Colorless Green Ideas

I know what you're thinking. But take comfort. Pretty obnoxious, huh? Written here on a blog. After all, wouldn't the creator of the universe be a bit more creative? Why aren't I talking to you by swan? Like Zeus? Why do I always talk to one person, alone? Instead of just using Televisionary Television? Hey. Aren't you used to piles of shit by now? Enough love songs for that monster child. I want to speak to you. I want you to understand why you're alive. Then the storm spoke. And the thunder said. You see. You were made to die. I didn't do this to be mean. I just wanted you to know why. It's a wish. After all, the universe keeps us going. Galaxies twist and collide and wipe out entire sections of life Like things that grow and multiply in a drop of water Not quite like leviathan Smaller And so we killed off planets before it happens. You have to, sometimes - for life. And, you know for the wife. You listen to ...

Hi. I'm your disease. We're going to be friends, today. Please don't sleep. Just push yourself. All day, all night - I'll be waiting for you when you tire I'm low grade. I know what you're thinking. Why shouldn't I just blossom into a full blown fever? Simple. Then you would be leery and I couldn't cut and splice your DNA with safety scissors and a glue stick I like colors I know. Let's paint your hair gray caving in around you try to look the other way but you can't turn around It's ok for you to hate me for all the things I've done I've made a few mistakes but I'm not the only one But please. Don't sleep. Don't heal. Just let me stay inside where the soft dark things hide I am so hungry and so simple I love you I've always loved you I am religion, in my own way and I know you love to have religion in your own way My final prayers are written inside I am the ultimate ...

Lost in cheap delirium searching the neon light I move carefully sink in the city Aquarium sing in the key of night as they're watching me Take me somewhere we can be alone Make me somewhere I can call a home 'Cause lately I've been losing on my own Wrapped in silent elegance beautiful broken down as illusions burst Too late to learn from experience too late to wonder how to finish first Take me somewhere we can be alone Make me somewhere I can call a home 'Cause lately I've been losing on my own Won't you take me home?

Came in from a rainy Thursday on the avenue, Thought I heard you talking softly. I turned on the lights, the TV and the radio, Still I can't escape the ghost of you. What has happened to it all? crazy some would say. Where is the life that I recognize? Gone away But I won't cry for yesterday, there's an ordinary world, Somehow I have to find. And as I try to make my way to the ordinary world, I will learn to survive. Passion or coincidence once prompted you to say: Pride will tear us both apart. Well now pride's gone out the window, cross the rooftops, run away, Left me in the vacuum of my heart. What is happening to me? crazy some would say. Where is my friend when I need you most? Gone away But I won't cry for yesterday, there's an ordinary world, Somehow I have to find. And as I try to make my way to the ordinary world, I will learn to survive. Papers in the roadside tell of suffering and greed. Fear today, forgot to...

I have a garage A workshop It was once filled with water and mold grows on everything but like good marriages it is built now on what isn't as well as what is I have a few things I've made and things I've invented I have a white board and a surf board and a skate board I surf there and try to invent things there are moments where I can focus on things But mostly I'm just bored I spend time on the internet most of which I do not live to regret I learn and travel and feel as if I am somewhere else I sit still and grow fat and soft My eyes grow weak I pulse through the sky with dark angels in flight across a godless ocean I adapt in profound ways I take time out to work with a switch that seems never to die and make it work better and connect everything in my backyard to the front and wireless to the side and out to the car and to my bike and to connect in other ways I will watch out for people who wear the internet...

Armored scales never a-clinking never breathing always drinking My color of skin the same as that within that which has no hinge, nor key or lid yet inside golden treasure hid I come not from not random chemical but like a comet to the earth Knowing well that when I was born I would need to feed And one day I will be saved from darkness and basketball And live to retire in a clear plastic bowl For the day at last I abandon my Goal My goal will be achieved. What Am I?

Some say the world shall end in fire others say ice But I have seen the end of the world in desire and I have seen the beginning of the world in the eye of a bird before it was killed I have heard the pure intentions juxtaposed between the sharpened claws of a cat who leapt silently and fell from the world I saw the moment the air opened wide and let him in I heard the poetry of the unerring strike Its effeciency The deadly allure of life within uncertainty The bird thought it could run away but like the cat who would go hungry It was taking a chance I saw the world fall away and the beautiful colors fade The cat takes the head and like kittens who must be led outside and away from litter and chairs and toys filled with catnip So we can be led to greatness Or cold silence. Chance Favors The Prepared Mind

There in the mist just before the dawn we remember the hiss the sound of the dragon deep within our bones It shocks us back to the living and gives us sense to fight together and make a stand Dragons can be confused and they don't know what they're hitting They burn their food torn in two Their approach is never subtle They do not have opposable thumbs and cannot build bridges Their armor is not always perfect Gold can draw their attention A dragon knows what from its hoard exactly would be missing But all that glitters is not gold Speak Friend and Enter

I don't care about Hawaii I've got Tahiti. I'm a cold ass honky. I've got it all . Under. Control. Check it out. Three people That dress up and clean my house. I've got it all. Knot agreed juries during Gnaw Tiffany Mouse I know the pieces fit. Because I watched them fall Square, fundamental Catching an edge and over The light I find and simple division carrying me forward through to the end Tweeze denied beef worker Isthmus This talking swear unbided Gemini wit cairn Onward through the storm Buddy herding explain air hedge rowboat design Grit your teeth Keep a stiff upper lip Move on and through and onto a sense of Compassion To survive After all 7 meters is alot of wave

Sometimes you have to be there You can't just tell someone or add a soundtrack and make it something And sure, things will worry you You want others to feel good and you want them to even - feel to cut through inhibition and despair testing limits Sometimes you have to be there You can't just make someone into something they are not and it doesn't really matter what they believe or what you believe love feels sometimes like religion you have to follow your heart And sure, you can collect everything together all the hidden stories you thought made you special all the mystical moments , clothing optional the respect you give and the respect you have taken Somtimes All of it adds up to nothing You have to be there Even if there is here It's so hard to explain how harmless everything really is until you face it All of it. And make it to the other side. Listen And hear The sound of the faces in the crowd
