Posters
Looking at himself but wishing he was someone else Because the posters on the wall they don’t look like him at all So he ties it up, he tucks it in, he pulls it back, and gives a grin Laughing at himself because he knows he ain’t loved at all […]
Bubble Toes
It’s as simple as something that nobody knows that her eyes are as big as her bubbly toes on the feet of a queen of the hearts of the cards and her feet are all covered with tar balls and scars It’s as common as something that nobody knows that […]
F-Stop Blues
Hermit crabs and cowry shells Crush beneath his feet as he comes towards you He’s waving at you Lift him up to see what you can see He begins his focusing He’s aiming at you And now he has cutaways from memories And close-ups of anything that He has seen […]

Inaudible Melodies
Brushfire fairytales Itsy bitsy diamond wells Big fat hurricanes Yellow bellied given names Well shortcuts can slow you down And in the end we’re bound To rebound off of we Well dust off your thinking caps Solar powered plastic plants Pretty pictures of things we ate We are only what […]
Flake

Drink The Water
