tit for tat time time and time again

blue honey blue honey blue honey is back
MJ Rules I'm not supposed to talk about
Pistons type stuff

knock down, get up, knock down
same time every trip
guru of go meets gregor clegane

inside outside inclusion exclusion
you got tools, just missing one
and not even
just say blue, eh?

pulling no punches (for Kurt)

it was his habit to play his guitar as he drew his bath
he would lift the crystal handle of the valve and run his right hand down the faucet
under the water to feel the cold flush of october's icy wind
in that fleeting moment before the hot water heater had time
to force its angry cargo into the tub

it was his only means of relaxing, and he used it too rarely
if his hair was matted and oily Karen would eye him warily
and the children would always remember to play in another room
never asking where they'd left their shoes

in the bath he was a boy again
it was here he chuckled over his children's scattered bath toys
longed for ice cream and resolved to teach his son to dribble a basketball

the first time he struck one of them in anger was in a dream
too vivid to be real and too disturbing to be anything but an ill omen
he woke thinking of his father and trying to remember his face

no one saw it coming
least of all Will
sitting in his bath
dreaming of sunshine
and the open road

sunday my funday vol. 2

wow waiting on tenter, erm
never mind,
says i

wild anticipation
pained suspense

i must ask
dear eater blue
what sweetness've we rot
under our rare moon
toasters warm asleep under sacred ground
a spirit sits atop a mound of new black soil
yet unseen

inside blue midnight's spinning globe
our catacomb awaits

a tom riddle

i am five, unquestionably so
but you could argue i am really only four
above all else, i am twelve
increasing as long as i'm allowed
so i ask you, dear eater blue

who am i?

in/out

words but no fraises
minds but no arts
sounds but no earring
love but no 8

yes (no) and no (yes)

i've gotten used to it.

for a long time it was only poetry, spilling out of me in pitiful little bursts like some four year-old's pot roast farts. now it's prose - turgid, undemocratic nonsense to be sure, but prose.

certain concepts are off-limits, certainly. you can't take a slice out of an entire culture's (one pandemic upon our planet, i'm sure we can agree) lexicogram and not destroy certain ideas.

but ideas can be reconstructed, just as you can easily prove, using basic processes you probably learned in secondary school, by solving for f''(x) of e^x using definition of a deriviative. you believe you can't but you can. go look it up, solve for y, get confused, you'll see

september 19 2011

one sound i want to make
isn't a sound most want to make
it's in a name, so no way in
security by obscurity

noon blue happens to begin a mystery
one we can name
but we cannot name apples

ogres and grinders
new mary jane rules
blue honey and deer eater blue
hook twice and a you're finder

no deal to seal

you may ask, dear eater blue
why is one like two?
because of 3, and four, and five
says i

says you
by times of 3, and four, and five
says i
is one now dead? are two alive?

and we crawl back inside Blue Hive
to seek meat for dear eater and blue
honey for our leftwrist lovers lives
