If 06:31
i'm running real fast to/from the thought of where i'm going & where I'm not oh it's a constantly twisting knot ∞ if i was a sailor you know i’d be building my boat at sea but I'm just so afraid of sinking ∞ i'm not quite sure what i'm living for i've swept my ashes halfway out the door oh even my sadness is a bore ∞ yet i keep trying to keep waking up & hold my gums to the sun & look up cause life is The Love of Memory ∞ i find my hardships lie in all this lazy life that i’ve been letting myself yield to in the bed i'm sleeping with lays my shedding skin & all the fortunate things i’ve got ∞ if i was an astronaut my mind'd be full of cheese cause i’ve got that impossible disease ∞ when the dark comes to meet my eyes & the moon faints low & ebbs & dies all i’ve got is my crackling crinkling mind ∞ i am a lonely man, with my head held down into a selfishly younger love ∞ yenning to break through every door of every wasted floor of that gentlemen’s only club

Tel Aviv 04:07
We build up our persona From a razed ground a Tel Aviv & we graft our garden cities Long a river to the sea & we all need a... † ...Shell to call ourselves to A life to grow from seed As we urge entropic boulders up That spring hill we’ve conceived From our wasted lives † Can you tell my eyes are blue? That the thrill of the sea is Winding me to go † We cycle people we've been Live amalgamated lives As our skin will show All its blemishes As the sun will tan the white † Winter cleans what the sun Has sunned & kills us in its goal, Til two beaks arrive on The Reigns of Spring To duet us that We’re getting older than we used to be † Can you tell my eyes are blue? That the thrill of the leave is Yelling for me to go † In the shimmering mirror, Hides a crystalline fear Where you must step a milky foot to begin † Yet what I can't escape Is the longing on your faces Because what you want Is well within your reach, But you refuse the dark On the grounds that you can’t see

Porteño 05:23
I'm leaving it all behind, All those well placed lives I'm taking my chances as the ship As the wind on the highest of tides To become a Porteño: Live forever in a wandering life ❧ I landed on an island On the rock of the straight I took my time with my meals I smoked a cigarette & drank All there was to drink & laid with the sand hearing Hand claps & flamencoing strums ❧ I got up one morning, Left the Aegean Sea, So I did the same with Spain I steamed my boat to the open ocean streams & pulled it down to Rio The Ember City the sea glistening ❧ I danced the Carnivale I kissed all the pretty girls I smelled the tropical fruit & the breezes off sugarloaf But in my wanderlust I left The soft sand for the silvering south ❧ I've got this seedling Growing in my eyes I've got this feeling That I’ll find something That no one has ever seen, I’ll hold it close & I'll find it green ❧ I came upon fair winds, In its silver lining I danced the tango, a Porteño I wanted to know If I could find a place In which to let loose my losing mind ❧ I sailed around the horn, The Peruvian shore I found the Incans, the high lands, Old mountains of purple & gold Yet the winds still called me.

finding it, finding it found, a palace in the forest, where wild beasts are tamed and drowsed i walk through the fog, is the sun still around? i am lost. ∆ finding it, finding it found, it seems a homeland to some man, but the name to me rings false, and as i come upon the door to a silhouette of a girl, i’m undone ∆ is this Home? where the winds of my sighs, where the waves that bring me life, where the markers of the night ∆ in the smallest of the isles, is a house made of vines, its home to a woman with a weavable smile, who feeds you yourself, take this warning as help, search the sea ∆ if you cant resist: take up Molyroot and milk it of its juice, kiss her, try to kill her, swear her on your manhood lay her down plant a kid in her crown, Find Yourself Found ∆ is this Home? now send me on my way, songs of the sirens or the monstrous strait but point me home.

