Dedication

Hi Spyro!

*waves*

Slight Angst.. This is what happens when I listen to emotional rock music. Yes, I stil do have A LOT of teenage angst.

Go on without me
at your side,
please,

do
go on.

You know it's easier
to pretend
to
forget
and not remember
everything and anything
just
blink and i'll be gone

memories are a
bad trip,
anyway,
you mumble
as you choke on
your metaphoric cocaine
you'll hang on to emotions
rather than me
any day,

go on,
just walk away.

bullets words,
but bad aim,
any way.

Cage the Elephant - Ain't No Rest For The Wicked

P a s s i n g T h r o u g h

t r a n s i e n t pleasures

        static

in the rain

the sky g r i e v e s

another passing
    
     of day

     drops
   
    in
  
    reflect
    -ion

deja vu dreams

                   (the same you've had before)

 flowing

tears drumming

the pavement:

        a tightly tuned skin

        where touch

    releases harmony

in resonance;

       peace.

W e d n e s d a y s

George street city slum
migratory cars in turn of the a(la)rms
of five o'clock time to go
home and dodge pedestrians
(100 points if you get the guy
            who keeps trying to clean
            the windscreen)
wednesday's tip the week
            t   h   r   o   w
 scales to believing
            there is escape
two more days to two days more
            of respite,
and teenage love affairs at workplace parties,
late twenty-somethings looking for meaning
in sex-on-the-beach
            giggling to bartender for more
phone numbers smudged
 (names forgotten)
            just call me bill
and he'll call me easy
            -er said  than
done with looking for meaning
between sheets
stuck in traffic
            again
mind wanders to
wednesdays
            pay days
week
        end(s).

Listen for the whisper

"The LORD said, 'Go out and stand on the mountain in the presence of the LORD, for the LORD is about to pass by.'

Then a great and powerful wind tore the mountains apart and shattered the rocks before the LORD, but the LORD was not in the wind. After the wind there was an earthquake, but the LORD was not in the earthquake. After the earthquake came a fire, but the LORD was not in the fire. And after the fire came a gentle whisper."

1 Kings 19:11-12

Sometimes it's about listening for the right voice...
