Skeleton

Push and pull prescription safe
Lock coded commotions.
I'm a bomb of a big problem.
I'm getting explosive.
Handy lips and handy heart
Get in a little trouble.
Trusty hands that know to start
A small town sort of rumble.
26 hours without sleep and still we missed the sun.
Running out of fuel to eat and I'm running off of fun.
Touchy subject sort of love
I can't help but say.
Risky business being tough
Cuz I just wanna play.
Kiss this living skeleton
And he'll live another day
You're the only food he likes
Inside this stupid maze.

Dog Target

Like a cheap shooting gallery
Where you don't know the worth
Of the target until the game had ended
I'm a grassy dog hopping
For some amount of points
Jumping in circles for your shot.
This thought process is imaginary.
I do think well of you constantly.
Hold your slingshot and shoot away
Is that what you need to do?
And I hope you aim for me as I
Appear on the track multiply
To catch your glint and not survive.
I'm the target that's willing to die.
Crosshairs crisscrossed legs and head
Keep this dog on jumping.
Pistol shot through the skeptics heart
I can't stop myself from wondering.

Erebus

I can't lock in on the exact dimensions
And blueprints get hard on the eyes
So I'll play this off the cuff and see.
Every man loves a mystery.
Will I play strength in numbers
Or in secret sentences
Or bend the rules of romance
To keep your eyes on me?
I can't sing like a songbird or play to the beat.
But maybe just maybe I can stop eating meat.
So hang onto strands of my sentences.
I'm sure you love challenging me.
I'll feed you strips of moonlight
And wrap you in my arms.
You're in every single verse I read.
You rename all my old songs.

The Night Circus

They're thinking without spaces
They're not looking at faces
They're counting on these places
To go down in blazes.
I need these walls painted red
And all the lights made dim
I need to smoke indoors
Give flavor to my gin.
They're thinking without spaces
They're not looking at faces
They're counting on these places
To go down in blazes.
I want a better paycheck
To buy this girl a drink.
I need to weed my garden
But I would rather never think.
Buy me a better posture
Buy me another thing.
Give me some second chances
Give me another ring.
Some people have to do what
Comes first into their brain.
Some people cannot help but
Complain about the rain.
I'm itching for your eyesight
And scratching til I bleed.
I'm hungry for your kisses
S'all my body needs.

Dove

Fall into four feet foolishly like me.
Pool together our meager funds
and run
From
Everyone.
Sigh over the sound whispering and hum
That sneaks out between sneaky smiles
That drip
And drizzle
With desire.
Lines that format: skip code's 3.
I think we've caught the same frequency.
When its been catch and release games
In a county of factory fish,
Its special
To be free
Albeit weird.
Mixed metaphors: how you would me?
I think we share the same disease.
Hiding in plain sight,
Behind the abandoned a&p,
Grows some "new best"
In places we used to be.
I'm forced to put this to pages
And break my own rules
To deciper
This code
For clairity.

I've been sitting 'round and comin in last.
I've been sitting 'round and comin in last.
Now you lit the fire beneath my dumbass.
Stayin out late and gettin nothing done.
Stayin out late and gettin nothing done.
You came round and made the night fun.
Poverty line sinking like water tables.
Poverty line sinking like water tables.
I've got some food here if you are able.
Still world at war over again and over.
Still world at war over again and over.
You can hide with me under raggy cover.
I don't need food if I've got you around.
I don't need food if I've got you around.
Made you shelter out of twigs and sound.
