Array ( [sid] => 164968 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => White picket hell [time] => 2011-02-25 02:31:50 [hometext] => time tells me secrets.. well, sometimes [bodytext] => The moon died sometime while the world's people slept
I watched her fall, but didn't have my watch
so I can't say for sure.. the time of death
I'm guessing it was close to seventeen after eleven
or maybe it was seven till today? i don't know
It doesn't really matter.. No one's grieving but me..

I guess i shouldn't beat myself up over it
not too bad at least..
maybe just a few drags through the garden of handguns..
and a graveyard reservation..

I picked a flower
looked like a lily..
but felt like a six-shooter..
so i either pulled the trigger
or plucked a petal..
and continued..
until i was out of ammunition
or until the flower was out of simple separation..

Then i started to question
where i fit into the equation..

I could live inside that thought for the remainder of my stay.. so lets move on.. shall we?

on man's wonder is another dysfunctional prayer..

What is the danger in misunderstanding his intentions?
Is it difficult to register the target of his weapons?
I am not the one.. but what does he see?
how will he feel with it pointed at me? or afterw0rd?
hopefully he shoots
the world
a smile
on his way down the isle ..
as the flower girl of my funeral..

I've already seen the end..
of time
and time again..
but we gotta stay in character..
preparing for twists..
and turning (into) ourselves (in) again..
well.. one of them
of us..

Just promise me something..
make it the cover
or hide it in HUSH..
because i want all or nothing..
and i've had just about enough
of nothing..

Don't worry about the moon
she'll come back to all of you
and don't worry about me either..
i'll get whats coming to me
probably sooner rather than later..

Who am I trying to tell..
and what's the ***** point?
I'm just playing the patient
the cross-eyed wig of satan..
and when the lynch
is ready
one of he will write the ending.. [comments] => 3 [counter] => 179 [topic] => 71 [informant] => deadson [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 9 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => secrets )

better than nothing right? at least you could honestly say at one point it was exactly how you wanted...and it must have felt good. sense of control, is it really liberating? i think lack of magnifies and heightens the beauty of things... it doesn't matter who writes the end.. it will come whether you're ready or not.
