah blah

and who's listening

another bright

pointless

dream glistening

waiting for me

to crack that nut

I've never yet

but

but but but

what

2.3672 : 5/23/15 : Unconditional Love (Endless Axis 405/500)

When will I ever get it

it's just the moment

and unconditional love

doesn't matter

another scratch-off failed me

doesn't matter

anything below above

no reference, no system

no rules at all

take me back to a full moment

pause height smoke thrall

what

2.3671 : 5/22/15 : Turned Out (Endless Axis 404/500)

Every expectation

turned out like a pocket

no matter how mean

got to grasp got to

rock it

I hate to think it

but push on the same

turned out

fight ready

still seems a shame

like there should be

some ready berth

someplace carved

my shape on this earth

no matter how I shift

my patterns through

it keep coming up

the same skew

what

2.3670 : 5/21/15 : Cast (Endless Axis 403/500)

Maybe a bouillon

a cube of salt

a little sugar

if not hey my fault

hell if I know

Just what I just cast

it's always now

now's always turning past

what

2.3669 : 5/20/15 : Well (Endless Axis 402/500)

This well is feeling dry

I've sure thought it before

and then yet found again

There was a little more

Said inexhaustible

could there be such a thing

the more it's used it's said

the more the great horn brings

dug with the hands alone

no metaphor just facts

So lay another line

See how it all reacts

A dark dream I recall

patterns a prison cage

I'd tell you of those times

but I'd reveal my age

what

2.3668 : 5/19/15 : Pre-Slack (Endless Axis 401/500)

Retract

the pre-slack tact

hardly a syllable

to react

I wanted the

lottery

feared what would

be shown to me

but I had to

Open the throttle

and growl

and let my fearful

freak loose

on the prowl

what

2.3667 : 5/18/15 : Cloud (Endless Axis 400/500)

Does it end

on a sunny note

no cloud to

grasp at my throat

bright century

four of five

salute the sun

and any left alive

what

2.3666 : 5/17/15 : Dashed (Endless Axis 399/500)

Every tunnel

every passage beneath

all five thousand

iffy songs

is how I cut my teeth

I felt the

killing of it

coming on

dashed on the

rocks

and wrung out

like a gong

what

2.3665 : 5/16/15 : Tracks (Endless Axis 398/500)

Many directions

little motive force

felt myself on tracks before

still wonder at the source

that keeps me twisting

unsatisfied

I knew I dreamed the old man's

coughing for he surely died

and how do these strange dreams

connect to the poison of tracks

both darkly leading

to some cataracts

what

2.3664 : 5/15/15 : Peak (Endless Axis 397/500)

Not feeling it

the light yet so clearly there

Someday someday

I'll know that I'm

nearly there

and maybe

not speak of it

and maybe

beyond

another peak summit

what

2.3663 : 5/14/15 : Though Dim (Endless Axis 396/500)

Resist the

gloomy urge

to dwell on

gloomy thinking

Still lives the spark

Still lives the flame

though dim

unsteady blinking

not put upon

a pedestal

not shirking

work's requirement

but still

here feeling strangely young

and no thought

for the retirement

what

2.3662 : 5/13/15 : My Back (Endless Axis 395/500)

Nothing else today

but to briefly praise

what I knocked

off my back

Wave that stick around

take shots about the crown

if you don't like it

how about the other track

Curl to be straight

I spring back from the weight

free and lighter

worth a toast

lost track of days

doesn't matter still pays

I might just recorporate

old gumption's ghost

what

2.3661 : 5/12/15 : Routine (Endless Axis 394/500)

All the routine hounds

I thought to emulate

And how I end up

and with what on the plate

dished it up

fastball

curveball

knuckle

Wondering at last

if this is where

I start to buckle

what

2.3660 : 5/11/15 : Self Hate (Endless Axis 393/500)

Is the worst thing

the self hate

or the no time

halfway to dead

or so

call this prime

it's all a

cliché

but I'm stuck with it

not really

but I'm stubborn

So I'm gonna

fuck with it

what
