PICK A CARD

if you're going to laugh, do it with the sinners.
if you're going to cry, go run off with the saints.

do you want to be a thinker
a receiver, a go-getter?

would you rather be a waiter,
an instigator, a nay-sayer?

you know what you want between the two.
no? then you're not giving yourself the right options, you silly, little fool.

don't look at me, i didn't tell you shit. buck up, child,
your pick is your last wish. if you fucked up, at least you know

it wasn't (or was?!) the choice of your foe.

wipe the wet off your face, have a chuckle in the name of what you crave.
after all, no one told you morals were at stake.

[hahaha.]
which one are you, doll, time's up…
tick-tock-take.

FRESH.MEAT (IV)

off you go, time to open those doors, my dear.
shed a little light on that pretty little head, i fear.

are you really ready to see this world in color?
black and white is so clean, a little less mean.

straighten that bow, bounce those curls of yours.
spin around, expose those legs, like those whores.

because the second you leave us, you're tainted.
the hour you find you're fucked, we'll be running amok.

no matter your age or where you walk out from,
the song you sing can never regress to a playful hum,

because you lost at the game of staying innocent;
the day you left to find life, you opened yourself to strife.

THE ANSWER TO: WHERE THE WILD THINGS ARE

if you were inside my head
consider yourself well fed

with the chaos in the cracks
the mumbles in the membranes
against the angst in the abysses

you're in for a treat
if not a full-blown travesty of a meal

take in the thoughts
creep around the crying fits
and jump into the jumbled jokes

you'll feel smart
you'll feel safe

at least from your own mind

which is nothing like mine
because you can be eaten alive

in time.

DUSTY THOUGHTS

it's been some time
since the warm days

of sun
and catastrophes

that kept us sane

it's been some time
since the fall

where you ran
in to me
just once
and you...pushed
in to me

it's been some time
since those hazy nights

where it was never
dark or
cold
just warm and

hopeful.

SLEEPING WITH THE ENEMY

you can wake up to the demons
lying next to you in bed

close your eyes, breath a bit
open to find


your dreams are unfit
the nightmares are REAL

[feel]

spit it out, just say it already!
be anything but...steady
you've had enough of this (WHAT?)

mess, at best


just go back, try to rest
with the demons on your chest
pulling out your heart
leaving you relentless.

DEADLY INTIMACY

all i wanted to say
would take too long
to expose the truth

sit down
turn around
spread apart those
lips

you clench your fists
i squeeze my head

pushing out the brain
that makes me the mess

that you cannot accept

is this it?
you ask a lot
i laugh a lot
we...kiss a lot

a tragedy, for sure
this is where you come
and i gasp

pun intended.
but really

find me out on the edge
no one has to die tonight
not for such a muddled fight
let's bring this all to light

NO ROOM FOR LUST

there was a spark
an instant connection

a loss of words, extremely rare
a feeling inside, an exciting affair

no storm, only calm
something so disconnected from it all

divided so perfectly
pieces meant to fall in place

the best moment
is almost too intense
we find the right words
and only need silence
