drafted poetry
you give them what they wanted.
yet their visions still distorted.
blurred burps from the chosen.
alcohol is not imported.
yet they think its a spirit thats important.
wishing well.
cloned coins flipped to face us.
money wont save us.
money wont save us.
slaved by the engraved graves.
dust has tamed us.
it might even replace us.
flowers curl into the world.
cemented fragrance.
jesus , please believe us.
steps can no longer redeem us.

walking alone in a world of clouds.
smoke screen or choke themes.
smog or cigarette ash?
once the smoke clears
sound waves clog both ears.
mindful time.
mind full of time.
eyes full of disguises.
disgusted guides amoung us.
no direction is forward,
if you keep looking down.
upside the tough times.
what is the upside of trust?
im...
speaking.
listening.
observing.
learning.
forgetting.
erasing.
chasing.
the cravings.
how many habits do we have?
how many talents have relapsed?
the cold seems so cozy.
yet.
the sun still shines.
the moon still cries.
is the magic really there?
or are you just counting on the air?
how many hairs can compare?
how many stares turn to glares?
watching knowledge bring.
life to a prophecy.
future in property.
owning your loss.
how do you win?
definitions of existence.
where did it begin?
