today's poem:
Turn the corner and my mind doesn't work
Laying the bricks in the wall before the machine stops working
Dry lips and moist pants
Fucked on hashish and beer
The lights dim
There's really no light at all
And you became a ghost
All I could see was yr auora and it scared me
Frantic in the playground of yr mind
Bending, turning, streching
Fucking my mind
Fucking in my mind
Fucking up my mind
Black lights make bodies glow like the gray race
Married to my mind
Married in my mind
Married to humankind
Touching, breathing, thinking,
Stoned as fuck
My mind's not clear
My eyes, heavy eyes
Red from grass and fatigue
Run run run! The lunatic approaches!
We're gonna need to go further than that
We're gonna have to go down
Watching the trails that precede my cigarette
A joint and codeine on the beach
The waves feel like me
Crashing against yr shore
And not alone like before

*Entropic Distance; Fragmented Pangea*
Turn the corner and my mind doesn't work
Laying the bricks in the wall before the machine stops working
Dry lips and moist pants
Fucked on hashish and beer
The lights dim
There's really no light at all
And you became a ghost
All I could see was yr auora and it scared me
Frantic in the playground of yr mind
Bending, turning, streching
Fucking my mind

Black lights make bodies glow like the gray race

Here's a poem I'm writing right now...
I had just turned 19 when my life changed
I couldn't see myself in the mirror
All I saw was a reflection of something that wasn't me
And the reflection was physical
And I'm sure it wasn't me because I'm not
In fact, I'm nothing and nowhere
But it's all the same
So I want to touch other human beings
And I want to tell them I love them
Because that will make them human
But I'm in love with everybody
And I finally understand what she said
And why we had to break up
Because love isn't something you lock up
It's something you give freely
And I don't think you can see that
I guess we're all different
But I thought you were more different
I thought you were special
Not a square, but a triangle... or better yet a circle
Everything was circles
And she was circles and the room was circles
But all I tried to do was make sense of it
And it didn't work
It only made things worse
I don't think I'll do those drugs together again
But I can never say for sure
But why does it always seem like yr either completely alone, or yr streched too thin
And you can't possibly have enough love for everyone who loves you
And you feel so close to everybody
Which is why I finally understand what she said
And why we had to break up
And it scares me to see myself taking the same road
And it scares me to think that I am no longer what I was
And I've somehow grown
And I've somehow become something different
Maybe better, but definately not the same
And I don't think I'll ever be the same again
So we put our arms around eachother
And I think about her
But I can't forget how close I came to others
Physical touch is the eventual result of the collision of souls
Maybe we'll all touch someday
And maybe we won't be jealous
But we'll still be friends
And we'll still be married
Because everyone is married to everyone
And I've come to the realization that there are only two people in this world
Those who have love in their hearts...
and those who don't

Here's lyrics to a song that's on Love, Revolution and Grass and a poem which I might turn into a song...
I've decided I want to die choking on my own vomit
I heard once
- I don't remember if it was Satan or George Orwell -
That if you want to be free you've got to die in yr boots
I like going to bed wet
So maybe I'll drown myself in the toilet as I go
Make fun of dying
Mock death then leave
This is why I don't drink... much
Because every once in a while you think dreams will save you
But press the levar and they're flushed like everything else
Maybe that's why I can't stand churches
Drugs drugs are good
Drugs drugs are bad
It's all in what you call it
Is it a drug if it's medicine?
Is it a drug if it's a plant?
I saw a homeless civil-war reenactor walking into a McDonald's carrying a musket and a sack full of something
And everyone has their own explanations
It's either too few or too many drugs
The doctors gave me Zoloft
My friends gave me pot
I liked pot better
If you don't do enough drugs they say you'll die
We've all got to go sometime
Didn't you hear Joe Hill say it's a lie that yr high in the sky when you die
I define drugs differently
And I don't think there's any reason why I shouldn't be high in the sky while I'm still alive
So let's cut the bullshit:
The herbacides, the wars and the jails
Long live the FARC
Spark that shit and feed yr fucking head
*Death*

My new tape is done. It's like 20 something songs and it's two sides of a 60 min tape. It's called A Whole Bunch of Songs About Love, Revolution and Grass. E-mail me or talk to me in person if you want a copy. Here's another pie link.
Listen people, let's stop kissing Dean's ass and start smashing the state. Vote Democrat? Nah, I prefer revolution.

Why the Green Party (of Monroe County) sucks:
They wouldn't endorce Harry Davis for Rochester city council even though he is registered as a Green and has been working with the Green Party for years.
They have a misleading stand on marijuana.
They rely too heavily on electoral politics while putting little energy into direct action.

*You*
Poetry is the pain I'm writing while I'm lonely
Scratching this my glass window with a piece of diamond
Burning the skin on the tips of my fingers with a bic lighter you can get at any major gas station for a buck twenty nine
And you are something I haven't quite figured out quite yet
Can you tell when someone likes you
Can you feel them thinking about you
Do you read into every gaze
Or are you just there, not watching, not listening
Just being exactly who you are and not being someone who looks at things as if they're mirrors
I was wondering, if you had the time, did you want to...
I heard a voice outside
The echo of a criminal
But there's nothing out there and there's nothing in here
I'm nothing
But you are exactly what you are when I'm not around
And I'm not here
So you can be there
And you won't even have to bother
Because I won't let myself be

I haven't had access to a computer lately since I moved out and we still don't have a phone line. Anyway, I'm living in the Vincent Slazer Collective. It's fun. I'm playing at Muthers next Thursday, the 3rd of July for a poetry night thing which I believe will be followed by a drag king show. I think the poetry night thing starts at 6. I'm not sure how many songs I'll be playing, but it'll be at least one. Immediately after that we're going to Philly to protest the constitution center.
