Thumbing The Bones
Thumbing the bones between my fingers

Smoked bones, cracked limbs

Blank eyes, away from home

Hearing the thoughts long passed

Fingers in eye sockets

“Show me what you’ve seen

Oh denizen of the dead depths

Impart unto me the forbidden wisdom

That only one who has passed on can know.

Show me everything that your eyes have seen

And everything that mine cannot see

Create for me a portal to undeath

And take me places no mortal dare tread.”

I awake, broken, in pain, insane.

The journey showed me things

Not meant for mortal eyes

Still thumbing the bones

I sleep

Never to awake again

One should not tamper with the dead.




Broken Vows

You made a vow to me

To have and to hold,

You held on tight

And you had everything.

From this day forward,

From that day forward

Until you changed.

For better or for worse,

You took the for better

But left when the worse reared its head.

For richer or for poorer,

You’re much richer now

And I’m heartbroken.

In sickness and in health,

You were the sickest of them all.

To love and to cherish,

There was never love for me

Only for you.

Till death do us part.

We parted already

So I guess death

Is the

Logical

Next

Step.

I Remember

The cold steel pressed against my warm flesh.

The small cylinder as it presses against my skull.

These are the things I don’t notice as I prepare.

I don’t notice anything, but I do remember.

I remember what brought me here.

I remember you, and him, together.

I remember the lonely and cold nights.

I remember the therapy, the talking, the noise.

I remember the other attempts, the pills, the rope.

I remember the hospital, the bright lights, the rehab.

I remember the support groups.

I remember the rejection, the ring.

I remember the dates, the kisses, the love.

I remember the late nights, the warm fires.

I remember the tears, the joy, the anger.

I remember the betrayal, the fear.

I remember everything.

I hope you remember me.



Broken Wings

Blackbird fallen on broken wings
All the mute boys wanna sing
And I just can’t bring
Myself to give a damn
About any single thing…

Trying to think of a way out
And I’m just hoping that things will play out
Just the way I want em to

Tiger-striped sunlight
Streaming in through closed blinds
Shining on my closed open mind
Makin me think
Just about you.

Blackbird trying to fly
The mute boys just wanna die
And I, I just can’t bring
Myself to give a damn
About anything…

I think I found a way
To get myself through the day
And survive.

The moon is flyin high
In the deep dark open sky
Beaming bright
It’s all alright.

Blackbird mending his broken wings
Mute boys together leaning to sing
And I’m beginning to bring
Myself to care about you…
That’s something.
