Finely Settled
In time I was mended by a thicker patchwork. But you reappeared, descended on fleeting things; things as tiny, frail, and bone-deep as when they first pulled you down to me. And you are at once as... |

Crying shame. Just bloom out of this rancid casing. Dim light shows my eventual destination, but it seems to make my stomach into a dumpster. And I feel a dump truck turning it over, empty. I will... |

The Mostly Honored Dead
Weeknights in short sleeve shirts. My stool edges further from the bar as my legs kick for their last breath, I'm strangling it. Creep out in the heat, half a ghost, and the spirits I pass are so... |

Prosthetics
Serial wreckage; a progression of sorry tales told by me, to me. I remember it all so very clearly, so why the recounts? And oh god now it's starting fresh; another girl to creep over the pictures... |

Seriously, what stupidity. Microwaves and ovens don't clean themselves. I should know, I never eat. Honestly, leave me to my crusty heartaches. The wrestlers on TV mimic the dramas inside me: it... |

What tired breath. Grab the line fastened through the forest, hold tight and find your way. But for us, it's tied in circles. Holy hell is this a drag, to be caught in heaven long enough to see that... |

A Constant
I misbehaved. Two years discounted, sold for half a song, and now I'm floating in a bar tab through life. It seemed so damaging, like every lie was a hole in a white sheet. But it's a truth that... |

Watching an Ecosystem
A halt in living; the march stops in the ankle deep. I set about mending and now I'm paused in disrepair. Some paper fable led me here. It's already happening: trees breath carbon-dioxide easy, as... |

The Start of Something Separated and Beautiful
Panes looking up at the sky; frames are miles, miles wide. Who told them all, how did they know? A suspicion, a widespread one; is there a best way to put it? I'm just swatting at flies and taking... |

The High and Low (revised, final)
The weight is set. Sterile steps leave a blameless trail. Oh, if I were to lose my footing! In for a haul a ways out there, out there. We are two half-lifes and we are eroding ourselves; how long... |

More rehashed material! I think it's improving, though. Morning light through vertical blinds, and covers swept aside: I've been reaching again. Some dreams know me better than I'd like. I should... |

Vocal critique, please!
The song is called Homeless on my profile. It's just the raw takes with some minor mixing; I know they did put a plugin on my voice. I'm getting it mixed for real once I get the session. But anyways,... |
