Devil Dog From Hell

25 years old, and I had never seen a vulture.

Now 100 or more are circling my head,

Begging me for dinner.

Sweet hell,

I’m half tempted to give them

A taste of me.

Found out last night

My lovers been whoring

With the demon of pleasure.

Now I know how it feels

To be bitten by my enemy.

I’ve drank my share of two large oceans.

Maybe next time I’ll listen when

She lulls me out to sea?

Problem is,

I never listen.

Least not to the voice of reason

Or anyone who knows what’s best.

Can someone please tell me which direction up is?

What kind of vessel propels you deep into this yonder?

Who has put a leash on you,

My devil dog from hell?

internal dialog

No matter how much my body resists it, the internal dialog never stops, cant destroy it. with my cigarettes, or junk food, or my bad attitude, can’t make extinct the thing that’s possessed me.

right in front of you

like a worn out tune of blues,

looking like leftover food, but not so tasty.

it’s a dream of mine, and in time i will learn what it takes to

make the seed grow.

never know? doubt kills like

pesticide,

insecticide,

boys at columbine.

with vicious and preconceived certainty.

no humanity or humility, only cruelty.

like the beast of nature, (pardon me)

nature of the beast.

the nature of the beast

will never cease. like the internal dialog, never stops. can’t destroy it with my cigarettes, or junk food, or my bad attitude. can’t make extinct the thing that resides inside of them, that’s possessed them.

Voodoo For Dummies

IF you ever decide

the dream is NOT dead

I left you my pillow

laying on your bed.

There’s a drop of my blood

on the floor of your bedroom

from when the fan almost cut off

my long clumsy fingers.

I have shed my gold hair

all over your city.

Just like the cat

and the dog

that I am.

This would be enough

to concoct a magical potion

IF you ever decide

the dream is NOT dead.

Brazil June 9, 2008

When will you give me the “let’s just be friends” talk?

It took me 10 years to not do the same.

It’s really not kinder this way.

So much I want to say I cannot find the courage.

I’d do everything different if it were up to me.

The sadness I know, do you know a piece of?

You feed it to me like a slice of sweet cake.

If it were up to me, I’d do everything different.

Is there a key to unlock this prison?

I really had hoped it would be different with you.

If it were up to me, it would be-

but is it really kinder this way?

I’d sleep but you are not next to me.

Would I stop crying if I could?

There is not enough smoke or mirrors on this whole damn planet

to make me forget what you’ve promised to me.

Will I never see my white horse or baby flower?

Will I never stop searching for the one to set me free?

You’re not the only one who would like to fall off of this planet

and I really believed that we would jump together.

Feeling so foolish, and so much like a child.

I’d just stop breathing, if it were up to me.

Involuntary thoughts, like involuntary functions.

Necessity breeds invention.

Now tell me, what should I make of this?

If I could only SPEAK all that I’m thinking.

That which does not kill us will make us stronger,

but what about those who are better off dead?

I need a clock like I need a hole in my head.

The opposite of King Midas syndrome

where everything I touch turns simply to shit.

Drinking this wine, in lue of your breath

which is far more intoxicating, treasured, and sweet.

I would replace it for the air,

if it were up to me.

todos temos tempo we all have time

quando when

é para falarmos de nós mesmos it is to talk of ourselves

demônios não têm hora demons have no hours

e nem precisam prestar satisfações and need not provide satisfactions

julgam-me por minha vida judge me by my life

conjugal aparente marital apparent

demônios nunca dormem demons never sleep

e nem mentem and do not lie

One For The Wolves (A Song)

You always were one for the wolves.

Strutting around in their clothes.

A sheep at heart, you played the part

and offer your skin for the sacrifice.

You always did love to be the feast.

Even if it was to feed the beast.

Born into this world, just a helpless little girl

alone in the wilderness, full of wolves.

Now you’re done with me.

Cast me off into the sea.

Said you got to run free with the wolves.

Won’t let me slow you down anymore-

and you’re walking out that f*cking door.

You’ve got to run with the wolves.

You’ve got to sacrifice your love

and you won’t surrender any of your will-

but you just want to lay down and be the kill.

But you dont know how much I love you still

and I am a sheep, just like you.
