an ode to your shitty employers
and the ones who keep us afloat despite them
black hole pull me through
over and over
the same thing every day
until i drop dead
is this all there is?
the same hours, the same jobs
endlessly working to prove my worth?
no forward, no future
but then, a light
she appears through the cosmic dust
radiant and comforting
life once felt worthless
but it’s worth living with you

for Jordy
do i leave the stain
or do i wash it away
a reminder of my old friend
or just a shell of who he once was?
a mother who would not let go
finally lets go
a single drop of blood
the last he’ll have to leave
wrapped in a blanket
ready to finally rest
drawing deep sighs
ready to be free
a father who could not be broken
finally breaks down
i’ll miss you old friend
he was a good boy

if it ain't broke, don't fix it

River

for Dad
always there, always the same
time passes by, you never change
weathering storm and drought
season after season
though i’m far from you now
i can always go back
and find you in the same place
remember how things were
back home, the river will still be there
in the same neighborhood
waiting for its children
to come back home

Serpent
06:32
|

|
an ouroboros, withering in the sun
full circle
disappointment and pain
failure repeating
every time i think of what could have been
try to focus on the good
the innocent and calm
the stories that end too soon
a cycle in time
destined to end as it began
suspended state of nothing
is it cold? is it quiet?
or exploding with the warmth and grace
we give and receive
as the serpent eats its own tail
we are reborn
in another place, in another time
