(posting this on profile seemed more trouble than it's worth so here it is - my 1st [and meh Last] thread [I kids I kids but yea typically I wouldn't do this obv] )


[Indefinite Nocturne (Where Bridges Come to Burn)]

Gone from past where
We must’ve had a reason to leave
The moon, the air and us - running out of places to go

Soon to now is too late
I only felt the weather retreat
To rain on paradise – sun has found complacent its glow

Only feeling traces of the weather when it stops
The absence and the pause between the moisturizing drops
This dark morning
No cathedral bell is chiming
all orchestrated in the worst sense of timing

Let this hour be the time we can believe in things we trust
Nocturne will not turn off - wind thinned out, collect the dust
This dark morning
Cock-a-doodle-doo won’t be heard
nothing will be there to hear it - not even itself

I’m not waiting for the cars, not playing chicken in the street
They will just keep going race to see who they can beat
Driving away from themselves on a dark morning
Pot of coffee fresh not hot not ready
motor vehicles, motor controls at best unsteady

Stand in our only way with nothing standing in our way
But our own reasons for going where we can’t go anyway
We forgot how to call it a day
And the dawn won’t come to remind us

Lonely time and space come together in small, socializing hops
And perhaps defends its laws when the noise arising pops
Loud enough to go deaf in the dark of the morning
Weather channels morning news are off air

Following the leader but I swear they’re chasing me down
going in and out of every exit, any entrance - fleeing town
the jester, the town fool, the martyr, the clown
all other-worldliness secrets ubiquitously drown
all people, places, things - extinction of the noun

world-reviled - freely mingling amongst the exiled
domestication of a dead joke viral virii gone wild
necessary misinformation nonchalantly, erroneously compiled
swap places to loosely contain the inner-adult within an outer-child

Bridges brightly ablaze have the benefit
of everything now in doubt
traffic facing non-euclidian design
perpetual U-turn/infinite turnpikes en route

Breakfast eggs and toast, hated the most - got thrown the fuck out
Hydrochloric acid so as to rinse your venomous mouth out
eliciting the faintest gesticulations
and convicingly glib, melodramatic pout
revisiting the heinous defenestrations
that crimsonly drip from a monochromatic spout

Drawing the infinitesimal straw, for the random unlucky burden
Of going past the dressing curtain, only to wear the same shirt in
An abysmal amassing of nothing will rise in this dark latter AM

We’re all proud of our evening’s scheduled plans
Celebrate severing of the ties; scissors, blood, hands
Everyone understands the mutual understanding
that nobody understands
This is the darkest day
The dawn already long behind us
but draws ominously near

Bridges will burn
An indefinite nocturne
The balance will turn
Those resetting the clock learn

Out of concern
Coat and prep it in crock churn
Butter bread and yearn
For precedence to adjourn

sun’s eminent return

Yawn, one last stair, one last no hallows eve
Faster beating’s what you’ve always
inadvisably worn on the sleeve
'Where' ends where it does – unrenowned; too wasted to know
too many coincidental convergings in a row
serendipitous jinxes will only serve to bring you oh, so low
unveiling a fate agonizingly slow

Wounds allowed to mutate
Bridges burning brighter than any neon hope
The morning carapace – Twenty hours patience to go
good intentions pave the declining path
the only path we'll ever know

Pissing on the lawn is all we have left
when the sky won’t change to save the day
a cold shower couldn’t wash away empirical yet esoterical evidence
circles of life pulselessly reign in artic solstice
enveloped in grey - will we die out... are we going away

the unstable equinox prying at pandora’s box
equator becomes negator with 'soon-to-now' eclipsing 'later'
the moodiness we share is what we breathe that chokes the air

inhaling itself through nightfall exhausting the day that once was the sun’s
leaving our human tapestry red in the eye looking up off its face the water runs
a hell of a day - turn the light out; throw it away

To look at the bright side is wasting your while
Waiting for anything you’ll fade in denial
Children are shadows in a dead world on trial
Supplying the dying with a sigh and easy smile

I understood about as much as I do when I read the likes of Keats or Whitman which means it's gotta be good. I'm an incorrigible philistine when it comes to poetry.

a lot of my writings embrace n exude absurdity a bit much but usually as a metaphorical/satirical commentary on whatever I'm conveying in riddles as opposed to literal face-value stuff. this one is more like a looming harbinger of contradiction n dark illumination or some pretentious shit to that effect hehe usually my writings are more of a humorous or calculated weirdness type - also personal ones I wrote to cope with depression.

