in a dream I was a warewolf...


--------------------------------------------

Broken sundown loverless showdown.
Gun hip swollen lip bottle sip. Yeah, I suck dick.
Loose grip on gravity falls. Sky blinding, crumbling walls.
River sweep away my memories of Children's things.
Before the yearning song of flesh on flesh,
young hearts burst open wounds bleed fresh
...

I'm a shake you off though, get up on that horse
ride into the sunset: look back with no remorse

...

I don't mean to close the door but,
for the record, my heart is sore.
You blew through me like bullet holes
left stains on my sheets and stains on my soul
You left me broke down begging for change
had to catch a ride with a man who was deranged
He had your hands and my father's face.
Another western vampire- different time same place

I'm a shake you off though get up on that horse
and ride into the sunset look back with no remorse

Now that I’m alone I feel the lonely brokenness
Of all the wicked avenues I’ve ever sold my love on
All these moments of meekness and trembling subsided
In the outright abandon of this orphan child.
Home is on the highway, living on soft bread and solace
I guess I’m waiting for nightfall or a solar eclipse
And to wake up half-empty
Only to be filled again with mourning…
He’s my evil shadow dove; My black Palamito
Can’t break him like a diamond skull;
I can’t seem to do so. Can’t just rub him out like the
Mob used to do so. Like memories of porno and tearstains
& tobacco O its a mini disastro
Bigger than the ice age. Don’t know if maybe dinosaurs
Could live through it, like the Indians and butterflies.
What’s crushed is my spirit, O I fear it is too fragile

I always knew I would spend a lot of time alone
No one would understand me
Maybe I should go and live amongst the animals
Spent all my time amongst the animals
And on the tracks I would go they lead to the sea
To be amongst the animals…

Oh I’m just a fall leaf - something simple and shy like that
That’s why my heart lies down beside the sidewalk
Like an empty restaurant filled with perfume and balloons
I sit and entertain the bizarre ghosts of my soul
His name still lingers maybe lactates on my tongue
Perhaps I’m just teething for a foreign fallen destiny;
Miserable, but mine. I look like his mother
Or Sophia Loren in a old fashioned movie
Slow motion I cling to my child desperate for love
On day soon my brother died made me remember all the
Subordinate feelings I cast aside
Maybe I had lied when I said I was ok
Just getting along like a little song that stops to sing and say
“Wild willow, windy winter won’t you blow through me
My heart is eternity”

I always knew that I would spend a lot of time alone…
