how far from the future?
miss you buckets, on your mark
i'm standing in a diamond
selling rain on Rubik's ark
funny how it stings
as if i never had a clue
i'm crying at the oranges
til i'm out of sight & blue
shoot
nightlight in the hallway, y'all
shadows turn to crows
in all this world there's nothing
like your love & what it know
first light feeds a window
& a window tells a tale
sweet Santa Lucia knows
the bull dreaming in braille
sheeeeyoot

tell me when the light strikes four
do you sing a tune of time before
do you lean into an untamed fire
see me sink into the forest floor
lead a way thru the branches
we put a good math on the tree
there's bells a six, an angelus
and emeralds on the breeze
chances answer
hold the hand
park the van
i'm telling you the slang i've tasted
it don't amount to even half a truth
when i lean into the unsung aspect
i hear the hymns of me and you
will your eyes ever wonder
will you heart walk back alone
tell me when the light strikes four
do you sing into a dying phone
ancient chaos
take me home
our lockstep gait was traded in
for cameo clothes and cold chagrin
the space between us tripled twice
a specter lectures paradise
oh i'm such an animal but i
i got a love to memorize
and when i wake it's no surprise
you decide i'm gone

growing up i was a downriver star
tying a motown frown around a candy bar
i was skipping stones at the reservoir
beauty be the dumb who hear so far
shoot!
was i doggin cigs in the woods? you bet
my shadow my echo my best cassette
i got sunday comics & the dead gazettes
& i’m gonna set fire to the alphabet
there’s a long hair in a lawn chair
my brother my man my guy
“imagine there’s no music
bro it’s easy if you try”
shoot!
that same dude lost it bagging gas
& now he sleeps inside the grass
so we hang a jersey on the overpass &
we count the cars as they roll past
under a sky like teleprompter glass
sky like teleprompter glass
sky like teleprompter glass

Good Look

i'm heading toward an exit
and the elements beyond
i'm elsewhere, i'm out of pocket
if you call, i won't respond
i sashay down a quiet hall
where all the smoke's a mirror
you waterboard a readymade
and leak a bunko tear
with lips that hiss the opposite
of hey, i'll see you soon
and hearts that pledge allegiance
to a carton kind of moon
oh troubled friends, who half assed
all this grandeur on demand
now lean on schemes and try
to whistle "so long, marianne"
it's a good look to be leaving
no more kayfabe in the ring
i've settled every grievance
wrapping daylight in a sling
where broken heirs retain a flair
for never climbing out
of debt but bet on placing first
in trivia and doubt
in chambers packed w/ forced applause
and uniform distress
there's champagne for the good you do
and advil for the rest
i cut across the parking lot
and start my car with pride
my lane intact, i'm glad, in fact,
the aftermath abides
it's a good look to believe in
no more kayfabe in the ring
i've settled every grievance
i'm taking the world under my wing
under my wing
