Will You Be Me?

i wonder if you've ever seen. the way the man in the lookout house looks at me. before he takes out his teeth and asks me to sign the wall. and i sign his wall with a heel of bread.

Wandering Daughter

I am the wanderer's wandering daughter. Wrestle the pestle for the sake of the mortar. I love as I breathe and leave as I live. My cast iron shield's a titanium sieve.

Walk Like Thunder

I have this new tattoo of which the story must be told. About the night I almost overdosed ten years ago. I woke up in the hospital with skin clammy and cold.

Viva La Persistence

i dreamed i thanked scott ian for persistence of time. back when steve and eva died that album changed my life. it was a package of pure darkness tied up with a silver string.

Velvet Rabbit

the cuckoo in your clock had a heart attack. the droop in your stock turned your market black. if walls could talk they'd say i don't want to shack up.

Utopian Futures

Somewhere the bombing all has stopped. And people begin to sit and talk. And somewhere insomniatic stockbrokers can rest their bloodshot eyes. Cuz there's nothing left to buy or sell.

Unrefined

I can't stand the way you make me feel,. Time to let you go, so I can heal,. Fuck you, sugar,. Fuck you, wheat. Fuck you, processed foods that cloud my mind and steal my health from me,.

Underground

my head is pounding I can't stop the pounding. I think it is going to explode. and kill everybody who's in close proximity to the place I call my home.

Trump Style

if i don't take to the highway. i'm going to lose my head. can't do things your way. gotta live my way. and the grass is greener on. the wrong side of the bed.

Tree Hugger

Flower said, "I wish I was a tree". The tree said, "I wish I could be. A different kind of tree". The cat wished that it was a bee. . The turtle wished that it could fly.

Tire Swing

I took the Polaroid down in my room. I'm pretty sure you have a new girlfriend. It's not as if I don't like you. It just makes me sad whenever I see it.

Time To Think

when they ask me what i need i'll say a capo, a lemonade, a dollar fifty. a big bathtub, prosthetic feet, diana ross' role in mahogany. so i can hang out with billy dee williams, and he can hang out with me.

The Sound Of Ataris

the sound of ataris kills working class men. who know that they'll never drive fast cars again. heroes are broken the cello is burnt. pictures of babies are covered with dirt.

The Competition

I never wanted to be better than my friends. I just wanted to prove wrong the people in my head. the ones who told me I'd be better of dead. the ones who told me that I would never win.

Talking Ernest

shoulda heard what my talking ernest said to your talking pee-wee. he said "last night that furby it was talkin to me. talking in the language of love".

Sunbeams And Some Beans

And the weatherman said to my friend,. "What's your name?". My friend said, "Write yours down, mine is almost the same.". Erase the "S" and "M" in their place put a "G" and "R".

Stink Mama

light as a feather stiff as a board. light as a feather stiff as a board. stink mama come ride my rollercoaster of love. tell me that i'm good (tell me that i'm cute).

Solid And Strong

Mama, it is raining leaves,. It's snowing leaves,. They're falling down,. I love the way she says that and,. I love this part of town.. I love being surrounded by so many kinds of trees,.

So Nice So Smart

I was quiet as a mouse. When I snuck into your house. And took roofies with your spouse. In a nit and out a louse. . Lice are lousy all the time. They suck your blood, drink your wine.

So Far To Go