I appreciate you givin it a look, Clippy. the main discord chat I'm in comprised of many longtime friends' consensus is that it's too dark or somethin xD wut's wrong with art imitating reality, I thought that format-genre was established n 'accepted' o _ O I'll try to whip up one that's less dense next time maybe...

Hay Pennies (The Dreaming Binge)
--------------------------------

Someone else lives in the house that's in my dreams
across the street from the railroad where the plan is not to go home
when I shut my eyes all bets are off, a silent response, a 'whatever' scoff
and when I'm better off God help those who're in my way
The alarm works but nothing is going right
a pattern deeply playing its game; truth and death through the night
things feel possible that have been tied up and strangled since the longest
the consistent daily lies that hold your head up make you look honest
someone is knocking on the door
someone will have to answer
someone will be waiting, standing up while sleeping
it is my dream to wake you up

Someone else lives in the house that's in my dreams
across the street from the railroad that I swore bred evil monsters
monsters the new residents will have to deal with
but they're monsters too, so they don't care much
and I don't care anymore as well
I'm under, I'm drowning, how much asleep could I have fell
it's summer, and now things are where I can find them
roll over to find a new position in my sweaty drudgery
of indulgent hedonistic waste-time-kill bullshit luxury
someone is knocking on my door
someday I'll have to answer
no one will be waiting if I keep it up and keep sleeping
it is my dream to be your nightmare

so don't wake me up today, let me roam outside of this shell
don't wake me to experience hell, don't buy me things that I'll just sell
don't ring a bell, don't wake me to experience hell
don't play games like show and tell, don't wake me up today
please let me roam don't wake me to experience fucking hell please
don't wake me until I can finally wake you

I walk the dream down
I talk the dream down cold
I'm fast asleep, but not for long
but that's what everybody thinks
pennies-I-just-got-from-heaven
Were the ones from the well, can't forget
this little bird's not gonna fly just yet
I can't believe, wait yes I can
it's obvious that everybody thinks
there's a beginning
and an end.

Across the street from the railroad where the plan is not to go home
my girl is new, her bosom soft
close her eyes, steal the breath to cough
whatever I do, what throws her off
she won't pinch me so she won't leave me
Am I talking out loud, does my jibberish make enough sense
to tell the world to go away, who would listen to what I say
they don't care much, and I don't care anymore as well
a dream come true, dragging you down the hall
your wake-up call

So don't wake me up today, let me roam outside of this shell
don't wake me to experience hell
got my shit together but I was dreaming

don't buy me things that I'll just sell, don't ring a bell
don't wake me to experience hell
got a hold of my life finally but it was just a dream

don't play games like show and tell, don't wake me up today
please let me roam don't wake me to experience fucking hell please
don't wake me till I can finally wake you
a dream come true, dragging you down the hall
your wake-up call
my wake up call
it's a call I have to answer
but there is no right answer
I'm fucked

(pause)

...pennies-from-heaven
Were the ones from the well, can't forget
the proverbial bird won't fly just yet
I can't believe, wait yes I can
it's obvious that everybody thinks
(there's a beginning and an end
well everybody thinks)2x
there's a beginning and an end
doesn't apply from 'round the place I dream
there's no beginning and never an end
cuz it's not what anyone of us would create

I walk the dream down...
with one eye half-open, half under the cover
I talk the dream down cold...
my dream's to get my rest but never recover
I'm walkin the dream down...
like all the rest who say that they've, lost their nerve
I'm talkin the dream down cold
getting the rest that I may or may, not deserve
