I’m a cute schizophrenic with acute schizophrenia
Double check my broom closet just in case it’s Narnia (mr. tumnus?)
With one eye on the pill bottle and the other on big Pharma
Look out my windowsill at all these beautiful wegmanns
Ask your doctor if you are nursing, pregnant, or may become pregnant
Pandemonium for pandered moments to come
All over my hands and pants and thumbs(disengaged listener “what?”)
Check the weather charts and then pray for apocalypse
So damn eager just to know what is coming next
Do I meet with Peter or slip into nothingness
SLIP
I’ll givum…
I’ll givvum my best happy face when I reach them pearly gates
Smile for awhile til my teeth get tired, then I’ll weep for all of us
I’ll give them my best happy face when I reach them pearly gates
I dream of heaven or 7/11 webbing, ebbing flowing and knowing where the rowing boats are going…
Gently down a dream to some stream where it seemed we were all getting cream in philadelphia(jeez!)
Healthier, wealthier, wiser prizes I just try to get whatever I can
Doing handstands for big man upstairs
(Friend in full blown criticism mode) “up where?”
(Shaky-handed pointing) “up there…hahaha….I semi-solemnly swear my prayers get answered like dancers entranced in fancier glands and pants with baby blue sequins on them
CLOSE YOUR EYES, GO TO DREAMLAND, WAIT FOR AUTUMN

feel my youth slip away like Gorbachev's grasp on the people
I stopped smoking weed on the day it was legal
I won’t roll with the roll tide...stay inside
Wait for my tax returns, cuz oh how the money turns, stuck in taciturn, the tongue it sputters often.
And the things that we thought we thought were wrong were now wronger(more wrong**) than we thought previously aforementioned
Grandiose dreams that never end up,
magniscope scheme that you can’t keep up
Now and then, i pretend, i don’t know anyone
Used to take pictures of the sky thinking it meant something. I believed in a greater good incoming. But four years and sixteen candles, one psych ward visit and a
broken lighter smelling like andrew’s parents house, madden and golden eye, so long the simple life. Hello complicated lies and waving so long goodbyes, farewell auf wiedersehen
Goodnight (to)
Xanny bars, classic cars and girls with auburn attitudes
UM
The new era of digital scandal
By the rivers of babylon we sat and wept
The empire turns toxic
a collective groan, a grieving severe
daughter babylon, doomed to destruction
A nativist prejudice
Oh u dont see skin color? Yes the fuck u do..what about when a white cop kills a black man on the news?
Sittin on the ottoman talkin bout the empire
Acting normal, going insane
out here on the physical plane.
I heard Jesus contemplated violent revolution
You were born as a prized possession in the spiderwebbed hands of destiny dancing...
Salivating at the mouthpiece monument..we split tendrils like a
Home cooked meal
The rhinestone gem, the bitch of the obituary, the way west Chester used to seem to carry me, glide on its roads and float down her rivers,
a handshake, a perfume and a shiver
Quiet moments of solace in the choir room, inverted spectres of friendship in an august bloom, boom! goes the dynamite
We’re still addicted to the things we didn’t wanna be addicted to
How bout you?

Shimmy Shake

Long found friend
Fell backwards face forwards
and I can't seem to catch your hands, can't pull you up or out
and I can't dance, but I know how to shimmy shake
Pulsate To Rhythm, move a thousand ways
yanno what I'm sayin?
Lets mix brainwaves like cocktails
Aqua cool oblivion
That burning fuel lamp in sapphire
You’re the golden one
The goddamn golden one
rather peach than plum, rather plum than an apple
rather swap fables than some facts from Snapple
Anti-up Annie sucks, the straw of its wherewithal
Fall back-face-forward-spring-drifting endlessly
I'll be birdwatching and burdening the bees
With endless cliché semi-okay similes like
'To love is to radiate to hate is to decompose
lazy angel marries an unholy Ghost but
she wanted someone who talks as smooth as a saxophone'
Singin'
Is the past just passing by too fast it seems
Fulfilling nothing forgetting all our dreams
Too late to say goodbye and never leave a trace
One more time i wanna see a smile on your face
Long Found Friend
fell backwards face forwards
And I can’t seem to catch your hands
Can’t pull you up or out
I can’t dance
but I know how to Shimmy Shake
Pulsate to rhythm
Move a thousand ways
Long Found Friend
fell backwards face forwards
And I can’t seem to catch your hands
Can’t pull you up or out
I can’t dance
but I know how to Shimmy Shake
Pulsate to rhythm
Move a thousand ways

Pauly's In the basement smoking all the evidence, I’m upon the pavement thinking about the Aliens, the Aliens are in the sky
Thinking bout the humans
I’m Losing my frame of reference
In a picture perfect pretty painted pestilence
I heard they got ya feeling downtrodden and depressed, Keanu Reeves on a parkbench...
(some motivational speaker somewhere or me to the mirror in an attempt to gain digital age enlightenment in the face of isolation)
Now when I say sex you say rubbing flesh!!
Need one more planet so it can talk shit on us
Just to feel unified with the one we’re on
Just like in football when you favorite team wins
Hope that will give me some sense of accomplishment
Hahahahahaha isn’t that comedy?
Laughing out loud with my Face in the paper feed
Fill up my mental with consistent/constant stimulus
What ever you do just keep me distracted !!!
Sing along, you’re dumb if you don’t sing along.
This dumb singalong, you’re dumb
Cuz you sang along, you’re dumb
Cuz you sang along, this dumb singalong
YER GONNA MAKE IT KID!
6 feet underneath of it
The cold hard earth, some sort of rebirth, one of these days you’ll float away

I Drink Coffee I Daydream
I Daydream And Dissosicate
I Ride West For 45 Minutes. I
Don’t Know Where I Am Today...
So I Retrace The Retrace
Flashback to Kickbacks
she hates superhero movies
Hahaha we had a good laugh
Now We Practice passing time while watching time pass
Someone call this kid an ambulance !
You wind up dead in an accident
But it was meant to happen
It’s One Day out then its one day in
And the end of tunnel lights our blindingly Lush
Just Trust
Our eyes will adjust
And it came to me like a lottery
Some Wheel Of Fortune Dream..
Where it spelled out what we’re supposed to be
On those spaces in the in between
And I Was Ready And Willing But I Was Hardly able
I Was A Manikin Figurine
At Your Dining Room Table
I’m The Anti Deceaser
You’re The Giver Of Good Looks.
The Great Deceiver
The antihero in the comic books
And I Walk Ten Miles
But Still Find No Solace
And That Voice In The Sky Sings Whatever We Want It To, Or At Least That’s What You said it had said to you
So Light Another Candle
Heres one For Molly Ringwald
You know the future's that vandal
it’ll be thieving all your thoughts
Apples and cinnamon/and those paintings on the wall
That mean something so much different now
From what you originally intended them to
You don’t know how to look at them do you?
just trust our eyes will adjust
Nice and (lushed,lushed)