See I'm You 03:43
I have yet to find myself by Traveling the sea Well I think you’re pretty blind If you think that makes you free Well you know that I’m all right You know that I’m just fine, Then just keep me in your lovely eyes I think you’ll see I’m right = Attachment never leaves you time To find out who you are, Well I don’t think you Sailing around will get you very far Well you know that I’m all right, Yeah, you know that I’ll be fine If you keep me in your jewel a while You’ll see I’m something nice You’ll see I’m something nice = A mirror to see All those things my mind denies me See I’m you I guess you’re mine = Please don’t be a siren I’m looking for Penelope Well I can’t say how things will go But put water to the seed Even though I see your lovely, Love ain’t what I need right now Places always are There waiting But love won’t always be = Yet those things As tainted as they are Still bring life To an appreciating eye Look to be surprised, A mirror to see All those things my mind denies See I’m you I guess you’re mine

i believe it that you need me, but seven years can be deceiving & i think sometimes i’d better be on my way out, but when I’m on your island i see the seas you help survive in & i look at you in new lights lovely lisp outside the oyster I can see your bowing legs, & their skinny, I like the taste of The inside of your thighs When I’m giving you head, & when i touch your eyelids with my lips there’s no denying that you are something like porcelain & you lead me with your voices ˚ O i’m feeling like i did the other day & i know you love me & sometimes that quells the silence i have said love, & that won’t ever be false cause i can see myself with you, in the tiers of tears of all things the fears to mirror the mysteries, my dear appears in pathways, ˚ when i am alone i find myself thinking of homeward but the wind here lets me warm, cause it’s you breathing was there something out there? you know it’s weird, I can’t remember. sometimes my tongue it tastes cloy but at least it isn’t bitter. & I can barely see the rose while it takes me by the noses & turns my head from thinking into dreaming call lips or hold my eyes but don’t hold me in disguises i don’t feel much like moving now, i think i’ll lay among your flower ˚ O i need it, take my arm & make it walk i can see the road ahead but i feel no need to get there i can see waves crashing all around the shores but you keep me safe in caves, the springs, the sprigs of violets you hush me from the violence, you touch me with your parlance

Rose Cottage 10:43
are we on this set track that keeps on growing or is it like the river next to me that passes us by in its flowingtime slides along our troubles are not yet known see the scars on your bones look the treetop mountains blowing it’s god feeling the meadow that he’s petting, dreamwalk in a prairie hand the beards to greening wheatstalks now becoming golden, lay dawn in the soil feel! put an ear to the ground hear the mosses moving realize it’s just you breathing wake to find yourself in someone else’s life breathe! deep & sigh rub the pinpricks out your eyes believe that stars are past lives looking lightly sophie! the future binds around your brown hair as i scent along the waking brim, i’m spilling over φ Hold yourself up Sleeping eyelids lift Your head from the kin of The bed breathe a new history Take the wisps of the mystery Shape your skin with my Fingerprints getting up in silence Stretching in the Phoenix see Your trimmings blowing planting all New seedlings it’s sunny & you’re Atoning & the heat it takes our Clothing, slink over my way your lips (your lust) are fidgeting the Chair ‘neath my legs. we head to The porch & drink gin have a cigarette i can’t breathe from the mold from all the leaves it turns night again, you’re tearing, from being hopeless from the feeling that this is it, as good as it gets, give it up a while & cut your hair in spirals Leave it for the morning & see your trimming blowing Now dry your cheeks from crying take optimism Sometimes there’s nothing I can say but Take your time to see our life (our luck) Borning us everyday φ Iroha Momiji fledglings Fall in pink whirlwinds down to your caverns Stretch yourself out, let’s go dreaming Tangled like willows from an egg to a minnow Naked lounger sleep softly in moon silken charms lay in Its room till the sunshadows dance on your face.

Speak-through muse, and give to me a destiny (Daedalus dreams about new life) Say out loud with passions proud engrave my touch (Daedalus decides on leaving home) let loose the ropes and pines for home and sail into mists (Daedalus searches for his port) with listless lips for perfect ends you'll be jealous (Daedalus becomes lost upon his road) to find Everything is fine the Wanderer Christened.When I sing, Aoide listen and speak your trust (Daedalus finds the mirror of Akiko) Daedalus in painful blisses can see his touch fade into mist (Daedalus visits a rose among the grove) because of you everything is fine AΩ
