12 year olds dude 3/30/2008
everyone wants to be right
feel smart,
feel validated
but the ass kissers of the world
obsequious without sincerity
are shallow like a puddle
annoying like a condecending adult
especially one you are smarter than
even at age 12
and not smarter like most 12 year olds think they are
but smarter as in average for a 12 year old
just dealing with a moron who has aged 23 years past being 12
without picking much else up
you are never sure if they listen
or even care enough to listen
you just know it is a blank smile
a false nod
and an insecure agreement
usually I would test this by saying something like
"gas is made from corn stalks and used diapers"
and see if they still agree
then I would progress to stuff like
"you are a moron, I hate your guts and you should smile and nod if you agree with my assesment"
typically then I get punished
obsequious \ob-SEE-kwee-us\, adjective:
Servilely attentive; compliant to excess; fawning.

why do we let them in
to rummage around,
make rude comments about our curtain selection
or the mess on the stair railing

and leave without making the bed

Randomness of thought on Thursday 3/13/2008
putting up with me
putting up with my rodomontade
calling me on my bluffs
calling me from hotel rooms in Faith
raspy voice calms my nerves
and rustles my endorphins
requireing less translation than most
and seems to be solely operating the machinery
running the bases
or straight into the wind
both journeys that end up
where they started
fatigued from lack of sleep
and subterranian dances of passage
walking through the days dream scape
without the comprehension anymore of purpose
dryness of skin warps fingers
down towards this keyboard
they punch out the words
while I disagree with the order
and lack of originality
operating without commands
words try to create meaning
from lives gone past
experiences had or dreamt
and wishes for the future
rodomontade \rod-uh-muhn-TADE; roh-duh-; -TAHD\, noun:
Vain boasting; empty bluster; pretentious, bragging speech; rant.

Path of the Cobra 3/12/2008
I was born to be afraid
afraid of what I might become
cloak of entitlement shrowds
my diffident psyche
A mirror cracked in line
with a nose and a left eye
symbolism not lost on this
defining moment becoming present
glancing back to see a fractured figure
of what I may already be, or was
I am hoping for the latter
But realize my destiny is paved before me
Like a snow flakes enevitable journey to the sea
or a living bodies constant decay to nothingness
I unconsciously perform my duty
and as the world slows back down
I see my work before me
I am niether proud nor ashamed
I feel no guilt or remorse,
no elation or joy
I don't think I feel at all
I walk like an invinceble god
through the carnage to a place that looks calm
I sit cross legged
heartbeat steady
And wait for my savior
Thumping blood in my neck
the only sound I hear...or maybe just feel
No I don't feel
I hear the blood thump, that is all
The thumping slows in pace and depth
My savior arrives just in time
I still feel nothing as he asks for my hand
I will go with him,
destination unknown
to me.
I feel nothing,
I want to feel something
on this earth
all dreams don't come true.
diffident \DIF-uh-dunt; -dent\, adjective:
1. Lacking self-confidence; distrustful of one's own powers; timid; bashful.
2. Characterized by modest reserve; unassertive.

Circus Circus 3/1/2008
the garrulous mid twenties lad from kentucky
sits down at the black jack table
low on both social and regular intelligence
he continues to blather on
short on patience,
the neighbor asks him
to keep to himself
losing a hand
the stranger stands up
slaps the little bastard about the face
calls him sally
and walks away.
garrulous \GAIR-uh-lus; GAIR-yuh-\, adjective:
1. Talking much, especially about commonplace or trivial things; talkative.
2. Wordy.

F to the U from me and Bobby D 3/3/2008
I want to be Bob Dylan
I am not sure if it is his personality
both recherche and undefined,
his stance on anything solid
his way with words and music
or just his ability to say "fuck you"
to anyone without saying it or even implying it
Maybe it is just the way he can say it without saying it
with everything.
you walk into the room like a camel then you frown
put your eyes in your pocket your nose in the ground
there aut to be a law against you coming around
you should be made to wear earphones
need I say more.
recherche \ruh-sher-SHAY\, adjective:
1. Uncommon; exotic; rare.
2. Exquisite; choice.
3. Excessively refined; affected.
4. Pretentious; overblown.

Legalease 3/1/2008
I am but a mere amanuensis
I work all day with few influences
I tire before the keyboards in prayer
In hopes that some day I’ll change my life if I dare
But until the time I am inspired to cross those fences
I’ll continue to tire as an amanuensis
amanuensis \uh-man-yoo-EN-sis\, noun:
A person employed to take dictation or to copy manuscripts.
