As the korean expose
For real how do you
not notice brass and steel,
rigid corners with cold feel
Throw eyes to the sky
Throw eyes to the sky
Throw eyes to the sky
Throw body into river wide
with bridges twined
for the blind to walk, bump
and wish, insincere
as they whisk and flow through this
Throw eyes to the sky
Throw eyes to the sky
Throw eyes to the sky
Throw body into river wide

Hands purple cold
Tributaries dry and old
Heart pump slow
Heart pump shiver and cold
Fresh new replication
Spring morning new green
Trees tall and proud
Me wilting in the crowd
Bird nest, peaches and raindrops
All so full and fresh
All so full and fresh
Cloud knows when to rain
Tree knows when to spring
Bird knows when to build
And lord knows when to sing

Family
02:46

Years pass
notice the ones still
family
Views rest
all forgotten, all forgotten
old age need and old age wants to see
whose going to be around after
Ones of best intentions
warmth inside, oh how I didn't see
maybe the world plans for me.
Stories keep some,
no recollection to the unclear
they were always there, family
Man gave up circles
everyone by thirty it seems
but are they happy?
Endless options kills the mind
but life is long and full of fresh
times to be had, to feel another
why close off? why close off?
Natural way maybe,
maybe a fool or maybe a fear
maybe a gift to the ones that gave,
family

Goose & Carp
03:14

Theres an old tale
Of sorts
As old as time
Man wants more than he has
Sets out to reap
Benefits that don’t come free
Sets out to fish
Lake of worth
But just one wish
Great mirth, with no work,
And all play,
Makes mere man anyway
A minute at the castle
Or a life in jail
Harvest the geese
And have no peace
A Meal for one
Or a drink for six
Special day gluttony
And drink until sick
Grapes crushed
As old as time
This liquor runs through
All these classic crimes
Fishing for gold
But It pulls you in
To drown in all the liquid
That you can drink
Be it goose or carp

Take me out of orange light
Take me out of moonlight plight
Let me stay up to write
Let me stay at desk upright
Throw me into 9-5 prison cell
Reception, primary and recreation
Wire fence, windows and solid structure
For second guessed checks, I cannot endure
Who’d have thought
Seven years of premature talks

Lion, Bear & Fox

Bore away bone
A fawn to feast
Months of meals
Fawned for this feast
Lion, bear,
Lying hounds.
All the same, no claim
And wind carried on by
With animals laid knowing
Honestly with eyes on the prize
Honesty knows every disguise
Thieving players,
Jackels or cats.
All the same, no claim
Wolf’s stake,
Belongs to you
Dare to take
Dare to take
Dare to take
Dare to take
Dare to take
And wind carried on by
With animals laid knowing
Honestly with eyes on the prize
Honesty knows every disguise

Spent this week fretting
Over trains to London,
Over planes to States
Am I running?
Spent this week fretting
Over time of arrival
Overing stepping my welcome
Is it worth this travel?
Awkward I seem,
Over seeing people, I wish, to be friends
Overstepping my mouth
Awkward when I offend
Awkward I dream,
Over seeing places, I could see myself in
Over west or back towards,
The place where I was born
Hard to connect
The fidget and the head
Where to stop straddling with feet
And i’ve read its,
Hard to connect.
But theres ease in opportunities
Where we’ve come to
well community is everything.
I can go, I can go
Three foot or three, thousand miles
They’ll be someone to
Feel warmth and smiles
but I can’t go, I can’t go
Three foot or three thousand miles
Without feeling, some minor exile
I don’t know where to place myself, in this world
I don’t know my place in this world
Place me in sight
Of green in the day
clear sky at night
and not just all grey
Place me in sight
Of red slow dawn
purple spred dusks
a (mixed) palate to look on
Uncomfortable in
Sea of busy people
Constant drown in space
I need my freedom
and Uncomfortable in,
Fields of still nothing
Never could settle in emptiness
(I’m) just not that trusting
I need to feel,
a sense of potential
for things to grow,
a stress of forward tension
I need to feel
a sense of tolerance.
That everyone can walk the streets
freely, without not fucking hollering
Is it too much to ask
to feel some love from others
compliment, encouragement
only together will we flourish
is it too much to ask
for some to leave me alone
insults in the street, and backstabbers
put my head back together
I don’t know where to place myself, in this world
I don’t know my place in this world

Portraits
02:27
|
|

Odyssey of pink trees, with blurred frames,
Family portraits on golden meals
Forgotten friends and fields cut in
building edges, framed ideal
Odyssey of exes, suits and ties.
Forehead kissing booth nostalgia.
Down state or up up high
Oh what a life, Oh what a life
Torn between living and regrets
Split on loving and leaving as yet
Not the most made, Not the most made

Sundays and Service
02:01
|
|

Early sleepwalk in fog,
Proclaimed by eyes not mine
Head in dreams of towels
Wrapped around needless body
Why do you walk
Round the streets on Sunday
Why do you read
Round the sheets on Sunday
And bother me to see, the fog
Late strides in the night
Meer movements twitch
Head in automatic puzzle set
Path towards words better than mine
Why do you live
Along the line of no time
Why do you live
Why do you live

The Third Life

Fit cream sink with middle tap,
Ran lukewarm walk setting
Appetite fro 5 metre dash
Stretch tripod legs over ground floor,
seek cell of creamed walls
Roll eyes around room
Abundant in silence,
Abundant in sacks of gold coined lines.
Cold man sacks confused with warm lips stuck to
newfound code of conduct
Electricity, coffee and waste
Throw to eastern wind,
Temperable unlike this setting
Day, stopped in time zone
Both foreign
Good morning time
Later than sought
Fought over daylight worth

It's kept underneath
we don’t see it till we’re underneath
the beauty, the beauty
but we don’t see till we’re underneath
I’ve been walking in the sun
gliding under the drip with no one
Nature so structured, reflections on river
I envy it, reflections of mine dither
I’ve been getting up hours before needs be
and still lazying in till three
Out with no recollection, but guessing
by these eyes, theres not much sleep, i’m getting
Seeing the light through my whisky ice
amber, honey, its a golden paradise
Numbness so structured, routine brings
I feel it, the numbness in my limbs
Seeing it in my head when it needs to be
and it gives me this fucking glee
Suckered by the book ends on cardinal, woman
and all the universal themes
Its kept underneath
we don’t see it till we’re underneath
the beauty, the beauty
but we don’t see till we’re underneath
Its kept underneath
we don’t see it till we’re underneath
the pain, the pain
but we don’t see till we’re underneath

Whimper & Whisper
02:40
|
|

Everyone wishes to take their dear
Wrap in grey marl sheets and
Hide from low winter sun
Set aside thoughts that hinder
It is winter and we ought to
wither away together
Hold in no clothes shiver
Relinquish held thoughts and
Enter heads
Through seen clouds of whimper and whisper
Truths uncovered, bonds form
Give up to each other and we can warm
