Flag with Two Holes

We all want to become the bigger

The Better

The unfettered form of humanity

The Noble

For we are forgotten and unforgiven

The Shame

And we hold our love dear, write it out

The Flag

It holds and venerates all we cling too

The Pride

And we plan to wave it high, so to make a stand

The Joy

And we don't forget that history, that passion

The Passion

But we do forget that flag, that great reason

The Hole

And we pass over our human strength and power

The Dishonor

And claim to know that flag like no other

The Fake

And we begin to make our flag bigger than it should ever be

The Hole

And we have lost our flag, our way

The Loss

And those colors bleed

For Thee

For Lasting Sanity

I watch the shores on sand

Trace the lines in my hand

And wait for God

For Remaining Humanity

I pump blood way too fast

Become strapped to the mast

Dreams only

For Echoing Brutality

I clench my chains

I tear skies from planes

Sweet Explosions

For Lost Causes

I would like to stop

This is the way I drop

I am one

Bite Marks

Would you like to shoot a soul?

Lay in wait to fill that hole?

With lead from a freak's gun?

Exister

When one has reached an apex

Of solicitous souldom

One may begin to question

Their external existence

And the feelings of impact

And physical power

Does our light cast illumination

Or surly shadows?

For in this interesting quandary of

Nightmares and of dreams

Do we play the deck

Or do the cards cast dictate

In fact, could these two dichotomies

Meet in the middle

Coming together to paint

My heart black and white?

*this ain't finished*

Wet Nightmare

As I trot the unforgotten
The known and fulfilled,
I sink under rain
Pelting me with the waste
Of a million lives
Times a million lives
Born on the backs of 
A million more

I exist I cry!
I will always be!
I will always know!

And the heavens open up
And my voice is drowned
The crash of rain to pavement
Filling up all voids of silence
With the pain of a billion souls
So I am silent, I follow
The grey back in front of me

I become a speck
A puddle in the ocean
Another rain drop
While the men above
Open their insatiable mouths
And partake of the fountain of youth
Sucking up dreams and love
And pissing the remainder out

*Ahem*

If you will

Pick up your boots

And kindly strap them on

We can begin

To engage in

Stratagems of higher functioning

So lets vaporize the door

Let the sunshine in

Destroy the boundary

Between nature and sanctum

And smile

with or without

Chemical Drugs

So, if I may pick you up

and dust you off

Let's out the door

The door!

Its gone!

So the frame we shall leave behind

And venture out

Into a land of shameless

Please open your mind

We are on the cusp

Of heaven and hell

So, if you will

Take the first step

so

we

can

go

Primitive

What do we find

In a streak of light

And a rush of noise?

What makes the heart pound,

The mind exult,

And the body tingle?

Is it the knowledge

That we possess to much

And embrace the erase?

Is it the power

That defies mental physics

And throws down cowards?

Is it that we love

Hearing the hands of gods

In epic arial combat?

Is it that we have witnessed

The most ancient,

the first exalted?

Is it that everything

Lays low and beholds

The epitome of primitive?
