She is the vampire of us all. So she supports us,
Fattens us, is kind. Her mouth is red.
I know her. I know her intimately --
Old winter-face, old barren one, old time bomb.
Men have used her meanly. She will eat them.
Eat them, eat them, eat them in the end.

When a person speaks a perfect truth
It is hard to get a foothold.
When they present a falsehood, boldly
then the gears will tend to move well
When they combine good ideas and lies
in a box of fictional design
I wonder, is the purpose to deliver truth at all
or to open up the mind.

To the Sons of Bitches of the Earth
(a poem).
If your purpose is to make others scared
and paranoid about the
repercussions
you might inflict
or the treasures you might take away
then its safe to say that you're a twisted individual.

the whole world is
the equivalent of a dream
the scientists say
that according to the facts
or the scientific facts
the sun will someday become so large
that it will engulf the earth
and everything we've done
everything we've built, every building
and every conceivable object that we've seen
will be destroyed
everything in this
place has an expiration date

Maybe Not, by Cat Power
Here's a dream that I see
I pray it can be
Across the land, shake this land
A wish or a command
A dream that I see
Don't kill it, it's free
You're just a man
you get what you can
We all do what we can
So we can do just
One more thing
We can all be free...

"quah quah quah" I wondered,
what if his pointless ducky noises
are actually punctuation
and it is instead his silences which convey the
important things he'd like to say.
I listened with that in mind
for several hours,
until i thought I understood him fairly well,
at which point, I thanked him
and then walked back to the hotel.
He had obviously expressed a few...

You understand that everything
has changed
That there is nothing still the same
The whole world has dropped away--
they dream that darkness
is the cause--
And yet i swear to you
this day
There is nothing that is lost.

As a very young child my mother gave me a book called Free Writing and we were encouraged to write fearlessly. The first coherent sentence I ever wrote, which is actually in this book, was written when I was five. It was about an Australian missionary who taught me. Every day she would say, 'I can see Satan in your eyes.' So, the...

the devil or some other blinding white angel came into
my bedroom yesterday, through a hole in my brain
and said yo lets play a game, you and I.
and I said, why. And she smiled and said
because my sweet boy, you've fallen for a lie.
