Songs of the Month // October 2018

living dead but far from a zombie,

bite it bitter brains, i’m sustained off of my hobbies,

brittle bones, my mind zones,

my thoughts zip,

my lips zipped,

zapped, zonked, zen, zesty, and zealous,

no need to be jealous,

i’m just jellin’ with your hype,

i’m just feedin’ off your vibes,

rather than taking chunks out of your mind,

 

living dead but far from a zombie,

my dark circles run laps around your crop circles,

circle ’round and jerk away from conspiracy,

’cause ignorance is mighty spooky,

crooked capital cons caught calling out kooky,

gooky, gunky, lies sung as lullabies over witching hour skies,

i simply watch to write about all the ways in which they’ll cut ties,

 

living dead but far from a zombie,

my skin is peeling, my stomach’s reeling,

yet my heart remains beating,

it keeps in rhythm with your percussion,

and all of the sudden, i’m no longer paralyzed by potential repercussions,

sunnily, your singing stops me from fussin,

suddenly, i’m no longer pale-grey and grave, i’m flushed straight blushin’,

been over a year, beyond a official my dear, yet i swear i’m still crushin’,

itty bitty giddy giggles,

your love trickles down my spine,

and for just a second, i’m tricked into believing i’m still alive

Deciduous (Draft)

although leaves change w/ the season,
my roots remain the same,
despite these shades of fading green,
i’m tethered to this earth,
so let my seeds disperse

Songs of the Month // February 2018

blarin’ instrumentals,
barkin’, bitin’, recitin’ what’s on my mental,
meant to repent to repeal to reveal how i really feel,
shoot i don’t even know what’s really concealed,
open up pandora’s box when i spit it, trip it,
rap so fast i get tongue twisted, flip it,
playin’ lyrical twister with my mister as i remain a mystery to myself,
word bank, rich w/ ideas that keep me from quittin’ it,
kitten, purr purr purrfect, cuddly cozy,
cheek’s are rosey, hormone’s oxytocin,
pep washin’ over me in tides when we lock eyes,
dopamine? you’re dope, i mean,
serotonin, adrenaline, but we stay chillin’,
illin’, baller,
aww your,
so sweet, so neat,
so c’mon let’s lay down another funky beat,
beatin’ hearts conduct their own rhythm,
umm,
i’m singin’ outta key now,
slowly losin’ the illusion of perfect harmony with these piano keys, ow,
voice cracks as my consciousness slips,
slippin’ slidin’ off to a dream,
seamless, easy to confuse the two realities when you reside behind my eyelids,

so c’mon, freestyle awhile,
smilin’ for awhile and,
shoutin’ out rolled down windows, what’s good?
goodly gobbledygook, ook,
ah ha ha, now i’m just playin’ round with these lines,
playin’ ’round, well rounded,
feeling grounded, feeling sound and,
feeling you, feelin’ this playlist, too,
play it w/ me, play w/ me, stay w/ me

 

xo v day 2018 xo

from late night walks to rose colors, 
vibrant, you vibrate vibes like no other, 
other shades and hues fuse,
dull, monochromatic, often unimaginative blues, 
blew me away only to pull me draw me in closer, 
close your eyes or let your gaze stay, 
stay, please stay for days,
days seem to blend, 
mix mix mister mister mix mix,
kick it kick it, sweet as pixie stix, stable, secure, and familiar as white picket fences,
calculate expenses, 
checkin check out checkin out checkin accounts, 
accounting for, 
moving forward,
onward we go, 
where will we go,
explore with me, 
irrevocably and unconditionally i adore thy
