140 BPM
exhale to breathe
white light
red eyes
feeding / feeling
...............it ALL
I stumble and....
thaw
flawed and raw
floored by
gravity's law
lost between space
somewhere......
thoughts won't go
at least......
they shouldn't
not in this place
not at such a pace
that beautiful face
keeping me bound
weight me down
<please>
hold me down
I kiss the ground
at your feet
I am
f a l l i n g ........
I do,
I flail and I fall 'til
The black bottoms through
Suspend in your call while
The Earth makes its rounds
And it opens
Bound at the base
But it flowers
A slow pry to a pop
In scarlets, in violets
All amber in hue
There is you
Wading in rhythms
That I never knew
Riding on riddles
That should never exist
Cradled taught in your fist
I play safe
In your fingers
I kiss the ground
At your feet
I am
f a l l i n g...........

180 BPM
remember?
I dreamt you....
what sweet hell!
water
theres always water
a trickle etched
a half baked sketch
my mongrel masterpiece
of longing
from decay
it wasn't the dream
but the waking
lucidly shaking
in (meta) boots....
of rusted dead roots
the crippling
penance of years
now
breaking away
to dig this tree
I kiss the ground
at your feet
I am
f a l l i n g........
I do,
I remember the sound of your
Heart as it cracked
Under pressure
The static reining of voices
Erasing the fissure
A hard mend was our ferry
To prod us through
And I knew
In an instant
I knew it was you
I had waited
So I kneeled to the distance
A heed in its cue
I pulled stops
Peeled the plaster
Shredding cords to a master
And I watched as you splattered
For this
Splinter frayed edges
Pry fixtures
No more treats for the tricks
Shift your salt through an
Air wave
As you fell into flew
Onto me
Thank you
I kiss the ground
At your feet
I am
f a l l i n g.........

----- --- -- -
your history
a page upon mine
into the carbon
of friendly fire
<pfft>
we claim the pyre
perhaps our flame
will mark our time
back to element
we find
our way
dancing as cinders
together alone
together as one
together in always
to the very end of things
where breath
returns to air
and life
returns as grace
to rest in that place
I kiss the ground
at your feet
I am
f a l l i n g...........
I do
Too
I won't catch you
We weren't made for a count
A fire built to braise numbers
Fasten time to a tilt
I will
Fall
With
You
Meld right into your wind
A surrender
My hook looping your skin
Anti-clockwise we'll fail
Twisting backward
For presence
For half-taken tocks
Ticking twice on the kisses
Crush these overturned rocks
Until everything
Stops
And our soul is left
Weightless
And our stitches give in
To our beating
To our One
Now not torn from within
We kiss the ground
At our feet
We have
fallen..........
