The paradoxal dissolving form/ A dream layering a dream layering a jilted ghost/ Fragmenting each thought upon the rusted wheel/ That ticks ceaselessly/ Treading always in the dislocated passing of time/ Time ( No one is coming to save you and it will always be at your back/ And it will be the thing to end you/ You can’t run from it/ You can’t hide from it/ No one can help you/ This is the end for you/ This is the end for you) I am merely a spectator/ Whose eyes have been shut behind the door/ Whose flicker and flame have been smothered out/ This encasement keeps my last imaginary breath/ Breath

In a house/ Just down the street/ There lives a boy/ I’d like to meet/ They say he died/ In the 17th century/ But I’d like to try / To make him love me/ And sometimes I imagine what it must feel like to die/ And sometimes I imagine us/ Waltzing down the open aisle of a church/ beneath the ancient dirt/ beneath my finger nails/ Our souls they sail/ Then and back again/ Through lifetimes/ Through moon phases and sunlight/ In my heart/ A weak fading beat/ There lives a boy/ Who picks flowers for me/ He takes spare parts/ Reassembles the valves and things/ He occupies chambers/ He strengthens their strings/ And when I feel lonely/ We’ll meet in the hereafter/ And he’ll touch my face and I’ll remember/ We’re eternal forever/ I know I’m just dreaming, darling/ On the stars tonight/ Maybe I won’t have to dream forever/ I’ll meet you in another life

I need/ Help/ Quickly/ There’s no time to lose/ Lately/ I’ve been/ Confused/ These seas are foreign under native stars/ As the static moves toward the spark/ Like a lightbulb snapping out/ I too will go soon/ Like the night closing out the day/ I too must fade away/ They say/ It starts this way/ Then it’s/ Downhill from there/ I think/ I’m okay/ I’m just/ A little scared/ These shores we walked at night were once ours/ But the static must fly to the stars/ When the shadow dines on the day/ You too must come away/ Veils must lift when the curtains are drawn/ There are stars in heaven/ I was wrong

We were weighed down/ Bending toward the open ground/ And I lifted my head/ To watch you fall from the ledge/ We were lost at sea/ Two hearts of stone/ Too blind to see/ That all that glitters is gold/ When our warmth/ Consumes our cold/ And you eased your grip/ Freed my hand/ Let me slip/ And I couldn’t breathe/ I just sank/ Quietly/ You looked away/ I couldn’t believe your eyes that day/ When you closed the door/ My heart it sank to the ocean floor/ Now I sing alone/ No melodies on my walk home/ No more your sigh your kiss/ All that dies must learn to live/ I’m no longer waiting/ I’m just here silently breaking

(You need to just undress from the waist down and someone will be in shortly/ Did they take your vitals/ Great/ What’s your name/ Date of birth/ Who’s your doctor) Tears fill my ears as my talons hook the table/ The smell of antiseptics and fluorescence are a staple/ In my lifestyle of ailments/ If you’ll undress from the waist down then we can begin/ Now my dear don’t be shy/ How many has there been/ Oh is it more than ten/ twenty/ Oh we’re sorry to report but you’re not responding to our treatment/ On the upside/ Delirium can be quite enlightening/ Wouldn’t you agree, Ms. Choopka/ It’s Chupko/ Spread your legs so I get paid/ You may feel a small pinch/ Cold speculum feels like a gun with this ‘white coat’ bitch/ Oh was that noncompliant to say/ Paper gowns/ medication rounds and contrast dye from Dixie’s/ Lick my wounds so gloom and doom/ The sutures are quite itchy/ In my recovery from failures/ Hospital stays for days and days in starchy, stiff, cold beds/ I.V drips/ I’m opiate sick as my infection spreads/ To my blood/ Oh God sepsis/ Oh no/ We must apologize again/ See we don’t take your insurance/ But here’s a script/ If you take two a day you’ll be right as rain/ It’s the American way
