right away in the room
in the early a.m. moments
urging me to awake
to complete morning requirements
...
grow up grown up i need you to
...
breakfast soon coffee first
needs are the headache routines
like the spoon and yogurt pill
stimulants for you caffeine for me
...
i love my love with all their faults
picture perfect frustration results
i love my love with all their quirks
they'll erase all of the hurts
...
right away in the room
in the p.m. after hours
coax them out when i can
my heartspoon my bellflower
...

SKINNY STRANGE HIPS
02:58
|

|
why should thighs be stained with ink
why's that paper rolled between the pink
flint of your knees
keeping secret dreams
...
months of sin i see the signs
motions of my mouth as the bite outlines
as your neck turns and twirls
chase, swallow, curl
...
beneath my tongue there's tangles lines
marbles eyes and eyelids so wide
skinny strange hips
from nape to toes kissed
...
arms project
skin like canvas stretched

LIKES YOU LOVE YOU

how does it feel when nobody likes you
cause nobody likes you they love you
...
i wish i could plant tigers under my hair
until their feeding sounds are all that i hear
your voice hangs me and i'm trying to brace
myself and privatize the look on my face
...
i am curious
are you imperious
it is mysterious to me
...
how does it feel when nobody likes you
cause nobody likes you they love
and implore to you that they adore you
and gush on and on and on
...
have i bothered or accommodated
when i get aesthetically sedated
i wish i could close all the holes on my face
when i see you i get frozen in place

DIMMING
03:21
|
|||
|
the tearful strange and silent nights
undressed, and restless
covered in calamity
and hate, as of late
...
dimming
it's reckless that i am
...
call my bluff and call me weak
it's fair, i'm aware
trying not to drown but not that hard
treading, and sipping

PALE MEN GREEN VELVET
03:22
|
|||
|
on green velvet where pale men whisper delight
and drift among women with honeycomb white tights
hands washed clean a pattern of nerve
drink and linger arrange and observe
...
oh no, how's it come to this
...
open to show tongues like damp sheets
then wrap and swallow the man that weeps
let him dissolve recline and relax
on green velvet where pale men cry and detach

QUICK SAND
03:33
|
|||
|
nothing will ever be enough they said
to themself as they examined
all of their imperfections
and recoiled into every flaw they saw
in themself as they neglected
what should have been corrected
...
when your chest keeps tightening and
then your thoughts get frightening and
then you can't stop spiraling and
then you give up in the quick sand
and then you sink further away
...
no whispers over supper and wine, coq au vin
feeling french, quiet and drunken
eyes sorry and sunken
trying to keep the hands from shaking, the tremble
murmuring 'this will not be forever'
lacing fingers together

LIFE DEBRIS
09:04
|
|||
|
how does one relax, when your days are free
i often collapse, when i am not working
...
how'd i get covered in life debris
plastered and smothered evidently
in the day to day veneer that coast heavy
how did i get here and when can i leave
...
the haunting harmony, of throats clearing
strolling in and out of hearts while whistling
long goodbyes are not my style apparently
...
quiet one with dusty lungs, repent for what you've sung
the silly words over the years you've scribbled down
scattered, recycled and stolen solemn sounds
...
cinematic cinnamon tan
lord i want it but instead i am
wrinkled burnt and always a bit camera shy
but i know no photographers so i'm fine
you do mine and i'll do yours criss cross it seems
knees together feet apart then part with dreams
tired dead, oh what a spread
thin and yet i tend to overextend

the Lambta Da's regina, Saskatchewan
The music's expression is paradoxically less solar and extraverted than the character of the seasons would lead us to believe. More than strength or richness there is an intensity, a sensation replete with freshness and firmness, which is remarkable. This deep and confident presence that persists over time becomes the memory of the music, possibly for always. ... more
